She's a Big Girl Now!

I really feel bad that I missed last week's DoT. There was a real nice write up about Nicki's Border Collie pack. She has some great dogs that are Champions at what they do!
Then with me not really having too many new pictures again. We have just been going crazy here doing other things. Replacing different car parts then the ones we did already, toilet tanks bolts leaking, almost got a shower I didn't want this morning and sure glad the towels weren't too far away..lol You know how those "comes in 3's" go...lol is January over with yet...lol
anyways..I thought I'd wait for today to share that our little Coco is a Big Girl now..poor thing has been in heat and doesn't understand why Lady doesn't want to be humped..lol and here I thought only male dogs did that. Lady has been a real good sport about it too, she just gets up and moves away. Then Coco goes and pouts a bit like here..
She is getting big...its not a problem anymore with her jumping on our bed to claim her spot. Then we have poor Lady shedding so bad she looks strange. With this crazy weather her fur must thinks it time to shed and we just got colder again. I hope to get her more brushed out alittle more even so she doesn't looks so bad, high and low spots and always a bundle to reach and pull out as she goes by. I really should save this , I could have made a couple more dogs by now..lol No safe place in the house at all from furballs, they are just everywhere! Gosh she sat next to me the other night and started scratching and I had to have Rob get me the vacuum cleaner, we were surrounded with fur...lol We have turned off the ceiling fans otherwise it looks like tumbleweeds rolling around..lol
Hope that you'll stop by and read about some of the other DoT posts, you'll find quite a few interesting blogs to read. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!

Poor Coco! I hate that - which reminds me, I wanted to call and see if we could move Gretchen's spay surgery up... She's not in heat, but is doing the humping thing some too...

Tsar is part Husky and I sure know what you mean about the shedding. When he gets up he leaves clumps behind. We call them 'Tsar's mice'. They're about the size of a mouse and all black. He hates to be brushed and screams when I do it.

Fans are not a good thing around here either. Cat's hair goes flying everywhere also.
Your fur babies are beautiful.

Save the hair!!! You can have it spun into yarn. I've been saving fur for 5 years now. I have enough to have spun but keep saving until I'm ready to do something with it.
A Furminator is GREAT! for the shedding. I was skeptical at first and feared it would damage the hair but it doesn't. The first time you use it takes a while. After that it's a snap. Yields lots of fur.
ps. Amazon had them the cheapest.

Poor Coco, sure is a pretty thing though! She still looks pretty small for a Chow, that's a good thing! My Aunt had one once that looked like a really fuzzy pony! LOL
Hope you guys are all doing good! Love ya!
