The Chicken Soup for the Soul book series is known for providing heartwarming stories and My Very Good, Very Bad Dog is a wonderful example of that tradition. If you are looking for a book that’s guaranteed to make any dog lover smile and is easy to read in between your hectic schedule, then Chicken Soup for the Soul’s My Very Good, Very Bad Dog by Amy Newmark is the perfect choice.

No matter the breed or personality of your dog, you will find stories in this book that speak directly to your experiences as a dog owner. You’ll find reassurance that other dogs can be as mischievious as your naughty pet. Your heart will warm with the tales of the human-animal bond. And as you read, you’ll be cuddling closer with your own pets, cherishing the smiles they bring to your life.

I also really enjoyed all of the interesting facts before each story. Did you know there’s a dog collar museum in England? Or that when a dog chews on your shoe, he or she is trying to learn about where you go when you’re not home? And that the Shar-Pei and the Chow are the only two dog breeds that don’t have pink tongues? (Their tongues are a blue/black color in case you were wondering.)

Another heartwarming aspect of this book is that part of the proceeds are donated to charity! All of the author’s royalties from Chicken Soup for the Soul: My Very Good, Very Bad Dog are donated to the American Humane Association. The animals thank you, Amy Newmark!

With the crazy, unpredictable weather lately, this book is the perfect choice to read to the family by candlelight when the power goes out. You’ll have everyone laughing and smiling, forgetting about the stress of the world for a few precious moments.

Fueling the Fashion with Merrick Backcountry – #ChewyInfluencer

Sadie and I love to spend quality time together by having our own little photo shoots. I enjoy exercising my photography skills, Sadie is a natural diva model, and we both love playing with different outfits and accessories to create our own style. For our latest photo shoot celebrating Chewy.com’s fashion week, Sadie and I worked hard matching the perfect hair flair with each fashion fabulous dress.

Fashion and photo shoots require a lot of hard work, from the styling and quick changes to the lighting and set design. So it’s no surprise that we needed to pause for a break now and then to refuel. Sadie found the perfect fuel for this particular photo shoot: Merrick Backcountry Freeze-Dried Raw Meal or Mixers. These bite size moresels pack a ton of protein, perfect for an on-the-go energy boost!

As the name suggests, Merrick Backcountry Freeze-Dried Meal or Mixers can be eaten as a complete, balanced meal or as a mix-in to complement your dog’s regular kibble. Just follow the portion guide on the bag, add a little water, and your dog has delicious, nutritious meal. Or you can add a portion of Mixers into a portion of your dog’s kibble. Just remember to reduce the amount of regular kibble you serve based on how much of the Mixers you add, thus ensuring you don’t overfeed your dog. Adding these Freeze-Dried Meal or Mixers is a great way to make your dog’s meals more exciting, keeping your dog interested in eating healthy dog food.

Sadie tried the beef formula, which lists deboned beef as the first ingredient. Other ingredients include potatoes, carrots, blueberries, and apples, providing a good mix of fruits and vegetables to create a balanced meal in each serving. This is the perfect source of crude proteins and fats that my little pup needs to stay healthy and energized. And my picky pup thoroughly enjoyed her Freeze-Dried beef portion. She kept interrupting our photo shoot to snack on the samples I had on display!

Merrick Backcountry Freeze-Dried Raw Meal or Mixers are available in three different varieties: beef, chicken, and salmon. You can even purchase the corresponding versions for cats! The beef and salmon varieties are poultry free for any pets with a poultry intolerance. All of the Merrick Backcountry Freeze-Dried Raw Meal or Mixers are grain, gluten, and soy free, with no artificial preservatives, flavors or colors.

Start Your Day with a Smile with Hill’s Breakfast Medleys

It’s important to start your day the right way. You need to fuel your mind and body to handle whatever comes your way throughout the day. For you that may be a long shower, and quick workout, a refreshing smoothie, or an hour of relaxing in front of the TV. But pet owners must also make sure to help their animals start off their days on the right track. Whether your dog enjoys a long walk or a quick play session every morning, all dogs must start the day with a good breakfast. And there’s no better way to end breakfast than with a yummy little treat like Hill’s Ideal Balance Breakfast Medleys. This little treat is sure to put a smile on any dog’s face, and what better way to start your day than seeing your animals happy?

The first time I saw these treats they immediately put a smile on my face. Whoever decided to make breakfast dog treats look like little waffles is a culinary genius in my book. How could any pet parent resist getting little doggie waffles for their precious pooches? As you can see in my photos, I’ve decided that with these treats and some human waffles, Sadie and I will be starting a new breakfast in bed tradition on Sundays.

If you’re not a breakfast in bed with your dog type person, there are still a ton of great reasons to give your dog Hill’s Breakfast Medleys treats at breakfast time, or any other time. Those tiny waffles make a great reward for a successful, well-behaved morning walk. Another great way to start the day is with a short dog training session, either teaching a new trick or practicing an established skill. With a morning training session you can get some good bonding time with your dog before the necessities of the day take away your time and attention. And your dog can start the day off with the mind and body exercise and self esteem boost that a good training session provides. A Hill’s Ideal Balance Breakfast Medleys treat at the end of training is the perfect way to let your dog know that he or she did a good job.

Hill’s Breakfast Medleys may look like tiny waffles, but in fact these grain free treats are made with chicken and eggs. Chicken is the number one ingredient, providing your dog with a good boost of protein in the morning. And there are no artificial preservatives, colors, or flavors. Hill’s products are all natural, all made in the USA.
