Laurel Holiday Parade

in line for the parade

On Saturday, December 1, 2018, mama and I volunteered to do the Laurel Holiday Parade in the cold and rainy weather, representing Pet's on Wheels as therapy dogs. It was our first time working a parade and we had a pawsome time. I met a new friend from the volunteer group, his name is Swiffer with his owner Sarah. We lined up behind the cheer leaders. There were about 6 groups of us walking the parade and there were people lined up during the route to wave at us. The police officers were really nice, stopping traffic for us to walk down the road. We walked from the Municipal Center to the Armory, I believe it was about a little over a mile walk. Great exercise for all of us!

When we got to the Armory. They have activities for the kids and the food truck was serving free hot chocolate and hot apply cider. Swiffer and his owner Sarah were great to walk with, we got to know them pretty well. Swiffer really liked to sniff and mark pretty much anything that was an inanimate standing object. LOL.

When I got home, I was pretty wet from the rain and had a lovely nap. =)

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.

Neutering Stitch

Stitch had his pre-operative consultation on Thursday September 6th, 2018. They took his blood and the results turned out normal. Although during his checkup they found out that he has a hot spot on this neck. So that meant a couple of days without his collar and some spray antibiotics to help the hot spot heal. He was scheduled today for his operation. Drop off was between 8:00 - 9:00am, no food the night before starting at 8:00pm on Wednesday. Only thing he was allowed to have was water. Stitch was so happy going to the vet and thinking it was another day for a checkup. Ohh was he in for a surprise that morning... I got a call in the early afternoon, telling me his procedure went well and that he was going to be observed for the next couple of hours and that we needed to pick him up between 4:00 - 6:00 pm. Hubby went to pick him up after work. He wasn't the happy little boy he was that morning, still a little groggy and has to take some pills for his recovery. Also, he had to...
