$65 for a One-Hour Beachside Horseback Ride for Two ($130 Value)

Before a leisurely one-hour trot alongside the ocean, savvy horse minders give a few simple riding tips for novices and pros alike. As the guided tour parades along the beach, riders are encouraged to lead their horses into the shallow water for a cool splash. The friendly guides of Virginia Beach Horseback lead tours from 11:30 a.m. until 6:30 p.m. Friday–Sunday.

Virginia Beach Horseback

With a retinue of eight horses, Virginia Beach Horseback sends riders on equine adventures amid the surf and on the trail. Trained staff members work with the steeds on a daily basis, giving them ample attention and working to desensitize them to spooks from dogs, loud noises, and Mr. Ed reruns playing nearby. This helps keep the rides safe and enjoyable. Shoreline tours run from September through June, during which an instructor guides horses through the sand at Virginia Beach. In the summer, horse and rider can roam the trails at Northwest River Park. Weaving through a four-mile nature path, patrons may run across local wildlife such as deer, fox, and bobcats in their natural habitats. The park also invites travelers to the shaded trails and woods at the edge of the intercoastal waterways, along with canoe and paddleboat rentals and mini golf.

The Groupon Guide to: Dog-Show Breed Standards

With billions of viewers and ad revenue through the roof, it’s no secret that everybody loves watching dog shows. But what do they judge these pedigreed pooches on? Hint: the things in this guide:

1. Is the Dog Crying? A sad dog is never a winning dog. An exemplar of the breed should be happy and boisterous, not a gross crying mess. Plus, the only dogs even capable of crying are genetic aberrations.

2. Has the Dog Eaten a Judge’s Finger During the Process? Only one dog (a mastiff named Grandmaster Waddlesplint) has ever won after consuming a judge’s finger. (It was only a pinky.)

3. General Dogliness: Is this really a dog? Not a pile of ants or a popular wooden toy? How much of a dog is the dog? Like, way dog or just some dog? This is generally the most important.

4. Telepathy Test: No dog has ever passed this test, but judges are holding out hope.

5. Pick Your Favorite: None of this matters. The judges just pick their favorite dog.

Is that dog really a dog?
