Oye!!! Will it EVER end...

    A couple of of times after emptying the vacuum (bagless) we have counted dogs to make sure none were vacuumed up.  One lady on one of my golen boards, also with 3 moved her sofa and saw one of her dogs hiding under it.  Only it wan't a real dog, just a "dog hair bunny."  After Hunter died i could not bring myself to vacuum the bedroom for 3 months--I just didn't want to throw his fur away.  You should have seen when I decided I had to--he was in my heart, I didn't have to have his fur in the bedroom. 
     
    By the way, this is Texas and a Texan and everyone knows everuything is bigger (furrier, more fur lost,  fur bunnies,etc) in Texas.  Ha Ha ha.

    I can't imagine 3 GRs or 6 GSD's. Eegads! If you two get lost in all that hair, send out a shout- we will send out the rescue teams! (of they are hairy too, so you might just get lost deeper)

    Dyson all the way! I swear by it. I have the purple Dyson Animal and good god that thing is the best vac ever invented. I have a newf mix that's all newf (by that I mean technically he's a mix, but if you didn't know better you'd think he was just a PB Newf that got shrunk in the dryer [:D] he's only 76lbs) Anyway, a newf fur coat in florida? Holy shedding batman! Two hours after I vacuum, my beige carpet is black again. But that dyson.. wow. I think the only real down side to the dyson is after you use it for the first time you want to bathe with brillo because you can't believe you were living in a house that dirty. LOL
     
    The darn thing has so much suction sometimes I wonder if peoples' tupees are flying off in China while I'm cleaning [;)]

    Getting it up isn't what's driving me quite so mad, it's that it's just ALWAYS there no matter how much I clean.  Knock on wood tho, I think it's FINALLY slowing down!!

    Mack is shedding like the top of an old man's head too.  A few days ago, my daughter ate cookies while sitting on my bed before I had made it, leaving big itchy crumbs.  I hollered at her for not eating at the table, and not brushing the crumbles outa my bed.  Then Mack burrowed into my bed and left tan fur on dark blue flannel sheets.  They came out of the dryer all clean and the lint collector looked like I had washed a dozen new towels.  Then today my son thought it was funny to roll around in my bed after a bath.  He was laughing hysterically as I brought a clean dry diaper to put on him.  I didn't figure out the joke until just now, THE LITTLE TURKEY PEED MY BED!!! So I figured I better have a beer and calm down.  A half a doz gsd's and furry coffee doesn't seem so bad right now.  I don't know how you do it, Glenda.  Jules

    Blue sheds nonstop all year long as well does Mocha. No matter how much brushing you do on the two of them you still have pet hair every where.
     
    I can't vacume any of them because they all hate the vacume. Blue jumps in my arms and if he can't get in my arms he goes hiding on my bed under the covers. Plus if you can vacume him then you have to deal with him trying to bite the hose and you.
     
    You should see the hairballs around this place if we don't vacume at least every two or three days we have more then enough hair to cover three bald dogs. I have hairballs under the middle of my bed the size of a softball. My solution is get furniture that matches the hair color.
     
    Just remember that isn't hair you see it's love! Lots and lots of love.[:D
