9. My mom rubs a dryer sheet over the dog when she grooms him

I dislike the chemicals in dryer sheets, but will use it once in awhile when the static is awful. We live in a dry, cold climate and winters are insanely dry, even with a humidifier on our furnace. When you cannot groom the dog because the hair is sticking everywhere (to the clippers, to your face and glasses) a dryer sheet works wonders.
