Friday Fetch: Good Clean Dog

After my recent run-in with my best friend Trooper (who decided my head looked like a fire hydrant), it got me thinking about bath time products. Good Clean Dog has a line of all natural cleaning products that are safe for dogs with sensitive skin. And while I don’t specifically have sensitive skin, it can’t hurt to make sure I have only the best natural products being put on my beautiful red hair!

You can fetch your own natural dog care products at Good Clean Dog.

Paint me a Picture

I’m having sort of a lazy day today. It’s raining outside and pretty much I don’t feel like doing anything. So in my rainy day boredom I decided to share some photos of my favorite pet artists – because whats better to get you motivated than an inspiring piece of art! And after all I am an art-loving pooch (I paint my own fantastic portraits, live with a bunch of painting ponies & work in a frame shop). So without further adieu, here’s some Thursday afternoon artistic inspiration for you….

So who are some of your favorite artists? Besides me of course! hehe.

6 things I can’t live without

I thought it would be fun to share 6 things that I currently can’t live without. Arguably there are a lot of things I wanted to add to this list – but I decided to narrow it down to the 6 items that I’m currently loving.

1. K9 Voyagers Winter Coat

2. Rope Leash

3. Green Orb Ball

4. Old Mother Hubbard Cookies

5. Super Hero Cape

6. Glowdoggie Led Collar

Admittedly the cookies are my #1 favorite! So what about you, what six things can you not live without?

*Disclosure – I was not paid or perked to write this post, these are simply some of the products I’m loving lately!

Not a Morning Dog

Anyone who knows me knows that I’m not a morning dog.

I don’t wake up at 5am and demand to be fed my breakfast….no, I sleep until someone tells me it’s time to get up.

Usually I’m awakened by the sound of kibble being poured into my bowl in the kitchen, because really, who can resist that sound?

Eventually I mosey into the kitchen and eat – but unlike you might think, I don’t go outside for a morning romp – instead I find a new comfy spot to sleep.

Despite the fact that mom says we have to be at work in an hour, I just can’t muster the energy to get my day started.

So instead I happily snooze my morning away until I’m forced to go outside for a potty break or mom carries me to the car for our ride to the shop or the farm.

I may not be a morning dog, but if you had as many adventures as I do you might be a little less willing to get out of bed in the morning too.

Weekend Snow

On Saturday we got our first snowfall of 2012 in Pennsylvania.

I love the snow, but sometimes I’d just much rather stay in bed.

The wind can sting your eyes, and….

…when the snow freezes it can be quite difficult for little paws to trek around in.

But, duty calls and I gotta dig deep and just keep going…..

…because there are certain ponies that don’t take “snow days”…..

….and become quite angry when they don’t get their morning hay.

I don’t complain much about leaving my warm bed on snow days though….

….because after all, someone has to make sure all the necessary “scents” are still in their designated place after a blanketing of new fallen snow.
