For us, the winning combo was a flavored dog toothpaste that Bailey loves (don’t use human toothpaste, it’s not safe for pets!), and the finger toothbrush (see below).

This is our fav!

New Jersey is one of 11 states that have designated March 13 as K9 Veterans Day.

About 80 people and more than a dozen dogs attended Bergen County’s first-ever K9 Veterans Day to honor the dogs and their handlers. What a great idea!

15 Links for Halloween & Pets Fun!

OK, sure, it’s always sad to say good bye to Summer, but rather than dwell on that, let’s get ready for the next Big Fun Holiday: Halloween!

There are lots of ways to include your pet in your Halloween fun. But it’s important to keep safety in mind, and to consider your pet’s personality. If they prefer to sit this one out, give them someplace quiet to hang out until it’s all over.

Either way, here are some ideas and tips for a great Halloween:

Happy 9th Birthday, Bailey!

Pictures of Bailey Then and Now

Today is my furry roommate’s 9th birthday! While birthdays are always a good reason for a celebration, each of Bailey’s birthdays come with an extra level of happy because there was a time when I didn’t know if we’d get to enjoy this many happy days.

There have been health-related scary times, and new health problems have arisen, but for today at least we put those aside and did everything we could to make the day special. There were naps, special meals and treats, time spent doing her favorite things (at least the ones we could safely do in such heat!), and many presents to open (wrapped, of course, since tearing paper is one of the best parts for Bailey!).

Many, many thanks to MB VanWart for the awesome First Meeting and First Day Home photos. I’ve been flipping through them all with a big smile on my face. Such great memories!
