Apple Pumpkin Dog Treats
If you are new to the blog, this is a recipe that I posted a while back. I wanted to post it again for my new followers as it was lost in the transition from the old site to the new one. All wording is exactly as before. I was in the kitchen baking yesterday and thought why not keep going and make another dog treat recipe...and so I did :-). I had gone to Kroger that morning and bought...
Blueberry Banana Almond Flour Biscuits
Does a treat full of blueberries and bananas sound delicious??? Jake and Maggie think so! I created this recipe a while ago and posted it via my old website format. It got lost in the transition so just incase you didn't see it the first time, here it is again. I bought this pumpkin faced mold at Walmart for $5.33. Aren't these the cutest molds!!! There are 24 little pumpkin faces and...

Games You Can Play With Your Dog
With the winter here and cold weather keeping us all bundled up inside, I have not been diligent in taking Jake and Maggie for their walk. We haven’t played frisbee much outside lately either and there are days where the dogs get bored. We play our tricks in the house and we take rides in the car but I think they need more mental stimulation as well. Here is a list of activities and games you...
What Is “Irresponsible” vs. “Responsible” Dog Breeding?
Responsible dog breeders use simple genetic cheek swabs to look for hidden conditions that may have found their way into a breed. If the dog is a carrier, then they will be bred with a clear dog. This preserves the breed while ensuring that puppies are free of known genetic problems. Irresponsible breeders want to make a buck, breed the females over and over and skip the genetic screenings...
Help Australia
The Australian bushfires, which have been burning since September; in mere months, an estimated one billion animals and 25 humans have been killed, and 12.35 million acres of land containing approximately 2,000 homes have been incinerated. Experts are saying that climate change is playing a big part in what has ignited these devastating fires but the more I researched, this is what I found:...
Why You Should Never Buy From A Puppy Mill
My neighbor in Missouri had the most adorable little Shih Tzu I had ever seen. He had this quirky look with a droopy left eye and the sweetest personality. I never asked what was wrong with his face but when she proceeded to tell me where she adopted him and what the “farm” looked like, I realized she had adopted from a puppy mill. As I stood talking to her, I knew what I was meant to do. I...
What Does Tethering Of Dogs Mean?
What does “Chaining” or “Tethering” of dogs mean? The term refers to the practice of fastening a dog to a stationary object or stake, usually in the owners backyard, as a means of keeping the animal under control. These terms do not refer to the periods when an animal is walked on a leash. When you google “tethering a dog” the definition is a nice one…Tethering is where an animal is fastened...
Frankie Available For Adoption
I've partnered with the Beaver County Humane Society again and I'm making it my mission to be at their facility at least once a month to take pictures of the sweet animals up for adoption. I had the pleasure of meeting Frankie last Friday and she won my heart. It didn't take me long to bond with her as she was very curious, friendly and energetic around me. I could tell she loves to snuggle...
How The Pet Industry Has Grown
With the pet industry exploding in growth opportunities, I thought I would put together some statistics on pet ownership, cost per month, and how advanced we have come in our thinking about the quality of food, treats, care, services, and technology. We are now looking for high quality food, organic food, quality medications, quality vet care, and loving the convenience of being able to order...
