Can your dog's acting skills rival Leo's? š¤£
Today's Pawsome Human shares his brand new product DogFenderĀ®
Leo was an actor
The vet took care of Leoās wound after he got bitten. Then she looks up and says,
āThis oneās ready for Hollywood!ā
Apparently, the wound was rather insignificant (although the shock certainly wasnāt, for both of us).
But it is a fact that Leo knew how to put on a show when he didn't want to do something ..
Like going for a walk when he knew dinner time was approaching (click the image to see him in action for 30 seconds):
Or that other time when he started limping just to get me to turn around and go home .. (I was too dumbstruck to record š¤Ŗ)
How are your dogās acting skills? If you have a funny story to tell, hit reply, Iād love to hear.

Pawsome Humans Interview: Peter Antonio - Inventor of DogFenderĀ®
![](https://media.beehiiv.com/cdn-cgi/image/fit=scale-down,format=auto,onerror=redirect,quality=80/uploads/asset/file/82ce5b1f-08ae-4fca-9510-30db2b8337f6/DogFender.png?t=1700858081)
In this episode, Peter Antonio, the inventor and CEO of DogFenderĀ®, and I talk about his innovative product.
DogFenderĀ® is a collar that defends dogs from attacks by creating a static barrier and releasing a stimulant into the aggressor's mouth if there is any contact.
Peter shared how his own dog's traumatic experience led to the creation of the collar and how it has brought peace of mind to many dog owners.
We have a look at how DogFenderĀ® works, the importance of responsible dog ownership, and how it doesn't just protect a dog from getting attacked, it also protects the other dog from causing harm and getting wrongfully euthanized.

If youāre in the UK .. Easy Fundraising - You Shop, Brands Donate
One of the amazing things that happens as a result of starting Soul Touched by Dogs is that so many people make introductions or tag me in posts related to dogs.
This is one of those recommendations.
The idea is simple:
You find a cause (there are 630 causes that support dogs)
You create an account
Every time you buy something from one of the over 7,000 brands, they make a donation
Find out more at https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/
I have no idea if something like this exists in other countries (if you do, please let me know) but I really like the concept .. weāre buying stuff anyway, might as well help dogs in the process :-)
