Holidays

Christmas Vacation

Well, it is that time of year, again.  You know, the over the river and through the woods to grandmother's house thing.  Unfortunately, the closest thing to woods I see is a forest of semi-trucks at the rest areas.  Cooped up in our Jeep for 14 hours (longer if the weather is bad) is not my idea of a fun time, but the destination is worth it.
 
Sadly, this year, there is only one grandmother's house to visit.  MorMor, my Swedish grandmother in Connecticut, passed away this year.

Thanksgiving

Normally, Thanksgiving is a day when I patrol the kitchen floor and am thankful for stuff that falls off the dishes.  But this year is different.

As WaterDog Adventure Gear™ nears the end of our first year of sales, I am thankful for all of the humans who purchased our product so that their dogs could have as much fun as me.  And us dogs know that happy dogs make happy humans.  I am also thankful for our U.S. suppliers for working with us as we grow.  U.S. manufacturing means jobs.

Memorial Day

With MemorialDay fast approaching, I get excited about the thought of boating season kicking into gear.  But the holiday is a time to reflect on the sacrifices our men and women in the armed forces, past and present, have made to make it possible for the rest of us to enjoy our freedom.  And let's not forget my fellow K-9s who play a role in military service and serve as companion dogs to our vets.
 
With this in mind, I'd like to share a video I came across that shows how much we care:

Easter

Okay, so I gave you some bad advice on how to fill out your March madness bracket.  Yes, I know my picks for the Championship, the Huskies and the Bulldogs, didn't even make it past the first round!  I won't waste your time with my stock picks. 
 
Well, tomorrow is Easter and that means that boating season is right around the corner!  I won't make the same mistake as last year when I had a Peeps® hangover.  I didn't think snatching a bowl of yellow and pink chickies off the counter would make me feel so bad!

Cats and Dogs Playlists

Well, it's that time of year when we head over the river and through the woods to Grandmother's house.  I love seeing my relatives, but the car ride can be a real drag.  Having to potty amidst a sea of loud tractor trailers at rest areas is not my idea of a good time.
 
The one thing that has made the ride more enjoyable is the invention of the iPod and playlists.  I had my owner build a playlist for me with songs and artists whose name relates to cats or dogs.  Examples include "Who Let the Dogs Out" (my personal favorite) and the Pussy Cat Dolls.

Giving Thanks

I love Thanksgiving!  I can recognize it right away because both my owners stay home and on the TV there are huge Snoopy, Underdog and Scooby-Doo balloons flying in the air.  It is also the day that only the Lions and Cowboys host football games.
 
Our kitchen is usually a busy place in the morning.  There are pots and pans everywhere and it is a great time to sniff around the floor for spills.  There is always a turkey and a couple of pies in the oven.
 
I see why they call it Thanksgiving.
