The tale of the microfiber dog cloth
When cleaning your smartphone becomes a pet protest
I’ve been an activist for many moons — petitions, Better Business Bureau complaints, Elite Yelp reviewer, bus rides to different states, taking knees and an election judge. I even went as far as being pro se in court — twice. But the tables have clearly turned in my household, and now it’s my Hound mix (Junee) who is pissed over a worthy cause.
She doesn’t give one damn about my work with the Animal Legal Defense Fund. She wants me to free this dog (a microfiber cloth for cleaning smartphones and computer keyboards) from animal abuse — apparently. Check out the videos to find out what happened.
The irony here is for two straight years, she’s torn apart every single plush toy I’ve ever given her. I got tired of wasting money in department stores and dollar stores, and solely give her hard rubber toys. It never occurred to me that she may spare a plush dog. We’ll see if she’s really about that activism life come Christmas!
