How can I pet my dog without getting a static electric shock?
It's very cold and dry lately and whenever I pet my dog we both get a shock. She is a siberian husky with thick fur. Every time...Ouch!

- moist your hands before contact with your pet. water/ moisturiser etc.
- Carry a spray bottle of warm water, and spray him before you pet him! ;)
- rub his entire fur coat with a couple of bounce fabric dryer sheets...it will take away most static and leave his coat smelling fresh.
- Use a dryer sheet to thoroughly rub your pet down. Then use conditioner in his next bath. Give him an extra pat for me.
- Yep,dryer sheets will work ! Just rub his coat down with one every couple days. It will make him smell good,too!
- Based on what I'm reading, a simpler solution seems to be to take off your rubber soled shoes that are building static electricity from your carpet.
- rub her and yur hands with a bounce (or other) dryer sheet, or put lotion on your hands before you pet her
