Hi,

The biggest problem is they really do not like having their head touched.

But sometimes we have to just bite the bullet and do it anyway. They will squirm - and on particularly unpleasant occasions crap all over you.

Don't waste money on shed aid - just soak her for half an hour and remove the stuck shed by hand. You can use a spray bottle if it starts drying out and sticking.

BUT you have to be really careful when you are doing it - especially around her eyes when removing the spectacles.

I usually start by rubbing around the lips at the side of the head to get it started then work forward until I get the nose free and then use that to peel slowly back.

Sometimes they just get lazy and stop trying to shed.
