Ozone Machine

Do you know that stinky smell you get when you have hockey gear? Well i play in net and today i cleaned my gear.

I borrowed an Ozone Machine from a good friend of mine, apparently ozone is used to kill mold and bacteria ... I put all my goalie gear in my bad and put the machine into it. I left the machine on for about 40 minutes and then aired my gear for about 10 min outside.

When i first took out the gear it smelled like chlorine, after i aired it out for a while i noticed that the stink was gone ... so apparently it works! It smells a lot better than when i first put it in the bag.

I think they have one of those machines at Sportsexchange, some people say they are great some say it doesn't work. so far it has worked quite well for me, but we will see in a few days.

On another note, i cant believe how big Kodi is getting. She seemed a bit heavier when i picked her up. When we first got her she was only about 6 pounds, when we took her to the vet a week and a half after she was 13 pounds and now i think shes about 20!!! I hope she doesn't double her weight every week or else she will be as big as Clifford the red dog!!.
This week was her second week at puppy school, sadly enough i think she thinks shes a human. She doesn't really like to play with the other dogs. Maybe shes scared because she is the youngest and smallest in her class ... We took her to a good friend of ours who also owns a dog, and she seemed to be a bit better there.
Yesterday a few friends of ours also brought their dogs over to the same friend and they played well together ... Kodi wasn't as scared but she was also the biggest ... hopefully thats all it is .. and she only scared at puppy school cause shes the smallest.
Its hard to know if dogs are just playing or if they are fighting ... sometimes it seems like they are playing really rough but they keep going back for more.
I wish i could read her mind!

Here is a short video of our puppy!!

Kodi is so cute! I wish I lived closer to Rmd so I could visit more often -- not that I'm inviting myself or anything. Totally not. :)

That is so awesome! I see now why people say that having a puppy is good practice for having kids. Cuz that's EXACTLY the same way you teach babies. They'll sleep, poo, eat, or burp if you give them some cheerios.
