April has been the month of shedding. Shedding, shedding, shedding. Mochi shed quite a bit the first couple of times we visited him in the shelter, but it pretty much slowed to a few hairs here and there once he was living comfortably at home. Then came April.
Who would think a 12 lb. dog could have so much hair? Or more precisely, lose so much hair. It's everywhere! He gets up off the couch and there's a mini-Mochi pile left behind. I could have made a life-size model of Mochi from the hair trapped in the vacuum's debris container. Come on...how is he not bald by now? Seriously.
At least Mommy is not the #1 offender when it comes to hair in the house now...
Is this "blowing his coat" ever going to end? Any advice on containing the mess?

You need to brush him with a shedding blade. Look on the web for "shedding blade" to see what I mean... some are large, but some are small circles on a handle intended for small animals. We have one for the cats that looks like a large magnifying glass.
I know these don't look impressive, but they are AMAZING at helping to remove loose undercoat-hairs, leaving the top coat glossy and much less hair to be shed all over the house.
Ah, thanks for the tip! And here I was considering getting a Suck-Kut. :)
