Angel dog Alex liked to snooze on the couch after reading.

If you have dogs, you will have dog hair in some of the strangest places.

A dear dachshund-terrier mix, Alex, loved to come up behind me while I would have the refrigerator door open.

“Get your head out of the refrigerator,” I would say. He obeyed, but I occasionally I would find fur near the vegetable drawer on the bottom.

Should dogs be allowed on your furniture? Mine always have that right. I have plenty of slipcovers and throws and wash them regularly. Animals get sick, and those coverings have saved my cushions many times.

My dogs are family members and can sit or lie anywhere I do. However, there have been times when I have to yell “No sit” when my husband comes in from the garage.
