The rest of us are not too fond of it. But our late brother, Java, would let Mom vacuum him - that really kept the hair down.<br /><br />Has your Mom tried "Cowboy Magic" or even Alberto VO5. A little goes a long way and it helps with the detangling process.<br /><br />XOXO<br />Lilly, Piper, Carrleigh and RuairiRocky Creek Scotties and Rocky Creek Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05358992951185911832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5973529800079249935.post-360865795948427882010-08-08T06:41:34.997-05:002010-08-08T06:41:34.997-05:00Now Stella, you know how important good grooming i...Now Stella, you know how important good grooming is, especially for you gals. You don't want to go around looking all matted and frumpy, do you? Admittedly it is a struggle, but you need to be patient. <br /><br />Poor mom. She is just trying to help you be your best. You know, if you would hold still it would all be over and she wouldn't have to do a little every day.<br /><br />I do think the ham is a good idea, but maybe also don't groom until you run away. Try to keep it shorter.<br /><br />I fear that if you do not work this out that your mom will have to shave you! Not a good look.<br /><br />Slobbers,<br />MangoDexterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09238751458587219022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5973529800079249935.post-70868675990386603352010-08-07T23:04:09.817-05:002010-08-07T23:04:09.817-05:00Stella, I know how you feel.

We long-haired ladies just need more dolling up than our shorter haired compatriots! I know it's not fair, but I loves being brushed - maybe ham isn't your favorite? Would a lint remover work to start with? Oh dear, I'm not much help, am I???

I get over zealous and want to brush until every last shedding hair is out, so thier patience wears thin, but all in all it works ok.<br /><br />Swimming and baths help to loosen/remove hair. More beach time?<br /><br /><br />A little fish oil in the food helps too lessen shedding, too (but maybe not enough that you would notice)Cyndi and Stumpyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15945219976457829612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5973529800079249935.post-52368202894320516362010-08-07T11:59:03.628-05:002010-08-07T11:59:03.628-05:00Stella, has your mom tried one of those glove brus...Stella, has your mom tried one of those glove brushes? It's just like a glove, but somehow all your fur sticks to it. It doesn't feel or look anything like a brush. Our neighbor uses one on her dogs and cat. They all have long fur (and undercoats) and it seems to work well...and you get to feel like you're getting petted, instead of groomed!AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11851263591445841749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5973529800079249935.post-8332458570103780892010-08-07T11:48:43.230-05:002010-08-07T11:48:43.230-05:00We hate the brush too, Stella.
