Greatest Pet Grooming Show Ever

Here at CSX we're having our Mutt Madness competition for the best looking dog in Detroit. Now while we consider them all beautiful - this is next level stuff...may I present the greatest pet grooming show ever!

Take your time and just watch as they movie inspired mutts show off (this is worthy of a couple of looks...trust me)

"The Washington Post" just did a big story about how skipping walks can "significantly affect your dog's emotional and physical well-being."

The writer's landlord just added a fence to the yard, so she can let her dog outside now.  But she found out that's not enough.  Those walks are still really important.

Most yards don't offer enough stimulation.  They're too small, and everything's too familiar.  One expert compared it to reading the same book over and over again, or expecting to have fun while hanging out in your bathroom.

Walks are good for three key reasons:  They get some exercise . . . a sense of companionship from you . . . and it gives them the MENTAL stimulation they need.

The backyard isn't as good, because they don't get to see new things.  Or more importantly, SNIFF new things.  Dogs have 50 times more "olfactory receptors" in their nose than we do.  So smelling is really how they "see" the world.

Ideally, you should never rush your dog through a walk, or force them to stop sniffing that fire hydrant.  It's like going to an art museum you're really into, and having someone hurry you along saying, "Let's go!  We're just doing this for exercise . . . and why haven't you used the bathroom yet?"

So here's the plan Detroit - lets find a dog groomer that make our dogs look like Robocop - then we take them for a long walk and freak out every cat in the neighborhood. Sound good?
