Goodbye to Jacque

It's been a long time since I blogged here!

I bring sad news. Almost a month ago we said Good Bye to our sweet Jacque. He was 13.5 years old and we had 8 amazing years with him. He was the most loving little dog ever. We miss him every day.

Jacque and Pippen LOVE these treats! They eat Wellness food too! I am happy that I can feel good about what I am feeding them. Chewy.com provided these treats for my sweet doggies! 

Puppy Treads!

I was (not so) recently contacted about trying a product called Puppy Treads, which are meant to help with slipping on smooth surfaces. I don't have a puppy, but this sounded great because I had been concerned lately about how much Jacque seems to slip on the vinyl flooring in our house. For some reason it's just him and not Pippen! So I jumped at the chance to test them out (I was given these for free, but these are my own opinions).

They sent a bunch! I really started thinking about where I was going to put them. What would be the most helpful areas. I decided that it would be good to start with transition from carpet to vinyl. I put one of the puppy treads on the vinyl right after the carpet ends like in the picture below.

I think they've been really helpful so far! I have a bunch more to use and think I will add one more right behind these ones to help a little more. They're really easy to use. Just peel the backing off and smooth onto a clean surface. The instructions that came with them were short and sweet! These would be really great for stairs.

Chewy.com Treats!!!

Mmmm! Jacque and Pippen LOVED these Natural Balance Belly Bites! I thought they were going to maul me to get to them! Another big hit!

Walkies with Jacque

Chewy.com!! Dino Toy!

Chewy.com comes through again! Jacque LOVES this toy! I don't know if I'm mentioned this before, but he pretty much thinks every piece of mail is for him. Could be because of a particularly good Christmas a few years back, but who knows! He's like his mama and he loves himself some online ordering and getting mail! 

This Nylabone DuraChew dinosaur is awesome! It's super cute and also has some great dental benefits. Poor Pippen didn't even get a chance to pretend like she might get to play with it! 

just look at that happy doggie!!

It's a Beautiful Day!

                 Let's go for a walk!!

TREATS!! Chewy.com!

Man, I have been slacking on sharing our treats from Chewy.com!! We've had some yummy ones lately too!

The Cinna-Bone treats from Solid Gold were really yummy! They smell so good and, I don't think you can see, but there are actual bay leaves left in the bag! Jacque and Pippen really loved these. They were a nice size to break in half and share.

Those Nutro Crunchy treats are banana flavored!! Jacque LOVES bananas! Pretty funny. I discovered it about a year or so after we adopted him when I was reading through his papers again. I immediately thought...really? That seems weird! So I went to the kitchen, got a banana and sure enough he freaked out! Loves them! Pippen eats a little bit, but I think just because she doesn't want to let Jacque get something she doesn't! Anyway, back to the treats! They are really yummy and shaped like little hearts. Too small for a bedtime biscuit, but perfect as a little reward for being cute and adorable! These smell delicious too! Seriously. Sometimes I'm tempted to take a little nibble just to see.....

Happy New Year!

Think I'll have a nap......

Christmas Presents!!!! Angel Jazzi's and Oreo's Gift Exchange

Jacque and Pippen got presents!!! I made them wait until Christmas to open them...can you believe that??!! They both loved everything! We love participating in Angel Jazzi's Christmas gift exchange. We're excited that Oreo will help his human carry on the tradition.  Thank you Oreo and Diana! 

Jacque LOVES all his presents, especially that rope toy with the two balls! He was nice enough to share his
treats with his sister Pippen too. He wore his handsome collar bandana too! Thank you Winston!!!!

Pippen was super happy with all her gifts too! She liked to sniff everything and she especially loved the
wrapping! I have the same wrapping paper! Thank you for the gift tags too! Pippen says I can use them
to tag all her gifts next year! Thank you Daisy!!! 

Christmas Card Count.......

 

Well, we don't have an EXACT count but I'm sure you can see that the doggies are winning! They have 3 of the 4 pantry doors and we (the humans) have the upper right hand door. We must also confess that two of those are from one lovely friend. 

Pippen with one leg.....

Where'd your other leg go Pippen??!! 

Spoiled?

Nope. Not even a little. 

Aaaarrrrr!!! Wordless Wednesday
