Working Smarter

As you may know, I’ve got a 9-5 job working at my mom’s custom frame shop. While I’d totally love to not have to work at all….we all know the business would totally fall apart without me.

My mom always says we need to work smarter not harder, so that we have more time for the adventures that we love. (and well, so I have more time to play fetch and practice my dog agility at work).

So I picked up a little trick on my own to help us get done our work faster…

I’ve started grabbing the printouts when they come out of the printer and bringing them to mom. And if you visit my shop and you’re lucky, maybe I’ll even bring you your receipt (mom says I still need to practice not drooling on the paper first before I master that one).

Yea, it’s nice to know my hardworking efforts are finally being appreciated around here! Now can we quit working and have a little fun?

Friday Fetch: All-In-One Smart Dog Collar

I’m already a “GPS Dog”, with my trusty Trax collar that I love, but I couldn’t help but take notice of the new indiegogo campaign to fund Dogtelligent’s Connected Collar. The Connected Collar is a a proposed GPS Tracker, Activity Monitor, Safety Collar and Training Device all in one. Just check out the video below to see what it’s all about!

The most interesting thing to me was the ability for the Connected Collar to simulate a leash tug through vibrations – to perhaps keep your dog from running into traffic, or going too far from home. I can’t wait to see how these collars perform once they make it into production. There’s still 25 days to get involved with funding the Connected Collar into production, and eventually you’ll be able to fetch them from DogTelligent.

Mastering the Kicker Box

You might remember that for my Birthday back in the beginning of October I received a gift from my parents called the Kicker Box. This box with it’s confusing levers that held my treats captive was a source of frustration for me for the first week or so. But, truth be told, it’s no secret as to how stubborn us Dachshunds are – and I couldn’t give up on the Kicker Box without a fight.

I’m now a master at dispensing my treats from the box, and to prove it to you my mom shot this video of me working for my breakfast this morning:
