KONG PRODUCT REVIEWS!

Hey Pals,

We have some new KONG products to review for you.

KONG has several new products for feline fun and doggy fun.  So check these out:

Scuby is here showing you the NEW Feline Denim Toys, the DENIM KICKAROO, DENIM SNAILS and DENIM RINGS.  On the right of the picture she has the Dog KONG TRAXX toy and the KONG ZOOMGROOM.

The Denim Cat toys are all filled with the added bonus of KONG's Premium North American Catnip.  Let me tell you, all of our cats go wild for this stuff.

All five of our cats were rubbing and pawing at the toys before Mama could even get them out of the packages.  They LOVE CATNIP!

Check out Sylvester below, he's going nutso for that toy, licking it like crazy!

KONG’s Denim Toys are available in Denim Mice with Feather Tails, Denim Snails and Denim Rings, all of which come two to a package.  The line also includes a Denim Ball with Feathers and a Denim Kickeroo, complete with fuzzy tail and a pocket that resembles the back pocket on a pair of jeans, perfect for stuffing a little extra catnip for kitties that have been extra good!  You can read more about these products and more at PetPitch USA.

Now Sparky here is playing with the new KONG TRAXX tire dog toy.  He simply loves it.  He plays with it each day and refuses to let me Katie have it, hahahaha! 

KONG has taken the tough, durable rubber used in its Extreme KONG toys and molded it into a fun, new shape – new KONG Traxx toys, sturdy and strong “monster truck” style toys ideal for aggressive chewers of all sizes. And just like the original KONG and Extreme KONG, there’s plenty of room inside for treats!

The inner rim of each Traxx toy has been left hollow and has a unique treat-gripping design perfect for holding a dog’s favorite treats.  But they’re not just for treats – like the red rubber KONG, the extreme rubber bounces unpredictably for wild, fun fetching games, and the round tire shape of Traxx adds a new dimension – rolling!  They roll great on our wood flooring.  Sparky loves to chase it.

Here is the KONG ZOOMGROOM! We have the small blue size.  The Small ZoomGroom is great for grooming, bathing and reducing shedding, but in a size more appropriate and manageable for smaller dogs. The pliant ZoomGroom bends to follow the contours of a dog’s body and its 3/4” long conical rubber teeth reach down through even the longest coats, massaging and stimulating circulation and removing loose hair, dead skin and dander.

Although this is made for dogs and puppies, it also works great on our cats!  They love how it massages their skin too.  To read more about this visit PetPitch USA.

So if you're looking for new products for your pets, be sure to check these out!

THANKS AGAIN KONG!

HAPPY EARTH DAY 22APRIL2012

We hope you enjoy this Red Admiral Butterfly.  We have THOUSANDS of these flying around on our land.  They showed up about 3 weeks ago and we hope they stay.  Sometimes critters, birds, butterflies just pass through here on their migrating trips to the North.

These butterflies love to land on us dogs and even on Mama.  They especially like the yellow dandelion flowers.

HAPPY EARTH DAY 2012!

ORIJEN DOG FOOD REVIEW FROM MR CHEWY

Hey Pals,

We tried another product from Mr. Chewyhttp://www.mrchewy.com/ to review for you.

Orijen 6 Fish Dry Dog Food

And we must say we LOVE it!  Even our cat Hootie loves it.  When Mama fills our food bowls, Hootie steals the fish food from our bowl, silly cat!

We added the fish food to our current buffalo dry dog food.  By mixing both foods we get more fiber in our diet.  Fiber is just as important for pets as it is for humans.

Now keep in mind:

70+ Brands – Mr. Chewy offers a wide selection and adding new in demand brands regularly.

Subscription based ordering for hassle free delivery of your favorite products.

Prompt shipping throughout the United States.

Free Shipping for any order over $49

Mr. Chewy has a 100 percent guaranteed return policy.  Package must be returned in the same way as received.

Customer service is open 7 days a week from 8 am to 8 pm EST

They have a referral/tell a friend program that benefits animals in need: https://www.mrchewy.com/app/account/about/referrals

Mama is very happy that they carry all of the dog and cat food brands that we buy.   We now get our HOOOOGE bags of food delivered right to our door.

With 7 furry mouths to feed, we go through a lot of food!

Are you in the market for a pet food delivery service with great prices, a HOOOOGE selection, and customer service that cares, Mr. Chewy is the company for your dogs and cats.

FLOWERING TREES & COMPUTER CRASH!

Hey Pals,

This is our first post on our new computer!  Almost 2 weeks ago, our old old old computer crashed and burned and bit the dust.  It also took with it over 5,000 photos that were destroyed.  The photo files were even corrupt on the last few backups on our external hard drive.  Most of these photos were the ones taken in the last year which included many of Sparky's puppy pictures.  Mama was soooooooooooooooooooooooo mad!

Since Mama is part GEEK, she took the old puter apart, tore out the hard drive and hooked it up to the new puter to see if she could restore any of the corrupt data.  No such luck!  Gone forever.  Luckily we could copy many of the photos from our blog this past year and facebook posts.  So at least we have some of our favorites back.

We decided to post photos of our many flowering trees today.  This year our trees have bloomed a full 6 weeks ahead of normal due to our mild winter.  Now we must worry about the frost they are forecasting for tonight.  We sure hope it doesn't hit as it would probably ruin the flowers & buds and many of the new young leaves on some of our trees.  The bees have been busy pollinating our apple trees so we hope they will be ok.

First here are our Magnolia trees, a pink one and yellow one:

Next are the Redbud trees:

Now this is a closeup of the flowers when they first start to open:

And this is what they look like fully opened:

Here are some Canadian Geese that landed in our ponds a few nights ago:

Here are some pictures of the flowers on our Flowering Crab Apple trees and Apple trees:

We still have 2 more flowering Crab Apple trees just starting to bloom.  So we'll wait to take photos when the flowers are open a bit more.

When we were walking around taking photos, three deer were sleeping under some of our bushes by the apple trees.  We scared them, so they ran to the back of our land just behind the fence.  We caught a photo of the Mama deer staring at us:
