tip-o-day
Do you have a dog? Does your dog have a dog-bed?
Well here is my dog-bed tip of the day.
Don't bother with the LLBean Premium hundred dollar cushy, fleecy, in your choice of colors, type dog-bed.
Oh sure - they have the zip off cover for easy cleaning and are filled with aromatic cedar shavings.
Well... after a couple months you go ahead and zip that cover off and bury your nose in those aromatic cedar shavings and tell me what it smells like.
My point is this - you can wash the cover every week, but the odor soon gets into the bed itself.
Dogs are cute... but let's face they smell bad.
We buy the 20.00 Wal-mart version (or course you can go to Target or K-Mart if you have seen the Evil Giant documentary) and simply replace it every month or so. I also recommend vacuumming often - just give it a once over while doing the floors (which... if you have a lab you are doing almost everyday anyway) and give it an airing once every week if you can.
