  Two of my buns are shedding quite bad. What method do you guys use to get under the belly? Bindi freaks out when I try to get under his belly and Stormy tries to bite me!!!

  I have no idea but I’m glad you asked this. Smudge has what I like to call her “Santa Beard” basically she has this weird really fluffly hair on her chest and grows like mad and is different from the hair on the rest of her. Problem is I can’t get to it with a brush or even some small clippers she is just having none of it!

  Well I hold the bun up under his front legs and brush the belly. Mine are used to it. Started young. Another bun I know jumps over my hand when I start brushing. That one I hold it’s hind legs up and brush. I get a few strokes in b4 he starts struggling. For the chest beard I have a comb and swipe a few strokes b4 they get upset with me. Got to be quick and sneaky.

  I can’t get to Edson’s stomach either. Everything is easy but then when I hold him up to brush the belly - no way. He starts squirming like crazy.
