A Puppy/Melody Shopping Trip: Second Edition!

With all the working that I've been doing lately at Sam's and my internship, I haven't had much time for retail therapy (insert sad face here). I mean, a girl's got needs! On Tuesday, I couldn't stand it any longer, so I grabbed my Mom and off we went!

First thing that morning, we hit Pet Supplies Plus! As you may know, this is my favorite pet store. The people are seriously so nice! I talked about my first shopping trip for Paisley in this post. Picking out things for Paisley is almost as much fun as buying clothes for myself, so we had a great time looking around! 

Paisley's new things:

1. Flower print collar by Pet Attire

Paisley had a collar that she was wearing when we got her from the breeder, but it was getting a little small, and had gotten dingy, so we picked her up a cute new one that's white with yellow and pink flowers.

2. Pink pet ID tag
For some reason, I hadn't got around to buying one of these yet. Since Paisley spends a lot of time running around our house outside, we thought it was best if she had one. My Mom was nice enough to buy this for Paisley. Oh the joys of having a grand-dog!

Here's Paisley modeling her new collar and ID tag this morning!

3. Small flower print harness
I had been thinking about buying Paisley a harness to wear when we're out in public with other dogs. She does well on her leash, but I thought this would give me some extra support if I need to hold her back for any reason. We actually tried it out around our house yesterday and it worked really well! It also matches her new collar!

4. Pink retractable leash
A retractable leash is something that I've heard both good and bad things about. I ended up buying a 16 foot Flexi leash for a medium to large dog (there's no use buying more than one). Around my house, we have a lot of trees, tall grass, and other things that I don't feel like exploring that Paisley goes crazy over. Hopefully this will give her a little more room to run, without me having to go with her! We'll see how it goes!

5. Smell good spray

This isn't the actual name of what we bought, but it's what I'm calling it! My Mom picked up a can of pet spray that's supposed to decrease her puppy smell. It seems to be working so far!

Then we were off to get the things that were on my list!

1. The new Emily Giffin book
I love Emily Giffin and own/have read all five of her books! They are some of my favorites! In May, I heard that she had a new book coming out this July, and I've had the release date on my calendar ever since. Luckily, I had a Barnes & Noble gift card and was able to get it pretty cheap!

2. Craft Supplies
I saw a cute craft on Pinterest the other day that I wanted to try, so I picked up the supplies for that! The best part, it only cost me one dollar! I'm making it to sit in Jake's apartment, so if you can guess what it is, sssshhh! It's a surprise! There will be more on this later!

3. Forever 21 Dress
For me, Forever 21 is always hit or miss. More often than not, if I'm on the lookout for something, it's a miss, but on Tuesday, I got lucky! I found the cutest navy and pink dress for just over $20. Had to have it! I'm thinking about pairing it with a gold necklace that belonged to my Grandma! Did I mention is has pockets! What do you think?

I'd say it was a pretty good shopping day!
