# Ahi looks horrible right now... Anyone else experiencing a MASSIVE Shikoku coat blowing?

It doesn't seem to want to stop, her hair just keep coming out! ---- ## Edgewood · 2009-04-10T18:02:22.000Z Oh yeah. But Kuma is mostly done (thank God!). It is horrible - so much hair. ## hondru (moderator) · 2009-04-10T18:06:28.000Z Rakka's blowout was about a month ago. Tojo's having his, though, and he looks really bizarre. He shed his butt hair first this season, so his shoulders look all huge and buff compared to his skinny little butt. He looks like a body builder, lol. ## Romi (admin) · 2009-04-10T18:12:32.000Z Wow! And it's not easy furminating that girl! (I remember the vid ofJen trying). Hope she finishes blowing soon! ## LisaW · 2009-04-10T18:19:56.000Z haha poor Ahi... she reallly looks horrible... as if somebody plucked her like a goose how are her hips doing? she doesnt look very comfortable with her legs at this pic :( ## sunyata · 2009-04-10T20:01:27.000Z Makes you wish you could just shear them like sheep, eh? Silly girl, she needs to LOVE the furminator. :) ## sujewel · 2009-04-10T20:21:29.000Z Poor Ahi...though you did give me quite a scare. Keigo's shed seems pretty severe this year too. And the hair that's left is super duper coarse. I wonder what's up. Probably just the weird weather this year. Dunno. Romi: I LOVE tha video of Ahi. It totally cracks me up. ## cmmookie · 2009-04-10T20:22:40.000Z That's what Penny looks like right now. It's so sad :( There is sooo much hair everywhere, but she is only a 15 lb Shiba. I can't imagine the amount of hair flying around your house! LOL ## Darwin67 · 2009-04-10T20:45:07.000Z Poor Ahi!! I'm now down to vaccuuming only 4 times a week now...but the fur keeps on comin!! In fact, I've got the vaccuum all revved up and ready to go before company arrives! sigh. ## ddowdemers · 2009-04-10T22:54:32.000Z We are over it, thankfully. It lasted about 5-6 weeks. Yuck. ## JessicaRabbit (admin) · 2009-04-10T23:33:18.000Z Mikos was last month. I was horrified. I thought I was doing something to make her sick or something. But her coat is nice and fluffy now. ## ShikokuSpirit (moderator) · 2009-04-11T01:02:38.000Z Yeah, Kei finally finished his molting some time ago. Those butt fluffs were a pain though, he kept sitting down everytime I tried to pluck them, lol. Oh...I'll fill ya in on a little secret, for those of you who don't own the Furminator (like me). I found that a metal cat comb work wonders on Shikoku! Kotomi has yet to shed her puppy coat. ## Chanur Akita · 2009-04-11T08:38:58.000Z They have the same fur thing with Akita Ken. It's normal when they lose there coat, it depend of the season but sometime: they lose lot lot lot of fur! ;-P So sweet Ahi! ## asia · 2009-04-13T20:03:35.000Z Poor Ahi! Wow - I think I'll definitely be investing in a furminator when I get my nihon-ken! ## brada1878 (admin) · 2009-04-16T16:04:54.000Z Ahi is looking a lot better now... ---- ## okiron · 2009-04-16T16:11:14.000Z Aww <3 Absolutely gorgeous :D ## Two Socks · 2009-04-16T16:16:26.000Z What a cool expression! Beautiful ## brandon_w (admin) · 2009-04-16T16:19:19.000Z She looks skinny after a coat blow. ## KFontaine04 · 2009-04-16T16:24:42.000Z She does look skinny, but still super cute. I <3 Ahi. ## CrimsonO2 · 2009-04-16T16:50:26.000Z She looks like a shorn sheep, but I agree, her nobility is very much "The Emperor's New Clothes" :) Jesse ## tsukitsune (moderator) · 2009-04-16T17:15:05.000Z I'm so glad to see her out and about again! ## Saya · 2009-04-16T18:38:34.000Z Ahi looks much better now such a pretty shikoku. ## asia · 2009-04-18T03:51:19.000Z Oh wow - that last one's beautiful! ## lindsayt · 2009-04-18T21:19:23.000Z Wow,they really look rough right in the middle of a coat blow. ## hondru (moderator) · 2009-04-18T22:33:06.000Z Good looks run in the family. --- **Navigate:** [Forum home](https://nihonken.org/community/?format=md) · [Sitemap](https://nihonken.org/community/sitemap.xml)
