The Dirt and Dust My Dogs... Brought Home


I
t's not just the cars,
that brings in this huge billowing cloud of, powdery, gritty, dirt and dust.

What, with the static interactions from the dust, dirt, sand, rocks, leaves and sticks, it doesn't really matter who or what is the culprit, i.e., cars, husband, myself, our pets, neighbors four kids, their pets, horses, goat, pig and dog... Oh!, and we can't forget the 35 mile an hour or more winds!

We are amazed!, at how much dust we bring into the house, just from our clothing. This is after we've been walking around our back quarter part of our powdery dirt acre with our two pup's, or after playing "Chuckit!" (a ball launcher toy), with our two dogs. The clouds of dust swirl all around us, as our pup's run to chase the ball and bring it back to us.

We try
to shake off as much of the dirty dust from our clothes and shoes as possible, before we go back into the house. But, of course, we don't seem to get as much off as we thought we did...

...And whenever we're outside playing ball with our pup's, anybody who has a dog for a pet knows, that your puppy dog's, seem to become a super, static attractor of dusty dirt, leaves and grass. Swoosh!!!!, as all the grass and dirt clings to their fur coats like an electro-magnet!!!

Of course, the more you try to brush all of this static magnetized stuff out of their fur, the brushing only makes it twice as bad. All the grass, leaves, and dust, just seems to go deeper into their fur. Nope! brushing, to try to get all that stuff off their backs, only makes it worse.

The end result? Our puppy dog's, dust, sand, and grass is hauled into the house, and as they happily rub and shake, or just walk around and play with their toys, what seeems to happen, is a ton of dust, some grass, and allot of dog hair flying everywhere!

Somehow, it all "magically" separates, from their fur, into a huge cloud puff, that ends up all over everything, onto the floor, and into the carpet.

One of my favorite vac's today, my faithful Kirby, to the rescue! .... ...

Opps, got to go,
ring, ring, got a call from my mom, till next time, see ya!
