[nagdu] Dog Deodorizing and other important things

[Dan Weiner]

Interesting...I was in a dorm of nine by twelve in Ohio and there was no dog
smell, what we had was an amazing amount of dog hair though--lol.
I was not as conscientious as you, probably a bit of a slob in the room
cleaning arena.

I'm pretty sure about no dog smell because I had a lot of fellows students
or staff who were pretty critical of every dammed thing I did wrong and no
one mentioned that--lol--they just mentioned the dog hair.

So, I'm wondering if you're more sensitive to it because you might have not
been around dogs or whoever is commenting might be just a tad too critical?

Only thing I could say is, and I'm not being sarcastic, but open a a window
for a few minutes to air the place out as closed in areas get stuffy, or
maybe there's an air vent that's clogged or something or a filter that needs
to be cleaned, it happens.

Yours,

Dan the man, carter the nut

It's currently only 19 and windy out. I know because I just had to take the
dog out. I live in a dorm, and I am wondering if anyone has suggestions to
cut down on the dog smell. I vacuumed every day, brush the dog daily, use a
topical coat conditioner and deodorizer, have specially designed dog wet
wipes to spot clean him, and the dog was bathed just before I got him on
Tuesday the 3. He still smells. I am in a single dorm room about 8 by 15 so,
very small, however, quite large for a dorm.



The dog himself does not have a strong smell to him; however, if you are
close to him, you can smell him. His breath is the worst. Any and all
deodorizing tips are welcome.



My dog is terrified of the vacuum, so I kind of feel bad vacuuming every day
but I do so without fail.



Just to add to the mulligan stew of aromas in my dorm room I stepped in 
someone else's dog S**t today. Suggestions for cleaning that off my shoos. I

scrubbed them with a bristle brush, and ran them threw the washer machine, I

picked them up, and I can still smell it.



Thanks,

Mark
