LOL . . . I'll keep that in mind. We considered having him shaved by the vet - having him put under & shaved. There is NO WAY he could be shaved otherwise. He freaked when they put him on the scale to weigh him! So the vet and I discussed it and we're both afraid that he'd have a heart attack, seriously, if they got near him with clippers. But according to her, it only lasts about a month. So I'm going to try this first. He didn't seem to mind it . . . he hates the slicker brush but I used the furminator on him there in the office and it didn't seem to bother him. I think those slicker brushes hurt . . . seems like they would!

edit: I just realized that we have to give him 3 preds at one time/day this week . . . oh joy. I guess it's because they're only 5mg each. I thought it was going to be hard enough to get one down his neck . . . now I'm realizing that I'm going to have to do it 3 times in a row! Maybe I can just stick them in his food.
