How do I keep dog hair off my polar fleece jacket?

hp_n5495 asked:


My dog, a german shepherd, sheds seemingly year round. I have a green polar fleece jacket that I wear frequently, but it attracts hair from my dog like nothing else. The only way I’ve found to minimize the hair problem is to run my jacket through the dryer with like five of those fabric softener sheets. This methods works, but not completely and the effect lasts only for a few days at most.

To remove the hair, I just use tape, but with this much hair I run through tape quickly and it all comes back shortly thereafter.

What are some other methods to keep myself from looking like an idiot covered in dog hair?

Mandy asked:


My dogs eat the Ol’ Roy dry dog food from those big bags, and it seems fine. But when this bag is all used up, is it okay to buy the same thing?
I just want to know what brands are contaminated and to avoid getting.
Thanks.

I would like to know in a multi-dog household if there were more issues with food aggression or dog to dog aggression around the food bowls? So if they were on table scraps for their meals what feeding behaviors did you see?

What is the best dog food for dogs with sensitive stomachs?

Written by gitterdun on July 22, 2009 – 1:06 pm -

Reagan’s Mommy asked:


Both of my dogs tend to vomit, vets say there is nothing wrong with them, but I have heard changing their dog food to one for sensitive stomachs may help. Do you have any advice?
Neither of my dogs eat fast or too much. Both are very healthy weight wise. Female Husky 50 pounds and Male Pekingese is 14 pounds.
They were eating a holistic dog food but they stopped around the time of the pet food recall. They just wouldn’t eat it anymore. So we switched them to Iams.
