We have recently acquired a Keeshond puppy and it is wonderful;
however, we are having great difficulty in one area (actually
there are several problems with puppies, but one in particular to
this one). Keeshonds are long haired dogs and the area we live
in (rural) is infested with burr laden weeds. A ten minute romp
though a field must be followed with a 45 minute very trying and
somewhat painful grooming (for both the puppy and the groomer).
Our long haired cats have a similar problem but a slicker brush
will take their burrs out by the dozens without a hitch; the
slicker brush is not particularly effective on the dog. Any
suggestions?
