Re: [RC] living 'dirty'... - Sharon LevasseurYes, in my opinion the dishwasher (top rack) is the best method. And yes, I use the same detergent. In fact, I usually put it right in there WITH the dishes! LOL -Sharon L. Quoting Barbara McCrary <bigcreekranch@xxxxxxxxxx>: Is this the best method for washing Biothane tack? I've never tired that. Do you use regular dishwasher detergent? Or just water? I usually just soak the tack in a bucket of hot water with laundry or some other kind of detergent . The dishwasher sounds really easy, and one could run a cleanup cycle afterwards before using it for dishes.

Quoting Pvan19@xxxxxxx:well - couldn't agree more with you! Our slogan here is that we live dirty but happy! Now ofcouse we were both raised by parents who thought this as well - I haven't got a single baby or toddler picture of myself where I am not sleeping in the dog basket, sitting in the rabbit house eating out of their bowl or otherwise jumping in cow pats.. Our only time off work is accident related ( generally horse accidents although I recently managed to almost poke out my eye while pruning a vicious bush in the garden hihi) We've had people over to stay at our house who would insist on washing their hands EVERY time they touched an animal - now with our horses, chickens & irish wolfhounds that was basically all the time.. what a life ?! I drink out of the horse water troughs as well - will share a sticky banana with them each starting at one end and ending up in the middle ( well sort of) - am happy to serve up crème brulée in a bowl recently used to feed the chicks.. ( after being in the dishwasher but that's also where I was all the bits & stirrups hehe) We are WAY more resistant to germs than a lot of people we know - don't care about our appearance... so we can concentrate on the more important things in life! I draw the line though at wet irish wolfhound kisses in the face after they've been licking the roosting bars in the chicken coop ( hé mum, lollipops!) cheers PaulineRidecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
