Gingerbread Treats, A Bag of Chews, and a Dog TREAT giveaway!
I ended up with so many different great dog treats to review, I decided to put them together in one super post so that you can check them all out at once. You might even want to pick up some of these for gift giving this year. I must say Kelly and Ike have had fun...
Our Vacation without Dogs
I rarely go on vacation. We tend, instead, to take short weekend trips or visit friends and family, where we can bring along the dogs. But that isn't always possible. A few weeks ago we took a long-anticipated vacation to Walt Disney World. What? A vacation...
FitDog Friday- Dismembered Toys
Play is an important part of keeping fit. Kelly and Ike like their toys as much as any dog. But Kelly, especially has a serious problem--she dismembers her toys. Just look at this collection of hands, ears and tails. A stuffie doesn't last 2 minutes in the house...

Elevated Feeders-good or bad?
My dogs always ate from bowls on the ground. I never gave a second thought to elevated feeders. Then we got Brooks and then Ike, golden retrievers. It seemed like such a long way down. Would they feel more comfortable with their bowls raised? Would it be better for...
Bowls to go Bow Wow For!
What is the best material for your dog's dinner bowl? Plastic? Ceramic? Stainless Steel? Plastic: Advantage: Inexpensive, many designs and colors Disadvantage: Material may become scratched and harbor bacteria, some dogs are allergic to plastic, may leach chemicals...
