Two dollar solution

I trimmed Farley's feet today and the plan was to show you'all updated feet pictures.....instead I got distracted by.....my two dollar solution to keep Tess from slipping under gates and through fencing at my parents.

What was the solution you ask?



Here's another angle just so you can be sure what I've done.


Why yes, I DID attach Tess to a Walmart bouncy ball.

I've decided that puppies ARE fun. :)

It didn't drag on her at all, didn't slow her down, and most of the time she didn't even notice tagging along behind her. It did make her VERY visible and gave me those few seconds I needed to grab her if she started to go through the fencing into the neighbors.

The only one not howling in laughter and very appreciative of my genius was Farley.

Grumpy old woman.

She apparently thinks little white dogs attached to red balls are an abomination.

I took a video, but since I need to do something with my day besides wait for the video to upload to blogger, that will have to wait for another time.

Farley's feet got trimmed, but since nothing competes with a puppy, the camera didn't even come out of the case.

  3. Believe me, the 10 seconds that she thought it was chasing her were priceless.
