Feeling Down-Check out Ruff Ride

This life is a "Ruff Ride"

Today I am reviewing a book I got from Micah at RuffRide.com .  I wasn't sure what to expect when he asked if I would be interested in receiving a copy.  I was pleasantly surprised by this book. First, let me make the FTC happy by revealing that I am not being compensated for this review. I did receive a free book to review.

We all know that the economy has been quite rough on this country for the past few years. it can get down right depressing watching the nightly news. Which is why I no longer watch it.

This book is a picture book of animals (mostly dogs and a few kitties) with witty, comical, poignant quotes about the economy or other issues we deal with everyday.  Some of these really cracked me up. One or two, I didn't quite "get" (yes, I'm a blond), and most of them had me shaking my head in agreement.

This book would be great for anyone feeling down by their life circumstances or who just needs a little pick up. I suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder and get a little down during the winter months so this book came at just the right time. I have read something from it every day since I received it just to life my mood.

Check out their website at RuffRide.com to get the book, check out their freebies and their other products.

Guide to Naming Your Puppy

Naming Your Puppy

As pet parents, one of the first things we do is pick out puppy's name. There are several things to consider when doing this.

Dogs are a lot like people in the fact that they each have their own personality. Take that into consideration, a long with any special physical characteristics when choosing a name.

Of course, your dog does not really care what you name him or her. The main thing to consider for your dog is to make the name easy to pronounce with preferably one or two syllables, three at the most. Do not make the name too similar to a family member's name. For example, my name is Cathy. When I was a child, we had a dog named Candy. Way too similar. Candy came when called by her own name or mine. Come to think of it, so did I.

If you have children, get their input when naming your puppy. They may want to name the dog after a favorite cartoon character or story book character. Helping with the naming of your puppy will help family members bond with it.

Your puppy will not understand his name at first but it won't be long before he understands. You can help him do this by saying his name until you catch his attention. When he looks at you, immediately praise him. Sometimes include a little dog treat. This positive reinforcement will help your dog learn his name.

Once your puppy learns her name; you can train her in other areas. Try not to use her name when reprimending her. You want her to associate her name with good things so that she will come to you when called.

Winter Dog Collars from Dublin Dog

Winter Dog Collars from Dublin Dog

I wanted to share with you the gorgeous  new Snowflake dog collars from Dublin Dog. I still love the cool skull collar they sent me at Halloween (read about it here: Halloween Dog Collar) but now that the seasons have changed, I'm feeling the urge to change my collar too!  Of course, I have to convince Momma to buy it for me. I really like the collar pictured above. It's called  Frostbite but they also have 2 other colors too. Mistletoe comes in red and green and is more for the Christmas holiday season. Pink Ice comes is pink and black. Momma might go for that one since her favorite color is pink.

The sizes for these dog collars are Small, Medium and Large and they range in price from $22 to $26, depending on the size. The price is well worth it. My collar has held up very well and still looks like a brand new collar. Best of all, it stays clean and doesn't get that doggy smell some collars get after a while.

P.S. Momma wants me to tell you that we are NOT being compensated in anyway for this post. We just like the collars!

Buddys Joke- To God from the Dog

Here's a funny dog joke from Buddy to get your work week started with a smile

To God — From, The Dog

Dear God: Why do humans smell the flowers, but seldom, if ever, smell one another?

Dear God: When we get to heaven, can we sit on your couch? Or is it still the same old story?

Dear God: Why are there cars named after the jaguar, the cougar, the mustang, the colt, the stingray, and the rabbit, but not ONE named for a dog? How often do you see a cougar riding around? We do love a nice ride! Would it be so hard to rename the "Chrysler Eagle" the " Chrysler Beagle"?

Dear God: If a dog barks his head off in the forest and no human hears him, is he still a bad dog?

Dear God: We dogs can understand human verbal instructions, hand signals, whistles, horns, clickers, beepers, scent ID's, electromagnetic energy fields, and Frisbee flight paths. What do humans understand?

Dear God: More meatballs, less spaghetti, please.

Dear God: Are there mailmen in Heaven? If there are, will I have to apologize?

Dear God: Let me give you a list of just some of the things I must remember – to be a good dog.

1. I will not eat the cats' food before they eat it or after they throw it up.

2. I will not roll on dead seagulls, fish, crabs, etc., just because I like the way they smell.

3. The sofa is not a 'face towel'.. neither are laps.

4. The garbage collector is not stealing our stuff.

5. My head does not belong in the refrigerator.

6. I will not bite the officer's hand when he reaches in for Mom's driver's license and registration.

7. I will not play tug-of-war with Dad's underwear when he's on the toilet

8. I don't need to suddenly stand straight up when I'm under the coffee table.

9. I must shake the rainwater out of my fur before entering the house – not after.

10. I will not throw up in the car.

11. I will not come in from outside and immediately drag my butt.

12. The cat is not a 'squeaky toy' so when I play with him and he makes that noise, it's usually not a good thing. And, finally, My last question . .

Dear God: When I get to Heaven may I have my testicles back?
