LOL....that picture of him in the snow! That is exactly what Bodhi looks like when he comes in!
I have to say, Bodhi really doesn't shed much. Of course, we also have a Dalmatian....a nd next to a Dalmatian, any other shedding seems mild, lol. Dals shed year-round and their short wiry hair doesn't just stick to your clothing, it weaves it's way into the fabric...it's a nightmare!
When I was researching Newfies, I read all kinds of warnings about how much grooming they required...but for some reason I find brushing dogs with that undercoat to be immensely satisfying, lol. I really feel like I am accomplishing something when I get out all that fuzz....so I enjoy brushing Bodhi! I just wish he would be more cooperative... .he is all about trying to chew on the brush and my arm while I'm doing it. I have to give him a peanut butter Kong to get anything done!
