Holistic Blend Dog Foods #ChewyInfluencer

This month as #ChewyInfluencers we are doing a special 30 day review!!




That's right, we are going to be reviewing Holistic Blend Dog Food!! Mama has been in search of a new food for us that we all like (even Bilbo) AND that will help with Arty's itchies!




We chose Holistic Blends Lamb and Rice flavor to enjoy!! We started mixing this in with the kibble we were currently on about a week ago and now are almost totally switched over!!




Mama loves all the natural ingredients,  vitamins and minerals AND that it is hypo-allergenic Holistic Blends contains!  

You can read more about all the nommy stuff over at Chewy.com!

Bilbo loves that is smaller, easier to chew and fits in his senior mouth better than our current foodies!





We made sure to have Mama let us try some out to make sure it had the FCDA (Four Crazy Dogs Approval). Needless to say, we are going to enjoy reviewing this product (we tasted Bilbo's by Proxy)!!




We will be back in the middle of the month to let you know how things are going!!

We were not compensated for this review. We received a bag of Holistic Blend Lamb and Rice All Life Stages Dog Food in exchange for our (and Mama's) honest opinions.


We will be climbing aboard the Chewy.com Blogger Network Blog Hop on the 3rd Tuesday of March!! Thanks Sugar and Oz for hosting!

Once Upon a Time Under the Sea


Today, we are participating in the Once Upon a Time Blog Hop
hosted by Lord Shiloh and Lady Shasta and sponsored by Oz Tours!


Now...to our Fairy Tail!

Once upon a time there was a most beautiful princess, who always longed to visit the fishies under the sea! 




One day her Fairy Godturtle granted her wish!




At first, the princess loved being under the sea.



 But soon, with no other puppies around she got lonely.....and then



the Princess realized it WAS WET under the sea....and if there was one thing she hated more than anything else, it was being WET!!! Needless to say she asked her Fairy God Turtle to please return her to dry land.



Of course, the moral of the story is 
NEVER EVER GO ANYPLACE WHERE IT IS WET!!!
Even if there are pretty fishies and stuff

THE END


hosting such a great Blogville Event!

Going Green for Greenies!!! #ChewyInfluencer

 This month Sydney, our bestest friend over at Chewy.com,  put our most favorite treat EVER on the list for a #chewyinfluencer review.  Needless to say, we told Mama we DESERVED to review Greenies because we have been putting up with all her silly photo shoots!! We pawed Sydney back and the Greenies were here lickety split!




Did I mentioned these are our MOST FAVORITE TREATS EVER???  They are so good that we agreed to yet ANOTHER silly photo shoot with Mama to help show you!




Greenies come in 4 different sizes to choose and in different styles too! We all get the Petite size, but Arty gets the Grain Free Greenies and sometimes I get the ummm..."Weight Management" kind. 
Head over to Chewy.com to find the right type of Greenies for you!!


 Greenies also are known for their ability to keep our breath fresh and toofers clean, right Dory??



 That's right, Jakey!!
Nothing is better for a good pawrent/pup relationship than a treat that is good for you and
TASTES DELICIOUS!!!




 Come on Mama, stop being so artsy fartsy and GIMME THE GREENIE!!!



Don't you know it is WRONG to tease the doggy???
(from Mama: 2 minutes later the Greenie was safe in Dory's tummy)





 Jakey is the Greenie KING of the house!!



 He knows just how to "brush his teefies" with Greenies!
Great Job, Jakey!!

We give Greenies ONE MILLION PAWS.....ok, maybe 12 paws up!!
(Bilbo doesn't eat Greenies, but he says if they come up with a Pumpkin Flavor he'll be the first to taste test them!!)



Greenies and Chewy.com, two great things that go great together!!!


As #chewyinfluencers, we received a package of Greenies in exchange for our honest opinion. We were not paid for this review and all of the opinions are either ours or our Mama's.
