    I would love to have one too, but they are like 500 dollars. What model did you get?

    Pics

    Jackmilliesmom- Mine is a short-haired too and she sheds more than my bf's wire-haired JRT. My vet gave me stuff to put in her food and it has not helped at all. Thank you so much for the advice. I will try some baby oil- I try using the lint brush on her too. She loves it, but it doesn't help too much. Attached is a fairly recent picture of her- I adopted her from a rescue. She is the love of my life- very calm (unlike most JRTs) and loves having her belly rubbed.

    What about adding Linatone to her food. Its a supplement that is a dog oil based product, and pretty good. You can get it at petsmart. http://www.petsmart.com/global/produ...N=2026157&Ne=2

    Something else that will help is to brush her often. I use a Zoom Groom brush, rubber brushes work really well on short hair dogs. I always brush then outside so the hair doesn't get all over the house.

    Did I mention that I love my Dyson?

    With the amount of Fur that's in my house... ugh... I SHOULD run it everyday, but only get around to it a few times a week.

    Please tell us what vacuum cleaner you REALLY like!

    I swear by my Electrolux. It cleans like a dream but I still have to vacuum 2x a week cause Mz Klo just sheds.

    omg did you notice we ahve the same coloured JRT Jack has more markings but omg they are exactly the same colour white and rust - how long have you had her I bought Jack from a breeder and we have him 2 years now and he is lively but loves to snuggle down at night and especially loves to crawl under my duvet when my husband is away working and sleeps on my feet.

    Millie is my rescue she is in my signature and we have her a year and she just loves to lick you and cuddle she would lick you all over and start again when she had finished she is very affectionate.

    Haha I'm really not sure... I got a newer one, that I can't find a pic of, it's gray and white. It is a DC14 variety but I'm not sure which one. I paid 469.99 for it at Costco. I tried so many different vaccums before finally getting the Dyson. It's been great.

    Thanks Jess for the great sig of my kids!

    Vacuum

    I told my bf that I really want a vacuum cleaner for Christmas. He laughed for a few minutes before realizing that I was dead serious. I am a clean freak and the fur everywhere is killing me. I think I am going to stick with the Dyson Animal because I have only heard good things about it. I have just started brushing Stitch everyday, but am going to try a rubber brush. Thank you everyone for your help. Hopefully I will get that vacuum cleaner for Christmas!

    Same here. I love my Dyson. Wouldn't own anything else
    But with 3 hairy dogs I have to vacuumn at least once and day, and if I don't have any shoes on my socks still get hairy...lol!

    And as for the price, right now at Wal-Mart they have the Dyson Original for only $378.42 I haven't seen it cheaper any where else.

    They do look alike!

    Jackmilliesmom- I did notice that they look almost identical. I love it! Yours is beautiful too. My Stitch is such a loving dog. I fell asleep on the couch last night and she fell asleep next to me on her beanbag chair under her blanket. I got her a little over 2 months ago and cannot imagine my life without her. The vet thinks she is about 15-16 months old. She follows me everywhere I go and loves to snuggle in my bed as well.

    Boy you guys are scaring me. I've never had a dog that shed much. Even with the cat we don't need to vaccuum weekly and their isn't hair everywhere. Our vaccuum cost less than a hundred dollars and it does a fine job for our house. It will be a new experience to have a dog that sheds a lot some day.
