3 dogs here. We vacuum daily. Keep dogs groomed weekly. Bring dogs to groomers ever 1 to 2 months depending on the dog. Put it this way, you better love animals b/c it's half the work of a child.
Good thing I gave up making fun of people on the internet for Lent.

So I assume you believe infants should sleep outside?

the thing is, it is hard to have a dog stop an intruder from breaking into your house when he is locked in the back yard.

I really have no idea how it happened, but we paid for a genetic test out of sheer curiosity.

You assume wrong. How does my belief structure about dogs and their capability to build something correlate to infants?

Did I say that my beliefs about dogs correlate to any other creature as a matter of fact?

To the other guy, my Grandmother is one woman I've seen build a house. By herself she poured the slab and built a duplex next to their home and 2 story playhouses for my sister and our cousin.

The point I was making is that dogs are just fine outside and have no business inside a home. They tend to mess them up as evidenced by this thread.

My dogs have never done anything even remotely close to what my girls have done to the house.

-Furmanator on Amazon. (don't buy at Petsmart, also get the right one for your dogs hair length)
-Up the fish oil intake
-Brush and Furmanate a couple times a week
-Don't over bathe them. That dries skin and actually worsens shedding in the long run. They are meant to be oily creatures.
-Exercise more. Its good for circulation and strengthens the skin. (as does regular brushing)


It really helps. Also, I know it sounds douchey, but vacuum more or get a Roomba/Neato set to run everyday.

There is no magic cure.

Feed her raw. She'll lose a LOT less fur(proven with my Corgi), won't smell and will be a lot healthier.

Really does wonders for them, but its hard to do and more expensive unless you're in close with a butcher

Now that I've read your thoughts, I will begin leaving my dog outside from here on out.

Neato xv-21 is better than a roomba and cheaper. See the thread from a few weeks back, had mine a few weeks and love it.
