Molly is 3 now, a Blenheim with a full adult coat (finally). She started her seasonal shedding this week, and I am surprised at just how much she is shedding. This is the first year that she has had the mature coat, and I waited more or less impatiently for it to come in, as I think that the full-coated Cavaliers are so beautiful. Now I sort of wish she still had the sparser puppy coat. The good news is that she loves to be groomed. It is an activity we do pretty much every day, as we sit and snuggle. She gets a full, more exacting grooming once a week, and loves that too. I do not have a grooming table, so I put a big towel over the dining room table. She knows that when that towel comes out, she is going to get some attention, so she jumps right up on the table and sits there waiting for the combing and brushing to commence. She moves from position to position on her own, so I can get to all parts of her coat, and when we are finished she waits to be complimented on how pretty she looks before she gets down off the table. I swear she just preens. If you keep up with the brushing and combing, you will keep up with most of the shedding. You are always going to have some. They are fur-babies after all, but it is certainly managable.
