Alright, fess up! :D Who has it, who doesn't?
And for those thinking "She's really gone off the deep end now!" I'm talking about the -l o n g- hairs between the paw pads. Ex.:

So, who has it and, if you have it, do you keep it or trim it?
(Poll allows for multiple selections.)
Oh lordy, the first thing I did was check out my own toes :eek: :o Then I read "hair between the toes" and went EWWWWW!!! TONYA!!!! :D The cats just do a little but my dogs ALL do. Just ask Mayor Karen about Badgers big ol' fluff ball toes ;)
The only critter in my house that has this is our new addition Rocky. I have already trimmed his. Less muddy footprints!!:D
Sorry - finally got the poll options up and working! :D
Vote away!
I thought you ment us. I'm like "NO! Why do you ask, do most people?" :eek:
Jeny doesn't well, she does, but her fur is so short it doesn't stick out the bottom, but it is there if you pull the toes apart. :p
Ha ha ha...the title of this thread made me giggle.
Only Sergei, my orangie, has the long toe hair. It's so annoyingly cute! I keep it as is...no trimming here! ;)
**hugs**
Happy, Lecky, and Blair have toe hair and I keep it cut, towhair drives me nutty lol
Only Vixen has toe hair and I love it. it is so cute and I love picking and tugging gently on it. hehehehe
Hank and Thunder have it , I can't stand it . To me it seems scruffy and tacky so they both get it trimmed off. It also helps dog (don't know if it applies to cats too) keep friction better on slippery (tile/hardwood) flooring.
If you have a poodle you have toe hair!! It is mandatory that it be clipped (not even a suggestion of a maybe) about once every four weeks. When I first got Ripley you couldn't even see that he had toes. :eek: My kitties fortunately don't have toe hair. Their hair knows when to stop growing. :p
Of my dogs Bitsy has a lot of toe hair and I trim it. Nova also has a little but I don't trim hers. Of my cats only Raisin has toe hair and I don't trim it.
Moo has toe hair and I cannot stand it. I have been keeping them trimmed.
The other three don't have long toe hair.
Tango gets what a refer to as "fuzzy feet", but I guess it's the same as toe hair. I trim it about once every two weeks - in between her toes, and the bottom of her pads. I don't at all like the appearance of fuzzy feet on a dog (especially my own) and trimming them not only makes her look tidier, but also makes it easier to trim nails and prevents her from getting ice balls stuck. I'm the same way with longhaired dogs' ears - I always keep them trimmed and tidy.
Morgan's hair gets a bit long on the bottoms of her pads, so when I trim Tango's, I also trim hers. She doesn't get it in between her toes though.
None of our cats(nor dogs for that matter) have toe hair long enough to stick through.
Though I do believe that if it was on a cat, I probably wouldn't trim it. I think furry kitty paws are cute! n_n And none of the cats go outside, so I wouldn't have to worry about it getting too dirty at all.
my dogs both have short hair so its not an issue :)
CC has it. I like the look of trimmed better, but I've never trimmed his. Don't know why.
Oh yeah, Autumn has the longest hair on her feet. Sticks up in between the webbing and also below inbetween her paw pads. I trim it all the time.
LMAO! I thought, "OMG, that's the grossest topic for a poll I've ever seen!"
No toe hair here - we have all slick coated dogs with no long hairs.
None on the people either! ;)
Yes the dogs get long fur on their feet, but it is kept trimmed. "Fuzzy feet" drive me nuts, I'm rather obsessive about the feet looking neatly trimmed. Plus it helps immensly when cleaning up muddy paws, less fur=less mud.
LOL! LOL!Quote:

They were awful. Now that's another whole topic and I'd better not get started. :p
We call that "Grinch Feet". LOLQuote:

The dogs do not and the only cat that does is Redbud.My orange boy. :)
I've always loved his little fuzzy feet & would never trim it.He's perfect the
way he is. :)
um.... *averts eyes*
Gracie and Beanie have toe hair. I trim it up when I groom them. Charlie doesn't/ He's got short hair.
I had to select most of those options, except for the cat one lol
Lilly has toe hair as shes a trantula lol
Chad is a fur ball to the point that I shave a lot of his body :eek: I blame the italian in him lol Whats funnier, is that I use dog clippers on him hahaha
Shhhh hes sensitive about his hair (reason why I shave it for him).. He is so happy after I shave him.. Shaving his sides is really hard, as hes ticklish, so I have to sit on him & fight with him... Reminds me of shaving some dogs ;) :p :D
I call the fuz on my dogs feet(top side of the toes an bottom) 'slippers' :)
i at first trimmed them just for fun an though he looked more cute slipperless,,
an have been trimming them ever since...
i havent had any cats with slippers before though

why cannot you stand it? I thought they are cute!!
cats, ...hmm, *counting* .. three of my ten cats have hairy paws, and I keep them - I at least still can smack their pink/black toes when they are being too cute.
crayola gets hairy paws but they must be trimmed, aka professional looking service dog. :( oh well. :)
Cassie Cat has toe tufts. I love them!
In college I dated a guy who had toe tufts. I made him depilate them during sandal season.
