My husband decided to speed up the process. He took Schultz outside and pulled out the leaf blower.
"You're not seriously going to use the leaf blower on him, are you?" I asked.
"Of course I am," he responded. "They sell things like this to blow out hair when a dog is shedding."
I shook my head. "Not ones that big and loud."
He grabbed Schultz's collar and turned the blower on. You should've seen the hair that came off of him. It looked like it was snowing. When my husband was done, the front yard was literally covered with Schultz's hair.
Schultz was not pleased with the blower. As soon as my husband let go of the collar, he ran off, gave himself a good shake, and promptly rolled in his own hair. Guess he wasn't ready to part with it!
Before I go, I thought I'd share a video I made from a recent recital I did. I'm joined by Allen Baston, piano and Earl Hough, violin.
I can imagine torrents of Schultz hair flying around. We've had similar experiences.
ReplyDeleteI love your concert music. You have many incredible talents.
Thanks, Deanie!
DeleteBeautiful music!
ReplyDeleteSchultz wants his hair back.
Maybe he thought it would reattach!
DeleteI'm amazed that Schultz stood still for the hair blow out. Always enjoy your music, so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHe's a patient dog. I don't think he liked it, though.
DeleteThis was beautiful to listen to and it put me in a great mood. You are so talented! Bravo!
ReplyDeleteAlso- that is too funny about Schultz. Hopefully he didn't bring all the hair back in the house. :)

It took a while, but I think he's done with the official shed.
DeleteKeep making me laugh, Sherry.
ReplyDeleteYour music video gave me shivers of joy. :-)
Thanks, Tracy!
DeletePerhaps a hair dryer would have worked better? But that's better than shedding hair all over the place. Now you just need to find a spinner to take all that hair and turn it into yarn ;)
ReplyDeleteI would have done the hair dryer thing. I bet you could make something from all of the hair!
DeleteLoved the music video. And poor Schultz.
ReplyDeleteI don't think he minded too much.
DeleteLoved the music Sherry. I love all types of music.
ReplyDeleteGreat story also.
Yvonne.
Glad you enjoyed the music!
DeleteEwww ewww and ewwww!
ReplyDeleteBootsy doesn't shed nearly as much as Schultz!
DeleteHi, Sherry!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Schultz (and your house) would benefit from a good spring haircut by a groomer. Be careful if you try to rake up his loose hair in the yard. Schultz is aka "Mister Rake Eater." :)
The three of you played beautifully at the recital in Dunwoody. Congratulations, dear friend!
We picked up the hair snow by hand, because Schultz would have most definitely eaten the rake.
DeleteThanks for the nice comment about my playing.
First: the music blew me away. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteSecond: all that blowing^... I somehow would have thought vacuuming would be a better way to go about this. See what your husband thinks and ask Schultz, also.
Vacuuming would have definitely been a better idea.
DeleteYou play beautifully! Loved listening to it. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteAs to the Schultz...I'm SO glad our dog has very short hair. What a mess!
We call Schultz the German Shedder. He has lots of hair!
DeleteI loved listening to you play!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteI hope your husband had a patent on his idea. A smaller, less noisy 'leaf blower' market as a pet hair blower sounds like a great idea.
ReplyDeleteLoving listening to you play, thank you for sharing.
Smaller would have been better!
DeleteBeautiful music. Thank you for sharing the video.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day
Thank you! Enjoy your day as well.
DeleteToo bad you don't have a video of the dog blow out.
ReplyDeleteThat would've been funny to see.
Deletehaha wasn't ready to let go. Poor guy.
ReplyDeleteI think he liked his hair.
DeleteWow, would have loved to see that happening!
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't believe how much of a winter coat he had!
DeleteThanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteVery good Keep it up.
