Bob: You are absolutely on target -- having a large, shedding dog catapults one to a new level of messiness...no matter how much you sweep or vacuum, hair finds its way everywhere. It wends its way into corners, it meanders behind toilet bowls, it leap-frogs into beds and under pillowcases and into shoes and CD players and windowsills -- even contact lense cases! I think that dog owners become shameless pretty quickly. I mean, think of all the utterly disgusting but somehow endearing things that dogs do...when I get into a hairless, dirtless bed (i.e. at a hotel or a non-dog owner's house), my first instinct is surprise -- like, oh, so THIS is how sheets are supposed to feel :)
