My dad noticed the other day that my mum and dads next wedding anniversary is on the 8-8-08 all the ’8s’ and it is their 16th so another multiple of 8 which must be unusual.
After great discussion we noticed that the number eight is special for many many people around the world.
For the Chineese and other Asian countries because it sounds like the word prosper or wealth. It is considered lucky in Japan because the numeral character represents a mountain specifically, Fujisan.Looking around the web the number 8 also is the used in the name for the magic 8 ball as a fortune telling device or all the elements of an LED screen lit and many more.
Eight would also be the total number of paws we both have.
The web search also pointed out that the 8 August is the start of the next of Olympics in China. Good luck to all those taking part.
Gadgets
It was only a matter of time before we managed to get our paws on our own flash memory stick. I have seen my dad use one of these to transfer files between computers but now we have our own paw friendly version.
The Top Tag Pet ID protects us more than any other pet tag by providing complete care information to friends, vets, kennels, pet sitters and rescuers who may be responsible for our welfare and special needs.
With the tag, your mum or dad can easily write, organize, store and retrieve ALL of your pet’s important care information easily.
As far as we are aware they are only available in the USA -unless you know otherwise.
Our second gadget just made us want one to try.
The one downside about wooden fences is that you can only see straight through the gaps in the fence. Buster and I love to watch things going on and this invention would make our lives a lot more interesting.
The PetPeek is the ideal solution
The website says that it is a durable, clear, hard acrylic dome 9.5 inches in diameter, with a black trim-ring and all necessary hardware for easy do-it-yourself installation into your wooden fence.
If you have a doggy gadget or great gizmo then just drop us an email with the details to admin at ablogfrommydog.com
Thats all for now
