How much does a DS shed? I’ve been brushing this bitch out for 3 days in a row at about 15 minutes each time and cleaning the brush out as I go. Hours later she shakes and the fur is still flying. Lol. Im covered in it right now.
I’m I right about them having a twice a year shedding “season”? Next time I’m saving this fluff and weighing it for fun.
:pint:

Don't complain. I just spent two hours brushing out dingleberries from Aurora's butt & tail. Ended up cutting most of the hair away. It knots up so quickly. And she sheds long hair year round. Not just a little guard hair...but full on blows coat. I think she has a hormone issue.

Any bald patches? Hopefully she is just a shedder and doesn’t have issues. Is she still intact or spayed? Just curious.
Eww the dingleberris. My maltipoo gets those if I don’t keep him shaved.

I'm pretty sure it's something genetic. She's got some autoimmune issues.
