I loved her in Ally McBeal,  Charlie’s Angels and Elementary. Now, I love her even more, as Lucy Liu announces her new company, Le Roar, making very stylish, ideal pet accessories for dog parents. She and Elementary Costume Designer, Ellen Stockbridge,  have partnered to create safe, non-toxic goods for pets!   Lucy Liu and Ellen Stockbridge photo: leroar.com   Both Liu and Stockbridge had trouble finding products with totally safe materials on the market for their dogs. They got to talking and realized they had something to offer. “The mission of Le Roar is to… [Continue Reading]

  I was thinking of ways I could be different this week with the 52 Snapshots of Life Photo Challenge theme of Favorite, but the truth is, these two munchkins are my favorite beings on the planet! Can’t deny it; wouldn’t want to. So, it’s as natural as breathing for me to choose these two as my super duper favorite. I took this when we were out on a late afternoon walk the other day, and the neighborhood just presented us with so many photo opportunities. The dogs were game (Sophie wasn’t purposefully looking away each time I tried to… [Continue Reading]

  Nature is a part of our everyday lives, now, since moving to Fort Lauderdale. The gorgeous flowers, fields and unusual trees we encounter on our daily walks were perfect for this weeks’ 52 Snapshots of Life Photo Challenge theme – Nature! This was taken just this morning on our walk. Jasper is a happy boy, loving being outside with space, no noise, few cars and even fewer people. We did meet up with a couple of dog furiends, tho’. That’s always fun. Pet blogging friend and colleague, Christina Berry of The Lazy Pitbull, created this fun challenge. You don’t… [Continue Reading]

  This is one of my favorite shots of Sophie. So, I was excited to see that this week’s 52 Snapshots of Life photo challenge theme is Snuggly, because this definitely fits the bill! I took this shot in 2013 when her daddy and I were hanging out watching tv in our house in Florida. Sophie was especially cuddly that night, and when she struck this pose, I just had to capture it. I posted it for Throwback Thursday on Instagram yesterday, and called it an out take from her Playboy Dog magazine cover shoot. It’s just such a fetching… [Continue Reading]

This week’s theme of Water for 52 Snapshots of Life photo challenge is an easy one for us. Sophie and Jasper spend a lot of time in the pool. It’s their favorite time of day.  Sophie LOVES  jumping in the water; she’s a natural swimmer.  And, Jasper has come a long way in getting more comfortable in the water and participating in their squid chase game. We love it because it’s so much fun to see how excited they get. For this week, I’ve included a video I shot, because it’s so much better at showing them in play mode. Jasper’s attention is elsewhere, but… [Continue Reading]

Affiliate Links     Is training a major part of your life? To me, a well-behaved dog is an extension of our style. How? Confidence and calm are stylish; and sexy. In our house, we not feeling stylish and sexy everyday, that’s for sure! LOL But, we are always using opportunities to train, something expert dog guru, Justin Silver, taught me. It works, too. Jasper is much better behaved and Sophie is getting better at not barking at certain dogs outside, thereby setting her brother off. We have definite tools we use on a regular basis; products… [Continue Reading]

What says summer like hanging at the beach. And, while I’m not a beach person myself, I know at least one little munchkin who loved it from the get go. For this week’s 52 Snapshots of Life photo challenge, the theme is Summer. I came across this picture I took a while back. It was Sophie’s first time at the beach – first time! Can you tell how much she loved it? I don’t know if other people’s dogs do this, but both Sophie and Jasper dig their noses into the sand and try to bury their faces in it,… [Continue Reading]

Had some fun shooting this one today for 52 Snapshots of Life photo challenge. Try taking a photo of Jasper and it’s nearly impossible. Why? The little terrier terror can’t keep still! It took a fistful of treats and some begging, and Sophie still photobombed it. LOL  I did my own take on traditional “red” for red, white & blue. It’s more a raspberry to match the flowers. But hey, I like it! 🙂 And, I managed to catch Jas in a split second of smiling and looking at me, simultaneously. I’m good with that. Pet blogging friend and colleague,… [Continue Reading]
