Swampland weather -- Ha --- what else RAIN!! I must say that while having the splendid GSDs I'd made a remark once to my son as I was grooming big time that I've got GSD fur from here to the Canadian Border. He looked at me in funtime amazement and just repeated --- "The Canadian Border"! I said that certainly it is blowing UP and wouldn't go to the Mexican Border or into the Gulf. Our thread on this one made me so nostalgic about this as I, like others, was able to supply the birds with soft wonderful nesting material. It was so neat to watch them pick it up where I'd stashed it for them every year and, er more than once a year. I have been blessed with this breed totally as they DO adjust so wonderfully to climate changes. I'd gotten several males from New Jersey (JJ, Troll & Banker sons) who'd never missed the snowy winters and were superly healthy in this humid wetland. BITCHES blow coat at any given moment -- ha!

My dogs can't decide what coat they should have so they have been blowing coat for a month now.? As soon as they decide the weather does a 180 and they start blowing again.?

I put them away because I knew I would not use them again, until I traveled someplace cold......How wrong I was, I dug them out to wear today when I went shopping....by 9:30 this morning the temperature had risen to a crisp 30 degrees.....I expect that back east and in the mid west, but not in Tucson.... I don't know about anyone else, but I am ready for Spring.
