I have a best friend, and his name is Trooper.
He’s silly and fun, and always knows how to have a good time. Plus he’s so much fun to wrestle with!
He’s great at keeping secrets, even if I’m not so great at keeping them.
We’re different, but the same, and I couldn’t be happier to have a best friend to grow old with.
P.S. Thanks to Mattie & Margot for sending along some matching best friend collars for me and my pal Trooper! Because best friends should always look stylish together!

Lately I had been noticing that my super hero gear was looking a bit shabby – mainly my stunt helmet and trick box.
So when I was contacted by Nipomo Imprints, who specialize in vinyl decals for vehicles, signs, laptops and home décor, I thought this might be just the thing to spruce up my super hero look.
So I sent Nipomo some of my logo designs, and they turned them into various sized decals and window clings. How fabulous!
Since Nipomo sent so many fabulous shapes and sizes of my logo, I now need your help! See I can’t decide where to put them!
Should I…
And while you’re contemplating where I should adorn my new Nipomo decals, check out how you can win some decals of your own!

Modern and stylishly designed pet items is the name of the game for Go! Pet Design. While studying industrial design at Brooklyn’s Pratt Institute, Peter Pracilio found himself making his first dog crate for his rescued miniature pincher who needed his own digs. He furthered his love of design and pets by creating Go! Pet Design, which sells a variety of pet items, here are a few of my favorites:

When I came across this DIY project on pinterest, it inspired me to create something similar for all the dog (and dachshund) lovers out there! So I enlisted the help of my mom and whipped up this fun DIY project…

This project can be made using any dog shape (not just a dachshund), so have fun, be creative, and create something unique!
Materials:

Step 1: Adhere your cork onto a piece of cardboard using glue or a spray adhesive to make it a bit sturdier.
Step 2: If you would like to make a dachshund cork board download and print my dachshund shape, then cut it out. Otherwise you can print out a photo of your own dog (making sure to enlarge it) and cut out around the shape.
Step 3: Using a sharpie trace around your stencil on your cork board.
Step 4: Cut out your cork board shape using an exacto knife.
Step 5: Place your frog tape in a striped pattern along the cork.
Step 6: Paint onto the cork between your tape with acrylic paint, when it’s dry peel away the tape.
Step 7: Cut a strip of ribbon to be used as a collar and staple or glue it to the cork on the back.
Now you’re ready to hang your cork board up and enjoy!
I’ve now got the perfect place to pin photos of all my girlfriends!
I was browsing through Pottery Barn the other day and came across some fun products for dogs. Well I guess some are for dogs and others just remind our humans that dogs make for great decor! Check them out!

So you may have noticed that my post was a little later than normal today. I blame it on my mom. Because while I’m laying around the shop looking like this today, she’s too busy with work to help me on the computer! I guess I could help, but it’s so hard to when all I want to do is lay like this!
So to help with your inevitable afternoon boredom (which I’m sure you have by now), I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite things from my shop so you can go shopping! Because the must have cure for being bored – is online shopping!
You can check out all these fun products and MORE in my ETSY SHOP! Happy Thursday, and you are welcome for curing that afternoon boredom!
This is Minnow, one of the most talented artists you’ll ever meet, and he’s my bestest pony friend.
Painting is one of Minnow’s favorite things to do, can’t you tell by that big smile on his face?
When Minnow gets ready to paint I’m never far from his side, because every great artist needs an assistant.
Trooper likes to help too sometimes, but he doesn’t always have the focus to be a great painting assistant.
I on the other hand might as well have paint flowing through my veins, and the messier the job the better!
I did a pretty good job helping Minnow make a mess now didn’t I?
Check out more of the famous paintings by Minnow and his pals at www.PaintingPony.com – also make sure you follow them on Facebook!
Today I’m holding my flag high and celebrating the day of freedom for my home country, the good old US of A!
I’m proud to live in a country that gives me the freedom to be my greatest dog-gone self!
So Happy Fourth of July everyone! Enjoy your backyard cookouts, parades, and fireworks and remember to celebrate being free!
Every once in a rare while I get to spend the day at home just relaxing.
Dog stereotypes would state that I should relish in the fact that I get to nap all day long, but for me that’s just way too boring.
How can you relax when there are adventures to be had; there’s groundhogs to hunt, agility courses to run, people to wag your tail at, and cookies to eat!
Although thinking about all those adventures is making me a little sleepy.
Yawn! I guess those adventures will still be there tomorrow…
I think I’ll just rest my eyes a bit. Don’t worry though, because adventure always awaits just around the corner!
