Well, while we're at it, there's also thiss stuff available in Switzerland: 
http://www.roesch-swiss.ch/L-neu!LinuxVollwaschmittel.htm . Now this is not a 
dog, but rather washing powder called Linux. What I haven't been able to find 
out so far is if any clothes that come into contact with this will 
automatically be put under the GPL.

To make things even more complicated, a well-known and really big software 
company seems to have started selling ... well ... fabric softener in 
Germany. At least the following photo suggests that:

Looks like the BSDs are very far behind on the market for "home cleaning 
applications"! ;-)
