Cosmo smells like…

    …fabric softener... I did the laundry later in the day and put her blanket on it and used it last night... She always bury herself in it to keep super warm and toasty... This morning, when I was playing with her, she smelled kind of fresh and clean... And then realized why... I think she's static-free, too!!! :D:D:D

    Wow, smells good and static free too! That calls for some extra hugs and smooches!

    My rat terrier, Joker, gets very anxious whenever there's a thunderstorm, and starts to shake… and we live in the lightning capital of the US. :) Someone told me to rub his back with a fabric softening sheet, like Bounce... and it was supposed to discharge the static electricity in the air! Well, it didn't really work, but he sure did smell good! :) :)

    All of mine are having a longer and larger shed right now than is usual. I think it because it has been unusually hot and humid for a longer time than normal.

    I would think they are extra interested in the smell because it is so foreign to them. So they keep sniffing it in hopes to identify it.

    Paxton hates the water. He dreads going out in the rain. However, when we go to the park and the local labs are playing in the left over puddles, he has the time of his life in the water. He just loves it! We also fostered 2 other basenjis whom never seemed to mind the rain. The most recent was kept as an outside dog before the original family gave him up. That might have had something to do with it. It didn't matter if it was hot and dry, or pouring down rain turn to snow, he was just as happy to trot around outside.

    Thanks, Jodie. I don't think Mags gives a rip about the song ("Just rub and scratch, no singing necessary, PLEASE!"), but it makes me feel happy!
