How your pets cheer you up

Featuring:

I don't know how they do what they do, but they do it. Sounds kind of silly but Little Bear always was there for me when I had a bad day or didn't feel well. If I was sick he would just lay his head on my knee or sit next to me. If I was just down he would want his belly rubbed or rear end scratched. Sure he knew how to get his way but I think he knew it made me feel better too. I Miss that about Bear. My husband recently changed jobs and is now on the road … read more

Pet treats and Homemade pet foods

Featuring:

Liz (purpurrsmom) just gave me a great idea, well I think its great. I am always looking for good recipes to try for our pets. Maybe if you have them we could have a recipe exchange for pet treats or homemade food for pets??? I have several recipes that our dogs just go crazy for, I know you can get recipes off the web but its always nice to have something someone has tried and knows something about to.

I don't know how I ever cross stitched one christmas present with his 82 lbs. in my lap but we did, and he supervised many projects. Bear was… read more

Featuring:

This is my favorite site in the whole world. I know its weird, I visit hear first before checking my regular mail, I read animal news and don't even watch the nightly news or world news tonight, not even the darn weather to see if its going to rain tomorrow. I've gotten really attached to lots of people, some I'm close to some I admire from afar by reading comments they make on the pet news articles or reading their journals and finding out they have gone through the same things I have with my p… read more

Vacation and your pets

Featuring:

Ok this is the first time in years we have had a family vacation. The last time we went somewhere we left our pets with family. We cannot do this anymore so we had to board our dogs. I was so nervous, I worried for weeks. Penny and Daisy were kenneled together and Maggie had her own space. When we returned they seem fine, they had all lost weight, I assume they just didn't eat as much because they were not home and therefore not happy. I can only wonder how well they were cared for, I did as muc… read more
