  22. DachSand Bound! Where to Find Us and What I'm Looking Forward To

  Sep 9, 202623 min

  DachSand is the largest weekend beach festival for wiener dogs on the west coast. Last year, over 400 Dachshunds showed up! The event is put on by Doxies of PNW Club and it's their biggest annual fundraiser. Besides wiener madness, there are raffles, giveaways, a costume contest, doxie derby, longest weener contest, two beach bonfires, and more. We leave tomorrow, Thursday, but I started packing Monday because I was excited and I wanted to make sure everything I needed for 1 night of camping, staying in the hotel, my vendor booth at Ruby's Friday night plus camera equipment would fit in the car. If you're going, you can find me at Ruby's Friday night (look for the table with the orange skirt), on the beach Saturday by the contest and vending area, and Sunday morning at 9 am for the beach walk.

  21. Off-Leash Dogs: Advocating For Your Space

  Aug 29, 202633 min

  Last week, we encountered an off-leash dog that wouldn't leave us alone. My initial subtle "scram" signal didn't work, and the owners either didn't try to recall their dog or the dog wasn't listening, so I had to escalate my efforts. It worked. But then the dog owner came back to confront me. Now, I did swear at his dog and his little girl popped out of nowhere and saw that, so I apologized. We both kept our cool, but the conversation quickly devolved from what I thought was a request to not swear in case a kid hears it to him justifying his entitlement. There are two primary kinds of dog owners in this world - those that think it's ok for their dog to be off leash and go up to any dog or person because "he's friendly" and those that don't like off-leash dogs running up to them. We were clearly on opposite sides of the spectrum. In this episode, I talk about what to do if an off-leash dog approaches you and you don't want them to, how to advocate for your dog, and how to prepare for potential consequences of doing that.

  Feb 15, 202627 min

  While I've slowly been shedding my identify as a "pet blogger" over the last few years, a few big personal losses, and the realization that I've never held one "career" for 15 years, makes me feel like the time for true change is now.
