Oooh, I'll bet that was as bad for you as it was for him. :W White poodle hair is the worst, so soft and stickable. I used to keep the poodle's butt clipped close, just for that reason. The kids would grab him and I would get the hose. yuck!
I'm used to it - Ike would come in, and just LOOK at me, and the message was "there's something stuck to my butt" :-( He even understood where his butt was - I'd say "let me see your butt" and he'd turn around for the inspection...
But Ike was smart enough to not SIT and try to dislodge the offending matter. Ben, on the other hand, had half the parking lot stuck to his backside, too......LOL!! Yes, "close haircuts" back there are going to be mandatory!
There IS something to be said for a Cattle Dog - they're made of Teflon. NOTHING sticks - not poo/burrs/mud/snow...nothing!!!!
