Lovely thread....thanks for sharing your beautiful pics. everyone. We have a beautiful malamute x boy called Lucatoni...he has a glorious shine to his coat, never smells "doggy" even when damp and shedding....well...he lines up for a vacuum every day, so we can live with that. He is also the most talkative and protective dog we have ever had.....great mates with my little rescue chi x Topo.
