How appropo!
I can't BELIEVE how Mz Klo is shedding! She does a nice job of it usually, but recently, I've had to brush her 2x a day instead of 2-3x a week. I vacuum at 1p and by 3p you'd never know.

I thought it was heat related. It's been wicked here. She hasn't wanted to go outside and stalk for critters at all. And although she gets her monthly dose of K9Advantage, she's been scratching too. Her skin doesn't appear dry, she gets vitamins and oil in her food.

Of course, I've been out most of the day for the last 2 months, taking care of an elderly relative. She never reacted before..it gives her a chance to spend a lot of time on the Big Bed which she loves.

Maybe I do need to modify my schedule to spend more time with her, since she's used to me being home more often. Thanks for the suggestion.
