    Well. Four weeks after Poppy's spay and she's started a mega-moult! Much more extreme than her normal moult, and it's earlier than the normal spring mount too. I strongly suspect this is due to hormonal changes.

    She is very happy though - much jollier than before, friendly to other dogs and encouraging them to play.

    Hehe, I see an upgrade of the hoover in your future!

    Willow doesn't moult much, though. Although after 30 minutes sat on the vet's floor having lots of cuddles earlier, his floor was black :D

    I'm hoping this is a one-off... I remember that she used to have a moult after each season, but this is definitely worse!
