As the Fur Flies..

Friday, December 7, 2007

I love animals! Do to my inclination I have two cute cuddly pups and one totalitarian ruling cat. This time of year it is a fur festival around here! I'm am not sure why but my puppies tend to shed like crazy this time of year.
The husky puppy (as pictured) is always into trouble in addition to her compulsive shedding. Her fur is like little daggers about 2 inch long. They intertwine in the threads of any textured fabric.
The "GREENest" method I have found to remove the ultimately annoying and social disgraceful furry tag-alongs has been with a damp cloth. Preferably a wash cloth that has some texture to it. Brush the damp wash cloth over your area of your clothes where the fur is attached. It also seems if your wiping motion is perpendicular to the weaving of the fabric. The wetness acts as a sticky cloth to the fur. The furry Tag-alongs will adhere to the wash cloth and be gone from your clothes.
The Traditional Method:
I have found a good roll of duct tape works better than any lint brush or roller. Remove a 6 to 8 inch piece of tape and fold it backwards around your hand and reattach it to the roll. The sticky side should be on the outside with your hand wrapped inside the tape loop. I then apply the tape to my clothes and I'm clean and out the door.
(FYI: The husky in the picture decided the electric bill was worthy of her destructive tendencies. I agree with her:) ) "No animals were harmed or even disciplined." She is just too cute.
