Instagram of the Week: @PuppiesForAll

LATROY LOVES THE PUPS!

I mean who doesn't love PUPPIES?! I remember being followed on Instagram one day by this puppies account and after going through their photos of the most precious beautiful PUPPIES, I gave an instant follow back immediately. Which is why i'm making @PuppiesForAll Instagram of the Week! I have two dogs in my household, two of which who aren't PUPPIES anymore. I own a female Shih-Tzu and my little brother owns a male Dachshund, they both get a long when they feel like it. 

But there's nothing like having a new born PUPPY around in your home. PUPPIES are the most loving, caring and playful pets to ever want, as they grow up they become everything to you like how we all need oxygen to survive, that's what PUPPIES can do to one person. If you're someone interested in looking to follow other Instagram accounts besides your family, friends and celebrities, I suggest you follow @PuppiesForAll, hey aren't dogs a family's best companion?! 

Who Knows Maybe You'll Find Your Future Puppy !!!

Shake A Paw Puppies

Seriously, I love going to pet stores just to look at all the cute adorable puppies you can possible imagine. The other day my friend Britnie Antoinette and myself took a trip after school out to Shake A Paw pet store on Route 22 in New Jersey. Neither one of us had the money to buy a puppy, but I just love the fact that you can take out a puppy and play with them lol. I have a female Shih-Tzu already and I'm always asking my mom for another dog, I'm always setting myself up for failure lol. We took out a 2 month old female Yorkshire Terrier who is a feisty and energetic little playful pup. We named her Tullulah, CUTE RIGHT!? 

We were done with Tullulah because she had peed on the floor and was rolling around in her pee which was so weird. Then I met another little Lhasa Apso puppy who was the cutest male dog I've ever seen. He was the cutest white/dirty blonde fluffy little thing. I felt a connection with him dearly, even though we didn't take him out of the cage there was something that felt like we were meant to be. I wanted him dearly and I still do. I named him Rio! Of course, I couldn't tell you this story without having pictures, so here are some pictures plus a lil extra treat after the jump. Enjoy :-)! 

Pet Grooming Sometimes Too Much!

I just noticed why does local pet grooming services charge more than brand pet companies such as Petsmart, PetCo. and etc. Seriously, I own a 4 year old female Shih-Tzu and I get charged $50 just for a full groom, $30-$40 for just a wash. I checked prices for PetSmart and a grooming package the most is $21, talk about saving money. The reason why I don't go to PetSmart or PetCo. reason being the distance of how far I am from the nearest one. New Jersey isn't quite travel friendly to these places at the most. I mean whatever, dog grooming shouldn't be so much an d strict on shots, as long as the pet has updated their shots at the beginning of the year, there shouldn't be a problem. What's your take on the situation? Do you come across expensive dog grooming? 

Must Love Dogs

I have literally found my favorite dog and owner couple. Everyone say hello to Bethenny Frankel and her precious baby Cookie. Actually, not only am I obsessed with the two but they act just like how me and my dog Tokyo would act. Bethenny treats Cookie like she is the queen of the world and although I may not give Tokyo all that power, I still know how to make Tokyo feel very much important in my life. I recently came across Bethenny's YouTube page and saw a video of Bethenny giving Cookie these delightful treats and it was such the cutest thing to see Cookie eat a carrot and popcorn =). Also there's a video where Bethenny is pretending to be the voice of Cookie, telling all of YouTube land her diet regime after the holidays and how she plans to get back in shape. Hopefully I can find a video of my dog and I. I'm telling you,  Once you see us you will see the similarities Bethenny share in the unconditional love we give our pooches. =)

Wishful Wednesday...

Haha, so I guess everyone know's my Wish this Wednesday. I already have a Shih-Tzu, but she's growing up and really hasn't never been around other dogs. Tokyo, my Shih-Tzu, needs company in her life. I'm beginning to think about saving up tons of money again to buy a boy Yorkshire/Maltese mix. Yes! This is Wishful Wednesday. Let's Make It Happen People!!! Who Wants To Sponsor? =)

What Do You Feed Your Pet?

I like to feed my pooch Purina "Beneful" and shall I add my toy breed Shih Tzu "Tokyo" absolutely goes crazy for it. I sometimes give her "Puppy Chow" but that's only when I need her bowl to look full. I truly recommend you give your dog "Beneful" because it has everything your dog needs. "Beneful" is full vitamins, calcium, and all wholesome natural healthy food; just turned into dog food somehow. There are 6 different kinds of "Beneful"; Original, Healthy Harvest, Healthy Weight, Healthy Radiance, Healthy Growth (Puppies), & Playful Life. I choose to give my dog Tokyo "Healthy Weight" so she can stay at the same healthy weight. Lately, she's been feeling a little skinny so I might kick up her food step and switch over to the "Playful Life" brand. "Beneful" brand also produces wet food that's awesome, it's just like home cooked meals, like you can really eat them if you were starving to death lol. What do you feed your dog? How often do you feed your dog? Let me know, I love hearing how other people raise their dog.

Dogs And Obedience

Ever wondered what your patience level is? Well, in reference to a dog think of it as three crying newborns. Now do you have patience? Dogs are are blank when you first meet them. Dogs only go by what they want to do when and however they please. I own a black and white Shih Tzu by the name of Tokyo. Tokyo's a 2 and a half year old girl. I first got her when she was 6-months. Training and Obedience to me, Thank God wasn't that bad. It is said it is best to train your dog when they are puppies. Overall, Tokyo did give me a hard time while teaching her to sit, stay, and come when called upon. My reason for this blog is to figure out the mind of dogs and why they only have a mind of their own. Training a dog isn't always peaches and cream as you see on television. There is a lot of hard work, dedication and PATIENCE that goes into training your dog to be obedient. Well, here's what I'm wondering about my dog. Most of the time when Tokyo sees me with her leash she knows its time for a walk. Now, on the other hand when I'm away and I leave my mother to tend to Tokyo, she doesn't listen to my mother nor does she come to her at command. Is it because my dog was so attached to me teaching her commands or is it because my mother doesn't put enough bass in her voice for Tokyo to listen? lol. I tried telling my mother to bribe her with lil snacks each step Tokyo takes towards her when she calls, but then that'll only make Tokyo think she has to have a treat to come when called. HELP ME OUT!!! What do you think?
