Today’s Tuesday Tip is for any pet owners that take their dogs to the dog park. When you’re at the dog park, you should always keep your dog’s leash close by and not on a table or hung from the entrance gate. You never know when a situation may occur when you’ll need to leash your dog quickly so it’s better to have it with you. Of course, playing fetch isn’t very easy with a leash in one hand so our Tuesday Tip this week is to keep a carabiner clip on the loop end of your dog’s leash for dog park trips. When you’re at the dog park, just hook the carabiner to the leash clip, and then you can wear the leash over your shoulder like a messenger bag for hands free play!

I hope you found this Tuesday Tip helpful. Zuma and I are off to the dog park!
