stink eye

i don’t think bailey is very happy to see bee on my lap. even though she is in daddy’s arms, she’s still giving bee the stink eye!

product review: instinct raw boost mixers #ChewyInfluencer

since bee is here a few days early, i thought i’d put her to work and have her do our product review for chewy.com (where pet lovers shop).

up for review is freeze-dried raw boost mixers grain-free dog food topper. we ordered the mobility support recipe because bee has been having some joint issues lately and this product "provides natural glucosamine and chondroitin to help support healthy hips and joints." it’s freeze-dried so it’s very easy for any pup to chew and a big plus is that it’s made in the usa.

as far as the taste test goes, it passed with flying colors. bee is a pretty picky eater, so for her to like it, that’s saying a lot.

it is made without any of the stuff you don’t want (grain, corn, wheat, soy, potato, preservatives or artificial flavors) and plenty of the stuff you do want (cage-free chicken, chicken liver, pumpkinseeds, ground flaxseed, salmon oil, and new zealand green mussel, just to name a few).

i like the ingredients. bee liked the taste. it’s a win win.

nutcracker

even though bailey is missing quite a few teeth, she is still trying to do her best nutcracker imitation.

this guy was her inspiration. i think she nailed it.

gotta sniff

bailey went from smelling beautiful flowers...

straight to...

checking for p-mail without skipping a beat. ahh, the scents and smells of going for a walk.

until we meet again my friends-

she’s so excited

with christmas getting closer and closer everyday, bailey is having trouble containing her excitement. the look on her face says it all.

🎶 "i'm so excited, and i just can't hide it,
i'm about to lose control and i think i like it" 🎶

gimme five

i was asking bailey to give me a high five but she was being a lazy bones and refused to sit up.

so she gave a high five while lying down! technically, i think that would be a low five. BOL

rain, rain, go away

the past few days have been very cold. and very wet. and bailey is so over it. and i totally get it. having to go to the bathroom in the rain has got to be the worst. so why does she look so happy? the weekend is here and the rain is gone. woo hoo!

love note

bailey had been napping on my lap and when she got off, i noticed she had left me a little love note; a perfectly shaped heart... of drool! BOL
thank you, bailey. i love you too.

until we meet again my friends-

gotcha!

my, how time flys. it seems like yesterday that little bailey entered our lives, but it’s been 8 years! i can hardly believe it.

this little girl has been through so much but she’s a fighter and has made it through everything that life has thrown at her. who knew a little 4 pound doggie could be so strong.
happy gotcha day, sweetie. i love you sooo much.

post-thanksgiving

i hope everyone’s thanksgiving went off without a hitch and you have recovered from your food coma. this year we did a thanksgiving brunch, with turkey quiche instead of the traditional turkey. as for bailey, she had a scrambled egg with side of veggies.

a surprise for bailey

since bailey has been having so much trouble with her diet, we thought she deserved a treat, so we got her a pupcake.

"mmm"

i cut it in half and broke it to bits for her.

"nom nom nom"

"that was delicious!"

"more?"

of course she loved it, but more importantly, she didn’t throw it up! it was a win, win!
