Do you mind shedding?

**Tollers-n-Dobes** · 12-30-2005, 12:32 AM

Just another random poll....

For me, it depends on the dog and what sort of coat it has. I don't mind shedding when it comes to long coated breeds, I hardly notice it actually. I don't like shedding when it comes to short coated breeds because it seems to weave into absolutley everything and doesn't come out easily.

well now that we have a black dog and a white dog, then it really doesn't matter because I am never going to go anywhere without my dog or cats on me!!!

Agh! I wasn't watching what I was doing and I voted for the wrong one. I meant to vote for No.
I suppose it doesn't bother me because my mum is one of those cleaning-obsessed people who insists on the furniture and floors to ALL be vacuumed every day.

And I always have a lint-roller handy.

No meal or wardrobe is complete without pet hair.

Mind shedding? Look at the benefits. I can get clothing made out of one of my dogs...scarf by Corinna and Mandy...

Autumn's hair is everywhere! I clean and vacuum and brush and brush. If I were in my own house where my stepdad didn't freak out over hair I'd be less worried, but I still don't like tumbleweeds of hair blowing across the floor.
*There's a dog hair floating in my glass of mountain dew right now. I'm still drinking it mind you, but when it gets to a point where I can reach it I'll fish it out.

how you made the scarf chocolate puppy??? how cool

i could say i mind but with huskies that would be hypocrit

so i just have a lint roller as well

i could make pillows out of the hair

**Miss Z** · 12-30-2005, 12:33 PM

I voted depends what kind of coat. Zsa-Zsa's fur is OK, it's fine and soft and dead easy to clean up when it's on furniture. But Tia's is stiff and short and sharp, and it sticks all over your hands. Once i rubbed my eye and there was some of her fur on my finger, god that stung for a while

I don't think Foxy moults so she's not a problem.

Husky_ mom, Corinna made the scarf out of Mandys fur.

To answer the question I spin on a spinning wheel then it was Knitted for her. I kind of like shedding especally with my 2 goofy newfys.
These produced this and this became this now I'm knitting myself a coat lenght sweater.

**Husky_mom** · 12-30-2005, 12:56 PM

**Corinna** · 12-30-2005, 01:01 PM

If you got to the market place I have a little thing in there. I have started getting a little business enough to pay for some new things I need for my warn out tools for spinning.

**lv4dogs** · 12-30-2005, 02:03 PM

I don't like shedding but I'm so used to it and I know I couldn't live without pets so I've learned to deal with it.

I'd rather have long dog hair everywhere than short, as said before short hair is just too hard to get off of fabrics & the such.

**sandragonfly** · 12-30-2005, 03:43 PM

ditto leahmm!

with so many animals for many years, can't imagine living without a hair. really, I don't mind at all, sometimes I saw a tiny hair in my food, I shrug and eat!

*I swear*.

I also go out with black clothes proudly with whitefurs all over.

how cute you say it, chocolate puppy.

I absolutely agree - see mine too! I wouldn't complain.

**Suki Wingy** · 12-30-2005, 04:15 PM

Well, I started with a dal and now I have a dog with 1 inch wirey hair that sheds like a dal so no, I don't mind. I have aquired a large ammount of heather grey clothing!
