Husky Shedding

So I did some research to see if M&M's shedding was normal... it is! Evidently Huskies shed their coat twice a year. This is what I found in my research:

Twice a year, Siberians "blow" their undercoats. They will shed their undercoats completely. It is a very intense shedding period that can last three weeks from start to finish. The good news is it only happens twice a year! The remainder of the time, Siberians are relatively shed free. Some people feel that this problem is easier to cope with than the constant shedding and removal of many smooth-coated breeds. The hair usually comes out in large and small clumps. The two brushes that no one should live without if they own a husky, is a slicker and a grooming comb. During the intense shedding period, if you brush the dog every day, to help get out the undercoat, it should shorten the shedding period. Other than during the shedding season, the Siberian needs very little grooming. No trimming or shaving of the hair is required. Just occasional brushing and to remove dead hair and keep the coat fresh and shiny.

So the good news is that our dog doesn't really shed the rest of the year. The bad news is that she has clumps of hair coming out now and by the article can last up to 3 weeks! And of course she doesn't like the brush so I can't help it out quicker with it. I have to wait till she's laying down and then just sit there an pull clumps of hair out. It's kind of like when someone has a sunburn and their skin is peeling and you're pulling their skin off? LOL, come on you know you do it don't tell me that's gross. Anywho, that's what its like.
