#FlashbackFriday: Earth Day Tips to Reduce Carbon Pawprints & Invest in Our Planet

Image
Every time I look at this photo of our alpha queen, Harley, from May 2018, eagerly anticipating eating this homemade cake pop, I often think how the cake pop looks like our planet Earth. So what a perfect photo for today's #FlashbackFriday pic ~ and in celebration of Earth Day and this year's theme of #InvestInOurPlanet.     "This is the moment to change it all — the business climate, the political climate, and how we take action on climate. Now is the time for the unstoppable courage to  preserve and protect our health, our families, and our livelihoods... . For Earth Day 2023, we need to act (boldly), innovate (broadly), and implement (equitably).  Businesses, governments, and citizens — everyone accounted for, and everyone accountable .  A partnership for the planet.. . It’s going to take all of us. All in." ~ EarthDay.org   To help do our part again this year, I am resharing a few of our #FiveSibes tips to help reduce your pet's carbon pa...

#FiveSibes #Flashback ~ Littermates #Pupsters sister Bandit & brother Wolf ~ 2020     "Allow your dog to take you for a walk every day.  It's good for the soul."    ~Eckhart Tolle  đź’š   I remember this day so clearly as we took a lovely backyard walk in our new yard with Pupsters Bandit and Wolfie. They had to be leashed as we did not yet have our fence up. Talk about excited Sibes! They loved exploring all the new sites and smells! I sure do miss these pups and our walks. Time flies, be sure to enjoy all the little moments, for one day they sure do become precious memories. đź’š And speaking of backyards...   My latest article is out in 4Knines, and I talk all about yard safety after the long winter's snow, and a great video on teaching your dog how to exit a pool. You can check it all out HERE .  And...since 4Knines is celebrating their 10th Anniversary, be sure to enter their fantastic GIVEAWAY, too! Your possible prizes consist of choos...

FlashbackFriday: When the FiveSibes Rocked the Pages of American Dog Media Magazine!

Image
  "Woo! We're magazine stars? Facebook famous? Cool!" Today, we are stepping back on this #FlashbackFriday to when our #FiveSibes were featured in the Fall 2014 issue of American Dog Media magazine in the "Famous Dogs on Facebook" section! What a thrill!   "Woo! We're in this cool magazine?" Gibson was excited when the magazine came (well, this FiveSibesMom was and I think he and all of them picked up on my excitement!) "Let me see!" Wolfie sniffed at the magazine.   Bandit, Harley & Chloe getting a peek!   "Woo. I always knew we were special pups!" quips Bandit.     I will always cherish this issue! And many thanks to American Dog Media for including my beloved FiveSibes! đź’› Memories Are Visits For the Heart đź’›       The Linky tool will open all week for you to join us in the Blog Hop and share pics from yesteryear or yesterday!
