[Dailydrool] shedding

Dear Daily Drool Folks,
I am wondering why Daisy isn't shedding much at all, having read the last  
volume of DD and noticing the amount of letters about it, i am puzzled.   i give 
her a bath once a week or every 10 days with shampoo i buy from the  vet, it 
has a lasting fragrance and is good for her skin. i brushed her today  after 
she dried off in the sun and even brushing backwards produced very little  fur. 
it doesn't show up in the house either. she is only 6 months old so maybe  
she has puppy fur, i dont know. it isn't that i am complaining but it is a  
little unnerving to read about all the dogs shedding so much and she doesn't  
produce any at all to speak of. 
 
i also need to know what kind of coat she is going to have in winter here  in 
Colorado. i would appreciate some heads up on the folks who live in cold  
climates. she will not be outdoors much, she is very good in the house and we  
are working out the kinks of excess energy etc while she is in the house in the  
hottest parts of the day. but i would like to walk her in the winter, i can 
buy  her new sweaters and all of that but how much does nature provide for 
Bassets in  winter ?  she likes being in the back yard, lying in the shade and 
doesnt  always want to come in during the day but i don't leave her out there  
anyway.  we have had some big claps of thunder and some rain the last few  
weeks. she does not acknowledge thunder at all, even the huge claps that startle  
me! she seems to like the rain as well, will play by herself with her toys  
unless it is truly pouring. i call her in but she likes it out there! strange to  
me, is it to you folks? 
 
thank you for all i learn on DD each day, the folks that put it online for  
us are very kind to do so, it must be alot of work. 
Sue/Daisy/ Colorado
