Hump Day

What is “hump day”? I always thought that “hump day” was a day of the week – more specifically – Wednesday. That’s just a given in the work-a-day world of humans. Have you ever scheduled a “play” day for your dogs? We have tried this with our dogs and we have invited their “friends” over for a play day. We decided that the best day for us to schedule this “play” day every week was on Wednesdays. We were pretty much caught up with things that needed to be done and over the “hump” – looking forward to the weekend:-) So we have our first few Wednesday play days and we discover that maybe we picked the wrong day of the week. Some of these dogs think that “Wednesday” is “hump day” and they are totally confused about the meaning of the whole day. Thinking that we have made a terrible mistake by picking “Wednesday” we decide to pick a different day. Guess what? The day that is picked doesn’t matter. Some dogs think that every day is “hump day”. So we have learned to spend more time on inviting the dogs that want to “play” and not invite the “humps”.

Dog Tunes

I love finding cool things for my furry friends. Sometimes I don’t know whether the “find” is for me or them:-) but who cares? Imagine my excitement when I stumbled upon dog tunes while cruising the web. The singers are actually really good and they put on concerts. The name of their band is Furry Murray and The Bow Wow Band and the man behind this is Murray Weinstock. His new cd is Tails of the City. To hear their song Dog About Town go to www.dogtunes.com/scoop.html

Foods that are Toxic

As responsible pets owners it is extremely important that we educate ourselves on which foods our furry friends can actually have and which foods could be life threatening for them. We should not assume that human food is always safe for pets. When it comes to chocolate, onions, garlic and macadamia nuts, such foods should be given in only small quantities, or not at all. I was surprised when I took a minute and looked at the list of foods that are toxic to our furry friends.
