you febreezed what?!

a conversation between me and max, my favorite post-doc:

max: well, sometimes i febreeze my dogs.
meisa: why? when? all over?
max: no, just their asses.
meisa: ?
max: well, you know, they have that spot on their asses, like a skunk, that emits a foul odor every once in awhile. so we febreeze them. and then everything seems to be okay.

hmmm...has anyone else heard of this? seems to me a foul smelling spot on the ass could be coming from poop. but he did seem fairly confident...

I dunno, but that is hilarious. I mean I hope its an ok thing...

For some reason I thought Fabreeze was not good for dogs. On the other note I am familiar with that which Max is talking about. Tends to be more of an issue with larger dogs I think.

I have had large dogs all my life and have never heard of, or smelled, such a thing. Maybe he should just give the dog a bath. I refuse to believe that febreeze is good for a dog.

that's the goofiest thing i've ever heard.

That is so...2004. Along with "starbucks" eventually becoming a verb.

ahh...but only the decaf for you, eh?

I guess I am out of it! Would someone enlighten me as to what "febreeze" is?

it's a new-fangled deodorizing spray. you spray it on furniture or maybe smoky clothes, or apparently dogs.

Thanks Meisa jan.
I feel so much "with it" now.

Maybe I should try it on my sternum?
