      Also keep your pup away from breathing in those fumes! As nasty as they are for you, even more intense for a tiny lil body

      If you haven't bought one I have one for sale. I bought it for my EX for work and he never used it. It's still in the plastic and comes with the respirator cartridges..

I mean it mustn't be since they use it on people's skin... Like the stuff they use to make masks n stuff. Anyway I'm going to start my rug making journey with that..
