Carabiner Clips to the "Rescue"

I figured out a way to get Marki in on our walks and have simplified the process of moving about with four dogs. Opal helps because she is completely leash free...such a good girl. Marki, Gizzy and Bubba are not quite as predictable, so they need leashes.

Clip attached to long leash and another clip attached to long rope.

I found that Carabiner clips work wonders to attach any number of leashes or ropes. Marki is also wearing her small harness again. I can tuck in the short leash she wears while in the house into the pocket on top. When she's outside, I can quickly hook her up to the long rope. Gotta watch her though as she can get tangled up and stuck.

Marki can get out into the yard using this system.
Here she is with Opal and Bubba enjoying a sunny afternoon.

She was refusing to come inside, even at night, and this just was not working out. This works much better for all of us.  I've also included a few cute photos I got while out at the dog park today.

Marki on ramp platfom with Opal's coat. It got pretty warm today!

Gizzy, Opal and an unknow small dog hanging out.

Bubba likes to pretend he's a show dog on the ramp.

I told Marki to "smile for the camera".

A berner, bulldog, spaniel and Opal...talk about diversity.

Marki thinking this dog park thing is pretty awesome.
