Woof woof, my furry comrades! How’s every tail wagging today? What’s everyone been up to? Napping by the window, staring at passing squirrels, or just waiting for the next belly rub?

Mozart the Genius here! I’m about to drop some science on you xxl dog harness hoomans so get ready for it. Let’s talk drool.

Drool Cleanup for the Future Gone are the days of using a hand towel from the kitchen or the bathroom to wipe our sweet faces only to leave it sitting ...
