The Hairy Husky


Mr. Phoenix never really stopped blowing his coat this year. He started in Spring and it's still coming out in clumps! I'd been brushing him on and off, but last night I'd finally had enough! I grabbed a fine toothed comb to see if it would work better. Um, it did. With treats and a lot of patience, this is what I ended up with an hour later. Richard was astonished.

Oh, my word! I can't believe you got all that fur at one sitting! Too bad you can't spin it and make yourself a "Phoenix" scarf!

Hey Maybe you could use it to stuff a pillow :-) It looks like batting!

That's funny, Richard said the same thing. Aww, a Phoenix scarf isn't gross! That way I would always have my boy with me. At least when it's cold. There is a place online where you can send hair and have it spun. I'll seriously have to look into it.
