.....Shedding. Ahhh....My boys are shedding machines!!!! I am brushing with rubber brush, wiping them down with dry towels, Im giving fish oil, Im bathing less, theyre on good food. What am I doing wrong?? Does everyone elses dogs shed like this?! When I crate them at night, there is a layer of hair surrounding their crates in the morning that I have to sweep up. I wash their bedding every 3 days or so. I vaccum daily, and sweep 150 times daily. I use lint rollers on my couch because if they sit beside the couch and lean on it or touch it, it instantly has a coat of dog hair on it. WTH? lol. I keep telling them they are going to go bald but they dont seem to care. Im afraid its something IM doing because both dogs shed like this. Capone probably a little more than Bola but both are pretty extreme. Is this normal? Does your dog(s) shed like this?!

Do you notice it runs in cycles? Is their fur nice otherwise?
This is the time of year a lot of dogs are shedding (well, usually they are starting to finish up). Luca was shedding like CRAZY at the end of the summer, he's finally slowing down now.

Saxon doesn't shed unless I pet him vigorously. Sorry I'm no help!

With six dogs, including a Klee Kai and a Husky Mix, we have two seasons: tumbleweed season and avalanche season ...

Chubby is currently shedding like he is getting paid for it!
I've found a combo of using the Furminator & a Zoom Groom brush seem to help a little

They shed a good amount all the time. But right now it is extra....and I mean extra. I'm going to have to get that brush Sugar!! Is there any thing I can do to make they're shedding less??
