Also, I generally do not keep the tail or britches fiber because it's much more coarse than the body coat. It is useful, but should be kept for something that is not intended to be next-to-skin.<br /><br />All that being said, I think you could assume about 1 pound per dog per year. Although I have a friend who gets more than 5 pounds off his male.<br /><br />I'd love to know how your process goes.Kathryn Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12990925295124938262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193450499711699622.post-40751264990919721292017-01-28T06:30:56.438-07:002017-01-28T06:30:56.438-07:00Our Tibetan Mastiff has just started to blow her c...Our Tibetan Mastiff has just started to blow her coat and I'm going to collect the fur.
