Vacuum The Dog?

[newfie lover]

I vacumed my newf yesterday for the first time and she LOVED it. She is blowing her coat so as I was brushing her my fiance was vacuming it all up, it was so much easier

One thing I did learn yesterday was that if your going to vacume your newfoundland use a bloody bagless vecume cleaner, the bag was full of hair

Whilst looking on some american sites a while ago I see you can purchase clippers with an attachment that has a vaccum. So when you clip no mess which is good but looked very cumbersome. I prefer to have vaccum near whilst clipping so hair can be picked up regularly. some dogs actually like being vaccumed and providing you aren't silly with it, it shouldn't be a problem. love the Idea of using dust buster to desensatise nervous dogs. will be trying that one thankyou.

Of course I have....what kind of a question is that.......

You can actually buy an attachment for the vacuum to assist in grooming/vacuuming the dog, they are available in the bigger pet stores.

I certainly have. As a kid, our red cattle dog used to come over and beg for it. I grew up thinking it was standard practice. When I was little I was surprised that some dogs were scared!!
