Sorry; me again. Forget this. Samualjcat: I have a shep/husky too! Her name is Cody. What's your guys' name? I think these guys take the award for biggest shedders! Those hugh "qtip" things that pop out from the undercoat!!!? Ah! I'll try your suggestion re: curry comb. And Karen, send me the fur; I can spin and weave the dog hair for you!
