Now Im sure you remember that super cool pet gift box I told you about two times before. Well I got another one earlier this month and haven't really had time to write. I have been working over time because, my mamas cousin JJ died and she's been really sad. I have had to act super silly to try and help her smile.
This box was all about summer fun. I got two super cool toys, 2 super cool snacks, and even this gurrrrate stick to protect my paws.
First to tell you all about those toys.
Toy# 1 was a pupsicle. You could have your person throw it in the water and it floats. You can even have them wet it squish out the extra water and then toss it into the freezer and let it get nice frozen and cool to play with. Ahhhh such cool relief.
Toy #2 Was a life guard themed toy. I love that it floats and has a nice fun rope to chew on. It even had a plastic ring so my mama could play tug with me. I love when she plays tug. It's so much fun and my tail wags so hard she says I might take flight.
Man do I love snacks. I must be a doggy foodie.
Snack # 1 came in a mix. you add hot hot water into it and pour it into molds or even just a glass pan. This snack was a very tasty pup-rize I didnt know that they made peanut butter jello for dogs. That was just so cool and fun to snack on.
Snack #2 This was the best snack I have ever had. I loved it. My tail became a blur. This treat you mixed with some hot water and had to put in the freezer for what felt like furever. Then when it came out guess what. It was ICE CREAM I love love love ice cream. That's like the best snack ever. My mama said that this is something that I have to savor so I could only have 1 or 2 scoops a day. I think thats not fair because it's mine. I think she just wanted to eat it all by herself.
This super cool stick is really nice. It has lots of good stuff in it like coconut oil. This little stick is so nifty. In the winter it helps protect your paws from salt and ice. In the summer it protects them from the heat. It even works great for chapped raw dry paws and noses. This is just so cool. I love that it's low to no mess and that its also unscented.
Hi everyone. I know I usually write about doggy stuff but this water bottle is PAWSOME.
My mama is in a wheelchair and she likes to drink lots of water. She was given the Eddy bottle from the nice people at CamelBak.
Now I know thats a silly name for a water bottle and backpack company but I think it's kinda catchy. See Camels store their water in that big hump on their back.
These bottles are built to last. They go through so much testing. This just proves they're super strong.
I love these bottle because they have sizes for all the two legged members of your family. Even the little ones. They get tougher super strong bite valves for those super sharp teeth. Plus the fun colors and prints will have the tiny hands ditching those dull baby bottles, and kicking the sippy cup habit for a big kid cup. They will always be asking, fill my bottle please. This is a fun and easy way to get them to drink more water.
The following information from the company was taken from their website.

Camelbak was started in 1989 by Bicycle enthusiast Michael Eidson, is competing in the "Hotter'N Hell 100." And that's exactly what it is: a 100-mile road race in the grueling summer heat of Wichita Falls, Texas. Water is vital to surviving the race, and there are few places to refill a water bottle. Eidson, an emergency medical technician by trade, decides to fill an IV bag with water and slip it into a white tube sock. Yes, a tube sock. Then he stuffs the contraption into the back of his bike jersey, throws the thin hose over his shoulder and clamps it with a clothespin.
Hands-free hydration is born. And Eidson is able to drink as he pedals...while the other racers laugh and fiddle with their water bottles. OPERATION HYDRATION — THE ROAD TO SURVIVAL
Jeff Wemmer, a competitive cyclist who fell hard for CamelBak, was so impressed by the product that he started bringing packs to races to sell them. Talk about a fan. CamelBak eventually hired him, and in 1993, Jeff embarked on a road trip to keep the start-up running during very tough times.
Company lore has it that Jeff visited bike shops from Florida to California, pitching our product from the back of his motorcycle. Each order Jeff faxed back to the factory literally breathed another day of life back into CamelBak.
THE REST IS HISTORY
It took courage, conviction and imagination to evolve from an IV bag in a tube sock sold by a motorcycle-driven sales force of one. Our core values remain the same and drive everything we do - from inventing the hydration category to becoming the world's leading maker of hydration solutions.
Oh yeah...about those cyclists who laughed at Eidson? Well, chances are they've got a CamelBak strapped to their back or in their bike cage these days. Go figure...
CamelBak is all about giving back to those in need and that makes them super pawsome. To learn about the great ways they give back check out this link. http://www.camelbak.com/Sports-Recreation/About-Us/Giving-Bak.aspx
I really love this company for the simple fact that they do a lot of good for the environment, things like encouraging their employees to ride bikes or public transportation to work. That helps cut down on that icky pollution. I HATE pollution it makes me wanna growl. GURRR.
Now back to this bottle. It's made of really strong BPA free plastic and has a built in removable straw and this really cool thing called a bite valve. To use that bite valve you simple lightly bite and suck and then you get a nice big gulp of water.
Don't wanna use the straw?? That's cool too. Take it off and use the tip and sip feature.
So if you need a high quality easy to use water bottle to make sure your person always has water to share with you drag them out and make them buy a CamelBak. You won't be sorry. They are so many colors and options that there's something for everyone.
In fact I have a doggy friendly bottle idea for them. They already have a bike bottle with a jet valve. Maybe they can make an attachment to the lid that your human can put a small pop up dog bowl on so on a walk, you can have your person pop off that bowl and squeeze some water in it for you.
OH boy I got this super pawsome to my specifications experimental dog leash wrap.
I really love it because it covers most of my leash, is bright red and has black letters.
The words are front and back.
SERVICE DOG FULL ACCESS REQUIRED DO NOT DISTRACT OR PET.
Now I know that sounds a little mean but really its not. A service dog must stay focused on their person and if you play with us an OH NO might happen. Our mama or daddy or girl or boy may get hurt and then we'd cry. That's why you don't need to try and play with us.
Silly store owners sometimes try to tell our person that they cant bring us is because "Dog's are nasty" well it's illegal not to let a service dog in and this nifty thing helps cut down on that.
I love the fact that the nice lady that owns this company is willing to work with people to design pawsome products that really work and look great too,
They also sent me some good smelling dry shampoo powder to use in between baths as a way to smell your very best. Something that is very important to a service dog.
Remember with this powder a little goes a looooong way.
The smell I got is Wild Dog even though I'm very mellow. BOL.
Wild Dog- geranium, citronella and cedarwood blend to repel insects and protection blend including orange, eucalyptus and rosemary to purify and cleanse bacteria. This cool stuff is even made with arrowroot.
I think if they used a little DE it would be even better. I love DE.
This talented lady even makes bandannas, fannypacks, shampoo, paw balm, and decals.
I wish she could use her talents to surprise my mama with a cool decal for her car. I want to get her one with a girl in a wheelchair (like pictured) with a dog in a vest beside it And I want it to say... STAY BACK WHEELCHAIR AND SERVICE DOG NEED ROOM TO LOAD AND UNLOAD
I wonder if I send her dog lots of treats if I can buy a cool decal like that.
