Shop Till You Drop: Harper cozies up in a shopping bag after a trip to the mall

It’s no secret that I’m a massive dog lover.  Of course I find their furry coifs, wet little noses and sweet spirits irresistible, but I love dogs even more for their loyalty, eagerness to please and incredible intelligence.

So, when someone was sweet enough to introduce me to the absolutely adorable website I Do Dog Tricks, Harper and I thought we would put our own video together to prove that my ten pound cutie is much more than just a fashion accessory.  She can stand her ground as a “real” dog who listens to her master, takes commands and feels proud when she follows direction.

We hope you enjoy our little video!

The dog park is a curious place that attracts peculiar people and their, often impossibly spoiled and wildly untrained, pets.  So, around Halloween, there’s no telling what crazies might come out to play.

In this video, Harper is enjoying a peaceful day at the park, playing a nice game of fetch with a sweet little boy.  When, out of nowhere, a Frenchie dressed in a ridiculous petunia costume gets the urge to mount the kid.

A few Post Scripts:  Be sure to have your volume up as our genuinely surprised reactions are worth hearing.  And, please don’t think we’re unchivalrous people – the boy’s mom turned around for just a split second and was a couple feet away from the mayhem so we didn’t think it necessary to leap to his rescue.  We did however think it necessary to share the hilarity of the episode with you.
