Cabana is a GRATE Dog!



I know, I'm SO corny. Every time Cabana and I walk over this grate by our house, I think about "grate" puns. So I had to get it out of my system. Sorry. But now it's over and done, and no one needs to be punished by my (questionable) sense of humor any longer.

Many other raisers commented on my Tuesday Topics 6 post that I should let Cabana run around on her own more. Let her romp around, sniff trees, and have more "free puppy time". So I was excited to try out my new retractable leash with Cabana this morning at a nearby park. I went to a few stores and saw that they were about $50 for the really long ones--pricey! So I got this one on eBay instead for half the price and free shipping (thanks, disabledjim!). It's 24 ft long, which I thought was really long--but after using it today, I wish it were still a little longer! But Cabana loved running around in the park. She ran circles around me, so I had to turn in circles to keep from getting tangled. It made me so dizzy! I came home and told my daughter about it, and she said, "Why don't you just pass the leash from hand to hand behind you instead of turning in circles with Cabana?" I said, "...oh...good idea...." Hey, I don't have a Masters degree for nothing!

Here's Cabana looking pooped and happy!

Now, I'm just waiting for my other eBay purchase to arrive--the Furminator! Thanks to Brittany and chloud9 for that tip. Gotta love that eBay!
