I got laminate flooring a year ago all through the house because of our 4 saint bernards.....w ell I started out just using a wet jet but wanted them to shine...so I started using a product called Quick shine.....now I have spots (mostly around doors and corners) where I'm sure don't get scrubed as well every time and also from doggie drool that doesn't get found right away.....it has a buildup....and it is impossible to get clean....I've tried steam cleaning also....is there anything that I can use to get these spots clean....it just makes my floors look dirty when they aren't. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated... .I love my laminate floors but I hate the spots. Thank you

We had a recipe of different oils mixed together to make
a flea treatment and we lost it.  Does anyone happen to
have a recipe?  Thanks in advance.

General Board for Big Dogs with Big Paws / any ideas?????
« on: December 14, 2008, 04:56:13 am »
hi guys.....early this morning our six year old female saint
was sleeping (I think) on the floor and she began to kick around.......w e could not "wake her up"  she was in whatver it was really deep.  my hubby and i both were talking to her and rubbing her trying to see what was wrong....it was like she didn't even know we were there....it lasted i would say a good minute....then we finally were able to get her to notice us and we got her up...she walked around kind of "dazed".  My daughter said that this had happened before
when she was sleeping with her ...she thought that she was
just having a bad dream......it just seemed like more than a dream though.  should we be concerned????

about a week ago...we learned of an outside dog up the street
that had been crying alot.....my niece lives across
the street from it...so i went down one day and we were
sitting inside her house...window s closed....and we heard
the dog crying....we called the aspca immediately but
they said they couldn't investigate without a physical
address.....th ere was no house number...and thats what they
wanted....noon e even knew their names......tri ed the post office   they weren't allowed to give any info...searche d
online...nothi ng....another neighbor called them they told them the same thing....this neighbor could see the dog from
her back porch and said that there was alot of "stuff" hanging from the dogs rear....she told them this and they still needed a physical address.   so...we called back and said,,,listen....my niece lives right across the street and her address is........and they live in between house #....
and house #......  still nothing....by this time we are getting so upset.....so i call a lady i know not far away
that worked at a shelter for years and tell her the situation and ask if she could make a phone call and let them
know justhow serious it was......so yesterday   finally....the ASPCA came to the house...of course the people wouldn't answer the door...they left a note saying that they had to get medical attention for the dog last night.(neighbor snuck up to read note)
they would be back in the morning to check on it...well, they came back and took the dog   THANK GOD!   it's intestines were hanging out its butt....how would that happen? were they kicking it?   Do they really get that many
false calls that they won't come without a physical house address?   I am just so glad  that they finally came and
the dog can get the medical attention it needs now...Please
say a prayer for the little guy........

(alot of sniffing going on)LOL

last night we treated our dog for fleas with Bio spot...all were fine...today when I came home for lunch...Duke won't
get off of the bed....not for a walk...not for food...nothing ....(these are his favorite things)  He ALWAYS
meets us at the door  real excited......n ot today....he went out to the porch for awhile because I had my son check
on him....when I got home ..he is back on the bed....won't
get up....he is giving me kisses so he is aware.....
Could the Bio spot have caused this??? a reaction?
