There are lots of clever products designed specifically to make running with dogs a little easier, from accessory bags and digital pedometers to portable water bowls. Now there is a new item joining the jogging pack. It is called the Stunt Runner, a hands-free, soft, stretchy leash designed to keep your canine running partner in proper place without creating tension. The connector attaches to the human’s waist while the d-ring slides conveniently to help pup keep pace, stay on track and stay safe. Do you run with your dog? Here are a few important safety tips to keep in mind if you’re just getting started.

CHICKS IN HATS
I have always personally been a fan of hats, but the site of dainty chapeaux atop the feathered head of a chick is enough to make me giddy with delight! These beautiful and unexpected portraits are the brilliant work of Julie Persons who started the project Chicks in Hats with her eight-year-old daughter in 2011. Now the images can be purchased as calendars, magnets and other fun items! How darling! I don’t know about you but the mere site of these portraits makes my voice get all high-pitched from overwhelming cuteness! Keep reading for even more adorable photos (trust me, you won’t want to miss them!)
How’s your voice now? I can’t get enough of the miniature top hat personally! So sweet! How lucky these chicks are to have little hats for fall. Here are some lovely knitted scarves for dogs too in case you haven’t had enough cuteness for one morning.
ENGRAVED BUCKLE COLLARS
Every pet parent has had that moment when they realize that their precious little fluffball has somehow lost an ID tag amidst various fun and games. So a clever alternative to help keep your pet extra safe (in addition to their tags) is a personalized laser engraved buckle collar from Mimi Green! Offering a variety of lush fabrics and a strong metallic buckle, these collars are an ingenious and oh-so ‘pawsh’ product! Plus they help cut down your pet’s ‘jingling’ as they frolic around the house.
PET FASHION: HOUNDSTOOTH SWEATERS
Houndstooth is one of those timelessly elegant patterns that never fails to make a ‘pawsh’ impact. Traditionally worn in the classic black-and-white colour scheme, this pattern also makes a profound statement in a cool cucumber green. Snuggle up this fall with either of these beautiful sweaters; a RuffKnits sweater for pup or a cosy cardigan for you!
