Housekeeping


I have found a very simple method to damp-dust my house. Take a large shagging dog and completely soak him in warm water in the shower. Cover him in some coconut scented dog shampoo and then thoroughly soak him again.  By this time said dog will be so mad that he will dive out of the shower and throw himself all over the house, giving your floors and stairs and all low lying shelves and walls a jolly good wash and wipe. Next time I'll build a ramp and he can do the windows too. 

He usually doesn't mind having a bath but I think he took offence at the girly shampoo.

  1. Looks about time for Jakey boys haircut. Skye trimmed last week and sulked for days afterwards.

  3. Jakes look says it all - my nephew had a little longhaired 'mop'of a dog that he used to send under the beds to collect all of the floor fluff on his fur. He would then put him outside to run around until it had all gone - mission accomplished.

  4. A bit like a car wash on legs?

  5. Well, Jake, at least it was DOG shampoo as opposed to the human white grapefruit and mosa scented stuff Paloma had to endure. The look on your face is priceless.

  6. This made me laugh out loud at the mental pictures I had of Jake shaking and woofing and feeling put upon! Thanks for sharing. Peace.
