Who’s your Valentine this year? (it better be the dog!)
Disclaimer: this post is brought to you by Martha Stewart Pets. All opinions are my own and I only share products I think you and your dog will love.
So I hear that this weekend is Valentine’s Day. A day to spend time with those that you love, and show them that you care.
So when I got wind that my old fling, Amira, was back in town I knew I was going to have to do something special on February 14th.
So I popped over to Petsmart to snag Amira a gift from the Martha Stewart Pets line and set out to profess my love for her.
Only Amira is a bit high maintenance…..
….and she just rolled her eyes and said “You better bring me some more toys, because one is not enough for this lady.”
Sorry Amira, no girlfriend is worth sharing all my Martha Stewart Pets toys…. you’ll just have to get your own!
Would your dog do the same? Happy Early Valentine’s Day everyone!

My daily “wardrobe” has consisted of one very important accessory for a very long time now, and that is my Blanket ID tag, which helps to keep me safe should I ever go missing. Each Blanket ID tag comes with a unique number on the back which when inputted into the Blanket ID website helps lost doggies to find their owners once again!
While I keep my tag attached to my collar during the day, I must admit that the 1″ wide collars I prefer to wear are a little less than comfortable when I’m trying to get all snuggly in my bed at night. And as much as I know it’s sort of a no-no, up until now mom and dad let me sleep in the nude every night so that I could get more cozy.
But all of that has changed since my pals at Blanket ID sent me one of their Lounge Collars and new Pods ID tags!
These soft leather lounge collars are handmade in a whole variety of colors and styles – and you can even have one made with colors of your choosing, which is what I did with this fun gray and teal wrap collar.
The lounge collars are thin and slip right over your dog’s neck, and now I don’t have to worry about being id-less at night since I have something comfortable to wear to bed.
With the lounge collar you can attach your dog’s existing tags to it, or pick up one of these fun Pods from Blanket ID!
The pods unscrew at the top so you can insert some information about your dog on their included weather-resistant paper.
The Pods come in 4 fun colors (orange, purple, silver, and dark gray), and are waterproof, lightweight, and easily updated should you ever move. They are even great for using when you are on vacation as you can update it quickly to have your vacation address on it.
So whichever method of ID you choose from Blanket ID, they have you covered in making sure your dog is always easily identified.
You can shop for your Lounge Collars HERE and your Pods HERE!
And now for the best part….
FOUR Lucky WINNERS will win a Pod from Blanket ID (one of each color will be given away)
Here’s HOW TO WIN:
For this giveaway I will be using, Rafflecopter. Winners will be chosen at random and you will be contacted via e-mail to claim your prize. Don’t worry, we never share your information! All the winners will also be announced on this blog post once the giveaway ends on 5/27/14 12AM EST. Open to readers worldwide. Winners must claim their prizes within 48 hours of being notified or prize will be forfeited. Good luck!

Valentine’s Day is almost here, so with a little help from my mom I whipped up this happy heart DIY to help you spread some love any day of the year!
DIY – Dog Collar Heart Accessory
This simple DIY can be made with a few items that you can likely find laying around your house.
What you need:
Step 1: Using a sharpie draw two small heart shapes onto your fabric. You may want to draw one on a plain piece of printer paper first and cut it out to use as a stencil.
Step 2: Cut both hearts out of your fabric.
Step 3: If you are using a plain piece of fabric then you may want to add a little Bling. By using the eraser end of your pencil you can stamp some dots of gold metallic paint onto your fabric hearts.
Step 4: Next measure the width of your dog collar, add about an inch, and cut this length out of your elastic. Once your paint is dry on your hearts you will want to sew a piece of looped elastic to the painted side with a needle and thread.
Step 5: Place your heart cutouts on top of each other (paint side up) and begin to stitch the two together using a piece of embroidery floss (or regular thread if that’s all you have). Stop stitching when you are about 3/4 of the way around.
Step 6: Stuff your heart with cotton filler (or any other stuffing you would like to use) and then stitch your heart the rest of the way shut.
Your heart collar accessory is now complete, and you can slip it onto your dog’s collar.
I don’t know about you, but I think it totally says I LOVE YOU!
If you decide not to add paint to your happy little heart, you may want to use a fun fabric instead – just like the one my mom made below.
I’m totally wearing my heart on my sleeve neck!
If you’re looking for more ways to spread a little love this year, make sure you check out my online SHOP for Valentine’s Day Greetings and more!
The collars I am wearing in this feature are from the lovely Mattie & Margot, and they have lots of great colors that would look oh so sweet with a happy little heart on them.
Also you can fetch the id tag I’m wearing above from Blanket ID.
