Sometimes I think we might have mold in our house. We live in the dry desert, but we use a swamp cooler to cool the air, and it’s moist and pushes water rich air all over our house. I would love to get mold testing PA, and these guys use dogs to find the mold! [...]

Okay just let me start this post with … when I was living on my own, before my husband (then my boyfriend) moved in, my dogs did not beg. But they know what they can get away with, and with whom. This pack is, actually, no longer allowed since Chase and Jessi have had some [...]
