A Subtle Revelry | dog treat birthday candles • A Subtle Revelry Our sweet pup turned six this month and we threw a little doggie birthday party! These doggie bone treat candles make me just giddy.

Petscaping Your Garden "Petscaping" your Garden Creating a garden space in the smallest yard or patio for your dog or cat can be accomplished by planting edible grasses, herbs and flowers in a container for your pet to enjoy. The fragrance and appearance of plants and flowers are a source of enjoyment for you and your pets. Pets will often consume flowers and foliage, which is not a problem if non-toxic plants are available for them to enjoy. Like their wild ancestors, our domestic dogs and cats consume grasses and other plants probably in an attempt to self-medicate and possibly to supplement a diet of mainly processed food. This container garden can also be useful as a training tool to keep your pet away from areas that are not for her consumption. Hardy, edible plants for a container garden: Millet grass Lemon Grass Catnip/catmint Oregano Nastursium Pansies, violas, violets Coneflowers (Echinacea) Contact Creekside Critter Care for more pet friendly garden ideas!

Welcome to the International Indian Dog Owners and Breeders Association website! Peanut Butter and Banana Dog Treats Ya wanna know a fun fact about me? I think dogs are kinda gross. They sniff and lick and, I’m not sure if you know this or not, but they don’t even use toilet paper after they potty. But, then again, I’ve never had a dog and I’ve spent my entire life avoiding everyone else’s dogs, so what do I know? I decided I’d had enough. I bought a dog. Her sniffs are adorable, her licks are precious, and okay, toilet paper would make her even better, but it’s totally not a deal breaker. Oh, also? I’m in love. The dough for these rolls out very easy so long as you use plenty of flour for your work surface and the top of your dough. For those of you who are curious, Biscuit is a Zuchon – a ShihTzu and Bichon Frise mix. Peanut Butter and Banana Dog Treats Ingredients 1 egg1 large banana, mashed1/3 cup peanut butter1 tablespoon pure maple syrup1 cup whole wheat flour1/2 cup rolled oats1 egg white, lightly beaten, for brushing (optional) Instructions Preheat oven to 300 degrees. adapted from allrecipes

let's make {pet pouches} I don't want to offend anyone by being too graphic, but Lola and I take a lot of walks and jogs and sometimes I forget to bring along a little baggie for...well, you know. So, it dawned on my on a recent excursion that I could make a little "wallet" to store a plastic baggie right on her collar. Of course they have little baggy things that dangle from the collar, but I know I wouldn't like that banging around, and I thought Lola'd be annoyed by it too. She's kinda particular. Anyway, here's a quick little project to make such a pouch. let's make {pet pouches} You'll need just a few items for this project:fabric (3" x 8") swatchneedle and thread (a sewing machine makes this project lightning fast, but isn't necessary)straight pinsscissors2 inches of 1" wide velcro To begin, cut your fabric into a 3x8" rectangle (I've had this ruler since grade school in case you were wondering). Fold each of the short ends over by 1/2 inch and sew down the center of the fabric, 1/4 inch from the fold.

Gift Recipe: Homemade Dog Treats — Recipes from The Kitchn While we're coming up with special treats for one another during the holidays, let's not forget our four-legged companions. The canines in our lives aren't necessarily looking for the sweets that we indulge in this time of year, but their tastebuds will thank you for this little bit of bacon-y goodness.
