Two things and a Monday Dog

I hear “Doodles don’t shed” or some version thereof a lot in the day job. Doodle refers to a Golden Doodle (Golden Retriever X Standard Poodle), a Labradoodle (Lab X Poodle) or an Aussie-doodle (Australian Shepherd X Poodle). They’re very often sold on their “hypoallergenic” feature.

Oh really?

 

Also I’d like to take a moment to remind people to brush your dog. Short haired dogs benefit for the attention and it helps with shedding. Longer haired dogs, well…

Yeah, that is all one piece and wasn’t all of the matts. Brush your dog. It’s better to fight them a bit at the beginning until they get used to being brushed than have to fight them to shave this off then face the grooming and vet bills if there’s nasty surprises underneath.

And now, have a happy dog.
