Incidentally, my avatar does not shed. :) I send all my groomed fur to a friend of mine that spins it and then weaves or knits it into wonderful things. Don't think it strange. People Wear wool, angora, and alpaca. Sheep, bunnie, goats, and, er, well, alpaca. Just think about snuggling down in an warm kitty cat fur scarf! |
He is beautiful. Exactly the kind of mix my man wants. Seizure alert dogs are amazing.
I have a cat who is part Malamute. I vacuum every day. |
He is magnificent looking.

My he is gorgeous!!! When I had two dogs that shed like the dickens you would always find hair in the house..Both Amy and Sassy would seem to "throw" chunks of hair out. Yes, I would brush them, comb them and was tempted to take the vacuum to them too......but didn't. LOL
Now I have one and there is still lots of hair to contend with..and that is fine...love her to bits. |
we have a husty/wolf, he is the sweetest dog i have had. he thinks our kitties are his babies and gives them baths. they hate it. you will get lots of love from your new best friend. i know i do from mine.

My mom use to always say, the sign of a good dog is how much they shed. Don't ask me where that came from, but she use to always say that, and growing up we had a shepard mix with a collie, excellent dog, and yes he did shed.
Beautiful dog. |
Lucky you....Enjoy!

Great dog!

Yukon King recently had his first medical emergency. OMG! It was as bad as having one of the kids injured. He had a plugged gland and overnight, he had chewed through his own skin! He has recovered very nicely, but I don't think I will ever get over finding him that way first thing in the morning. While King was recovering, I had to give him huge antibiotic capsules. My neighbor gave me a wonderful tip. Make a half sandwich of peanut butter, put the capsule in the sandwich, and give it to him. Easiest way to feed a dog a pill! The only problem is that my dog is now addicted to peanut butter!

He gorgeous. I love German Shepards. I know what you are talking about with the hair. I don't even put my vacuum away because it gets used everyday and more than once on my days off. I have two shedders but love them both to death. I've just recently heard about the siezure alert dogs; there was an episode of the Good Wife that had one. I have a siezure disorder and they are trying to find out what causes mine; I've had 3 over 18 yrs and no real known cause. Good luck with your wonderful new pet.
