“In Case of Fire – Rescue My Pets!” Sticker

I have a “Warning. Guard Dog” sign hanging over my fence and several amusing dog-related signs hanging up around my house. However, I had never thought of having a sign for Fire Rescue groups telling them to rescue my dogs in case of an emergency / fire before I went into this one pet store. … Continue reading →

Chew & Tear Resistant Dog Bed

(Piccola is 55 lbs) Since I have had Piccola from the age of 2 months old, she has gone through numerous amounts of dog beds – all different types, sizes and fills. Like many dogs, she likes to bite and tear soft things. She also does that nesting-like behavior where she tries to fluff whatever … Continue reading →

Furminator or Comb?

When you have a dog that has not just one coat, but three coats of fur, grooming can often be a tedious task. Winter is especially fun for those of us who have huskies who give us the gift of annual blowouts (when they shed at least one layer of their fur). When I got … Continue reading →

Green Pet Feeder

Teaching your dog to eat their meals in more than one gigantic gulp can be a difficult task.    Piccola, my 3 yr old, has learned to eat with a toy in her bowl to slow down her eating, however, that didn’t work as well with my younger husky, Selene. She still managed to eat her … Continue reading →

Move over lint rollers and dust busters!

As a member of a two husky household, I have given in to the fact that I will never own anything that does not have fur attached to it somewhere – clothes, car interior, furniture.. For awhile I tried using the vacuum hose, my pet dust buster, lint rollers, duct tape, anything to get rid … Continue reading →

Keeping the car safe from puppy paws and claws

I recently adopted my second rescue pup, a younger husky named Selene. It turns out that Selene loves to paw people and things, especially my car doors. I noticed that she started leaving scratch marks and mud prints in the doors, so I knew I had to find some sort of barrier. I found out … Continue reading →

“Transformers, let’s go.. into the freezer?”

No-bake treats that keep your pups hydrated and entertained, um.. yes please! It’s been average 90 degrees over here this summer and for my husky/elkie, that means extra A/C and water. So I went to Michael’s Arts & Crafts and bought a cake pan (they were having a clearance sale and I managed to snag … Continue reading →

“Who lives in a pineapple under the sea?”

Spongebob the Sprinkler.  With the heat wave that seems to be making it’s way across the country this summer, I have been looking into multiple ways to keep Piccola cool and have some fun at the same time. She’s a water dog at heart who has been adventurous in licking the hose when I turn … Continue reading →

Hiss! Stop hissing in my ear!

I’ve been holding off on buying plush toys for Piccola for a little while now because usually I end up with a living room that looks like it was hit with a fluff tornado or she kills the squeakers pretty quickly. However, I found a toy that I decided to take a chance on – … Continue reading →

Picky Eaters?

Worse than a fussy two year old child, Piccola only eats what she wants to. Depending on who you speak to, people are supposed to mix up the types of food that they give to their dogs every 6mos – 1 year. I was not aware of this when she was a puppy and after … Continue reading →
