[nagdu] winter grooming

[Julie J]

Heya!

For the past I don't know how many years I have either groomed the dogs outdoors even in the cold, turning into a popsicle in the process or I brush them in the living room and vacuum directly after.  The bitter cold is an increasing problem for me physically. I don't always have time to vacuum immediately.  So I call on you my dearest dog loving friends, is there some solution to this dilemma?  Or am I just whining about trivialities and need to get over myself? *smile*

What I really need is a brush attached to a vacuum that doesn't make any noise so Miss Belle doesn't have a neurotic episode.  Although I did get her to tolerate the PediPaws...perhaps there is hope.

Ideas?  Suggestions?  Commiseration?
TIA
Julie
