Christmas Miracles!

Wonders never cease!!  After 2 years and 9 months Bella, for the last 2 nights, has decided that she can use a dog bed! Normally no matter what I have tried she just acted like having anything squishy under her feet was horrible. I have no idea what has changed her mind! The picture isn’t great cause it was dark and I only had my phone. I am happy for her though! I hope she continues to enjoy the wonders of an orthopedic mattress.

Waiting for Santa

We are all eagerly awaiting Santa’s arrival! What did your pups ask for from the guy in the red suit?

Rizzie asked for a forever home of her own where she can snuggle up with her people on the couch every night. Daisy wants treats and a pet squirrel (not sure I believe she wants a ‘pet’- LOL), and Bella wants the UPS truck to stop making deliveries so often at our house!

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

It is that time of year! Time for all the kids dogs to tell Santa what they want for Christmas.  My girls are no different!

Daisy and Rizzie went to Bass Pro Shop to let Santa know what they wanted this year for Christmas. They were perfect angels. They stood and waited in line quiet and calm. They both let the little kids come up and pet them and say hello. I will say I wish the pictures were taken a bit closer in. I know they were trying to get a whole scene but isn’t the point to get a picture of your kid dog with Santa?

Rizzie went first.  Once she realized I was leaving her with this strange man she turned and was trying to get him to pet and love on her. This is why he is looking and laughing at her. We made lots of funny noises to get her to turn her head. If you click on the pictures you can zoom in to see the girls better.

 

Daisy was her typical show-pony self. She knew just what to do and how to pose. The girl can really turn on the charm when she wants to.

My First Product Review!! Chewy.com

So earlier this year I watched as blogs all over reviewed MrChewy.com. I had received an email but was on a blogging break due to my nerve injury. I felt left out and was disappointed to have to tell them I couldn’t do it.

 

Well, left out no more! So, who is Chewy.com? What do they offer, and most important, how was my experience using them?

 

 

So Chewy.com is not a new website. Many of you will know them as MrChewy.com but they have had a name change this year. I like that they’ve been around a while. I am sure many of us know someone who has been duped by some fly-by-night internet company.

 

Chewy.com offers wide variety of treats, foods, beds, and other pet supplies…delivered fast right to your door. In fact, they carry over 140 different brands. I decided to use my test run to help out dogs in need. My girls had enough food to last a while so I decided to buy food for a local organization that acts as a food pantry for animals in my community. I wanted to make it tough on Chewy.com so I placed my order on the Saturday before a big holiday week. I also bought big, bulky, dry dog food bags. Not that I was setting them up to fail…but I needed to know how they could perform under pressure. Well, to my surprise, I received an email on Sunday with my tracking number! I received my order on Tuesday. The offer quick shipping to the United States.

 

I could not be more happy with Chewy.com! They have free shipping on orders over 49 dollars everyday, even on huge 30 pound bags of dog food! Their prices on my girls’ brand beats most of the other pet supply websites out there. They also have a subscribe and save service. I haven’t tried it, but it sounds great. Automatic delivery of food on a schedule that you choose. No more last-minute trips when you forget you are running out of food!

 

There are couple things I don’t like about the set up of the website itself. I have found it can be a bit difficult to find “new” products by just browsing. Looking at dry dog food you can click “grain free” but the list that comes up is not the entire selection of grain free that they sell. So you miss out, or else you have to look through the hundreds of dog foods they do offer. Basically, they need better categorization and a more thorough organization of their products. However, if you know what you want and type it into the search bar-if they have it, it will find it. I like this for if I don’t want to browse and instead know exactly what I am there to buy.

 

Overall, I highly recommend Chewy.com for your pet supply and especially pet food needs. Great prices, and great service. If you haven’t tried them yet now is the time! If you use this code: TGPO1820 not only will you get 10 percent off your order(first time customers), ten dollars will be donated to charity (at the time of publication, Best Friends Animal Society).

 

However, no matter how great their service is….they can’t keep your coonhound from eating into the box. Thanks Daisy!
