Tips for Raising a Good Dog
I’ve mentioned that I grew up with pets my whole life. There were always a few cats and dogs, with a couple goldfish around the house and one year we had around 15 animals in our home. Yikes right?!

But just like raising good kids, we need to make sure we take the time to teach our pets, especially dogs, to be a good family member. I have studied dog trainer…

And about eleven cats and dogs combined. That was a little extreme I know, but my parents had breed our white Standard Poodle with an Apricot Poodle and they had the cutest puppies! It was not tough finding them homes that is for sure. Fast forward to my college years and my roommate had a boyfriend who had the sweetest Huskey whom he called “Bear”. I thought that was the best name for a dog and vowed to name my future dog…

A Craft & Recipe to Celebrate Your Favorite Furry Friends
The only thing that can make a great movie or TV series even better is a four-legged star. Celebrating pets this month, Netflix has pulled together a few of our favorite dogs, cats and even monkeys who hit the big screen. Aside from upping the cute factor, these loyal companions can deliver important lessons on courage, protection and love. I grew up with lots of pets in the house and I think at one time we had over 10 dogs, 3 cats and a couple goldfish living at our place. Granted, eight of those were puppies our Standard Poodle had just given birth to, but I have always enjoyed…
