Wow! That's a lot of work. Have you ever kept a cotton coated dog in a longer coat? I'm started to dread Sept. I already promised my mom I would let Kaji's hair grow out and now I'm wishing I didn't. He tolerates daily brushing, but he loves having no hair to brush. He can nap without being interrupted.
