                <p>We are simply devastated by the scope of destruction caused by Hurricane Harvey this past week in Texas, (and pray that Louisiana is spared.) The more I watch the more I feel helpless. I did want to share a few ways that you can help. If you click on the photo below, you will be taken to a blog post that our friends at <strong><a href="https://rumpydog.com/2017/08/28/so-ya-wanna-help-those-in-south-texas/">Rumpy Dog</a></strong> wrote earlier in the week that lists fabulous ways that you can help.</p> <a href="https://rumpydog.com/2017/08/28/so-ya-wanna-help-those-in-south-texas/">

I have been missing a certain Sheltie for quite some time now and I thought that today, Valentine\u2019s Day was the perfect time to remind her of just how much I love her.  PHOTO COURTESY OF PHANG PHOTOS,  Those of you who have been regularly reading my blog through the years, know that I share a special love with a certain Sheltie named \u201cEva\u201d. She used to blog regularly, but now, with life being so busy, she hasn\u2019t had a chance. That hasn\u2019t affected the love I feel for her. I just don\u2019t get to see her as often as I would like. The photo above was created a few years ago by Eva\u2019s human sister Rosie, the talented photographer behind Eva\u2019s blog, and the human who created Phang Photos . Mom found this old video on my blog that was also a dedication to Eva and since she has been on my mind so strongly, I wanted to share it with all of you.  Even though Eva and I are far apart and have never met in pawson, we have a love for each other that will live furever. My wish for all of you today, is that you are lucky enough to have the same! Whether it be cats, dogs, gerbils, humans, whatever, may you have some ONE or some FURRY, who will love you FUREVER AND EVER even if they are OCEANS away!!  I am still true to you precious Eva!

However, it can be challenging to have pets of different types especially if those pets are a dog and a cat. If you have a dog and a cat at home, fear not. While dogs and cats may not naturally be the easiest of friends, there are some steps you can take to make sure that your furry buddies get along okay, and that they stay safe, healthy and happy around one another. Here are some helpful tips for keeping your dog and cat in great shape under the same roof.  Introduce them Slowly and Safely The first step to ensuring that your cat and dog live okay in the same space is the introduction. Introduce your cat and dog in a safe, slow and calm way. Make sure your dog is in a space that he cannot escape from, then allow your cat to see, smell and investigate your dog from a separate room. You can allow your cat to go into the dog\u2019s space and investigate him, but you should allow your cat an easy escape if he or she feels threatened or overwhelmed by the dog. This can ensure that he or she doesn\u2019t experience undue anxiety, and that if your dog gets too worked up, it\u2019s easy to de-escalate the situation and calm him or her down. Hang Out Together With Your Dog on the Leash After the introduction goes okay, if you\u2019re still uncertain how your dog will react to the cat, spend some time hanging out with the both of them in the same room \u2014 but with your dog on a leash. That way, you can control where he or she goes and what he or she can physically do, but he or she can enjoy being in the same space as the cat without a barrier.  Keep the Cat\u2019s Food and Litter Box Somewhere Separate and Safe Cats are territorial about their food and their litter box. Keep it somewhere where the dog can\u2019t access to ensure your cat feels like he or she has an escape and that he or she can be safe when eating and going to the bathroom. Consider making a space for your cat that is separated by a baby gate that a dog can\u2019t get over. This isn\u2019t only in your cat\u2019s interest, but your dog\u2019s too. You can stop your dog from eating your cat\u2019s food, which isn\u2019t good for him or her \u2014 or from getting into your cat\u2019s litter box and consuming things that can hurt his or her stomach. Having a dog and cat is a fun way to add love to your family. However, if your dog and cat don\u2019t naturally get along, or you\u2019re worried that there might be tension, fear not. There are some simple steps you can take to protect both animals, and make sure that they help keep your house a place that is thriving, calm, and loving. If you have a particularly challenging animal or you\u2019re worried about how one of your animals might react to a new one being brought into the house, consult your vet during a regular visit \u2014 like when to get flea or tick treatment or for heart disease treatment with Vetmedin. If you\u2019re looking for an additional resource that can assist you in heart disease treatment for your dog, look here for how Allivet pet pharmacy can provide more affordable pet medication.

We are HUGE popcorn fans in our home (we have it 2- 3 times per week). This holiday is the perfect time to share portions of an older blog post, I am sure there are some who haven\u2019t seen this. Hope you enjoy! Dakota loves nothing more than sharing some popcorn with me (don\u2019t worry, I pop mine myself, the old-fashioned way with the KERNELS, but yes I do it in the microwave and I don\u2019t give him much!) I pop mine in the microwave in a bowl with a lid (with no oil, you can also do it in a brown paper bag). When it comes out, I drizzle it with olive oil and Parmesan cheese. Being the brilliant Sheltie that Dakota is, he KNOWS when you are talking about POPCORN, even if you SPELL IT! He also knows what the container looks like that I keep it in and will begin losing his mind whenever he sees it!  \u00a0 Being the HORRIBLE doggy Mom that I am, I often like to egg Dakota on, (he\u2019s just sooo easy to get worked up!), and that is just what I was doing the other night. Enjoy this silly video and please excuse my \u201csinging!!\u201d Dakota had actually \u201csung\u201d with me the day before, and I was trying to get him to do it again, but I wasn\u2019t horribly successful!

This is 194 more than last year\u2019s record high of 1,721.  Mimi  The last adoption of 2017 was a dog named Mimi. She was brought into the shelter on Christmas Eve as a stray dog. After a bath and some trimming to remove the burrs from her fur, her personality began to show through. Mimi found her forever home with Mary from Ann Arbor the day she became available. To start the New Year, the first adoption of 2018 was Kass, a sweet lost cat. She went home with Caeley Nau from Taylor.  Kass  \u201c2017 saw the need in our community increase to record levels,\u201d said Elaine Greene, executive director, FAMD.  \u201cI give a lot of credit to staff and volunteers for the hard work and creativity they approach our work with every day. We\u2019ve got another big year ahead with the construction and opening of our new shelter later in 2018.\u201d The Animal Adoption \u0026 Education Center (AAEC) will be located at the former Amtrak station in Dearborn at 16121 Reckinger Road, just off Michigan Avenue near the Henry Ford Centennial Library. The land was donated to FAMD by the City of Dearborn. The AAEC will be a new, state-of-the-art animal shelter that provides homeless animals a refuge in an environmentally-friendly facility. It will replace the current shelter at 2661 Greenfield Road, which is almost 40 years old, overcrowded and no longer suitable for the animals or the people who care for them.

All opinions are our own.  TEN\u2026LONG\u2026YEARS. Let me say that again, TEN\u2026LONG\u2026YEARS\u2026that is how long it has taken me to find a pet bed that Dakota will use. You name it, we tried it and Dakota would NEVER USE any pet bed that has entered our home, (other than a flat pad that was called a bed, but in my opinion was not a bona fide bed, and even THAT was rarely used). Any and all pet beds that Dakota received were promptly given to family members and\/or friends COMPLETELY UNUSED. A few weeks ago I was contacted by a California-based company,  \u00a0 they had seen Dakota on Instagram and asked me if I would like to review one of their new beds. After visiting the Brentwood Home website, learning about the company and after having viewed their beautifully designed beds, I experienced a moment of totally forgetting who my dog is. I jumped at the chance to review one of their beds. I had completely forgotten that MY DOG DOES NOT, NEVER HAS and most likely NEVER WOULD sleep in a dog bed. I was setting myself up for a disaster, or so I thought. Throwing caution to the wind I chose the Runyon Deluxe Pet Bed , size Medium (34-inch X 24-inch), my color of choice, Mocha. I chose the size based on Dakota\u2019s size (28 lbs), and I knew the color would go perfectly with our furniture, carpet, floors\u2026and\u2026DAKOTA!  When Dakota\u2019s bed arrived, I looked at the long, narrower than I expected, rectangular box and thought \u201cThere is a BED in there?\u201d When I opened the box there was a beautiful bed resting covered in TONS of protective, heavy plastic wrapping! It was Dakota\u2019s new bed that I was certain he would NEVER USE!  The color was just perfect and exactly as I hoped it would be!  With Dakota being a senior dog, I love that the gel memory foam and orthopedic support foam that this bed has, helps relieve and prevent body aches, joint pain, hip dysplasia, and arthritis. Dakota sometimes seems a little stiff when he awakens and stretches and I am hoping this bed will help with that. The Runyon model that I have, also has bolster edges for additional support when needed. I was extra thrilled because I hoped that I would no longer watch Dakota sleep using the dining room table base as his pillow.  With all of the amazing features this bed has I wanted to sleep on it! The furniture grade upholstery cover is easy to wash and stain resistant! Of course, because the bed was meant for Dakota, it was NOT \u201ccat-resistant.\u201d  Yep, there was Cody just smiling and dreaming away on Dakota\u2019s new bed! After a few days, Dakota still hadn\u2019t tried it and I was panicking. I went into the Sheltie group I am a member of on Facebook and asked if their Shelties used beds. The overwhelming majority said \u201cNo\u201d, they preferred the floor. We all came to the conclusion that Shelties are so furry that they travel with their beds attached to them! I was discouraged, but not about to give up! For the next few days I gave Dakota his treat dispenser IN THE BED. Maybe that would work! Worst case scenario would be that Cody would end up reviewing the bed, but I was still not giving up. Then, one night as I was sitting in the dark, (without a camera), I caught a glimpse of a furry creature laying on the bed, it was Dakota! I didn\u2019t want to discourage him from using the bed so I didn\u2019t get my camera. I prayed this wouldn\u2019t be the only time that he used the bed. It wasn\u2019t\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026he has used it EVERY NIGHT SINCE!

I was not compensated monetarily for this post because in keeping with the spirit of \u201cGiving\u201d at Thanksgiving, I chose to waive my fee. If in doubt about any product for your dog or cat to drink, ask your Veterinarian first, as I did!  There is nothing I love more than when I discover a company that has quirky, fun and interesting products, AND they are a company that gives back! The company I am featuring today, Pet Winery, is that company!  The holiday season officially kicks off this week with the arrival of Thanksgiving in the U.S. Humans often enjoy indulging in some holiday \u201ccheer\u201d, why should your pets miss out? Now, they don\u2019t have to!  \u00a0 Pet Winery features PetWines, PetChampagne, DogBeer, Martinis and PetTEA for dogs AND cats! (Spoiler Alert: Cody will be featuring products on his blog with a give-away on December 1st.) Pet Winery was founded to create healthy beverages and treats for your canine and feline friends. They are animal enthusiasts and work hard to make products that are vitamin enriched, healthy and safe for your best friend. They are located in Florida and only use US organic products to ensure the highest level of quality. All products are produced in a food grade lab in an ISO7 clean room.  When Dakota and Cody\u2019s products arrived I was just dying with how clever and adorable they are! Dakota received BarkBrew Beef Ale and Dog Pawrignon featured below:  BarkBrew Beef Ale: Beer for dogs! How funny is that? Available in 3 great flavors; Chicken Ale, Beef Ale, or Calm Ale (Salmon oil and Hemp oil.) Dog Pawrignon: Champagne for dogs! Formulated so you can now pop bottles with your dogs! This 12oz bottle is the perfect drink. Blended with filtered water, a healthy dose of salmon oil (wild caught) and organic food coloring. THE BOTTLES ARE SAFE, THEY ARE NOT GLASS. I checked with my Vet first before allowing Dakota to taste both drinks (at separate times), and he said as with anything else, if it is something your pet isn\u2019t used to, giving an extremely small amount is the wise way to go. (Both bottles have suggested serving amounts listed on them)  Pet Winery Gives Back!! Pet Winery Estates knows \u201cthat every paw matters.\u201d As a result, they decided to work together with Shelters, Rescues, Humane Societies, and other pet adoption agencies. Each month they feature a different agency and donate a portion of their sales to them! By featuring a different agency each month you will get to find out who the agency is, what they do and their mission. You will get to know their team and meet some of their adoptable pets. By donating a portion of each purchase to the agencies featured, they are helping them continue what they do best, \u201cfinding homes for their Pawfriends.\u201d How cool is that? Your purchase will help them make a difference, so visit their website and make a purchase for your pets today! There is even a special for Black Friday 30% OFF WITH CODE: BLACKFRIDAY (*not available on bundle deals).  NOT SURE WHAT TO BUY YOUR FAMILY AND FURIENDS WITH PETS?

One of my favorite holidays is right around the corner, Thanksgiving. It is a favorite of mine for a number of reasons, yes, the food is decadent and scrumptious, but I love Thanksgiving for another huge reason as well, it enables me to stop, take a deep breath from the trials and pressures of life in my daily world, as well as the world around us, and take stock of what I am thankful for. This is something I should be doing every day, but like many others, I do not do it enough. Some of the things I am thankful for are my husband, my family, friends, a roof over our heads, food on our table and the pets by my side. This year in particular I am especially thankful for Dakota. This self-professed \u201ccat person\u201d and this incredibly sensitive and loving dog have become obsessed with each other. I am sure this didn\u2019t happen overnight, Dakota is now ten years old, it has been ten years in the making.  Dakota is the first dog I have had as an adult. When I was a child we had a dog, but I had never had one on my own until Dakota. When Dakota first joined our family, I was clueless. I had cats for approximately 20 years and knew nothing about caring for a dog. Dakota not only helped me learn about dogs in general, but with his unconditional love and devotion, he enabled ME to learn about HIM. 1. Dakota Expanded My Horizons: Having been immersed in the world of cats for so many years, I am thankful that having Dakota enabled me to meet some of the most knowledgeable dog bloggers in the world. Some of them I have been blessed to meet in person, others I am close to via email and their blogs. Many have become like family to me and they have enriched my life more than they could know.  2. Dakota enabled me to be a Brand Ambassador for a Company that I am honored to represent: I am thankful that Dakota enabled me to take my years of loving all things Rachael Ray, (long before I ever had a blog), to an entirely different level. When I first bought Nutrish in 2008, Dakota didn\u2019t have a blog, (his blog began in 2011, a thank you to Yvonne DiVita at BlogPaws who strongly suggested that Dakota have his own blog, even if I was kicking and screaming that I did not want Dakota to have a blog, because I already had a cat blog, and how would I ever manage TWO blogs?)  I never dreamed that Dakota\u2019s blog would lead he and I to be Brand Ambassadors for Rachael Ray Nutrish. It is an honor that I cherish and I am proud to have been a part of for nearly 5 years. I am thankful for this relationship on so many levels. It is a complete delight to work with the people I am involved with at Nutrish, and it delights me because Dakota truly eats Nutrish (and has since 2008). Authenticity is important to me, and it is a HUGE component of our blog. I am also grateful to be an Ambassador for Rachael Ray Nutrish because Rachael as a person, and the brand as a whole, truly cares about animals and gives back. Rachael Ray created:Rachael\u2019s Rescue\u00ae which came about to care for all of the forgotten pets \u2013 the ones who might not have someone who loves them as much as they deserve. A portion of proceeds from each sale of Nutrish is donated to The Rachael Ray Foundation, which helps animals in need through Rachael\u2019s Rescue. Through September 2017, Rachael\u2019s Rescue has donated more than $21 million dollars to pet charities and other organizations that do good for animals. The funds are used for food,medical supplies, treatments, and more for animals in need. Many more animals around the country need help, and through Rachael\u2019s Rescue, together we can make a difference in the lives of many four-legged friends. \u00a0   3. Dakota has taught me to be a \u201clittle\u201d more patient: I am thankful that Dakota taught me that yes, \u201cpatience IS a virtue.\u201d I am NOT known for being patient. Living with and loving Dakota has taught me that things aren\u2019t necessarily going to happen when I want them to. Housebreaking a dog, teaching commands, learning how to interact with each other, it all takes TIME and PATIENCE. There are many \u201chow to train a dog\u201d books that have been written, I have read a ton of them, but an important point that must be taken into consideration is, what is \u201ctried and true\u201d for some, might not be \u201ctried and true\u201d for all. Each dog, just like each human who lives with a dog is an individual. What motivates one, may not motivate another. I try to make sure I remember that Dakota isn\u2019t a \u201ccookie-cutter\u201d dog. Taking the time to learn about MY dog and only MY dog is one of many lessons that Dakota has taught me that I am thankful for. While Dakota appreciates that I have become more patient there is still one thing he wishes that HE could be thankful for\u2026\u2026.what is it? That when it comes to taking photos, that I would just disappear!  There you have it, those were my 3 Reasons Why I Am Thankful For My Dog (yes I have a TON more but you have better things to do than to read about a ZILLION reasons why I am thankful for my dog).  Now it\u2019s YOUR turn, what are YOU thankful for? What has your dog taught you? Has your dog \u201cMade the switch to Nutrish?\u201d Leave us a comment below and tell us, we would LOVE to hear! About Rachael Ray Nutrish: In 2007, with help from pet nutrition experts, Rachael Ray created Nutrish super-premium food and treats for dogs inspired by recipes from her own kitchen. In 2014, we were very excited to grow the brand into the world of cat food.

Available at:  Click to visit!!   Hi everyone! It\u2019s Dakota and yep I am writing this post but I am afraid you won\u2019t be seeing me today. Why? Because I recently received a Cuddle Blanket (Sleepytime by Petflys, available at Mirage Pet Products), that a certain kitty has stolen!! Yes my furiends, Cody stole my blanket!!!!!!  See what I mean? In fairness, I don\u2019t blame Cody for taking over my blanket even if it IS intended for dogs. We all know that cats are connoisseurs of comfort and coziness and Cody IS a cat. There are many dogs who ARE attracted to blankets, some of them even carry them around the house in their mouths, or they sleep on them in their beds. Often their pawrents will put a blanket in their crate, and if the dog is a puppy the Cuddle Blanket would bring he or she LOTS of soothing comfort. It would be perfect to have in a pet carrier for a trip to the Vet or to swaddle a smaller dog. Many dogs like to lounge on the couch or in a chair. I am not one of those dogs. I am super fluffy and carry my own blanket and bed right on my back! I rarely climb on to the couch and I don\u2019t sleep in chairs. So, what cat WOULDN\u2019T take over a velvety soft, unattended blanket? Cody was simply acting like the thief cat that he is, nothing wrong with that! Truth be told, when Mom was selecting items from Mirage Pet Products for Cody and I to feature on our blogs, when Mom selected this blanket, she completely had Cody on her mind because she knew that Cody would LOVE it, Mom didn\u2019t care that the blanket is meant for dogs, she saw no reason why cats can\u2019t enjoy it too! Mom thinks those \u201cFunky Monkeys\u201d are just too cute! They remind her of the sock monkeys from the Stone Age when she was young. Mom says this blanket is sooooooo soft and velvety that it would also be good for human babies! Psssst: don\u2019t tell, but Mom wants this same blanket in a larger size\u2026FOR HER!!!  Mom just might be in luck! Mirage Pet Products has these pet blankets and there are a number of sizes (and different patterns) available! The size I received is a 1\/2 blanket which is 30 x 36 inches. I guess Mom would want the Luxurious Plush Big Baby Blanket in the Funky Monkey pattern for HER!! So my furry pals, whether you are a dog, cat or a HUMAN, you have GOT to get this blanket and feel the softness for yourself! It would make a great gift for the pet (or pet lover!) in your life! Oh and when it arrives, if you don\u2019t want it stolen you had better act FAST!!

Logo Courtesy of Shannon Kopp     SoulPaws utilizes rescue dogs and therapy animals (dogs, puppies, miniature horses, guinea pigs, rabbits, rats, and more) to help women overcome food and body issues. The nonprofit provides free online and in-person animal-assisted therapy workshops\u2014designed to combat the shame and secrecy so inherent in eating disorders. Live workshops are held monthly by trained facilitators, who are licensed therapists, social workers, or marriage and family therapist interns. Journaling, meditation, sharing on recovery oriented topics, and one-on-one time with the animals are a part of each workshop experience.     Studies show that time spent with animals not only improves our physical health, but our mental and emotional well-being. \u201cThe lack of judgment, lack of expectations, nonverbal interaction, sensory engagement through touch, evident behavior of the animal, and restorative\/fun experience are elements that have made the human-animal interaction qualitatively different from human interactions,\u201d says SoulPaws Executive Board Member, Dr. Patricia Flaherty Fischette, Ph.D.   soulpaws participant and therapy dog. Photo Courtesy of Shannon Kopp     SoulPaws Founder, Shannon Kopp, shared with PEOPLE: \u201cEating disorders are often described as a disease of disconnection. The goal of SoulPaws is to not only help the participants connect with animals and each other, but to experience freedom from their eating disorder and a reunion with their true, authentic selves.\u201d   In late November, SoulPaws will be teaming up with Recovery Warriors to offer their biggest online animal-assisted therapy workshop yet at the FoodBodyLove Rally.

SoulPaws utilizes a variety of therapy animals, including dogs, miniature horses, guinea pigs, rabbits, rats, and more.

Back in September Mom and I were reading a blog that we follow regularly (My Rotten Dogs) and they were having a give-away for a Molly Mutt Car Seat Cover.   My Dad had just leased a new Honda Accord and was already getting frantic about having me ride in it too soon. Why? Because Shelties are known to have an abundance of fur and said-fur gets all over Dad\u2019s back seat. Mom and I were quite familiar with Molly Mutt because we had won a bed some time ago, and we both decided that since their products are so well made, we wanted to enter this give-away and hopefully surprise my OCD Dad by winning the Car Seat Cover. Well, I won and I am doing Sheltie Spins of joy that I did! The Molly Mutt Car Seat Covers are super versatile and stylish! They can be used as traditional car seat covers, cargo covers or a hammock cover. Before I show you my photos (because of course I never use ANY product in a traditional way), I want to show you a photo from the Molly Mutt website that shows the cover being used three different ways. You will notice in the photo below that the cover is put in the car in a neat and tidy manner, (not like the way that my Mom put ours in for our Dad!)  Photo Courtesy of the Molly Mutt Website. Click to visit and purchase  The Molly Mutt car seat cover not only protects your back seat or cargo area, it also adds an extra bit of style. fits all vehicles with headrests covers the back seat or cargo area adjustable straps for easy on\/off seat belt slots so you can buckle up seat anchors \u0026 non-skid backing keep the cover in place dimensions: 56\u2033 x 56\u2033 you can also add embroidery! When I won, Mom and I selected the same cover that is featured in the photo above. It is called \u201cRocketman\u201d (and you are welcome for the earworm I just gave you with Elton John buzzing in your head!) When you see my photos below you will notice that Mom did NOT use the adjustable straps or the seat belt slots. Why? Because Dad\u2019s wants\/needs for the use of HIS cover is different from most. The reason for that is because I am only a 25 lb Sheltie, I am NOT a giant dog who takes up the entire back seat both in length OR height! Dad\u2019s main concern for his car is that the seat that I plop my butt on (and that passengers in his car plop THEIR butt on), is covered, AND, because I tend to also like to sit ON THE FLOOR, Dad wanted part of the FLOOR covered as well. (That is because my fur sticks to the carpeting in the car like velcro!)  Leave it to us to ALWAYS add a new spin on ways to use products! It might not be the textbook \u201cright\u201d way but it WORKS for us and FULFILLS OUR NEEDS! Now that we have a Molly Mutt Car Seat Cover my fur doesn\u2019t shed on the seat or the floor which makes Dad happy and in turn makes Mom and I happy because we don\u2019t have to listen to him yapping about not wanting to have me ride in his new car! (The nerve of him!) Thanks Molly Mutt and our furiends at My Rotten Dogs! The car seat cover functions the way that WE need it to function and we couldn\u2019t be happier! Woofies go and visit Molly Mutt and get one for yourself too! Barks and licks and love,  Dakota  \u00a0 \u00a0 In full disclosure:we were not compensated for writing about the Molly Mutt Car Seat Cover. We chose to feature it on our blog as a thank you for having won it, which in our world is the proper thing to do when one wins a prize from a blog.

Here\u2019s what we found:  Best \u0026 Worst Pets for Apartment Living Created By:  ForRent.com \u00a0 Educating people on the best pets for smaller spaces will hopefully reduce the number of pets
