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. 

The Dog Walker Company Harness

Mama got me this new harness for our walks. It's so comfy and is not complicated to put on, like some harnesses. I just need to be calm when it is being placed on me when we go walking. The dog harness was bought from TJ Max in size small, since I am a tiny little girl. It's normally $12 online but we got it for $6.99. It is considered to be 'cute and in control'. Description : Durable Material Reflector Accents Easy-Clean Fabric Breathable Mesh Fabric Dual Steel Loop Attachments  The harness has Velcro to wrap around my body and also a snap to secure it in place. I like that there is two loop attachments to hold onto my leash when I walk. When my humans tug on me, it doesn't hurt.

Greenbelt Pet Expo

Jade attended the  Greenbelt Pet Expo on Saturday June 1, 2019. It was her first outing since her surgeries. The expo was not too big, about a block, which had a good amount of friendly vendors. She met a few new people and dogs in the area. Most of the vendors were selling dog related products and the SPCA was there providing vaccinations for a small fee. I obviously had to get my puppy girl some treats. I even got to play in the Greenbelt dog park before heading home. It was an enjoyable day~! Please enjoy the photo's we took at the event. =)
