Stevie is a tail wagger personified!! We just simply clear the decks and let him go to it. We certainly don't live in a show palace and between the hair and muddy paws and frequent tail induced spills, my house is, shall we say, "lived in". One bonus from the tail-wagging, is in the summer if they are positioned just right, there is no need for a fan!! In winter however, keep those legs and feet well covered 'cause its cold!!!
