Beautiful read about the grieving process, though I do recommend a box of tissues.

Wonderful resource for pet owners looking for options when it comes to paying vet bills.

Thank you so much for the mention of Dog Wagging Care. We really, really love dogs and have a passion for their health and happiness. It is great to connect to other pet lovers. Your site is awesome and is a wealth of puppy ideas. I connected on FB and will keep in touch. Keep up the good work. Happy Tails……..
Of course, and thank you so much for writing such great articles. Very happy to have stumbled upon your site 🙂
Your weekly round up just makes me even more sad that I don’t have unlimited internet on the boat. I feel like I’m missing out on so much.
But I did manage to catch the post on Tenacious Little Terrier and it was excellent! I guess I need to write my own about living with a dog in a space the size of an apartment bedroom. 🙂
Yes you absolutely should write that, I know it would be great. I think far too often we emphasize how important a ‘big yard’ is for dogs rather than the actual interactions they get every day. (in my neighborhood there’s plenty of dogs who are left alone in their big yards every day, and I know Laika wouldn’t be very happy with that arrangement)
Great roundup, I look forward to diving into several of these articles! Thanks.
Love & Biscuits,
Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them
I just read the drone post – what a ridiculous idea!! Thanks for sharing it though. It’s interesting to see/read what big companies come up with. Now on to the other posts 🙂
