Doesn’t LISTEN!
I told Maggie to get off the chair today. She listens well. NOT! No wonder she is BAD! I take a picture instead of yelling at her :-). You Might Also Like What Do You Think? Let Us Know!

Doses of Cuteness…
This is a re-post from when I first started blogging back in 2017. I was closing my Jewelry business down where I had made custom jewelry for 8 years and really did not know what I wanted to do next. We brought Jake And Maggie home and it hit me! I was going to start a blog about them but literally had no clue how to blog or take good photos for that matter. I look at this old post and these pictures make me smile but are so dark and fuzzy and I didn't even say anything at all. I first...
Doses of cuteness (Part 2)…
This is a re-post from 2017 when I put out my "Doses of Cuteness" series sharing pictures of Jake And Maggie as puppies. As I go back through my old posts, I see the series is very much in need of an update. In Part 2, I'm keeping these adorable photos but document some of our accomplishments along the way plus some Happy Birthday posts :-). This is after a full morning of playtime running around the house. Their schedule was getting up at 6:00 am to go outside, eating breakfast, and then...
Doses of cuteness (Part 3)…
This is the last re-post in a series of 3 (Dose of Cuteness and Dose of Cuteness 2) that includes pictures of Jake And Maggie when they were puppies. In the last two posts, I've talked about our accomplishments, our on-line store, training, doggie birthday parties, our hobbies, and more. In this post, I want to highlight the side of the blog where I focus on treats for humans and our furry friends, as well as, tablescape ideas! I try to make recipes that are easy to make with limited...
Busy Chewnola Dog Treats By Purina
This is an update to a post from September 30, 2017... As I look back on the many post I've done and compared them to when I first started, I've come a long way. I'm learning every day and will keep going but I have to admit that this post was one of my worst. I typed 1 tiny paragraph, added a video, and 1 picture. I basically said nothing but I'm here to update it now! I love the video as it reminds me of the days when Jake And Maggie were so small. They loved these treats but I've...
Short Attention Span In Dogs
Updated post: I had just started blogging and did not know a thing of what I was doing. This post says it all with a short blurb about grass chewing, 1 picture, and a video. I'm going through all of my older posts and updating all of them going back to 2017! This one is in desperate need of updating. Let's talk about tips to build your dog's attention span! This is Jake chewing on his ball. Well, I call it his "chewy". Then he sees a bug in the grass and it seems that makes him...
Jake and Maggie’s First Trip To Pet Supplies Plus
Updated post: Jake And Maggie were 3 months old when I created this post. They are now 4 years old. Boy what I have learned along the way in raising to sibling puppies at the same time! Jake and Maggie are 3 months old now and I thought it would be fun to take them on their first trip to Pet Supplies Plus. I needed to get them new toys and treats and figured they would want to pick something out for themselves :-). Let's just say it was an eventful trip but short lived. I didn't...
How To Care For A Sick Puppy
This post has been update to reflect more information and pictures. Adoption Day: This was very exciting but I have to admit I was a tad bit nervous. As I counted the 17 years since I had had a puppy and I wanted to do everything right. I'm wondering now if the Purina Puppy Chow that I bought was good for their little bellies. Jake And Maggie are 4 years old now so I think we are ok in that department. After losing our three older shelter dogs at ages 13, 14, and 15 to cancer, stroke, and...
