Kelly and Ike Demonstrate How to Get the Best Dog Food

Image
We love delicious dog food, and we get served up some pretty tasty tidbits! How do we manage this? Step 1: First, get Mom to order from Chewy.com. When it arrives (and it's so fast! It only takes about two days to get to our doorstep!), be sure to investigate the delivery. (Yup! Looks good.) Step 2: Mom ordered Whole Earth Farms Chicken and Turkey canned food.

She, along with her hubby and their sweet golden retriever Honey, are living aboard The Meander, living life on the seas. It's fun to hear how a dog handles daily life on a sailboat. I recently learned of another dog who sailed around the world with her family. Hubble and Hattie , publishers of great dog books (and the same publishers who put out my Dieting with my Dog !) sent me a copy of the book to review and one to give away! Tara, the Terrier who sailed around the world by Rosemary and Robert Forrester, is a well-told and heartfelt tale of travel and love. From the publisher: “ Tara , the terrier who sailed around the world” is the exciting and touching story of a Jack Russell who had at least nine lives – and ma
