What do these do?
She also sheds a ton. I got her before my wife and I got married. She's about ready to get rid of her. She has bad allergies, hair gets all over his blankets if we leave them on the floor. We put one on the couch yesterday before work, come home and she's pulled it off the couch and was just sitting on it like a boss. Hair all over it, had to wash it. I guess having a baby is hard enough, add on a little nuisance like her and it's harder
Also, she is kind of dumb. We put her outside to use the bathroom and run around in the morning and afternoon/evenings. If we're not out there with her, she won't even go pee much less stay out there and play. She immediately follows us back inside. If we force her to stay outside, she might run and pee and come back to the door and scratch like crazy.

Exactly what it sounds like. Gives them a little "nudge" so to speak. It's a legit training method.

I always tell people if you don't want hair in your house don't get a dog or just get a hairless cat.
You can limit the shedding with a weekly brushing with a Furminator. We use it once a week on our Lab and it does wonders.

Sounds like she's either anxious you'll leave her or wants to be around you. My dog is pretty unsettled unless he knows you're just hanging out. Once we settle in to watch tv or something, then he'll go roam around. If we're up and moving he's right there with us.

Weak genetics. Sounds like it isn't the dog you need to get rid of.
