I have two older dogs who shed like crazy. What can I do?

i have 2 dogs that shed like crazy. we are not giving them up for they are family dogs. but i need to know what can I do to help them stop shedding so much and a faster way of cleaning up the dog hair! they are medium sized dogs with short hair. thank to anyone that can help!

The first thing to do with shedding dogs is to make certain that they are getting GREAT food...poor nutrition is a major source of shedding...a good place to start with nutrition: if you can buy it a Wal-Mart, you don't want to feed it to your dogs...talk to a pet nutritionist (most offer phone consultations)...I saw a HUGE reduction in shedding when I switched to a better food.



Second, I don't know what breeds your dogs are, so talk to a groomer about what kind of brush is best for your dog...there really is a difference in brushes, and the "best" will vary according to your dog's breed.



Third, my friends and family who have pets all swear by the Dyson Animal Vaccum for clean up...they say it does the best at picking up hair...I removed all of the carpet from my home and replaced it with laminate flooring, it made cleaning up a lot easier.



There's no perfect answer for you, it depends on what you are willing/able to do, but I hope i gave you some ideas on where to start.

Completely strip them down. If it means making them bald, then it means making them bald. Or you could groom them daily. It could be good that they shed so much; there's a company that you can send the fur to. They'll spin it into yarn for you! I don't know the name of it, but you'll probably be able to find it if you google something like "dog fur into yarn" or something like that.

mix 2tbs. of olive oil into your's pet's food twice a week. The essential fatty acids in the oil help to reduce (or even eliminate) nonseasonal shedding. Plus, the add-in promotes heathly skin and a lustrous coat.
