The Problem
I have always been a dog person. There has never been time in my life that I haven't had a fine four-legged companion. However my latest pooch, a hound named Chester Copperpot, has developed a sweet tooth for my wife and my toothbrushes. He also happens to be big enough to put his paws up on the sink and steal them, no matter how far back they are.

The Solution
Stash our toothbrushes up out of reach of the dog by making a a rack the attaches to the mirror. (this should put them out of reach of most any other critter that may spoil your implements of oral hygiene in the middle of the night)
