 This was our last dog, he was big, sweet and a walking hairball :), I doubt we'll ever get all of his fur out of the house. We saw the truck that dropped him off as a pup roar away. Dropped him off right before a snowstorm, some people >:(. Our gun shy black and tan, who had apparently failed hunting training, ran down and brought him back up to the house.

I don't think Jasmine will be too bad for shedding. Michelle was home today so they had a good time working in the garden and walking around. I'm still too much for her if standing but we're good if I'm laying on the floor, even more so if I have some treats :D.

This Mitzi, the dog, and Gracie Kate, the cat.  The other dog, Dixie, and two ther cats are somewhere else in the house.  Dog hair and cat hair are a way of life here.  The robot vacuum runs daily and we vacuum with the regular vacuum once a week.

Well yeah there is a coyote there now that you mention it. She doesn't shed.  It was the first one I harvested and I got it with an Xbow. Coyotes aren't native to NC and I try to reinforce that on the local population frequently.  It is mounted in the position I first saw it chasing a fox squirrel.  At some point I plan to harvest a fox squirrel and complete the scene.

Jasmine is getting ever so slightly more comfortable around me, looks like its been about 12 days so still early. We are fine with me laying on the floor so the back of my sweatshirt is furry. If I am upright she bolts and paces to avoid me. She is fine with Michelle, they can run around and play easily, except no sticks. She is the same around most guys, her previous owner must have been a piece of work.  Very sweet, she's just going to take some time. She did get into a little mischief this week, Michelle brought home a fresh loaf of bread a friend had made. She set it on the counter and went upstairs for a minute, oh yeah :D. Can't blame her, I've had Abby's bread many times musteat_1

non shedding dogs is a wonderful experience.  Ours have been rescues but I could not go back to shedding dogs.  In fact our largest is not really a non shedding -it is a komondor so the hair forms dreadlocks we just shave off once or twice a year.  The little one is a 18 year old mutt that is part bichon and has never shed at all.  We don't have hair anywhere but a few clumps from the komondor, too heavy to float around and easy to vac up.

I became a dog owner for the first time last April.  Miss Gigi sheds all over the house and barn.  The missus uses a Dyson V11 Torque Drive to vacuum and pick up the hair.  She has to show me every time how much hair she collected.  I keep telling her to save it and we can make a new mattress.  :D




 

After having her now for nearly a year, I wouldn't have it any other way.  She is a great companion.

great! now they prob. will not let me buy beer at the liquor store!!! :D :D :D my wife says the same and that it takes off about 30 pounds, so I still have about 30 pounds to go!  my wife has never cared much for my beard, but have had one every year since 1980.  mid October till about Jan. 1.  until my son was doing winter camping in boy scouts, and I thought, "why am I shaving this thing off now, it is still cold."  but I got a little early start this year and I am usually ready to shave about now.  I like the Brad Paisley song, I'm gonna miss her!

you are sure being nice @sawguy21  , I figured you would comment on me having less hair!   :) :)  I went and had Frank trim the hair on the top and sides so it would all match after loosing the beard!
