Do NOT underestimate the coat blowing power of these dogs

This is my guy, after a good brush and a bath getting dried - the poor woman is wearing a mask so she doesn't eat the hair and my poor OH - bless him hes the same colour as the dog

How funny! My Spitzes used to have the same triple coat, it took ages just to get them wet!

My Dad has one. He comes over to walk my dogs if I have a long shift at work. I always know when he's been a long white hairs everywhere. No matter how much he brushes that dog the hair just seems to be never ending!!

Never, ever even sllightly consider a Mally for a pet - I have two and they are demons in every way

And yes, they shed everywhere (more than my samoyed!)

We just attacked him with the Furminator - filled a carrier bag with hair and then some He looks much better though and it always helps get rid of the worst of the hair - he looked obese yesterday - now he looks like he lost 2 stone overnight lol
