...

Katie will be 1 year old in a week and a half on August 5th. My little baby is growing up!!!

When I first got my pomeranian, I had the same problem. One time the vet even saw his poop hanging (eew, i know) from his behind because my hair was still stuck inside. Now my lil Pickles chases Monkey and grabs on to a portion of his hair. When he jumps up in the couch naturally it leaves traces of fur in Pickles' mouth. I found a hairball once and even found Monkey's hair in her poop. yikes!

AHHH Little Bruce does this too! It is funny but it is actually damaging my hair!I have yet to be able to solve the problem any other way but distracting him with something else. I have also found always wearing my hair down helps, because he likes to try to remove rubber bands and clips. I have yet to see the hanging poop, so now I am a little more worried!

Mine just started doing this too...my hair is fairly long and when I lean over to him my hair fall straight into his face...he starts out trying to lick me, then starts biting at hair...I'm just gonna have to keep it up all the time!

I have very long curly hair and when Gus was a puppy he used to chomp on it when I bent over and it hung next to him. More like to play with it but he never ate my hair. I have to sleep with my hair up all the time or I'll wake up with it in my own mouth and everywhere else.

Brutus does this too but only when I play with him. My 4 year old daughter has hair down her back and he and tries to play tug of war with her hair!

maybe what if you kept a rope bone in bed with you and her. don't use it to play so she gets riled up, just something to chew on. i really think that would help. good luck!!

bitter apple-LOL!!!!

Gwen did that when I first got her, and what I finally had to do was put her in the crate for time out everytime she did it. She got the message real quick, and I got some sleep.
