Lay Down Command




Mom taught me to do the 'lay down', on command. She used bacon as a way to teach me. It took me several attempts to understand what she wanted me to do. Most of the time I was sitting and not laying down when she used the hand gesture, with her palm flat and kinda towards the ground. She  would also use the words 'lay down' for the command. I eventually got it and the bacon treat was delicious~! We did this for several minutes this morning. 

Mama is so proud of me that I was smart enough to figure it out in just a few attempts. However, I am still a work in progress. I love that she's teaching me new tricks. Although most of the time I try to be sneaky and try to get the treat out of her hand when she's not paying attention. 😜

Hope you all are having a bark-tastic week!

Oatmeal, Peanut Butter, Coconut Oil and Banana Dog Treats

Before the year ended I finished all the dog treats mama had made for me a couple of weeks ago. So she tried a new recipe but added a few things. Mama ran out of the baby oatmeal from the last batch. So she used regular Quaker oats and used the food processor to grind it finely. Anyways, we hope you enjoy making these treats as much as we did.  Ingredients:  1 1/4 cup Oatmeal 1/4 cup peanut butter 3 tablespoon Coconut Oil 1 medium banana Directions:  Grind up oatmeal. Place in large bowl, mix in banana, coconut oil, and peanut butter.  Create small balls and and then flatten them with a spoon Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Bake for 15-20 minutes. When done, leave in oven to cool. This makes the treats firm up.

Loyal Companion Grand Opening

Mama went to the grand opening of Loyal Companion this weekend in Rockville, Md. She picked up a free goodie bag with new treats and bought us some small toys. I already chewed up and tore up my blue birdy. Sister got the unicorn and we have the sock monkey left to play with. I can't wait for mama to open up the new treats for us to munch on~!

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas everyone! I had a great Christmas with my family. I guess I was a good girl this year and Santa Paws sent me a crinkle dinosaur for my gift this year. I haven't been able to tear him apart like those other fluffy stuff animals that I usually get at the pet stores. However, he is awesome to chew on. Also, Mama and the family brought me a new bed for the holiday season. It's so warm and comfy. I've been sleeping on it everyday when I'm done running around the house playing with the kiddos. This has been a great Christmas and year for me. I've learned so much and met some awesome fur friends. Looking forward to the prospects of the new year!
