Labrador Retriever Dogs Blog

I have had a few computer issues as of late and apologize for being slow on blog updates. My desktop caught a terrible virus but I was able to fix it after a lot of work. We do have a notebook which is a bit older and is dire need of some extra notebook memory.

This is also the time of year when Cooper and I find ourselves outside getting yardwork done and enjoying the nice weather. It's finally so nice to be outside and getting some much need yardwork done. Cooper is really enjoying the sunny weather and there is dog hair everywhere.

I promise to take some pictures and post them. I finally figured out how to work my cell phone camera.

Do you get as overwhelmed with dog hair as we do in our house? It seems our chocolate labrador retriever Cooper is in a state of constant shedding. He loses so much hair that I was afraid I was going to have to get him some type of hair loss solution but it hasn't come to that as of yet.

I have a few tips on how to better handle dog hair and shedding. The first it to stay on top of it. As simple as that. Just get yourself into a routine of cleaning it up everyday and pretty soon you just won't notice it. If you don't stay on top of sweeping or cleaning it can and will take over your house. Which leads me to my next point, invest in a good vacuum or sweaper (depending if you have carpets or hardwood). If you cheap out on a vacuum clean that won't or can't properly handle dog hair then you aren't helping yourself. Finally, make sure you do lots of brushings outdoors in a room where you can clean things up. A well groomed dog won't be dropping as much hair all over your house and you will find your dog will like to be brushed.
