Can you wash a dog with dish soap?
Edit: The below is my response to a comment I received telling me about the danger of using undiluted dish liquid on a dog. It contains ingredients that can be corrosive at high concentration. Since a lot of dish liquid is heavily concentrated, this is a real concern I wanted to reflect. I’ve deleted my original answer because I thought it might be confusing to some people.I completely understand that you’re trying to help get people the right info. I agree that using Dawn on a dog is a last resort option; there are much better alternatives out there.I’m just saying that using heavily diluted dish liquid once in the dog’s lifetime isn’t going to cause lasting harm. I’ve been in this situation before: I was pet sitting for a family member, the dog rolled in something awful and I had no dog shampoo. I used a bit of Dawn dish liquid (very very diluted with water, not dumping the soap directly on the dog) to get her clean enough that she wouldn’t track the mess everywhere. I bought moisturizing wipes to help her skin in case the dish liquid had dried it out (and dog shampoo, just in case) the next day.Bottom line: it’s not the best option, but if you find yourself with no other alternative, make sure you dilute the Dawn dish liquid A LOT before putting it on the dog and keep it out of their mouths/eyes/ears.
My dog won t let me pet him?
We adopted our puppy, Milo, a little more than a month ago. He s about 16 weeks old right now. He LOVES belly rubs. If you start petting him he will roll over so you can pet his belly. (Only for so long of he gets mad) BUT, he will NOT let you pet his back or head. He will squirm and walk away after 3 seconds in the petting. If you hold him and pet him he starts biting. This is the same with brushing him. Idk if he doesn t like to be touched? I mean when we brush him he only lets us brush his belly as well. Maybe he is hurt? I m really not sure but I m worried. He won t let us cuddle or lay wig him either. If you lay by him he will look at you like you re stupid as walk to the other side of the room. Maybe he doesn t like us? Idk but I need help.
Is is OK to masturbate with a hairbrush handle?
I have seen it used with great delight and positive results, by a number of females. A wide variety of other objects can be used with similar happiness: shower or bath faucets (the water!), electric toothbrushes, and especially designed cucumbers. Lots of other things, too, like bedposts, doorknobs (!), and corners of tables, and of course the good old washing machine (or dryer), that is, the vibrations of them. So a LOT of things have been tried (don’t try hot dogs), and some have failed. so be careful and clean, and most of all, discreet. You don’t want someone walking in and catching you with the Water-Pic between your legs.
How do you get static out of hair brushes?
Put your hand in a glass of water, and touch the brush in it. You'll fell the little snap, but it'll "de-charge" your brush. Do not use dryer sheets if you are sensitive to cleaners/agents, as most direct contact can irritate sensitive/allergenic skins. :)

Donate hair that has shed?
I have long, healthy, beautiful hair (hair stylists say so), and I would love to donate the hair that I shed. I know this is strange but I shed a LOT over the course of a day and think that over time I could have plenty to donate to a cause. Do all hair donations need to come as a pony tail? Should I collect it all and then make a pony tail out of it?
Lab/husky Mix sheds like crazy?
huskies are well known for shedding.. I currently have a pure bred husky girl and a husky mix girl. my pure bred blows her undercoat in the spring and fall and its a TON of hair.. the husky mix blows her undercoat as well twice a year but its not as much as the other.... brushing & bathing does help alot. when bathing we brush first, bathe and then brush again.. while the hair is wet it clumps and usually will come out easier.. neither of our girls likes the bath or the brushing so it takes patience and time to do.. another point ..discuss this with your vet as many have different opinions.. both of our vets have recommended shaving our huskies in the summer due to the thickness of their coats ... which would help with the shedding problem...we've personally chosen not to shave them (after much research on the breed) as it will alter the looks of the coats and huskies were designed to have the coats that they have... not sure if your guy favors the husky or lab side but shaving a husky removes the outer hair obviously and this is where the huskys get the color & markings from..the under coat on every husky we've ever had is pure white... stock up on vacuum cleaner bags or get a bagless.. when shedding is at its worst i vacuum daily and do touch ups with a smaller vac thru the day. and i agree allergies arent the cause it just the nature of the husky part of your guy.
Calling all vets. Why was my dogs matted hair green?
It was mold unless he got into some green dye or paint. Try brushing him more than once a year.
When hair falls out in the shower what do you do with it? How do you keep the shower clean?
Causes of blockages in the drain hole, except for hair that falls out naturally, are fine debris, pellets of clothing, pet hair. Accumulating in the drain hole, they form a lump, preventing water from passing through the sewer pipe. A lump of dirt and litter does not allow water to flow out of the bathroom, collect further debris on itself, and, as a result, cause a foul-smelling clog. So, green cleaning remove the drain cap and clean the garbage under it. Initially, before removing the cover, it may seem that everything is clean. But visual inspection is deceptive. Under the cover of the drain hole accumulates a huge amount of hair. Especially with this drain holes with a cross plug. There are bathtubs in which stoppers are pre-installed. For this type of bath, before you clean the drain hole in the bathroom, you need to lift the stopper, unscrew the guide plate. Only after that, you remove the cork.
