  1. Those folks were wimps. We used to have a Great Pyrenees.
    You haven’t seen dog hair until you’ve had one of those.
    Birds’ nests for miles around were made with white Pyr hair.
    In the summer, Panda would go downstairs to the coolest place she could find and barely ever come upstairs.
    In the winter, she would lie on the picnic table and let it snow on her. Someplace I’ve got a picture of her on the picnic table and all you can see is a snowy pile with a black nose sticking out.

    I’m dogless now and I think that’ll change.

  2. Two Goldens are enough for me. And I’m allergic to dog dander. When I was a little thing, my grandfather had a huge German Shepard that loved to maul me and I would sometimes have an asthma issue. But hey, if I let my allergies rule me, I’d be a spineless wimp. What did somebody say about what doesn’t kill me…?

  3. I found the greatest thing at the $100 Store about 15 years ago. It is a strip of plastic with slices cut into it. You jab it into a drain, then like magic you got a squirrel pelt covered in toothpaste and phlegm.

    I like to leave the dream catchers I find laying in the draining device, what for to offend the offenders.

  4. I have a mix Burmese Mountain dog and Border Collie. Has best features of both. Burmese body, Collie short legs. face of both. Very frisky and playful with none of the barking from the Collie. Long and short hair and boy when it’s shedding time, well, that goes on for the longest time but she’s a great animal thus far after a year from the rescue.

  5. I had a Husky once. In the summer months I could fill a paper shopping bag with hair every day.
    A great dog, loved to run. Chewed through a chain link fence, twice, ran 40 miles in the other direction both times just for the heck of it. The Sheriff Dept would call from the next county and say,
    “your dog is on the loose again, come and get it.”

  6. If you want a shedless and low allergy dog, consider the poodle (standard size, not the high strung minis), or the schnauzer, either standard or mini. They have HAIR, not fur,
    We have a miniature schnauzer, smart and gentle dog.

  7. Hey Mr Mxyzptlk, I concur with all you say about the noble Pyrenees. Mine died 26 years ago in December. I’m not sure, but I think we no longer have his hair on every single thing we own.

  8. Lazlo has had Husky and Malamute wolf mixes.
    I started filling an old stuff sack with the hair.
    Soon I had two sacks full of hair
    I monetized it by advertising Wolf Hair Sachets for garden protection.
    Apparently it keeps the Peccaries (wild pigs) and gophers out of your garden.
    I jammed a bunch of hair into little cloth sacks (like the Bull Durham tobacco pouches) and sold it like it was going out of style.
    People in Sedona will buy anything.
    These days Lazlo enjoys the company of Angus, the Aussie Shepard.
    I like him way more than most humans.
