In my February 10th issue, I mentioned a lovely set of bed linens. The link included in that issue is no longer valid, and apparently, the sheets are no longer available in blue paisley...but there are tons of other gorgeous colors/patterns. The new link is: https://amzn.to/2TKPIoi
Thank you to GON Readers, Nancy Johnson and Mary Leigh, for alerting me. Much appreciated!

Hi Maria,

I liked your newsletter about how to clean the garbage disposal. I learned on a radio program that you should take the rubber cover out of the disposal and clean under the rubber seal and under the metal part of the disposal being careful not to cut your fingers. There is a lot under those pieces that create odors! Thank you for all you do.

Note from Maria Gracia

Thank you, Kaki, for your fabulous tip!

GON Readers, for safety reasons, never stick your hand down a garbage disposal. Something I do often is use citrus peels (lemon, lime, orange) to help keep the garbage disposal smelling fresh. Just cut them up, throw them in, and run the disposal.

However, as our reader Kaki mentioned, it's a good idea to clean the splash guard if there's an odor you can't get rid of. To do so, here's a method I found that was mentioned on the Today Show:

For removable splash guards: While wearing gloves, remove the splash guard, then scrub the top and bottom of the rubber guard with an old toothbrush (only used for cleaning) and soapy water. Rinse and replace.

For non-removable splash guards: While wearing gloves, first scrub the top side of the guard. Rinse. Then, lifting up the rubber guard a section at a time, scrub the underside of the splash guard until all slime and gunk are gone. Rinse.

No matter what your dog's problem behavior is, be it jumping, peeing inappropriately, aggression, pulling on the leash...or whatever, there is ONE SOLUTION that can help STOP this problem now.

The sad fact is, most dog trainers miss this solution entirely. They give you cookie cutting training programs. They use outdated and `mean' dominance techniques. Or worse yet, they have no qualifications and are complete phonies. So what's the answer to stopping your dog's behavior problems? In 5 simple words...

Discovering your dog's hidden intelligence.

Let me explain. More intelligent dogs are better behaved. A more intelligent dog takes commands easier and understands what you need from them. The good news is, no matter how clever you think your dog is, you can unlock their hidden intelligence quickly and easily.

Don't waste a second longer coping with problem behaviors you don't need to be dealing with. Visit this link to learn more about Brain Training for Dogs:
