Being a dog owner is most certainly not an easy job In many regards its like having a toddler but for 10 to 15 years
There are many things you need to know and think about constantly because they can not do it themselves This can get absolutely exhausting sometimes
So mistakes happen You forgot to clean the dogs bed or you misplaced his favorite toy and cant find it
Unfortunate incidents like this happen and there is nothing wrong with it On top of having many different obligations in our everyday lives no one should feel bad if they forget something
However for this woman the problem was that she went for a hike with her dogs and only then realized that she had forgotten their leads
Adapting To The Situation

After Paulina realized this unfortunate fact it was already too late to turn back and go home as she drove for two hours straight to get there
So in order for this not to ruin their trip she went into her car to check if there was some stuff she could use as leads
Paulina found USB cables and headphones that were meant for a charity store so she had a brilliant idea
She would use them as leads While its not the most practical solution it was the best one she had and there was no way they could go back
So she tied the USB cables around one dog and the headphones on the other While it was a phantom lead for the other dog it did the trick

They didnt figure out that those werent their leads which was amazing for Paulina It meant that this trip was saved
During their hike they got a lot of strange looks but Paulina didnt care The only thing that mattered was that her pups stayed safe
She told Newsweek Walking them off the lead was not an option They dont have a good recall typical small dogs they do what they want

She later posted this video on her TikTok account where it received quite a bit of attention and funny reactions
One commenter said With my military background I would have done the same thing Sometimes you have to use what you have on hand Kudos for thinking outside the box
This comment just illustrates how important it is to be able to improvise a solution to a problem in some situations For Paulina it worked pretty well
Another person commented Resourceful It was either the headphones or my jumper

While its a hilarious compliment on Paulinas solution it can also show us how sometimes coming too prepared can be a good thing
Lastly someone said I forgot my pups dog leash so I had to attached him to my other dogs lead and they shared the hardness Luckily it was just a quick night walk and I could let them off when no one was around
Its interesting to see that this is not an isolated event and that it happens to other people as well
In the end Paulinas ability to overcome and adapt to the problem at hand allowed her and the pups to go on an amazing hiking adventure and everyone enjoyed themselves It was a very positive experience
