I have an Australian Red Heeler/Pit Bull mix. Guess I'm REALLY immoral and cruel, because after all, there's nothing that we can do to to give a purpose driven dog a sense of meaning, or an outlet for their energy and drive...

Oh wait, yeah there is. Bad dog owners are a problem for everyone; I can't let my kids play in the front yard because of the dog packs that roam around our street. I don't think there's a single person on the hippo list that will deny the danger a neglected or overly indulged pit bull presents.

I bought the nicest harness for Odhinn from these people:

He’s identical to the Dobe shown wearing it and we had a rip of a time finding a harness that fits his wide chest/girth *and* allowed for the typical Dobe “high/wide withers”.
[because of those withers, “normal” harnesses tend to ride forward and chafe their armpits...can’t have that!]

Not only does it have a grab handle on the top and safety-reflective piping, it’s got pulling rings on the side.

I added my own sheep fleece padding for the front strap and it really worked out great.

When he’s old enough, hubby is going to build him a cart.

[now all he needs is a bridle and we’re good to go]...LOL

I didn't realize that! So do I.

Smartest dog I have ever owned.
