Weekly wag

In this weeks round up I found a rather topical article on Helping dogs fight fireworks fear. Barley gets the shakes whenever she hears fireworks (yes, the irony that she is from gun dog stock does not escape us) and it’s something we have tried many methods to ease. We’ve managed to get her to a point she doesn’t jump behind furniture at least now. It’s a time to think about the waggy tailed ones and the fact that a lot of them don’t overly appreciate our fascination with whizz bang fireworks. Whilst I don’t advocate sedatives I have heard of some very severe doggy fear reactions.

Here was me worried about Dillon biting through cables, turns out I should have armour plated his bum rather than my cables as a dog pees on power cable and takes out 148 homes.

We’ve had doggy burberry and now doggy pent houses with the $100,000 Dog House. I give up I really do. When will we stop as human’s humanising our dogs to the stupid point and dressing them up in bunny costumes because we deem it cute. I can just see with a smile on my face some idiot buying such a house and their little darling thinking what a great chew toy it was… there is a doggy god. On that note I was appalled at the worst Halloween costume in the world at our local pet store which now stocks a pumpkin dog costume. I will be in the corner banging my head on the wall now.
