I've been a bad blogger! can you forgive me?

Hi [FORMATTED_FIRST_NAME GOES HERE]!

Is it possible I haven't emailed all of you in nearly a month? Oops! I hope you'll forgive me. It's been a very busy month!

Here's what I've been up to:

I attended BlogPaws LiVE in Boulder, Colorado where I connected with many pet blogger friends, pet experts, brands, PR folks and of course... animals! From dogs and cats to llamas!
I've been working on a content catalog to organize and declutter the 600+ blog posts on my site!
I'm sewing a big beautiful quilt! It will be the 3rd quilt I've made this year.
This is little, but I finally set up "trim dog's nails" to automatically appear my calendar every 3 weeks. Small wins count, too!

In Boulder, I got to hang out with my friend Hannah. I can't believe we've been Instagram friends for 10 years! Since then Hannah has become a canine nutritionist.

At the BlowPaws event, she gave a talk about beneficial herbs you can add to your dog's meals as a little topper. I just published this video of Hannah talking about the 5 herbs she recommends:

Basil - for inflammation and immunity
Mint - for eyes, skin, and respiration
Cinnamon - great for dogs who are a little old and cold
Parsley - gut microbiome
Cilantro - detox helper

When I got back home Sunday night, I clipped off a little parsley for Burt and Lucy's dinner, and this morning they got a dash of cinnamon in their bowls. 🪴

Speaking of toppers, I have to shout out my Wear Wag Repeat Society member, Haley, who just published a kibble to topper calculator!

Haley has been working on this all Fall and it's so cool! I love that Stella & Chewy's is one of the brands to pick from because that's what we use.

I don't want to overfeed Burt and Lucy (as much as they really do want to be overfed!!). This calculator helps me see how much kibble to leave out when I'm adding a Meal Mixers topper. 😉

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

P.S. I'm not planning a lot of Black Friday stuff, but I did see the meal topper I love from Stella & Chewy's is 15% off right now on Chewy with code EARLY15!

Plus, if you use the Rakuten plugin on Chewy it's 10% cash back right now 😉
