Size Don't Matter

It really doesn't, and I, Twinkie, can prove it. Watch...

 Yeah, aha, you got it.  It's MY dog food. You two can only look.

 You can act all innocent, Pedrito, but we all know what you're thinking.

 You too, Frankie.

Nom, nom. It's yummy! Delicious!

 Ugh! Is he still there? He's a persistent lil' one.

 H-okay! All done.

 As soon as I turn my back . . .

Go on, silly chihuahua puppy. It's all yours. BOL

This was just one demonstration that proves that size is irrelevant. Tiny dogs RULE!!!

Best Pet Hair Remover: Pledge Fabric Sweeper For Pet Hair | A Product Review

Pledge Fabric Sweeper For Pet Hair

Best Pet Hair Remover!

There's a total of 11 of us living under one roof. Seven cats and four dogs. It's inevitable; our house quickly fills up with hair. Frequent vacuuming and maintenance helps, but our humans are always on the lookout for the best pet hair remover, and, so far, and for a few months now, there's one winner: The Pledge Fabric Sweeper For Pet Hair.

This pet hair remover, has two lint-collecting  rollers that grab, lift, and trap the hair inside. It's easy to use, as long as the fabric has no slack. It works really well on surfaces such as: couches and pillows, bedding, chairs, and so on. I repeat, it does not work as well on loose fabric.

We've been through numerous pet hair removal products, including the popular pet hair rollers, several sponges, etc, but the Pledge Fabric Sweeper does not compare in ease of use and cost. It also saves time, since you don't have to keep finding the edge of the sticky paper. 

Another of the best features of the Pledge pet hair remover is that ... despite what the manufacturer says, IT IS REUSABLE! It is also inexpensive compared to the rest of this category of products.


In October of last year, Consumer Reports, gave the Pledge Fabric Sweeper For Pet Hair an excellent review confirming our experience. We've been using ours since July of 2010.

There are videos on youtube that show you how to clean out your Pledge pet hair remover, even though it's pretty simple to figure out.

New Family Member Introduction

It's A Boy!

I just recently got a new baby bro. His name is Noble and he's six years old. He's a thoroughbred and he's approximately 16.1 hands tall. 

Noble is in training to become a jumper

He's already clearing 4.9 by a foot.

Noble is training my sissy how to. . .

You get the picture.

As soon as my sissy trains him a bit better, I'm going to resume my riding lessons at the barn. 

Welcome to our family, Noble!

Bandit-Masked Intruders

We had some not-so-welcome company inside our garage last night.

Yikes!

One of the raccoons was missing an eye. He looked really scary. What's even more hair-raising is that raccoons are adaptable feeders, which means they will eat just about anything, from fish, mice, trash, tiny dogs . . . 

Raccoons are troublemakers and dangerous. They can also weigh 25lbs or more. Luckily, they're nocturnal, so during the day, all of us small dogs get to roam around our yard and take in the sun's rays.

They wreak havoc frequently at our home. They eat all our fish from the pond, attack the chickens in the middle of the night, and sometimes they even manage to open our food bins and eat all the dog food!

I do not like raccoons and that's final. Now, I'm sure you'll all believe me when I tell you that M has even raised a baby raccoon, but that was before my time.

These raccoons were lucky M was here. Had I been watching the house on my own, I would have taught them a lesson they'd never forget!

Friday's Funnies

Every time I share my dog training tips with y'all, I stress the fact that we, the cats and dogs, rule the household. We outsmart all humans. That's why my dog training tips are aimed at my good furiends, and NOT their pawrents. To start out the weekend on a funny note, and to take off the stress of this past week, allow me to prove my point by sharing a video that proves just how much smarter we are than humans.

TGIF Video!

Just ignore the canned laughter and add your own laugh track

Check out all these beloved spots!

Happy Spotted Thursday!
