Welcome back to the Pet Blogger Showcase! Hopefully, you’ve all had wonderful holidays and are well rested, and ready to take on 2017! You may remember, our last Pet Blogger Showcase was waaaaaay back in December, December 3rd to be exact. So reaching way back into my memory, here are the posts I loved from that Showcase.

Special Delivery by Beth at Travels With Barley – Beth had been thinking about adding another dog to her home for a while. So when a litter of puppies showed up at her local shelter, she headed on down. But things didn’t turn out exactly how she anticipated. I’m not going to spoil the story, I’ll let you read it for yourself.

Sniffles by Maggie at Shelter Cats – Sniffles the cat. Who can resist a name like Sniffles? Not to mention, he’s up for adoption. I love how Maggie shares the cats at her local rescue. It’s also cool, that she’s right in Norwalk, CT, not too far from me!

A Sassy Sunday Selfie by Animal Shelter Volunteer Life – Poor little Sassy had a rough start to life, but a little bit of loving care, and now she’s recovering and looking for her forever home. If you know someone looking for a furever friend, send them Sassy’s way. Welcome to the Pet Blogger Showcase!

Welcome and thank you for joining me for this week’s Pet Blogger Showcase. I hope you enjoy the posts I chose as much as I did.

Proper Puppy Enrichment is Important – Madison’s First Two Weeks by Emma Dog at my GBGV Life – Exposing puppies to as many experiences as possible is so crucial in their development. The crew at My GBGV life is really having fun with Madison. Siriusly, I could watch her chasing Bailie through the tunnel all day long. And besides which…PUPPY!

 

A Well Socialized Puppy is a Happy Puppy by Kathleen at All Things Collie – One of the things I’ve learned from the blogging world, is how a responsible breeder raises puppies. I truly believe if all dogs were socialized from such a young age, there would be very few dogs in shelters. And also. Puppies!!

Living With a Dog’s Luxating Patella by Jan at Wag ‘N Woof Pets – Luke was diagnosed with a Luxating Patella at a very young age. Jan and her husband decided to treat it conservatively, which is also how we treated Sampson’s partial cruciate tear. As it turns out, the conservative treatment for the luxating patella, is almost identical to the conservative management of a cruciate tear. Not surprising at all, I guess, considering they are both knee injuries.

Honorable Mention:

Tramper’s Sunday Selfie by Animal Shelter Volunteer Life – How sweet is this guy? I love how she uses the Sunday showcase, to share a different shelter cat every week.

So those are my picks, did you have a favorite that I missed?

Welcome and thanks for joining me for this week’s Pet Blogger showcase.

I have to admit something…these five week months are throwing me off! Every other week is easier to remember. 🙂

But I remembered!! So here we go, my ‘showcased’ posts from the last linky party!

Barley is the New Poetry (Part 2) by Beth at Travels With Barley – I love the fun and creativity of “spine poetry.” I can see how this exercise might be a good way to break up boredom, or say…writer’s block. Yeah. Check it out.

Pet Obesity: Costly to Pets and Pet Parents by Dolly the Doxie – Obesity is an epidemic in this country and it isn’t just humans either.  Obesity in pets is reaching an epidemic proportion 58% of cats and 54% of dogs in this country are considered obese. If your pet or a pet you know if overweight, check out Dolly’s tips for shedding that extra weight.

How to DIY Leather Dog Sofa by Robin T at ReDo It Yourself Inspirations – This post just blew my mind. When their new rescue dog, Danny, was looking for a bed of his own, Robin didn’t just buy him a bed. She didn’t repurpose a bed. She BUILT him one! I’ve heard of DIY posts, but this one, holy shit.  I can’t even.

So how’d I do? What were your favorites from the last linky party?
