Above you can see my American Eskimo Dog, Buzzy. He is a pure delight, except for shedding. I brush him several times a week. Pictured below is the pile of hair I brushed out this morning. The fibers are long, silky, and soft as rabbit fur. I have long thought it would make a beautiful sweater. I believe I could collect enough in a few weeks, but am not industrious enough to learn spinning. I need to get to work. I am wasting a valuable renewable resource.
I found the pictures below on a Russian sale site of garments made of various kinds of dog hair, including Spitz, Akita, Samoyed, and Eskies. The health, warmth, and durability are highly touted. Check out this site. https://www.livemaster.com/masterpr Shop at Livedogsnitka(MasterPr).

I have a long hair Papillon that weighs 4 lbs hardly sheds at all and my daughter’s two labs shed considerable more than he does. My somewhat short hair cat is the worse and in big clumps too.

My Essie sheds like crazy. Our mastiff is short haired and the shedding is not remarkable. When they tussle the big boy pulls tufts of hair out of Buzzy. I brush a ton of hair out everyday.

I could have an entire dog hair wardrobe with the amount my dogs shed. Oh, never mind, I already do. Everything I own is layered in tan hair. 🙂

It would be a trick not to have dog hair.

Just think, maybe you could start your own business knitting dog hair garments!
