I saw the commercial, and now I was holding it in my hands. Standing there in grocery aisle, my mind drifted to a place where Pug hair no longer ruled over my furniture. A happy place where I didn’t have to wrestle with the vacuum or trip over the 10-foot hose that sometimes entangled me like a python. A few simple swipes with this handy little gadget, and I would be done.
Brush in any direction and the hair won’t lift off the sheet. The top has a tapered edge that is great for reaching into crevices and for running along the baseboard. The sheet stays in place until removed and is the only disposable part of this product. Using the FUR Fighter on the carpeted stairs was effortless, and they looked just as fresh as when vacuumed.
For under $10, you can begin the fight and win the battle. Scotch is so confident in their product that they are offering a money-back guarantee.
See their website for complete details.

I believe we’ve successfully navigated through another Daylight Savings Time change. Strangely, the pugs cannot tell time, but they always know what time it is. Yes, I’ve trained them on a schedule, but sometimes I would like to tweak that schedule–just a little.
Saturday mornings I would prefer to sleep a little later than to be outside at 7 a.m. half asleep in my bathrobe waiting for Shade to finish. (What was the hurry after all?)
They are just as intuitive in the afternoon. Eyes pop open, legs stretch, snorts and yawns follow as they bring themselves back to the land of the living. I don’t even have to look at the clock. I know it is 2:45 p.m. Time to take a walk, take care of business and eat. The most beloved and anticipated time of day…dinner time. Perhaps it’s not an internal clock after all, but an internal dinner bell.

With Halloween just around the corner, many of us will have mounds of yummy chocolate candy in the house. Its wonderful aroma is tempting not only to us, but to our beloved food hounds as well. Somehow our crafty little black Pug helped himself to some chocolate decadence last weekend. A worrisome 24 hours followed as he kept bringing up evidence of his crime.
Just a reminder that chocolate is considered a poisonous food to dogs. The ASPCA has a list a foods particularly harmful to pets. Take a quick look–some of the foods listed may surprise you.
