We're on puppy watch!  Coffee and Rhombik pups are due June 14th.  The xray reveals 4, but could a 5th be hiding?

American Journey Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil #ChewyInfluencer


I have to thank Chewy.com or allowing me the opportunity to review

  American Journey Wild Alaskan Salmon Oil.

I have three Cardigans that are in double digits, 11, 12 & 14.  I do like the added benefits of a fish oil for the old dogs, especially for their joints.  If you don't believe me, google is your friend.

 It is nice to know where the ingredients come from for my dogs,  I am very happy with the sourcing of this product being from the USA and wild caught salmon. 

The best part of this product?  Is the dispensing!  There is NO MESS!  A simple squeeze into their dish is all it takes.  I do not measure, I just give a small squeeze... I personally believe the dosing directions to be a bit extravagant.  I am very careful with over-supplementing, as in many cases less is more.

This is definitely a product I will be using on a daily basis and I hope you will give it a try too!


I received these goodies free of charge from Chewy.com in an exchange for my honest review.

Reminiscing, and the future

Flora, Luther and Sabrina

As I was bathing my oldest dog today, I was reminiscing about where we started fifteen years ago and the path we are currently taking in Cardigans.

Our first Cardigans, Tristan, Demi and Cole, have all left this earth.  Our second generation, Sabrina and Luther, are now mature veterans.  Life other than dogs has kept us out of the show ring for the last couple years, but we are excited about what the future holds. Youngsters, Gatsby and Flora, bring in stunning attributes from other well respected breeders and we are excited about showing them.

In the meantime, we are planning our next litter.  This litter will be linebred on Luther through two of his sons.  The sire will be CH Merrythought The Keeping Quilt, a grandson of Rocky, and the dam is our "Coffee", Beistshemesh Cafe Au Lait, a daughter of Sterling.  All puppies will be black and white with brindle points.  I cannot begin to explain the excitement I have for this stunning pedigree!

Nylabone DuraChew Dental Chew Dino Dog Toy from Chewy.com

www.chewy.com


This winter has been a long, cruel winter in the Northeast, which has left us with little to say.   I must thank Chewy.com for providing us a distraction from the cold and snow, with allowing us to review a Nylabone DuraChew Dental Chew Dino Dog Toy!

Cardigans are tough chewers.  A smoked knee cap will only last a couple hours.  The Nylabone DuraChew Dental Chew Dino Dog Toy LASTS!!!  And the sale price of 3.99 each is a great deal.   This Dino chew helps clean teeth, and must taste great, as they all want to share it.  They love this chew toy! I highly recommend this toy to anyone who has a serious chewer in their home.

Here is Gatsby showing off a Dino for you!  

Let me tell you a little more about Chewy.com.    Remember I said that this winter has been brutal?  Chewy.com has made this winter easier on us as we can place a $49 minimum order and get FREE SHIPPING!  That's right.  Dog and cat food, treats and toys, shipped direct to your door for FREE.  We have used them all winter to keep the 7 dogs and 4 cats well fed.  Their prices are less than what I can find locally, and since we are in New York, no sales tax.  We have received every order this winter the next day.  How can you beat that?

Thank you Chewy.com for making our winter a tad easier!
