Bowser Beer….Is your dog drinking responsibly?

Is Your Dog Drinking Responsibly?
1. Does he need a ‘designated walker’ to return home from parties?
2. Does he take sips of your beer?
3. Does he evoke pangs of guilt in you when he looks longingly at your cold, frosty, beer?
4. Do you give in to those pangs of guilt?
5. Does he feel inadequate when the invitation says ‘BYOB’?
6. Do you find tell-tale nose/tongue prints on your drink glass when you aren’t looking?
7. Has his Santa wish-list outgrown tennis balls and dog cookies?
8. Does he get excited when your favorite team scores, requiring yet another trip to the water bowl?
9. Does he think life is just one big party?
10. Are you the center of his universe?
If you have answered ‘Yes’ to any or all of these, it’s time to pick up a 6-pack of Bowser Beer™!

Where did the Easter Bunny come from?
The rabbit, as one of the most fertile animals, was associated with the Pagan Spring Festival celebrating the goddess of Eostre, from whom the word Easter is derived. Eostre was associated with fertility, as is the rabbit and the egg.
The Easter Bunny was introduced to America by the German settlers who arrived in the Pennsylvania Dutch country during the 1700s. The arrival of the “Oschter Haws” (the bunny) was considered “childhood’s greatest pleasure” next to a visit from Christ-Kindel on Christmas Eve.
According to tradition, boys used their caps and girls used their bonnets to make the nests. They would hide the nests in the home, barn, or garden for the Easter bunny. If they were good children, the “Oschter Haws” would leave brightly colored eggs in their nests.
As the tradition spread, the nest evolved into the manufactured, modern day Easter basket.
Want to go for a walk?
One of the reasons I just LOVE my job is this video… Every day I am greeted with wagging tails, barks and purrs of happiness, and an excuse to stay in shape! :0) The stars in this clip is Sadie (brown) and Murphy (black) who I visited and walked this past week each AM and PM
