[quote=Anonymous]We got a 3 yo black retriever mix from Lucky Dog Rescue last month and he's absolutely fabulous. He's a great fit with our family and we couldn't ask for a better first family dog. For those of you with retriever/labs, can you tell me, do they always shed this much? I'm not a neat freak by any means (and with 3 youngish kids I'd go insane if I were) but I'm vaccuming tons of hair every day. We have a Furminator we use on him once a week and a slicker brush we used at least every other day (he's brushed outside). We've already emptied the central vac canister twice because it was full of dog hair. His coat looks really good (mix of long and short hair), he's got some dandruff but gets a good quality dog food and we've bathed him twice with dog shampoo. Would having him professionally groomed make a difference? Is this just the way of the retriever mixes? Thanks! [/quote]
