| I swear, I think it's because they know we don't want them to have 'em.

| HaHa same problem here. But did you know if you polish/wipe the dog with them after a groom, they help a lot with static electricity? OK so the smell of Bounce isn't too bad, is it? |

| He he Bella and Chloe sit by the dryer waiting for one to fall on the floor. Chloe especially likes to roll and rub herself on them.

| I am sooooo extra careful with those now...Miko swallowed one last year and he got soooo sick. Bloody stools, vomitting, etc. Thank goodness he passed it in his stool...Those things are full of toxins. It was really scary. Please, make sure you throw them away immediately.

The smell will probably last until the next bath or until you use a scented coat preparation. Just smooth it on the dog's back, avoid the face. If you use a pin brush you could press it through the pins and brush the dog with it held in place. It's clearly not safe if ingested, as mentioned above, but I've been doing it for several years now without problems. Has a tendency to stop them playing with the sheets - must remind them too much of grooming time | |

| My Yorkie and Chi do the SAME thing. They are partners in crime. I try to be so careful about throwing them out before I bring the laundry up but sure enough if I miss one they play tug o' war and I have a mess. I kind of figured they were dangerous to ingest. I've also had them give me kisses with Bounce breath and later on found the remnants. |
