What did you do in the garden today?

I'm still using the original Dyson Pet Upright vacuum. She's 19 years old and still works like a dream. That dumb thing cost like 1400$ when she came out. I'll run her til she quits. She needs a new beater bar (the brushes are worn short) and I'm due for a new filter, but otherwise grand.

They are solid machines. We bought ours at Costco paid 269? it was on sale there .. had a hoover but no carpets here and it was useless

I think ours is a dyson Pet too (3 dogs, 2 double coaters), but we use it a lot less now that we're in a hardwood floored house. We just sweep with a broom instead. Only one rug in the house.

I also started playing with the idea of a chicken moat.

Me too. Kept me awake for an hour last night.

I think ours is a Dyson ball or something like that.... I do have a big area rug in our living room but our entire house is either hardwood floors or tile. I hate carpet....so nasty. At least I can take the area rug outside to be cleaned. The Dyson is AWESOME at picking up just about everything on the hardwood floors.

The animal hair really gets to hubby.... He hates it. He grumbles about it almost every day. But the kids and I would be heartbroken if our furbabies were banished outside. They are part of the family.

Yes, I agree.... We have a good sized house. Lots of room to spread out and give animals and people their space. I would not add any more.... I knew the dog was going to shed a lot but I don't think I was quite prepared for this much hair. She is a good dog though and we adore her so we live with the pain.....

Maybe make a long skinny movable chicken tractor and move it every few days? I want to make one the same width of my rows but I doubt I’ll get to it this summer.
