I am a new husky mommy and i see people talking about get there huskys blown out?
what is that and what does it do?
Thank you

A couple of times a year (sometimes more depending on the dog) they will blow their coat, meaning that the undercoat is shed. In the case of my pups, I can literally pull large clumps/tufts of their undercoat off of them. When your puppy starts, you'll know... You can do a Google search for 'coat blow' and get answers on why dogs blow their coat.

to get a husky blown out is when they start blowing their coat like kim said, people will use a high velocity dryer that literately blows the lose fur off the husky or any other dog. they are also great to dry the coat after bathing. there is a thread on that if you search for it.

You know when you watch a western and a cowboy rolls into town and the tumbleweeds blow by.?
Well replace the cowboy with you, the town with your living room and the tumbleweeds with balls of fur XD

Very true!

Perfect description!

Usually when people get their huskies blown out or blow them out... It's usually a deep blow drying with a high velocity dryer. Which literally blows the undercoat that's shedding-out. When huskies blow their coat... They are doing a big dump of undercoat. Usually it happens twice a year.

After you use your high velocity dryer or brush out all of the undercoat do you just collect it all in a pile and throw it away, do you brush him outside and let the hair fly away? There is so much hair its crazy!!

im rude, i brush them out side and let it hang in the yard or blow away to other yards. we only use the blower when we do the self wash and then i try to clean it up some what.....
