Message-ID: <178@rocksvax.UUCP> Date: Tue, 10-Jul-84 17:01:00 EDT Article-I.D.: rocksvax.178 Posted: Tue Jul 10 17:01:00 1984 Date-Received: Thu, 12-Jul-84 01:22:52 EDT Organization: Xerox Lines: 21 x We have a super female german shepard who has one vice--she starts shedding in April, and continues at an increasing rate until about July, finally tapering off to zero by October. We have tried brushing and combing, but nothing seems to hasten or terminate this process. My question/appeal: Is there any way of getting the shedding over quickly? Is there any way of limiting it? We'd like to take the poor animal out with us more, but have limited tolerance for a car full of dog hair, and great clots of said hair whistling about the car at 55 MPH with the windows down. At least at home she can be put outdoors or confined to a few rooms. thanks in advance, sam
