Wow!  This is really something to Blog about.  Talk about a Handy Helpful Hint!  This is, perhaps, the best one we have heard in a long time, and I for one am dying to have my Gram do this to stupid Bob. 

One of our clients was home and watching her television machine and Ms. Martha Stewart came on with a whole bag of something called home remedies.   I think our client already knew about how a lot of them worked, but this one was NEW NEWS! (Some people call that a News Flash, but I prefer NEW NEWS, cause it really sounds important).

Did you know that 50% of the dogs that are afraid of thunder storms (even before the storm starts) are afraid because of static electricity?  I guess something happens in the strange realm of the air that is around us but we can't see it.  You know what I mean?  Dont you?
Since air is always floating around, but we can't really see it, but it must be there because we are breathing it and we haven't died yet, so it must be o.k.  You know?

Well anyway, you don't need to understand how this works.  I'm not saying that you are stupid like Bob, but what I mean is that there are some things that work, but we don't know how they work.  This is one of them.

Before a thunderstorm starts ...  when you feel it is coming or heard the radio person tell you about it, then take your dog and rub him or her all over with one of those soft little sheets that you put into your dryer with your wet clothing.  Voila'  Your pooch will no longer be afraid because there is no static electricity jumping around on his fur.

So.  Where is that stupid-head Bob?  I have to get my Gram to try this.  Do we have any dryer sheets?  Get a big one, cause Bob ain't no small dog any more.  I'm serious.  Mom, can you call up the news man and ask him to make some thunder?  We have to get going and see if this works.

Oh boy, I am excited to watch.
This is great.

Love,
Princess Daisy & Stupid-Head Bob, the Test Case
