August Chewy Review


It is time for our Chewy Review!


Butt
before we tell you about our review item we want to show you how totally pawesome Chewy is to do business with

Mom placed an order for some random supplies
two of them were liquid items
 - Salmon Oil and Nature's Miracle



Mom was very impressed with how they were packed
Chewy taped them to keep them from leaking 
and placed them in a zip lock bag

Chewy is Pawsome!

A few days after that package arrived


Another one arrived at our door


What do you think is in this box Mabel?


Not sure, Hazel, but I smell something good!


Since I love to chew, Mom thought we would try these
Beef Tendon Chews from Blue Wilderness
Made in the USA and one ingredient
Beef Tendons!


Chew, chew, chew


Yum yum yum! 

I did think the chew was very tasty
but Mom was disappointed



You see where the bag says Long-Lasting Chew ?

Well in about 30 minutes I had half of it gone
and then Mom took it away from me, she said it would be too much for me to eat the whole thing in one chewing

So although I thought the beef tendon was very tasty
Mom was not pleased it did not last long
She said we will not be ordering more of these - bummer!

We do appreciate our good friends at Chewy.com 
for letting us try these chews

disclaimer - we were not compensated for this post. Chewy.com provided us with this bag of Blue Wilderness Beef Tendons free of charge in exchange for our honest opinion.

Sunday Update


Wanted to give an update

Last night the fire was 0% contained
Firefighting was concentrated on saving homes

This afternoon it was reported 15% contained
The nearby town of Kamiah has lost
maybe 50 homes

My daughter sent this screen shot on her phone from the power company



They were lucky enough get a hold of a generator
(most were sold out already)
and now have water and lights.

Grandson was able to come home for a little rest and was thankful to be able to take a hot shower before getting back out to the fire.

Our prayers continue for everyone across the west that are affected and battling these fires

Fire Update


Thank you friends for all your thoughts and prayers
for my daughter and family

For now my daughters home is OK but they have no idea how long they will be without power,
 the power company can not get in to assess the damage
It could be days or weeks

There will be a town meeting this evening for residents
at the local elementary school




This picture is from last night a few miles down the road from daughters house
the road they drive every day to get home

She heard from the grandson about 3 pm
he is fine but out fighting the fire so continued prayers for his and the all the firefighters safety are much appreciated


Thank you
Linda


Prayers for My Daughters Family




Fires started yesterday where our Daughter lives
in Orofino, ID and surrounding areas. 


visiting in June

Thankfully last night the winds were going in the opposite direction of their home but they are without power


Our Grandson's summer job is with the 
Clearwater Forest Protection Agency so he is out
there helping fight the fire.

I did hear from my daughter this morning
The wind has stopped for now, still no power
Austin was home at 2 am for some rest and 
back out at 8 am

Please keep them and their neighbors in your prayers


Thank you friends

See Beautiful Friday

Today we are joining our furiend Sugar for 

This Moment - See Beautiful



It has been almost one year since we lost our
 Sweet Greta 

I don't think there has been one day 
that I have not shed tears for her

But in the memories I hold so dear in my heart

 I See Beautiful 

It is this time of year I usually attend 
3 day obedience/rally trial

 I have been thinking back to August 2013
 when Greta and I showed in Rally and Obedience

and she earned her first title in Rally Novice 

It was a beautiful weekend

In addition to her Rally Title, 
she also qualified 2 days in Beginner Novice Obedience

 and finished that title in June 2014


Thinking back, for some reason I thought that Greta struggled with focus when we were in the ring

 Well I was lucky to have family and friends 
take lots of pictures and most of them showed
me just how focused Greta was -  on me







Back at the same venue in 2014







Greta qualified two days in PreNovice Obedience last year and some of you may recall it was on the 3rd day
that she puked right at the judges feet! 
Ooops!

It was also at this trial that the judge commented
"Well you can't beat a recall like that!"

In this picture I am telling Greta to stay 
before I walk across the ring to call her to me

And thanks to the magic of technology
I was able to string the photos together so you can see

Greta's Beautiful "Recall"


Miss you my beautiful girl
