Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information.

I would like to see pics of people huskies after a little de-shedding session. Well today was kiaras biggest shed yet, I could have gone all day... This is how it went....
Video:

Right after... "I am not pleased with you."
All groomed
Happy girl

We haven't had a shed like that yet! LOL Snow has a very sleek coat...so I got lucky with that...but we are now 3 days in to having Finnick and within these few days I've had more hair come off him than what i have had in four months of having her.
On a side note...is the pool too dirty to just jump in and rise off in there? haha just sleep on a float...thats what I do!

Haha aww It's getting ready to storm here really bad....hopefully it cools down some afterwards. It's miserable out right now. How often do you brush her when she's shedding like that?

Well I am going to do it again tomorrow. Since I'm a slacker I brushed her for like 45 min today. I'll so less time tomorrow since I got a TON off, I wish I took a before picture. Once I have her a bath last night is when it really started falling out.

We used to have Phantom bathed at Petsmart and occasionally get the "furminator treatment" (where they brush her with a furminator for like 30 mins). The first time they did this, they shaped all her fur into the shape of a sleeping dog (complete with a collar) on a grooming table. The fur-dog was bigger than her! It was pretty funny and I wish we took a picture... but it was pretty creepy looking too.
