Doggie It's Cold Outside!

Doggie paws get cold too! Just a hint - salt and dry cold damage pup's pads. You might notice him/her licking the pads; or perhaps you'll see little cracks. In deep cold it's a good idea to periodically lubricate pup's paw pads with Bag Balm, vasoline, or vitamin E oil. Baby oil and mineral oil work okay too. Rub it in to each pad well so s/he can't eat it. And if he or she lifts one or more feet up while outside, bring him/her indoors right away. Lifted paws mean "Ouch!"

Java turns Two

Java the labradoodle turned 2 years old today, so we gave her a Puppy Patty treat and she couldn't get it down fast enough. She must have been saying something we couldn't hear to the other dogs because nobody dared interfere!

Note the hat is not on the head. That was Java's choice as well.

"There's a limit to sharing," Crosby exclaims.

Today is Crosby the puggle's birthday and he somewhat unwittingly shared his puppy patty treat with his Doggie Den pals. However, when it came to the container, he set his paws down.
