Squeaky Clean Free and Gentle
I’m sending Happy Thanksgiving wishes to everyone and hope you all have a wonderful day. I know everyone is busy so I’m keeping this blog post short this week. There are three items that I continue to purchase because they are amazing and I want to share them with you. Yaktrax Boot TrayThe Yaktrax Boot Tray. This tray has really saved me over the years with my other dogs. Not only have I bought them to keep our shoes and boots for the garage but I also use these trays to keep Jake and...
Clavamox 250 mg for Maggie. What is Clavamox?
I watch Maggie and Jake like a hawk and would never have known that Maggie had adolescent UTI (Urinary Track Infection). She did not show any signs of being sick, urinating frequently, straining to urinate, having accidents in the house, blood in the urine (I used a white Scott towel to collect her urine and did not see blood), licking, or dribbling until I noticed her urine was cloudy and showed strings of mucus. I called our vet immediately and took her in along with her urine sample....
New Harnesses for Jake and Maggie from Amazon
Blueberry Pet Soft & Comfortable 3M Reflective Multi-colored Stripe Mesh Padded Dog Harness Vest, Matching Collar & Leash Available Separately.

Not only is this product made by Blueberry Pet and sold on Amazon.com all that is says it is, each section that covers the back, chest, and...

Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday to Jake and Maggiewho are FIVE months old today! They arrived in our life August 5th and have captured our hearts and allowed us to spoil them rotten. So far, Maggie has managed to chew every door stopper in both houses. But good news!…all of our furniture is in tack. Jake has learned that deer need to be barked at until they leave the yard and the chubby little ground hog isn’t allowed to hang out either! Their favorite meal is boiled chicken with rice; compliments of...

Purina Pro Plan “My Plan Dog and Cat Food Selector”
I found something interesting today and couldn't wait to share it with everyone. I'm that nervous Nelly who when picking out dog food for my fur babies, I wonder if I'm the 1 in a million who is getting a bag from a bad batch of food. When it's time to choose the next stage of food for their age group or whether I want chicken, beef, or lamb to be the first ingredient, I'm in the dog food isle forever. I normally run my errands when Thomas is working but on those rare occasions when I ask...
Keeping Your Pet’s Dishes Clean
This "Keeping Your Pet's Dishes Clean" post is one that I wrote when I first started blogging back in 2017. I decided to go back to it, make some edits, add new links, and combine new and old photos of Jake and Maggie. This is one that really pushed me to be diligent in cleaning the dogs water and food bowls every day. Studies have shown that pet bowls are the third most contaminated item in the household and are a breeding ground for bacteria and germs, such as Salmonella, E. coli, and...

New treats the healthy way!
