Custom Pet Weather Report
Have you checked out Weather.com's custom pet weather report feature? You enter some basic information about your pet (type, size, weight, etc.) and enter your location and they give you a weather report for your pet. For my dog it gave best times of the day for a walk, a comfort index, mosquito activity levels, etc. There's also an hourly breakdown. Check it out: Weather.com Custom Pet Weather Report PetSmart PetPerks Sale - the place for up to 25% off

Friday, July 31, 2009Snuggies for DogsYes, you read that right, the fine people who brought us the Snuggie are now bringing us Snuggie for Dogs. No more will your pooch have to wrestle you for your Snuggie. Come on, admit it, you have one for yourself. And you're tempted to get one for the pup! ;-) So cute! [Update: In the commercial they show the Snuggie for Dogs on what looks to me like a Retriever, but on the site the 'large' size is listed as 16-20 inches long and for weights between 17-27lbs. Those measurements would fit my cockapoo, but I can't see it working for anything larger. ]

My pupster *loves* splashing around in her kiddie, err, puppy pool, but only when the hose is running. I'll have to dig up a video to share - it's a hoot! But in the meantime, enjoy this sweet bulldog who is clearly torn between enjoying is wonderful new pool and showering thank yous on his person for giving it to him. Prepare to Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!

Pets & Babies - The Valley Hospital Parent Education Classes
Expecting a new baby? Don't forget about your loving and loyal four-legged first baby, your cat or dog. There WILL be adjustments to make. The one-session Pets & Babies class, held in Paramus, NJ, teaches expectant parents tried and true methods to a happy home for all family members. Time after time, parents are heartbroken when their long-time pet is not as thrilled to see that squirming bundle of joy as everyone else is. With a little preparation and training, tails will be wagging when your new addition comes home. Next session is May 19, from 7:30 - 9:30PM. Call 201-291-6151 to register or for more information.

What a great idea! The booties protect the dog's feet from things like broken glass. Plus, isn't nice to see police dogs treated well?
