Afternoon at Lake Balboa

We took Mumble and Chopper to the park at Lake Balboa this afternoon. They had a great time, and we had a lovely picnic under a tree. Mumble was most interested in trying to chase all of the ducks, while Chopper was most interested in trying to get into the river. In fact, Chopper enjoyed the river so much that he didn't even mind falling into it :)

Here are some photos from the afternoon:

Great Deal on Gentle Leader Harness












Doggyloot has a fantastic deal today!   Currently, they are offering the Gentle Leader harness from Premier for only $15!  That is a fantastic price for a really incredible product.

I have found the Gentle Leader to be the very best option amongst the harnesses / halters on the market, and I have tried many of them.  I think that Premier's other product, the Easy Walk, is also a good product, but for Mumble and me, the Gentle Leader really works the best.  It helps me to keep Mumble from dragging me down the street when he decides to pull on the leash to chase a squirrel or whatever, and also gives me good control over him if he "misbehaves" for whatever reason.

Now, I am not a person who believes that something like a harness should take the place of good training.  I don't think that you should view a harness as the "easy way out" rather than training a dog to walk nicely on a leash.  But this is the real world, and no dog is perfect, and a good tool that will help you without being negative to your dog is acceptable in my book! 

Check out the doggyloot deal to snatch yours up at a great price today!

Super-Mumble

Recently, I took this picture to post on a friend's Facebook page while she was in the hospital as a little humorous cheerfulness for her. Just thought I'd share it here...
