Just brushed Obe

He goes outside comes in with...SAP down his side and on his butt. I give up... I cut gum out of his paw last month. The sticks, pebbles, pine needles, and anything else he gets in his hair while outside I can deal with, goes with owning an OES.
What have other owners cut, shaved, brushed out of their OES?

Over night dried slug - it had fizzed up a fair bit and dried out overnight and set like concrete!
So far the owrst thing Baloo has brought in from outside.... those little prickly burs that stick to everything...

knock on wood he's not discovered anything else to hide in his fur yet!!
The funniest - a baked bean dried into his coat - way down near the skin.
Must have dropped one while he was directly underfoot when dishing up my plate...... :lol:

The usual - cockleburrs, twigs, mulch (from the dogyard), muck from the latest pond or river he decided to swim in. 8)

Well, at least the slug was dry. The lizard, still alive, is the most unusual and frankly I hope it doesn't happen again.
wow so this is what i have to look forward to??? :pupeyes:
ive only had billy 8 months so this is going to be his first full coat. just about coping with the ankle deep mud from the garden (its a just a bit flooded from the rain) i need a concrete garden! he gets the twigs and sticky buds but from what you guys are saying anything can happen!oh well here we go!
A sheepie may not shed like other breeds but when in full coat, everything from outside can come in with them.
An OES has nothing on what a Komondor can bring in. I've pulled (no joke) small trees out of Bear. They can hide bigger stuff. :evil:
Guinness and I walked a parade once with our therapy dog group The streets were lined with kids and he loves to work the crowd. He had half a lolly pop in his head, apiece of taffy in his butt and a piece of candy cane in his side 8O The next year some fool was selling cotton candy and we worked the other side of the street!!!
Oh I bet Bear is a magnet! Glacier also drags in branches in her britches.
LOL these are funny! Bing is into the normal stuff - branches, burrs, etc. No slugs yet . . . :roll:
Loki once brought me a 6 foot long tree branch - With leaves 8O It had somehow gotten tangled into his ruff (longways) and he didn't understand why he couldn't get through the door (Think the moose in 'A Night at the Museum'). It took half an hour to get it loose and he was quite put out that I wouldn't let him keep it -- He kept trying to pick up the pieces and bring them in the house.
"I should have stayed on the trail and out of the burr-bushes," thinks Maggie the Dog.

It took over 2 hours to get all of the burrs and seeds and whatever else that was stuck in her coat. We tried so hard not to bring out the scissors, but the 2 we found 3 days later had to be cut out!
