Purple Puppy Poopy Eater

 NEW COLLAR. NEW HARNESS. NEW LEASH!

NEW COLOR.................................NO, I DO NOT NEED A HARNESS, I IS A GOOD BOY! Mama says the harness has a handle, that allows her to hold me if needed. In 4 years she only had to hold me once on a walk. A tiny Chihuahua thought he was a lion and ran off his porch to attack me, I just stared, mama put her hand on the handle and backed me slowly up, while holding up her hand, saying Stay to the tiny dog that I could have swallowed without chewing. The owner was trying to capture it and all was well...Mama says I have zero aggressive genes and love all living things.

PS from Mama.. it would come in handy if he did start to chase a coon/possum or walk out in the street. a short handle for a big dog is easier that 80 pounds at the end of a leash. If you know me, you know I cover all What Ifs. 


Sing with me now!
He was a one-eyed, one-horned,purple puppy poopy eater..
(One-eyed, one-horned,purple puppy poopy eater..)
A one-eyed, one-horned, purple puppy poopy eater..
Sure acts strange to me
I said Purple Puppy Poopy Eater, what's your line?
And he said, "Eatin' purple poopy and I sure look fine"

This is what Mama calls me and I saw her show daddy the side hook for he leash, that allows a gentle tug when I try to heat POOP on our walks, if I go for poop, she says Heal and pulls be towards her. I no longer wander off, we walk on short leash with no sniffaramas. I can snap a possum poop quicker than a snake can strike.
I never did this poop thing until about 6 months ago.. 

we all like the new harness, its small and light and easy to slip over my head and I walk like a Prince, so says Mama. I heard her tell Daddy she was embarrassed at how my old rig looked at the ER.. we hope they never see this rig.

You are such a good dog Beau and how interesting about the poo? Love your new leash. It will be easier for Mama to hold you and protect you from small angry dogs.

It is pretty, Beau! And now you are royalty. I can see how this would work so much better than a leash to keep you close to Mama! And I remember this song so well, from before you were even born.

Pretty snazzy new gear. Poor Gibbs has had the same collar for far too long. Even worse, his collar, harness and leash don't match.

Hello,
I like Beau's new collar, leash and harness. The handle will come in handy for your Mama. You look good with the purple color.
HUGS, hope you all have a happy day!

I think purple suits your furs very well, Beau boy! I had a similar rig for angel Jade (we called it her bra...) and it was definitely a good way to walk with her. Hugs and wags, YAM-aunty xxx

You are a gentle giant dear Beau. The little aggressive dog needs to learn some manners, but you showed her some. I love the new collar, leash and harness and purple suits you well.Enjoy your day and walks with Mama.
Hugs and more hugs

What a fun and quirky post! Your playful storytelling brings a smile, and it’s great that you’ve found clever ways to keep your pup safe and well-managed. I just shared a new post; let me know what you think. Have a lovely weekend ahead!

Looks like a really nice harness!
We used to have a chocolate lab that did the poop thing too. :(

Love the purple collar! And Beau has developed Pica. Ask your Vet what can be done. It's something lacking in their diet...But I can't remember what.
hugs

A handle is useful, especially for older dogs who might have unsteady legs. It gives them confidence to be helped along.

We all sure hope the Doggie ER never sees that rig, too! Lucy was eating poop along with stones. I started feeding her more and she stopped, at least for now. We'll see what happens when we start taking more frequent walks in the sprint. In the meantime, she's enjoying putting on a pound or two. She's a gentle girl too, but when a neighbor bully-type dog escaped the fence last spring and attacked her and Xena she defended herself and us. I was proud of her!

BOL BOL Beau...now I have that original fun song in my head.
that little dog needed an attitude adjustment...Toto the mighty mini once charged a horse....YES a horse. I had his leash in my hand as I opened the back door. Out he went. He approached from the back so the horse had no clue what was nipping at his hind legs. Toto's dumb luck kept him from getting kicked into another county.

That's a really nice new harness, Beau, and #1 says the handle is a good idea for many reasons!

Woofs,

You're rockin' that purple Beau! Isn't it (the color) supposed to represent royalty?
Tell momma, her title had me singing before I got to the chorus. I loved that song! Ask momma if she'll sing us a video!

You're a good walker, Beau, but don't eat any poop. It's not good for you.

Kten said...

Lee is eating less poop these days and Phod more. Your fellow poop eaters

Chatty Crone said...

I think the poop must have undigested food in it and Beau smells it and then wants to eat it.

Mom sang the song along with you. Nothing but the best for Beau - you look very handsome in your new gear.
