Anyone Else?

My Sam is obsessed with his own fluff. We've managed to find ways to keep him entertained when he has kennel time. That's not the issue. It's when we brush him. The minute I go to remove his fluff from the comb or brush he rips it out of my hand and devours it. We have a locked trash can because of it but sometimes he gets it before I can even get it in the can. This boy is absolutely ravenous. We got one of the pet brush vacuums but sometimes he still gets some before it gets sucked in. Please tell me I'm not alone on this...
