Hi, My Name is Kate

 Spring cleaning just in time.  I have 2 dogs and lots of dog air that float
airborne into every nook and cranny!  Yikes, it drives me mad.  So now that it's warm out I am on a mission to groom my two lovelies and rid them of some unwanted winter hair.  

At home grooming saves me money and allows me to test out Eco-Me natural dog products.  The flea spray, which I mixed up months ago, maybe even last summer, is still going strong and smells amazing.  By mixing vinegar, water and Eco-Me Dog Blend essential oils I have a quick natural flea treatment.  The smell is wonderful:  a hint of lavender, lemongrass softens the citronella, which works great to fight little buggers.

After raking through my lab Samon and mix who-knows-what Lady, I remove all the extra hair, combo again and spray down with this light flea repellant.  I like to work it into the hair and bit.  Then they get a treat (of course) and lay out for a bit of sunbathing!  Ah the life of a dog.  

What's left behind could stuff a pillow, make a good birds nest or just go into compost or trash.... Can you compost dog hair?  Anyone know?

Okay now we are ready for spring!
