What Is Black Dog Syndrome?

Easter Basket Goodies
For the last couple of years, we have done an Easter Egg Hunt with Jake and Maggie. This year I decided to make them each an Easter basket. I bought these small pink and blue wicker baskets at Walmart for $1.47 a piece. I filled each basket with two of each:
Chew’n Clean Dental Duo Bone Bacon Flavor
Chomp and Tug Buddy Dog Toy
BARK Puppy Side Up Egg
They spent a good part of the morning tearing up their toys. I don’t buy anything expensive anymore because they can tear up a toy in seconds. The Dental Bone lasted the longest!






I’m Bobbi Jo, a lab-lover who took my passion for animals and dogs and turned it into something bigger. When I adopted Jake and Maggie, my love for them became the driving force behind Two Adorable Labs, and my blog was born. My hope is to not only share them with the world, but to help educate others on the importance of animal health and well-being.
I love hearing from all of you and do my best to respond to each and every one of you. I always enjoy your comments, feedback, and suggestions so keep them coming! If I’ve posted a recipe (for our human and our furry friends) and you try it, don’t forget to tag me on Instagram @twoadorablelabs and use #twoadorablelabs.
If you do try and love my recipes, I would greatly appreciate a comment and rating. I read every single one and respond to them. It also lets Google know that the website contains quality content. The more comments and 5-star ratings, the more Google will show my blog in search results! Thank you so much!

Looks like Jake and Maggie had a happy Easter. Innsbrook had their first doggie Easter egg hunt. I would say at least 50 gigs showed up. The huge field was devided into small dogs/large dogs. Dogs and their people were on leashes at all times. It was fun! Hundreds of eggs with one small milk bone hidden in each egg. Emily’s George sniffed and carefully opened each egg without breaking it and them gobbled up each surprise. We stopped after awhile because we were afraid he’d get a tummy ache. Gus stayed back at our house with Tim. He was happy with the eggs George brought back with him!
I always try to make the holidays fun for Jake and Maggie. I was mad I forgot to put their Easter bows on them. Your Doggie Easter Egg Hunt sound soooo fun and adorable. I’m sure it was a delight watching the dogs find the eggs.
I’ve always had black dogs or black and white. I had 3 that were solid black which were the greatest fur babies..I just love Jake and Maggie’s Easter basket. I didn’t think about doing that for Milo but thanks to you Bobbi Jo it’ll definitely get done next year. You always have such good and unique ideas that you share with all of us. It is sad that people shy away from black dogs or cats. They may be missing out on the best forever friend…
Thank you! Jake and Maggie were a bit unsure at first as to what those baskets were. Once they figured it out, their tails were wagging a mile a minute. Honestly, BDS is just crazy to me too but it is real. If I had judged all of our dogs, we would have never experienced such joy in having them.
