On Friday I got to leave work early on account of the snow that made it’s way to Pennsylvania.
Of course a little bit of snow never stops me from having an adventure, so I bundled up in my jackets and decided to have some fun on the farm. Did you know that ponies like to have snowdays too?
Snowdays are so much fun, but there is really only one thing that makes them oh so amazing….
…coming inside to a warm blanket and a bowl of kibble!

As you probably know, I’ve been taking weekly agility training classes since last spring. I’ve come pretty far in my training, but I still have lots to learn until I’m ready to compete.
Last week I had a visitor at class…..which means I have video proof that I’m an agility dog! Yay!
This week I decided that the teeter totter was a bit scary – I mean do you really blame me, that thing catapults you into the sky! But mom helped me get through my fears, and hopefully I’ll be back to darting across it at super hero speed just like I had been doing for the past several months.
Anyone else taking dog agility classes? What’s your favorite obstacle? Mine is the A-frame!
It’s been a while since I’ve gotten to play with my neighbor Harley. So over the weekend I popped over to her house and we had a little fun chasing her Dad’s RC Car in the backyard.
Ok well mostly I watched Harley chase the car while I bossed her around (she really has no idea she is a Rottweiler). But it was a blast!
Check out more of my adventures with Harley HERE.
Disclaimer: This review is brought to you by Glowdoggie.
My pals over at Glowdoggie (Hi Leila and Harriet!) recently sent me a new lightsaber led glow collar to take for a whirl.
I’m no stranger to the super awesome LED collars that Glowdoggie sells, in fact I currently own the red, blue, and green mini collars. So I was really excited to test out their new Yellow Mini Collar.
I use my Glowdoggie collars ALL THE TIME, especially on the farm. I also wear one every time I go out in my backyard at night or for a walk in the evening.
Mom says they keep me safe and make it easier for her to know exactly where I am. I admit I like to wander a bit when I’m at the farm.
These collars are super bright (the photos don’t do it justice) and I’m so glad to have a product that makes it so mom feels safe enough to let me explore the farm on my own in the dark.
Here are some great features about this product:
I can’t say enough good things about Glowdoggie, it really is one of those products I just can’t live without!
You can fetch your own Glowdoggie Collar HERE. And make sure you check out my other posts about Glowdoggie HERE.
Disclosure: I received a glowdoggie collar in exchange for a review, but all opinions are my own!
Just in time for Valentine’s Day I’ve designed some brand-new notepads that are now available in my Etsy Shop, FlyingHero.
Ok fine, mom helped a bit.
Each notepad design comes with a Dachshund pen for all your super adorable writing needs.
I can’t help but ooooh and ahhhh over their cuteness.
My notepad sets are $12 each and would make the perfect gift for your Valentine this year! Or you could always just keep it for yourself!
You can fetch my new notepads and pens HERE.
Keeping an active and healthy lifestyle is something that is very important to me. I like to keep my sleek looking hot dog shape trim and fit, and I like to make sure that the things I am ingesting (aside from the occasional pony poop on the farm) are not only great tasting, but good for me too.
When I came across the Pet Naturals of Vermont healthy product line I knew it was something I might have to take for a whirl.

This is totally going to be the name of my children’s book someday, “Farmyard Fun with a Dog in the Fog”. It sounds like something straight out of a Dr. Suess book.
And truth be told, I always have a lot of farmyard fun in the fog!
The damp blanket of foggy goodness seems to bring out all of my friends to play.
I’m always the first to grab a stick and entice my friends to join in the fun.
Catch me if you can ponies!
Before I could turn around to see who was joining me in this fun game of chase I was in the middle of nowhere, and the fog had covered me in it’s blanket!
I thought I might be lost.
Cricket got worried when she could no longer see my yellow coat in the pasture.
And Blitz began nickering for me so I could find my way back to my friends.
I’M COMING PONIES!
Phew! That was a close one!
Last weekend I took my very first trip to PetValu. Have you ever been to a PetValu? If not, you are in for a treat.
Upon entering I could immediately tell that this place was just a little bit different from the big box pet stores like Petsmart and Petco.
This store was filled with fun items that I hadn’t seen at the pet stores I usually frequent.
I was immediately drawn to the display of Jonathan Adler merchandise – I loved his fun colorful patterns.
Mom was so close to bringing home this new leash for me (probably for the packaging alone) but Dad thought it was a bit too colorful for a boy (I can rock pink better than any girl!).
I had a blast wandering around the store sniffing out all the goodies. Many of their products were healthy and all natural, and they had a much wider selection of the “good for you” treats than most of the pet shops I’ve been in.
Oh and they had cats, lots and lots of cats! Mom heard they were rescue cats that are up for adoption, and I had fun playing “find the kitty” all over the store.
Can you find the Kitty?
Not only did PetValu have cats scattered all over the shop, but they also had a shop bunny that was dog friendly. I REALLY wanted to see how friendly he was, but Mom wouldn’t let me get too close, probably because of my bunny killing record in the backyard.
My trip to Petvalu had me coming home with two fun products. A Nylabone Durachew (which I love) and a bag of Get Naked Antioxidant Dental Chew Treats.
I had a great time at PetValu, and I’m sure I will be visiting again real soon.
Most of the PetValu stores are located in Canada and along the East Coast of the US, but you can click here to find one nearest to you.
I was not paid or perked to write about PetValu, I just thought everyone would enjoy taking a trip inside the pet store with me!
Every week I attend a dog agility class with mom at the Dog Training Center of Chester County. After several months of classes now I’m really starting to get the hang of things.
Waiting for my turn on the course is one of the hardest things about going to class, it’s just too much fun!
I’m currently working really hard on learning the weave poles, it’s like this crazy mind puzzle that I’m trying to figure out. Any day now I’ll crack it!
Recently I logged some time practicing the chute. I’m a big fan of the chute as you can see….it’s almost like I’m underground burrowing for groundhogs. Total agility heaven for us doxies.
So any of my fans also dog agility stars? Any favorite obstacles?
