This Puppy Video is amazing.  It has inspired me to do more with the pups that camp with me…of-course nothing is this easy but it is possible to train your pups, achieve results, and have fun! Notice all the terriers in this video–often very smart but not always very obedient (Remember, I live and love a Jack Russell!)

This is a cool video, for sure!  However, I do have a few questions…how  exactly do we know this killer whale wants to play with this pup? Did anyone actually see her offer a “whale bow” and while I am all for great video’s and picture’s I wonder if it might be a little optimistic to watch your precious fur lean over a boat railing to engage in play with a killer whale…while you shoot a video. Who knows this Whale might have been doing the Great Whale Hungry Dance and your pup would become the pupta….

My Advise…don’t let your pup play with strange whales and while I am on the subject, sharks either!

Camp Is Good, Hope you are too!

The Ridgeback pup did not get the advantage often but when he did–the Lab pup would scream for help.

When I discovered an ad for Poop Freeze, http://www.poopfreeze.com/ I thought I had found the solution to summer pooper scooping! Chicago winters offer this solution naturally, as frozen poop is easier and cleaner to pick up off the rocks and wood chips that cover our yard.

I ordered a can of Poop Freeze for $11.00, and could hardly wait for it to arrive! When it did, I immediately unwrapped it, read the directions, and prepared to give it a try. The first time, instead of frozen poop, the result was mushy, cool poop. Not to be daunted, I tried again. Operating on the principle that more is better, I sprayed for a longer time. The poop was cold when I picked it up (with the plastic bag - I feel you need to know how I knew it was cooler) and perhaps more pleasant to pick up than warm poop, but it was still not the promised frozen poop. I’m no quitter though, so at the first sign of diarrhea, I grabbed that can and faced the mess with high hopes … only to have my hopes dashed once again, with a bigger mess to clean up.

I called the company and they explained - with complete sincerity! - how I needed to position the can directly down, angling only my arm so the spray hit the poop before the poop hit the ground. I must at all cost avoid spraying too early or too late! Timing, it seemed, was everything.

I quit.

I can be grateful for one thing, though. I did not buy the Poop Freeze Carry Tote.

P.S. Although the Poop Freeze did not live up to its promise, I did walk away from this experience with this odd but useful tip which I’m happy to share with you: A can of compressed air (held upside down) will freeze poop. If you ever need to remove poop from carpeting, blast it a couple of times with compressed air and remove it with a flat tool. I’m told a less expensive option is hairspray, but I wouldn’t know since spraying poop with hairspray felt strange. Of course, if you happen to try the hairspray, I would love to know if it works!

I found this product while “Twittering” and it looks like it might be a winner for those of you who frequent areas where there may be ticks. If a tick is lurking you will be ready with this handy product. The web site is well done, and there is even a video explaining the product. The colors are cool to–check it out http://www.tickkey.com/

No ticks lurking at camp, tho–so we are good and hope you are too! Enjoy a wonderful Memorial Day weekend and remember camp will be closed from June 13-June 23rd
