If you're a pet owner, specifically a dog owner, you know that our dgs are part of the family...our fur babies, and we will do anything it takes to keep our fur babies helathy and happy. We take care of our dogs as if they were like our own child, because in a way...they are.
When it comes to my older dog, Benji, I do worry about him aging and developing issues that comes with getting older. We've already had to have a couple of his teeth extracted due to some being loose and possibly early signs of tooth decay. I couldn't take that he was having a hard time eating due to the loose teeth, so I knew I had to do something about it.
Something that we may NOT think about is hip joint health. As our dogs get older, they may develop stiff joints and less mobility due to the joints. I know that we all give our dogs treats (I give mine one every day) and nothing makes me feel a little better about giving my beloved ones a treat, than a treat packed with nutrients to support healthy hip joints.
Happy Hips by Nutrisca has these chewy grilled strips that geared towards helathy hip joints. They are high in protein, low in fat and contain no soy, wheat, corn or sugar. They DO contain Glucosamine & Chondroitin for healthy hip joints. Nutrisca uses 100% real duck, raised without antibodies or hormones.
AS soon as I tore open the bag of these grilled treats, both my dogs came running for them. You can smell the smoked aroma as soon as you open the bag. These treats are available at Target, online or in store.

How are all my doggy parents doing during this pandemic? If you've been keeping up with my blog posts (and I truly love each and every one of you who do) you know I recently posted about Buddy Biscuit Chewy Jerky Treats a couple weeks ago. These jerky treats were my dogs favorites and they absolutely devoured them!
Now, I am here to talk about Buddy Biscuits...the actual dog biscuit that are made with natural ingredients such as grilled beef, sharp cheddar and roasted chicken. All these flavors come in one box...the Assorted Flavor pack. I will tell you right now, I was very skeptical about these dog biscuits, as my dogs have never liked any of the hard biscuit type treats. They always preferred the chewy and meaty type treats.
Low and behold, I was totally surprised when they actually ate Buddy Biscuit dog treats! Yes, of course they sniffed for a few seconds, unsure, but once they tasted the Buddy Biscuits, they instantly guarded their treats from one another. I don't know if it was the natural flavors of the chicken, beef and cheddar, but they wasted no time in chewing them up.
These Buddy Biscuits contain no soy or corn. They are free from any unnecessary fillers and additives, contain no artificial flavors or colors and are easy on your fur babies digestive system. These cute and fun shaped biscuits are the shape of a gingerbread kid... not man, but kid, making these treats fun to give to your pups.
I'm sure my dogs could care less about the little gingerbread kid shapes, but they sure do love the taste of them! These Buddy Biscuits are also available in Grain Free varieties for those pups who can't tolerate grain. These biscuits are available at Target and can also be purchased online, here: https://www.target.com/p/buddy-biscuits-crunchy-assorted-flavors-biscuit-16oz/-/A-78370601
Recently, like two weeks ago, I started on a low carb diet. I don't want to think of it as a DIET, but more as eating the right types of low carb food. I am following the Atkins 20 Diet, and on this diet, you are limited to 18-22 carbs per day for the first two weeks. That doesn't seem like a lot of carbs, but you would be surprised the variety of foods you can eat, that are low carb.
Most of you know, that breads, wheat, pasta and potatoes are off limits the first two weeks. Atkins requires you stay in Phase I until you are 15lbs from your goal weight. Although I am 15lbs or less from my goal, I plan on staying on Phase I another week. With that being said, I've already lost 4lbs within that first two weeks, and I have not been hungry at all. The one thing I miss most, is having something sweet, whether it's fruit or something chocolate.
That is why I was thrilled to have the opportunity to receive and try the Atkins Endulge Pecan Caramel Clusters, thanks to Nick, from Bazinga Worldwide on Amazon. He was generous enough to send me a box, that contains 5 packages of the Atkins Endulge Pecan Caramel Clusters. Each Package contains 2 cookies, that only have 120 calories per package and 2 Net Carbs! 2 NET CARBS! That's what I'm talking about. I can now have my little treat without feeling guilty!
These Atkins Endulge Pecan Caramel Clusters taste awesome! They are not as thick as the Girl Scout Pecan Clusters, nor as the store bought ones, but they are just enough to satisfy my sweet tooth. They are sweet, but not too sweet and very caramely...if that's even a word.
If you can't find the Atkins Endulge Pecan Caramel Clusters at your local Walmart or local grocery store, I would recommend you ordering yours today, from Bazinga Worldwide on Amazon.

I just recently started seeing these cute little popsicle molds, and have thought about, vaguely, about getting some. Well, thanks to Fliland and Tomoson.com, I was chosen to receive and review this awesome product.
The Popsicle molds come with 6 individual molds. They have their own stand and popsicle sticks and are easy to use. You just fill up your molds, approximately 3/4 way and insert the popsicle stick top. It's that simple. I just wish I had a recipe book to come with this set, but hey...I always have Pinterest to give me ideas...AND BOY! Did I get many many ideas for different popsicle recipes!
I have already used these popsicle molds last night, and let me tell ya...I can't wait to make more popsicles! I just wish I had an extra set of these! All I want to do is experiment!!! These are so easy to use and when you put them in the freezer, it takes about 4 to 5 hours for them to freeze, depending on what you've put in them.
What's cool about these popsicle molds is the drip-free handle. When you are eating your popsicle, the handle will catch your treat, if melting. The molds are BPA free plastic, Dishwasher safe and are a fun way to get your kiddos involved in making their own popsicles! You may just have a little trouble getting your kids to stop making and eating their own popsicles!
If you want to purchase your own set of popsicle molds from Fliland, all you have to do is visit their Amazon page. Trust me, your kids will happy you did! They are on sale, right now for $11.99.

If you have dogs, then you know how dear and special they are to you. They are like part of the family and sometimes can be like kids. I have three dogs, a Pug, Dorkie and a mix between a Dorky and Terrier. The last one is such a big baby and never listens! But then again, he is only two years old!
Every one of my dogs LOVES getting treats, no matter what kind they are. Now, I have bought some treats that my dogs just weren't crazy about, but when I had the opportunity to review the Best For My Pets Bully Sticks, I knew my dogs were going to go crazy over them...at least I hoped they would.
These bully sticks are pretty good in size and are so tough, that it will take your dog a pretty good while to chew it up. They are safe for your dogs and will (or should) keep your dog busy for awhile. The Best For My Pets Bully Sticks come in a package that contains 8oz. These bully sticks are a good way of maintaining oral and hygiene care for your dog. These bully sticks are free from chemicals, preservatives and additives and are made of 100% beef.
Best For My Pets Bully Sticks come with a 100% Money Back Guarantee if you, or your dog, are not completely happy. You have nothing to lose with this kind of guarantee. You can make your dog or pup happy by purchasing them their Bully Sticks here.
I will say, these mighty bully sticks kept my dogs busy for a good 20 minutes. They LOVED them, just as I hoped they would.
