I posted this week about an innovative new dog leash from Mountain Dog Products that is made from recycled climbing ropes. Which got me to wondering about the various types of dog leashes my readers might be using.

Tuesday Top Ten: Reasons to Support Our 4-Legged Soldiers
Now that the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have been off the front page of the newspaper for awhile, it’s easy to forget we have brave men and women giving their lives for our freedom.

Saturday Survey: Your Doggie Car
If you saw yesterday’s post, you saw two ways in which someone showed their love of Alaskan Malamutes – a vanity license plate & the plate frame. And of course, we’ve all seen the ribbon magnets that say “I heart my whatever”. Does your car let people know that you love your dog? (I mean other than the dog fur all over the seats.)
Lovable Malamutes
Saw ths license plate at WalMart last night, and just had to share it. I’m not sure which is better – the plate itself or the frame! (If you can’t see the writing on the frame – it says, “My Alaskan Malamutes are smarter than your honor student!”)
Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!

Did you ever wonder what kind of mail a blogger gets? Aside from wonderful notes from readers, I also get stuff like this.
Stamps for Shelter Pets
Did you know you can now help out shelter pets simply by mailing a letter? Maybe it’s time to take a break from e-mail and paying the bills electronically so you can use some stamps now available from the US Postal Service. According to their press release:
The U.S. Postal Service continued a 50-year tradition today with the dedication of its latest social awareness stamp — Animal Rescue: Adopt a Shelter Pet. The 44-cent stamps, on sale nationwide, feature photographs of five cats and five dogs from animal shelters and rescue groups.
“As a pet owner myself, I find this campaign enormously gratifying. Because of these stamps and the Stamps to the Rescue campaign, more people will learn about the plight of shelter animals,” said Joseph Corbett, Postal Service Chief Financial Officer. “More people, we believe, will adopt shelter animals, fewer people will abandon their pets, more people will spay or neuter their animals, and fewer animals will suffer.”
HALO, the holistic pet company partly owned by Ellen DeGenerous, has pledged to buy food for 1 million shelter animals during the stamps’ roll-out campaign.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
