    At least they did back in the ’50s. Who says life is better now? Can’t imagine being able to mail order a burro in the 2010s…

    I like the part where it says,”Everyone will want to pet your burro”….

    Forget the burros, the Mess Less Pet is extra mousey!

    But does it glow under blacklight?

    I would guess that’s actually flea dipped, or something of the sort. You don’t want to give your kid a nasty, bug infested burro…

  6. j says:

    Probably means “flea dipped,” if I had to guess.

    Not to belittle your efforts. Love Criggo. But this one ain’t so bad :)

    “Dipped” or “Dipping” are terms used for a lot of furred livestock referring to chemical baths used to get rid of all sorts of hair and skin-based parasites. Generally the livestock are herded through a chute that descends into a shallow pool of the chemical and then ascends into another corral or pen that then only contains “dipped” animals.

    Not to be a killjoy here, but the “dipped” refers to an application of liquid pesticide to kill fleas, ticks, etc…

    Dipped in pesticide, alas.
