Happy 6th Birthday Delia
My princess is 6 years old! Her birthday was March 31, but I’ve been ill, so we had to postpone her celebration a few days. We started the day by fetching her new teeny tennis ball in our back yard. Delia had sooooo much fun celebrating her birthday by fetching her new ball in the backyard today! Next…dinner and cake! ???????? #happybirthdaydelia #birthdaydog #Delia #bichonfrise #bichonbirthday #dogbirthday #dogsplaying #dogsofinstagram #dogstagram #petsofinstagram #birthdaygirl #birthday A photo posted by Lisa Bregant (@heartprintspets) on Apr 2, 2016 at 3:04pm PDT Then, we took the party inside for dinner and cake.

The Pet Blogger Bloopers Round-Up: Holiday Photos
Christina at The Lazy Pitbull is hosting another fun photo challenge. The Pet Blogger Bloopers Round-Up will take place the second Friday of each month, featuring photo “bloopers” that might not make it into a blog post. A few weeks ago, I photographed the dogs at work for holiday gifts for their families. Not everybody was happy with posting for photos, regardless of what type of treats they got in return for posing. Sadie wasn’t a fan of the Christmas tree hat. ChiChi was distracted by her brother Mr. Big’s singing. Maelee stuck her nose in Maci’s photo. Jasmine wasn’t interested in hanging around… Bela made a funny face when…

Happy National Dog Day!
August 26th is celebrated annually as National Dog Day! National Dog Day was founded in 2004 by Colleen Paige, Pet & Family Lifestyle Expert and Animal Advocate. National Dog Day serves to celebrate dogs. Working dogs, family dogs, hero dogs, service dogs…whatever role your dogs play in your life…today is the day to celebrate their impact on you life. National Dog Day also serves to bring recognition to dogs in shelters in need of adoption. I work at a Doggie Daycare and have the pleasure of spending every day surrounded by awesome dogs. I want to share just a few of my friends here, today:

Chewy Caught the Ball!
We decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and do what Delia loves best….fetch! Except today, Chewy was determined to get the ball before Delia… …and he’s off! He caught the ball!! He usually can’t keep up with her, but this time, they ran together! He decided to take it to the deck and chew on it for a bit. Delia: “You gonna let go of that ball, Chewy?” Chewy: “No, I think I’m gonna keep it.”

G: German Shepherd Dog
Today’s letter is…. for…. German Shepherd Dogs German Shepherds Dogs are beautiful, strong, intelligent, and loyal dogs who were originally bred in Germany in 1899 for herding sheep. Modern German Shepherds are known more for their work in search and rescue and military and police service. The German Shepherds I know are happy and well loved members of their families who enjoy spending time at daycare with their canine friends. Maya has been coming to daycare since she was a puppy. It has been such fun watching her grow. Ember is another GSD puppy friend who is a daycare regular. She is sweet, smart and everybody’s friend. Zeus is a…

E: Eurasier
Today’s letter is….. for…. Eurasier The Eurasier is a Spitz-type dog that originated in Germany in the 1960’s by Julius Wipfel. The breed was initially a cross of a Chow Chow and a German Wolfspitz, with the Samoyed bred in later to develop what is now known as the Eurasier. Romie is a daycare regular at A Howlin’ Good Time and she is the only Eurasier I have met in person. I had never heard of her breed until I met her. They are known to be calm, even tempered, playful, loyal, and intelligent. Yep, that describes Romie. One of the Eurasier’s characteristics is that they can be reserved with…

C is for Chewy
Today’s letter is…. for Chewy! Today marks one month since Chewy joined our family. He is a nine month old Lhatese and an absolute joy. It has been many years since I’ve had a puppy and he keeps me on my toes. The boy is aptly named. He will put anything in his mouth. We’re working hard on learning what is OK to chew and what is not OK to chew. I’m lucky in the fact that I can take him to work with me, so he spends the day playing with his friends at daycare. Daycare is great for socialization and exercise that puppies need. He is mastering housebreaking…

B is for Boxers
Today’s letter is… for… I didn’t know many boxers until I started working at A Howlin’ Good Time doggie daycare. There are several that come for daycare and boarding and it has been so much fun spending time with them and becoming more familiar with the breed. Boxers are such funny, energetic and affectionate dogs. Boomer. Ah, Boomer. I adore this guy. He’s the sweetest grumpy older guy you could ever meet. His raspy bark, intense glare, and sweet nuzzles melt my heart. Shasta is strong, quiet, and sweet. All of the girls love him and the boys are intimidated because he’s strong, handsome, and well, all the girls love…
