Oh that is too weird! Thats never happened to me but I must say Samson's hair is prickly. In the sense that his hairs work their way into stuff. Like it would IMPOSSIBLE to get all the dog hair from the carpet in my car, there will always be some worked into the fibers that will never come out. In a sense thats true with any dog hair but with him its BAD! My beagles hair does not do that. He feels soft when you pet him but those are prickly hairs LOL
