[Dailydrool] Giant fur bunnies

[oakrydgebh at q.com]

It happens every year. I can sweep or suck  them all up in the morning  and by the end of the day they're back and I swear they' ve mulitplied just like rabbits do. So out comes the furminators (yes, I have more than one), the kong handheld rubber thingy (it has a name but I can't remember it)  and any other "weapon "I have to combat the spr ing invasion of fur bunnies. Every houndy  gets a good going over and when I'm done they're all snoozing away and I'm worn out. Why isn't the hot tub filled and running? 



I've found it best to take each hound  outside to do this or everything in the house will have under fluffies  clinging to it. I put them up on the grooming table so I don't strain my back quite as much.  I've also found that if I give them each a warm bath  after defluffing them  they will let lose of the rest of their winter woolies more quickly . I really should take a picture of the backyard when I'm done because it looks like a layer of greyish brown fluffy clouds have landed there. The birds love the fluff and hair to line   their nests so they usually  all disappear from the yard within a day or two. Then there was  the task of getting the fl uff off my clothes. That was  a whole lot of work  so I've started wearing a grooming apron or jacket. T hat has saved a lot of time and work. They are made of fabric that the hair and fluff don't stick to like it does to my favortie shirt or sweater.
