    Our dog doesn't shed. I can't imagine having one that does!

    It does of course mean that we have to take him to the groomers every 8 weeks but it is a small price to pay for a hair free house, car and van :)Β

    Not a no spends day today. We have a home shopping delivery coming this afternoon.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores though. Breakfast was crumpets, the other half has taken his packed lunch to work, I am having a jacket potato for my lunch and dinner tonight is jerk pork chops with chips, beer battered onion rings, garlic mushroom and coleslaw.

    Today's jobs include:
    • working from home
    • vacuuming the house
    • dusting the house
    • load of washing
    • cleaning out the van
    • sorting the home shopping delivery
    • walking the dog x 2

    We had a wire fox terrier that didn’t shed but the following dog was a Jack Russell cross and it more than made up for it. If we do get one I think I’ll have to have another wiry one.

    We didn't plan to get this dog but if we did plan to get another one, which we don't, it would most certainly be a non shedding breed. I don't know how people put up with dog hair (or pet hair in general).

    He has a fur coat - I suspect he's unimpressed because it's so warm at theΒ  moment.Β  I'm not sure dogs EVER need extra coats in the UK, especially when sleeping inside.
