When most people think of a rescued dog they think of a dog that has b
een abused or has special physical and/or emotional needs. I am here to tell you that yes, there are plenty of dogs that meet this criteria and those very special dogs need to be carefully matched with equally special parents. They need a family that can devote the necessary time, patience, and resources to rehabilitating the pooch.
However, not all rescue dogs come with additional baggage.
Meet Belle…A glorious 75 pound – two year old Chocolate Lab beaming with love and personality!! She was adopted from a rescue by my in-laws after her loving owners could no longer keep her due to their own medical issues. Belle was loved immensely and was wonderfully trained by her previous parents. In fact, Belle has so much love to share she is now enrolled in training to become a therapy dog.
If you’ve rescued a dog, I would love to hear about your experience…

I just love
Valentine’s Day!! It’s the perfect occasion regardless of what else is going on in your life to stop and remember the little four-paw heartbeat at your feet!! I love gifts that allow for sharing a moment together and help to make a memory
(to me that’s what the holidays are all about). Of course I’m all for the adorable clothing but what I really love are the toys – treats – and even the bowls!! Our lives are so busy that rarely do we find time to stop – laugh and play…So go ahead and do that this year. We think the
Casanova Toy Set is perfect for the occasion and will keep you and your pooch busy for hours!! After a busy day of play everyone loves a snack so why not indulge in the
Puppy Love Liver & Bacon heart shaped treats. They are made with organic ingredients in small batches right in New York City…Trust us your pooch will find these treats absolutly irresistable!! Lastly, a romantic dinner for two is in order…Why not cook your pooch a wonderful dog-friendly dinner recipe and serve it in the adorable
XOXO Dish!! We wish you and your pooch a very Happy Valentine’s Day this year!!

Alright, so we all have a favorite sleeping position. Some of us are back sleepers while other favor a particular side and of course we all know a tummy sleeper. Well, pets also have sleeping preferences and wouldn’t it be great if one bed could meet all of your pet’s sleeping needs. Good news, there is…The
Buggle Beds available in
camel and
pink faux fur – perfect for keeping warm in the winter and cool in the summer!! These beds are fantastic and really we can’t get enough of them. The
Buggle Bed is a sleeping bag of sorts for your pet and offers many sleeping options – burrow inside for a cave like and ultra snuggly sleep – Pups that run warm like to lay on top of the Buggle using it as a fluffy blanket – The
Buggle Beds can also be placed on end to create a nesting bed as well which offers pups loads of warmth and comfort. We also love that the
Buggle Bed folds flat making it a great option to take in the car and use on the go.

Pucker up because Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and we just received a shipment of Kiss Kiss Lips which is a plush – squeakable toy in the shape of none other than a set of lips!! We can’t get enough of them. They are especially fun for small dogs because if they grab the toy just right all you can see is a giant set of lips quickly approaching. We haven’t laughed this hard in a long time and just couldn’t wait to share them with you!! They also have the initials S.W.A.K which stands for sealed with a kiss of course!!

Picking up after your pup is the neighborly thing to do not to mention it’s also the law in many areas. With the right tools this unfavorable task can become quick – easy – and convenient. Opposed to using traditional plastic grocery store bags specially designed pick up bags are brightly colored to appear more fashionable and to make it clear to nosy bystanders that you are in fact picking up. The pickup bags are always freshly scented almost immediately eliminating any foul odors. The selection of bags seems endless…
Designer Bags on a Roll are fantastic for people that like to attach the bags right on the leash or belt loop. For those who prefer to take them as needed perhaps a
Box of Bags would be best where the user simply removes the bags as needed and leaves the box behind. Then for the on-the-go hound we love the
Doggie Walk Capsules as each plastic capsule holds one bag and you can store them in all of your favorite places so one is always at arms reach. All the bags are earth-friendly and are biodegrade so you can feel great about using them as well. We promise once you get using them…You’ll wonder how you ever got along without them!!
