Good Dog Smell Test
A colleague gave me a new product to try today from Hillhouse Naturals: Good Dog odor neutralizing diffuser. Immediately, I loved the fact that Hillhouse Naturals is an environmentally conscious company and the packaging was printed with 100% wind power. And with a couple of key tag lines like “100% Natural Tail Waging Good” and “Experience the calming scent of lavender, amber and vanilla,” I thought I’d give it a go.
Of course with two dogs, a cat and a husband, I’m sure my home could use an odor neutralizing diffuser—although most pet owners become immune to the pet smells of their own home. My mother is usually my pet smell-tester; each time she visits, I ask “does the house smell like dogs?” I will always picture her face as a kid when she’d say, “That house smells like dog,” with a curled upper lip which spoke volumes of its own. She and my dad happen to be coming in for a visit in two weeks so the new diffuser arrived at just the right time to do its job.
Since the combination of lavender, amber and vanilla smell great to me, I decided to do the smell-test on the dogs and my husband. Interesting response from the dogs: Ryder, the 12 year old was okay with it; however, Tahoe, the blind 13.5 year old, well, not so much - it sent him walking in circles trying to get out of my home office as fast as he could. Oh, well. If it makes my Mom happy, then I don’t have to worry about people leaving my house with that curled upper lip.
