If someone asks me what I am wearing today, I’ll say jeans and a sweatshirt. If they ask me what I wore yesterday, I’d say jeans and a sweatshirt. If they ask me what I’m wearing tomorrow, I’d say jeans and a sweatshirt. I think you get the picture – I’m a “jeans and a sweatshirt” type of gal, because they’re comfortable, casual and look particular good on my frame and figure. Of course, when I am going to a meeting or other formal event, I’ll dress appropriately. After all, I don’t think my cousin Crystal would look kindly on me if I showed up at her wedding this weekend in jeans and a sweatshirt – unless, of course, I was also wearing my pearls!
Dog collars come in a variety of different materials and, depending on the type, serve different purposes. The main use for dog collars is to keep control of the dog, especially for walking purposes. The most common type of collar is the flat collar, which either uses a buckle or a quick-release mechanism to prevent the dog from being choked in emergency situations. Slip collars are usually made of chain or nylon and include a ring at one end to allow for a loop to be made that goes around the dog’s neck. A third type of collar is the head-halter, which is designed similarly to a horse halter. Head-halters are designed to go around the back of the neck and over the muzzle. With this type of collar, the dog-owner has more control over the dog than he/she would with a traditional dog collar. Dog collars are also often fitted with identification tags, in case the dog gets lost and the owner needs to be notified.
My favorite TV show is one that you can only find in re-runs on certain cable networks. It’s “The Waltons,” and it was produced back in the 1970s. The series is about the Walton family who grew up on a mountain in rural Virginia during the depression and the days leading up to World War II. What makes me love this show are the family values and work ethic it consistently displays in every episode. Told through the eyes of the oldest son, there is always a moral to the story by the end of the show, and love does conquer all, even when the ultimate tragedies befall John Walton and his family. The show is also available on DVD for at-home enjoyment. It is family drama at its best.
Aren’t dog pajamas simply the cutest things on the face of the Earth? If I had a dog, which I don’t, I would definitely be going to the nearest pet care store and picking up a few sets of these. I mean, think about it. People refer to them as “man’s best friend,” and consider them to be members of their families. Is there any other member of your family that you would allow to be without a nice set of flannel plaid pajamas on a cold winter morning? Think of Christmas morning. Everyone is gathered around the tree at the crack of dawn in their best holiday jammies. Who would want their dog to be left out of the mix? I know that I wouldn’t. Don’t get me wrong, if you can barely afford to put pajamas on you children’s backs you should probably rethink the dog pajama purchase. In fact, you should probably rethink having a dog in the first place. Nevertheless, I’m definitely a fan of dog pajamas for large dogs. I think they’re great.
