Dogs Cats and Fur Battles – Pet Tip 251
Cats and dogs have plenty of fur and the battle of the fur and the household never seems to end. Cats and dogs don’t seem to care much about losing a bit of fur but it does bother many humans. Given that the fur problem for humans is not likely to end anytime soon is there anything we can do to reduce the amount of fur that cats and dogs shed?
The answer is ‘yes and no’ and has a lot to do with the personality of the human not the cat or dog. Dogs and cats shed and that is a fact of life. They can no more stop shedding than we humans can stop shedding. (Humans shed skin cells and lose body/head hair every single day).

HOOCH
June 1993-September 2008
Hooch was a very loving and playful dog. His favorite thing in the world was a tennis ball. He would sit pretty and not move a muscle while he waited for it to be thrown. It didn't matter how long he had to wait but he would howl as loud as he could if it wasn't fast enough for him. He would catch it and bring it right back to wait again. He also love dropping it in the toilet or his water bowl and sucking the water off of it.
He loved going for walks and he let the whole neighborhood know when he was out and about.
He was sick as a puppy and spent his first week with us at the vets. He got better and was a healthy dog after that. When he was 15 his health started to decline. He lived a long life and he was getting tired. He couldn't keep any food down and lost weight. He had to be carried in and out of the house his last days with us. He was letting us know that it was his time to go. After 15 years with us we had to say goodbye. He was euthanized with us by his side. He left us knowing that he was well loved and would be terribly missed.
RIP Hooch. We'll meet you at Rainbow Bridge.
