We took the “Puppies Are Not Toys Pledge” sponsored by RumpyDog and he sent us this wonderful prize pack from the ASPCA of NYC. We grew up in New York so we feel a special affinity to anything from up there. What great fun this has been to win something for a pledge that we would take anyway, Thank you Rumpy and DeDe and June Buggy for making people smarter about this sad fact.
We love opening boxes and we never won anything before so this was neato! We won a new jingle bell collar (which is a little tight, but maybe they thought we were elf dogs), a new SantaPaws stocking (which is absolutely gorgeous), a cat toy for the kitties, an ASPCA wrist band for Mom, a box of Walker’s Scottie Dog Shortbread cookies for our guests, a box of doggy gift cards, and a really neat orange tote bag to put it all in. Yahoooooo!!! We feel really special. Thank you RumpyDog, you made our day. Also a big thanks to Olivia Melikhov at the ASPCA for getting this to us so quickly.
I don’t have any prizes to give away, but please take the pledge. Your gift is one less animal in a shelter or neglected because they were not right for a family that did not really understand that Pets Are Not Toys.
How exciting. We are part of the Pet Blogger Gift Exchange, and we have been partnered with Pawsitively Pet. You have to go meet this crew. They are something special. I am so excited to be partnered with a blog I never met before. Ann Paws, the human on the site, loves every type of animal, and it shows. She highlights information for every pet owner, and being a former vet tech, is passionate about your pet’s health. As a Texas, US, Mom of 2 adorable girls, and a sweet rat and doggie, she gives you a lot of really good stuff to read and learn.
When you have a dark dog and a light dog, getting the right camera exposure is really hard. Sofie is on my lap on the couch and Louise is on the floor. Yes, those are my piggy pajamas she has her head on (bottom right corner); they are purple. The caption should probably read something more like: “This is my Mommy so go away!,” which seems to be a constant lap battle around her.

Today’s events in a Connecticut elementary school are beyond words. We are heart broken. We mourn with the parents and families. Go swiftly into the light and find eternal peace. – Lorian and the whole Dogdaz family
