Hi
I know certain times of the year give us certain problems for our Newfs...May is black flies, July- August heat waves and right now - small little green burrs that attach my Newf by the millions! I am trying to avoid the areas 'I know' have these little green destroyers but doesn't River still come up with them after every walk! - just hundredrs of them all through her belly, chest, legs and ears. By the time Newf Stock is here I'm wondering how much of her coat she'll have left? I want our girl to look her best of course. She is really patient to let me try and pull out each one by hand but the clumps that have managed to get right to her skin I have to cut out. So frustrating to deal with every night.
How do you take care of zillions of little burrs? I need a new plan of attack.
