Hi guys!! It’s Dakota’s Mom and I wanted to show you the enthusiastic “welcome home” that I received from
Dakota when I returned home from the BlogPaws conference this past Sunday.
Dakota has a tradition of grabbing his red, white and blue ball when Lenny and I return home from anywhere! Whether we are gone 5 minutes, 5 hours or days, Dakota grabs that ball and I have to sing “Hooray for the red, white and blue!!”
I kept the camera running, in an attempt to capture Dakota’s jubilation to have me back home. I wanted this to be real, raw and unedited! It sure is! I apologize for the poor video quality and my saying “Mama’s Home” a ridiculous number of times. Please realize that I was pretty darned excited to see Dakota (and Cody) too!
Mom and I think that Sheila captured my eyes beautifully. So beautifully that Mom has bought this painting and cannot wait for it to arrive!
Some of you might be familiar with the art of Sheila Wedegis, but for those who aren’t, this painting is part of a 30 day challenge that artist Sheila Wedegis is taking part in called
All of the blogging doggies LOVE his way with words and his limericks and we always tell him so! Because we love them so much, Oz gave us all the chance to be “limericked!!”yeah I made that word up!! Guess what? I decided to “bite” and have him do one for me. Wait til you read mine! Oh my DOG did my Mom and I bark out loud about THIS ONE!!
There once was a Sheepdog in the Hills
who swore he was a dog of no frills.
I tell you it’s true,
ask “what do gentlemen do?”
and then watch as he sits real stills.
This video was the inspiration for the above limerick:
Thanks Oz!!
That was great!!
Barks and licks and love, Dakota

Hi everyone it’s Dakota! I can’t begin to tell you how excited I was when my furiends at KONG® “one of the most trusted and capablenames in the Pet Industry” , contacted me and asked if I would like to sample some of the treats from their NEW Premium Treat line!
I was particularly excited to receive the above two items because I needed my jerky fix! Mom and I have read about all the recalls of jerky items made in China and we needed jerky that was made in the good ‘ol U.S.A . that would be safe for me and you!
Each product in the Premium line was developed with specific attention to common pet needs including Oral Care, Skin & Coat maintenance and Allergy Concerns. KONG® Treats are Vitamin Enriched and contain extra anti-oxidants to help improve overall health.
KONG’S Natural Jerky Beef Strips and Natural Jerky Chicken Strips are part of the KONG Premium Treat line.
They are SUPER great tasting too!! They are also a treat that my Mom can feel GOOD about giving me!
They are fabulous for treat time, training, rewarding and even for stuffing KONG® toys!!
At last! It was finally my chance to try them! The treats that are featured in this video are the KONG Natural Jerky Beef, (the Natural Jerky Chicken is also delicious and SAFE for you to enjoy as well!)
