Perfect Gift for any Dog Mom – Dog Breed Handbags

Pretty Purse for Dog LoversI saw this handbag and I just had to post about it.  I love a new purse as much as the next woman, but these things are just so ridiculously cute that it makes me almost wish I had a pure breed dog.

For some reason they just don’t sell one of the breed German Shepherd/Husky/Springer Spaniel mix.  :)   Don’t worry though, I put a link at the bottom of the post for the Mommy’s who are lucky enough to snag this purse.

The purse is a bit pricey at $79.98, but I can’t imagine a doggy Mom alive that wouldn’t absolutely love it.  The purse is full of detail, even the zipper has a breed specific charm on it.

Dog Breed Charm on ZipperThe purse is available for dog Moms of the following breeds: Bassett Hound, Beagle, Bichon Frise, Boston Terrier, Boxer, Bulldog, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Chihuahua, Cocker Spaniel, Corgi, Dachshund, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Jack Russell Terrier, Black Lab, Yellow Lab, Maltese, Miniature Pinscher, Papillon, Pomeranian, Poodle, Pug, Rottweiler, Schnauzer, Scottish Terrier, Sheltie, Shih-tzu, Springer Spaniel, Westie, Yorkshire Terrier.

Easter Egg Hunts – Fun for Dogs of all ages

Lucas is a german shepherd/husky/springer spaniel mix breed.All dogs have an excellent sense of smell and Lucas has never met a holiday he didn’t like.   Lucas discovered his passion for Easter egg hunting when he was 3 years old.  Nothing gave him more excitement than finding hidden treats all around his yard.

Now at age 13, Lucas moves a bit slower from arthritis (after having a TPLO done on both knees), but you can still see the excitement in each of his steps and with every Easter egg he finds.

Dog Agility Sports – Obstacle Course Competitions

Dog agility is a sport in which a handler directs a dog through an obstacle course in a race for both time and accuracy.  The handler can’t touch the dog or obstacles.  Only voice and hand commands are allowed.

A basic agility course is run on an area of apporoximately 100 by 100 feet and has numbered obstacles (tire, jumps, weave poles, a-frame, tunnels), laid out by an agility judge in a design of their own choosing.  The numbers represent the order in which the obstacles are to be completed.

Agility courses are made difficult enough that a dog could not complete them correctly without human direction.
