Making a dog sweater

I am finally doing something I wanted to do for a long time.
I always wanted to make myself a sweater from my sweet dogs fur.

So I am collecting.

I don't know a bout people in Israel that do that professionally so I am going to work with a company from the USA.

They called VIP Fibers
All i have to do is collect and send them the fur and a picture of my sweet doggie and they will make the yarn and even knit me a scarf or a sweater, I haven't decided what i want, yet.




So this company have all the instructions on how to collect your pets hair, how to storage it, how to ship it, how much you need to make a scarf or a sweater or anything your heart desires.

I started collecting, my dog is actually falling a part and if I started collecting years ago I could redo my wardrobe every year with his fur only :)

So, all of you dog lovers, or any other pet, this is a very nice idea, it is human, you are not hurting your dog, you are only using the hair that falls of your dog or the hairs you cut from it.

I never cut my dog's hair, he doesn't need it, but I am brushing him everyday, and collecting the fur from the brush.

This can be a very beautiful souvenir from your dog to you

Note: If you don't have a dog you can buy dog yarn from them too.

My baby is sick


My sweet little dog is sick, last week we visited the vet and he gave him a treatment for flees. the usual treatment we give him every other month, the problem was that the dog started scratching, and scratching, and on Saturday we noticed that his whole body was red and he injured himself from scratching all the time.

So, the first thing I did is to put the collar on his head to stop him from biting himself, but it didn't help he kept scratching with his legs, so we put socks on his legs, but my dog is smart, he took the socks off, so I tried pants, well you can realize that he is very smart and he took them off too, you can't imagine how happy he was after he too the pants off.

In the evening his condition got worse, his had fever, and just lay there with no mood, and we took him to the vet.

before we went to the vet I read his all file again, I keep a record of everything, and I noticed a pattern, every time the dog got flee treatment, he started to scratch, the difference was that this time is was bad, very bad, and I mentioned that to the vet, and read the dog's file too, and agreed with me:

My sweet dog had a very bad allergic reaction to the treatment.

We took a very good care of him, he got a shot and antibiotics, and his fever is fine, and he is happy again :)

and when my dog is happy I am happy

This experience was very frightening for me, but it's over and that's the most important thing.

Help thief

I know, they look like angelgs.

This is only a disguise

You ask yourself what do I mean?

Well, Friday, I am starting to prepare lunch and I know I took some sausages from the fridge and put it on the counter. I went to the pridge again, and than to the cabinet, on my to the cabinet I saw my to lovely angels licking their faces and hiding under the kitchen table, I took a knife, and there was NOTHING to cut.
Those thieves , I mean this thief, "Hetzi" ( the bigger one) took the sausages from the counter, and shared them with this other criminal!
and they knew they are doing something wrong, but they looked at me with does puppy eyes, how can I be mad at them?

What can I do without Harry Potter?

Last night I finished reading Harry Potter.
I read the whole 7 books again, I think it was the third time.
It's sad, I know, a lot of Harry Potter fan agree with me, It let you drift the a whole new world for a few minutes/hours a day, and live in a magic world.
I noticed that it took me longer to read the last book, I just didn't want it to end again.
So now I decided to take a brake, i know it hard, but there are more thing out there than Harry Potter (please don't shout at me :) )
I have to many new books i bought and I didn't have the time to read, so i will ketch up with my reading, and after I'll finish these books, I'll go back and read some other favorite books, by J.R.R Tolkien, the Hobit and the Lord of the Rings, it's been to long since I read them.
And than I'll read Harry Potter again, I know that I'll see things in different perspective. 3 time, I read the whole 7 books 3 time, and each time was different, and much more enjoyable.

I guess than now, after i am done with my "obsession", I can have time for more things, other than books, like doing jigsaws and Japanese logic puzzles, which i neglected for a while, as you probably know i am a conceptis puzzles pixie (this word is also from the magic world/Harry Potter world) and there is a lot of work in this area too.

today I started to read a new book, in Hebrew for a change, and it called 'the jewish dog" by Asher Kravitz, and it is being told from the point of view of a white dog with a black spot a round his eye, living with a jewish family.

Well this is my day off, so i am going to read some more, do a puzzle or too, and than walk the dogs, my too sweet hyperactive dogs.

Have a nice day.
