Just Fetching

Oh my goodness. These aren't dogs, they are muppets. So cute!

Right now there is a lot of talk because recently a very famous dog trainer tragically lost the life of one her dogs when the "dog mode" on her Tesla malfunctioned and her back up method wasn't enough to save them. This situation is not rare and could happen to anyone.

I know summer is wrapping but in my years involved with dogs I've heard way too many stories like this... The a/c stops working, something hits the a/c turning it off, the car stops running, ect ect. There are so many possible ways leaving your dog unattended in a closed car on a hot day can go wrong. Just don't do it. If your dog is in the car and you need to walk away then you need to leave your doors open. If you can't leave your doors open and you can't bring your dog with you then just don't stop. Go home and make another trip out. It's not worth the risk. It's only a small inconvenience until the weather cools off again enough you could stop.

(And the photo is my summer dog show set up. Back wide open, crate and then stuff for prepping my pup. He won an adult herding group third a few months ago . Very exciting.)

Yay! New half door into the shop area. Its still needs a bit of finishing but it's so much better than the pet gate I had there before!

There are more changes I would like to make in here but this was one thing that was bugging me fixed. Maybe look at getting better lighting/bright white pot lights next.

Nap time after haircut for this young fella. 🩷
