Fun Ways To Show Pet LOVE

Hey fur-babies,

Here is a fun article we found in the September 2011 RedBook that we wanted to share; www.redbookmag.com!

Mercedes

My name is Mercedes, I am a 4 year old female, Italian Greyhound living in Washington State. I currently have two BFF's, Fiona (a Pom), but due to our work schedules we don't get to hang out as much as we would like to and Carmen (a fellow Iggy), we take s-paw breaks together when I get time off of work.

I work for the LITTLE DOG RETREAT, an exclusive pup resort that caters to very small pups. I oversee the main operations and fiscal responsibilities.

My Favorite Activities:

-Run

-Get chased

-Catch my frisbee

-Jump over my agility pole

-Getting my human to toss Mr. Carrot (my favorite gurgle toy)

-Cuddle under blankets

I also like long walks anywhere and soft relaxing music. My favorite color is pink and I like scrambled eggs with freshly diced carrots.

Haley

I am an adventurous, fun loving, carefree girl with interests in playing out side, playing in the yard, going on long walks, playing in the water, playing with toys, eating toys, playing with sticks, eating sticks, playing with bugs, eating bugs, playing with clothing I find in the hamper, eating clothing I find in the hamper and licking my parents.

My favorite toys are my pink frisbee I took from my sister and tearing apart paper.

I promise to lick your eye balls clean once each day, remind you to brush behind your ears by poking at them and sleep on your back whenever possible.

I spend my days working at the LITTLE DOG RETREAT, where I am the Creative Director for furry festivals, seasonal paw-ty's and community paw-vents. I like this career because it gives me the opportunity to lick everyone I meet and sniff out new places to play.

Bridget

I suppose I should tell you a little about my personal interests. I am a self-motivated, multi-tasking, detail oriented pup who enjoys long naps and warm heaters. I am newly employed and a shareholder thereof the LITTLE DOG RETREAT as their Director of Canine Relations, which really means I take care of all of the paperwork, misc. office duties, in-flow and out-flow of daily work as well as exit interviews. I enjoy a good Zukes bone now and again, but I really just want a clean bowl of water, each and every time I choose to drink from the bowl. Occasionally, I prefer a glass or a ceramic mug of water and I also enjoy nibbling bits of scrambled egg.

Above all else, what I am looking for in a BFF is loyalty. I want to know that when my butt needs rubbing you'll be there to help out. Or if my tail is looking a little low one day, you'll be there to nudge it back up so it wags again. I have a great sense of humor; I am always looking for a good toy to play with, but I have a favorite piece of old fabric that used to be a stuffed animal, that my mommy washes sometimes, which I hate because then I have to re-establish all of the good scents I've collected. I enjoy being held and rubbing my face all over really soft fabric. I also like to read the paper and when I get tired I like to sleep on the paper.
