Disclaimer: This review and giveaway is brought to you by Sleepypod.

I’m always on the lookout for sturdy and good looking Pet Id Tags, so when Sleepypod offered me the chance to test out their Pendants I jumped at the chance!

Sleepypod Pendants are made of jewelry-grade, 100% stainless steel or 18k gold-plated metal. They chose to use stainless steel and gold as the base metals because they are hypoallergenic and do not harbor germs. The pendants are available in small and medium sizes in six shapes: Sheep, Chick, Lion, Whale, Elephant, and Stegosaur.

These ID tags aren’t your average tag, these things are built to last – boasting a 2mm thickness. I should know after I tested their durability down a couple of groundhog holes already!

I chose the small whale in stainless steel and the medium stegosaur in stainless steel.

The larger tags would be great for bigger breed dogs, or they can also be attached to a harness, leash, or even a pet carrier. You can even choose to hang them around your neck as a charm or even use them on your keyring.

The Hunt for My Missing Collar

Posted on by

It’s true, on Monday night I lost my collar somewhere on the farm. My pretty one from the Polka Dog Line at Target, complete with my new Blanket ID tag, and my new Cropscotch tag, and even my two new Rubit Clips. Sigh, I was sort of in the dog house when I told mom I had lost all of those things at once. And the worst part was, I couldn’t even remember where I lost it.

So the next day mom and I set out to search the farm for my collar. WE LOOKED EVERYWHERE! Needless to say with 20 acres to search it didn’t turn up.

Then, in a sudden turn of events that day, I accidentally lost my back-up collar! I must have been so engrossed in digging out some local groundhogs that it slipped off my neck. This time we were able to find my collar nearby one of the holes, which made us come to the conclusion that my other collar must be down one of the holes too!

So the very next day we set out on a digging mission (oh happy day) to find my collar.

Armed with shovels and the super strength of my digging paws the mission was simple – dig up groundhog holes!

The whole time I just kept thinking those pesky groundhogs were parading around down there with my prized collar (I am sort of a fashion icon).

I worked myself up into a frenzy over them wearing my collar and ended up doing most of the digging, surprise surprise.

But despite my best digging efforts I was unable to locate my lost collar. Tear. I can’t bear the thought of those groundhogs with something of mine!

But the very worst part was, when we were all done, mom filled in all of my holes!!!! This is just horrible, I’m going to have to pull double digging duty tomorrow to un-dig them all. Sigh. Ammo the Dachshund

Friday Fetch: DIY Collar Bling

Posted on by

diy dog charmsI’m an individual, which means I like stuff that sets me apart from the crowd (How many super hero dachshunds do you know?). So when I came across this DIY tutorial to make your own bling for your collar, I knew at some point I’d be begging someone with hands to make me something cool to wear around my neck!

This tutorial from Jenny Ryan in the Good Dog Magazine gives you details on how to use Sculpey clay to sculpt, then bake, some bling for your own furry friend. Seriously, this is so simple I’m wondering why I didn’t think of it!? You can check out the full tutorial.

So, now the question is, who’s going to make me some super hero bling?
