Many moon ago we lived in a neighborhood, much like the one I am in now. A bird's nest fell out of a tree at a neighbor's house. They found cream colored hair lining the nest. They brought it to us to see if it was from our dogs. We knew which dog it was from. When hair blows around it is used by others for nesting and bedding. Arizona nights are not warm all year round. I am sure any hair that blows away will be found by someone who needs a warm nest. sheila Terry Cochran <fairway97045@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: I have a question. In Oregon I have a large kennel with plenty of grooming room. I bathe blow dry and the hair never leaves my property. Here in AZ the neighbors are right next to you. What is proper grooming etiquette here? If I use a high power blower I will have hair in their yard and probably stuck to the side of their stucco house? Folks in AZ how do you handle this problem?

I have a full sized professional grooming tub w/ hot and cold water in my unfinished basement. If it's warm, they then go outside to partially air dry while I wash whoever is next in line, or if it's cold they are immediately towel then blown dry. I always finish with blowing them out on the grooming table.
