If you are doubting whether she can climb up straight up a fence(even if twice her height or more)-- she has no problems climbing things. The fence would have to a solid piece like a piece of wood-- because the holes/gap in the fence giver her the grip she needs to climb-- and if she can't climb it she tries to topple it by ramming into it. She's oddly smart, the other dog is more obedient with that as she doesnt touch the fence and seems to fear it a bit.(or respect it).
A barrier for her is just another game.
As for singing- I'd feel silly so all I do is just talk to her while I bathe her. I make sure to leave the shampoo on for 4-5 minutes as the instructions say.
Today we were doing BBQ and I decided to groom my dog by plucking out the dead hairs (I saw a video on how to do it and I do it well enough that I dont actually pluck out the regular hairs out).
You can tell which are dead because they feel more wire-y and hard. I found a ton near her butt area (like on top of her back- but more near the rear end) she has a ton of dead hair. I do this in portions because its just a lot. She wasn't properly groomed when she was given to me I suspect because after I take some of the hairs out-- dandruff follows. Tons of dandruff. Butt dandruff.
I am thinking of getting that expensive 50 dollar comb next month- it's super thin and they showed how it works It's called the de-shedder or something... |
Dead hair will normally fall off and can be combed off. I don't think plucking the hair is going to feel good to her.
