Wordless Wednesday The Sky is Falling!

Sweet Potato and Pumpkin Dog Biscuits

Two Little Cavaliers is hosting a Regressive Dinner.  Thank you for letting us join in the fun!

This is our take on a receipe my husband and I found on AllReceipes.com.  If you are ever concerned about these, or any ingredients in a recipe, be sure to ask your animal wellness professional. 


Sweet Potato and Pumpkin Dog Biscuits

Ingredients:

2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup coconut flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup canned organic pumpkin (we used Nummy Tum-Tum)
1/4 cup canned organic sweet potatoes for dogs (again, we used Nummy Tum-Tum brand)
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

2. In a large mixing bowl, mix all ingredients together.  Add water as needed to make the dough workable.  (We added 2 tablespoons.) The dough will be dry and stiff.

3. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface.  Roll until dough is about 1/2 inch thick. 

4. Press cookie cutter into dough.  (We used ghosts for Halloween, but any cookie cutter works great!)

5. Bake in preheated oven until hard, about 30 minutes.

Marlon Brando Meets Elvis!!

Paw Print Adventures with Ziggy™ Amarillo, Texas

I think this is the first long journey we've taken with the pups.  We had to debate on whether or not to bring Brando.  He's fearful of so many things, we didn't want to cause him more anxiety.  All it took was a glance into his big eyes, and I knew he was coming along.  Ziggy doesn't care who comes, just as long as he gets to go bye-bye. So off we went to Amarillo with all three Cavaliers.

Ziggy slept most of the journey.  When we finally arrived in Amarillo, Ziggy's first stop was The Home Depot.  We had to pick up spray paint for Cadillac Ranch.  Cadillac Ranch has 10 Cadillacs, half-buried, in a very dusty cow pasture. Visitors can spray paint the bodies of these old jalopies.  If you're ever in Amarillo, we highly suggest this as one of your stops. 

This time, we had to plan how we were going to leave behind Ziggy's paw print.  This is the first place we could actually leave behind his paw print, we usually make-n-take his paw print with us. At Cadillac Ranch, tagging is not considered vandalizing. 

Obviously, we couldn't use spray paint since that would hurt him, so we decided to use our ever trusty ink pad.  He's getting to be an such an old pro at touching with his paw, that it only took one try to create a perfect print.

Ziggy, and his brothers enjoyed romping around at Cadillac Ranch. They can't wait to share Ziggy's next adventure with you.  

Where will Ziggy's paw print be next?

Humphrey's Day Off

Humphrey deserved a much needed day off.  So we decided to skip training, and spend the day horsing around. 

 Our first stop was Sonic Drive In.  Humphrey ordered a grilled chicken sandwich.  He had a little trouble pushing the button, so we had to help him.

He really enjoyed the chicken!

Next, we went to Three Dog Bakery.  The Cavaliers love the fresh baked treats they have.

Before we went inside, Humphrey had to check out the "others" that came before him.

Humphrey picked out peanut butter and carob cookies.

After the bakery, Humphrey was off to the dog park.  He needed to work off the chicken, and cookie!

Humphrey and his new friend.

Frisbee!

Run free Humphrey!

Here I come!

It was a wonderful afternoon.  After all that excitement, Humphrey spent the rest of his day curled up under the desk, sound asleep.  Rest comfy, my sweet little pup.

Ziggy's Wordless Wednesday

About Wordless Wednesday

It was really difficult to not write something on Wordless Wednesday.  Being that in a few minutes it will be Friday, I thought it was safe to share a little something about our tie dye day. 

My little guy was sick, but that didn't stop him from getting bored.  That's when we came up with the idea to tie dye shirts.  They turned out nice considering the directions didn't make any sense, and the Cavaliers were stepping all over the area we were trying to dye. (At one point, Brando had a green tail, and Ziggy was leaving multi colored paw prints all over our white ceramic tiles! What a hoot!)

Little Ziggy has his shirt draped around him like a cape!  Don't tell
Brando, but I think we put his shirt on backwards--oops!

Never having dressed the pups before, we weren't sure they'd wear the shirts. We were in luck, they didn't seem to mind.  Marlon Brando slipped his head right in, like an old pro.  Ziggy was so cute.  He's such a tiny little fry, that his shirt kept falling off.  The blanket that we used for the backdrop for our photos, was the drop cloth we dyed the shirts on.  As you can see from the blanket, we had quite the mess, but it was worth it.  We had a great time.  P.S. Brando's tail is no longer green, but I think Ziggy might be hanging onto his colored paws for his next paw print adventure!
