No, They're Not Norwegian Ridgebacks

Whenever we walk the dogs, people ask us, "What kind of dogs are those? What are their names? Are they both boys?" Well, hopefully now those questions will be answered even before they're asked. Tomkin just ordered new collars and leads for Scout and Chloe in stylish gender-stereotypical colors, complete with their names and breed. We tried them out by taking the dogs for a walk in the snow this afternoon. We did still get one question about their breed...but, hey, at least they look fabulous! (And, yes, someone recently asked if they were Norwegian Ridgebacks. Uff da!)

People don't read unless it's forced on them...maybe you'd consider a recording that answers the questions before they're asked...

My grand-puppies just look so stylish. How could someone mix up Rhodesian with Norwegian?

Love,

Those collars and leads look very nice! Your doggies will be walking in style! That Tomkin is a pretty good egg, don't you think?

Hey Jules- I actually have seen 2, yes, 2 ridgebacks up north here then at our dog park! Next time I just might ask if they are of the not so well known Norwegian variety! - Brenda
