Today I had an elderly, heavily shedding medium size dog (Australian Shepherd size). The old girl objects rather strongly to being brushed-likely because of the fairly large skin tags scattered throughout her body. I love the Jodi Murphy method of shedding them out in the tub, but brushing just stressed her out. I remembered reading here that some of you hv while in the tub. Tried but wasn't very successful. Ended up just letting the hair fly while drying. And died a little inside because she was still shedding when I sent her out the door, but she had had enough for one day and was willing to bite to prove it.
But back to the tub...I use a recirc, Best Shot products, Hanvey dryer. I saw the sav ur fur post and video; that would have been perfect (if I owned one). Am I expecting too much of the wet hv process? (I want ALL the shedding hair gone.) Just doing it all wrong? Wrong equipment? What nozzle do you use? Do you need to hv a bit before getting them wet? Is heavy lather like you get from hand applying the shampoo an important ingredient for success?
Ok. I will stop asking questions and listen.
