Gotcha Day! My 1st Anniversary!!

YAY! Today marks the one year anniversary of the day I was adopted by my family.

I love them SO much, and they love me. It has been a truly wonderful year. I have a big yard to run around in, two comfy beds to sleep on (of course, the "dog bed" is just for my toys...I prefer the bed in the guest room), and a houseful of people who adore me.

I get lots of yummy treats, delicious dinners, and tons of play time every single day. In return, I guard the house, lick everyone as often as possible, and shed sparingly. A match made in Heaven!

Happy Anniversary to me!

Avoid a Tragedy! Get a Breakaway Collar

A very scary thing happened to my friend Fuddy today. Here's the story, as told by her mom:

This morning I came very close to losing Fuddy. She was playing with her friend and the other dog's lower jaw became caught in her collar, in their struggle to break loose, they flipped over, the collar pulled tighter and she began to choke. I mean, she was strangling right in front of me and I could NOT get that collar to unlock--because it was pulled so taut. She was making the most horrifying noises and almost passed out.

I finally got it to unlock--I have NO idea how but I came home, went online and learned this can happen very very easily and quickly. And dogs do DIE like this. So if you leave a collar on your dog while in the house, the yard or your dog plays with others...this can happen.

So please invest in a breakaway collar!

How frightening! Poor Fuddy!!

The way to avoid accidental strangulation is simple: get your dog a breakaway collar. You can purchase one here: Breakaway Collars at CoolDogToys.com

My mom is buying one for me...she loves me!
