Our puppy Casey at 8 months of age has yet to blow his coat and weighing in
at 100 lbs. I can assure you that he is carrying at least 5 lbs. of excess
fur in addition to the fur already blowing around my shop. This bloody slow
shedding has reached the point where there is a fair chance I could succumb
to hair balls if something doesn't happen soon. Summer is here boy, Get With
It!!
In the past we have spun Malamute fur into yarn and knitted gloves but has
anyone ever heard of using Malamute fur in a comforter versus duck down? One
would have a fur tick versus a feather tick. Hey I'm serious here!!!
Casey just started cocking his leg which would indicate that he is no longer
a puppy but has reached or is approaching the realm of maturity. Almost time
for his Pupmitzvah. Picking out a suitable present will be easy sayeth my
DW, just get *her half of Casey* a nice big beef bone and get *my half of
Casey* some new chew toys, like a stair case, back door, house coat, shower
cap, a few fence posts or some new cedar trees in the yard to replace the
shredded ones.

A friend did that and the fur was lovely but it smelled doggy in damp
weather !
I have just had to renew my bedding. I had a nasty cough and twice
people asked "Do you have a goosedown duvet?" on the third ask, I
changed it out to fibre fill and jettisoned the feather pillows. Cough
has almost gone now.
Just a thought.

I'm with you - down needs regular cleaning and a specialized cleaning at
that. (I know Sheena knows this already and takes great care with her
duvets.)

I think he should... And Casey should get lots of chew toys.

Hello. The rctq group is quiet this morning so I thought I'd drop in here
to see what was going on.

For a special treat, may I recommend a nice collection of Southern Living
Cookbooks? Our Yorkie puppy chewed his way through 20 volumes and
apparently found them very well-seasoned. The 1982 edition was a special
favorite. Polly
