Is the burning structure and bomb squad in Lucerne Valley related to the thwarted New Year's Eve bombers?

HIB, the harnesses with bulky plastic clips or metal buckles might get uncomfortable for Peaches to wear full time. Our small doggies have lightweight cotton fabric harnesses which look like fashionable vests and have Velcro closures. They have worn them for hours at a time.

Have a harness, not sure how shed react to wearing it full time, ill certainly give it a try...

HIB, perhaps a harness would be more secure than a collar. Chihuahuas have slender heads and can back out of most collars fairly easily. I'm sure glad that you found Peaches. Thank you to Kelly and Blake, and the FB page for helping you find her quickly.

In ten minutes peachy covered almost a half mile, quite a run for a dog that can't see a darn thing. Thanks to the Facebook critters page and Kelly and blake at frontier lodge for a quick and safe return. Gotta get a better collar...

Peachy has been found.
