A spoiled rotten dog

Along with clothes, we love to buy Sookie toys as well- and lots of them! I can't even put a number to how many she currently has. The teddy bear that she is cuddling with is one of the Christmas toys we recently brought for her (of course, we couldn't actually wait till Christmas to give it to her!).



This, ladies and gents, is the face of one very spoiled pup!

Another new sweater

Yesterday we brought Sookie a brand new winter sweater at Big Lots. Unlike some of the others that we purchased for her, this one fit her perfectly and it only cost $8! With all her jackets, sweaters, and blankies, we definitely won't have to worry about her being cold this upcoming winter!

A very yummy prize- Hill's Science Diet Grain-Free Cat Food


I won a Hill's Science Diet Grain-Free cat food giveaway that was featured on the blog, Pawsitively Pets by Ann Staub. I received the package (or I should I say, packages) this afternoon! We definitely won't have to worry about buying cat food for a while, which is fantastic especially considering our limited income at the moment. Thanks so much, Ann and Hill's!



Now the only thing I have to figure out is where to put all of these bags in my already cluttered house!


What I really love about this brand is that real meat is the first ingredient, as well as the fact that it doesn't contain any artificial junk- just good ol' natural ingredients. Furthermore, I like that the particular formula I received is grain-free.

Of course, the taste is also a huge bonus. All of the cats happily chowed down on the food the moment I placed it in their bowls.

Chihuahuas and birthdays, oh my!

I've been a bit preoccupied with things for the past few days, so I haven't been blogging and commenting much (My apologies!). Firstly, I have been pet-sitting an itty bitty four pound Chihuahua named Gaby in my house since the 3rd. She is the cutest little thing! We have all fallen in love with her- well, everyone except Sookie that is. I think she is jealous of all the attention that Gaby has been receiving. There are enough people living here that she is still receiving plenty of attention as well, but since I am the one caring for Gaby I have not been able to spend as much time with her as I normally do. However, Gaby is going home tomorrow so I will be able to spend more time with my baby girl once again. Obviously we will all miss her when she goes, though I think she will be returning on Thanksgiving week which I am very happy about since she has been such a wonderful and entertaining little house guest. Hopefully by then Sookie will have adjusted more to having her around!

Here are some cute photos of Gaby:








And here's one of Gaby and Sookie together (It's not hard to tell that Sookie wasn't very happy about having to be so close to her!):




For some reason, Gaby tends to spin in circles. Not sure if it is related to anxiety or if it's simply a habit. I managed to capture a video of it while we were outside. The noise in the background is the wind; luckily little Gaby didn't get blown away!




Furthermore, yesterday was my birthday. I am now officially in my mid 20s! I didn't have a big party, though. It was just my parents, sister, brother, my boyfriend, and the furkids, which I was perfectly fine with. 

My favorite: ice cream cake!
