Can't tell that Domeek loves her new iPhone, can you?! Pft!!<br />
<br />
Don't forget to follow us on <a href="http://instagram.com/dominiquegoose">Instagram</a>, we're a bit prolific, so you'll see us there all the time! ;-) Muahaha!<br />
<br />
Oh and it's my second birthday on Saturday, so make sure that you stop by next week for a complete recap of the festivities...Domeek won't tell me what we're doing, but I'm sure it'll be fun, fun, fun, fun, fun! ;-)<br />
<br />

I hope that you have all had a wonderful weekend! :-)<br />
<br />
Domeek says that I am having a rough time in transitioning to her new schedule...to that I say "Puuuu-cha and duh!!!!" ;-) 1. I am not, in any way, shape, or form a morning puppy...and we get up before the sun...everyday! 2. I like being around her all the time and now I don't see her during the day :-( 3. My kitty siblings are taking it out on me too!!<br />
<br />
So, I was "<i>acting out</i>" all weekend and even got into a mis-understanding (my words, cause I swear, I didn't mean to go all ape-s^%t on CJ) at the dog park. Domeek is feeling really bad about herself and the way her new schedule is affecting me...<b>GOOD</b>!!! She says that we'll get back into the swing of things again, it will just take some time. Boo!<br />
<br />
But we spent all weekend long together, sleeping in, hanging out, going to the dog park...it was a lot of fun!<br />
<br />
I did just realize that I never posted photos of my pawesome 5k that happened last weekend! So, today is the perfect day to show them off!!<br />
<br />
We had a fantastic time at the event and raised a grand total of $375 (the event raised a whopping $229,000)!! WooHoo!! Thanks again to everyone who donated!! :-D<br />
<br />
The run took place at an incredibly beautiful park in South San Jose called Hellyer (weird name!). It was massive and had a gorgeous lake right in the middle! Aw!<br />
<br />

<br />
When we checked in, I was given a bandanna (I do not do bandannas!), which is now decorating my leash, and Domeek got a shirt!!<br />
<br />

<br />
Here we are at the start line (before everyone wandered over)!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://scontent-b-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1376385_10201502636702351_1216925245_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="400" src="https://scontent-b-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1376385_10201502636702351_1216925245_n.jpg" title="" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Let's do this!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://scontent-b-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/1378552_10201502636662350_1185669743_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="400" src="https://scontent-b-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/1378552_10201502636662350_1185669743_n.jpg" title="" width="300" /></a></div>
<br />
And then we started...sorry there was no time or energy to take photos on the actual run! Good dog, that was the longest and hardest 3 and a bit miles that I have ever done! Whoa...there were dogs and people everywhere (until the mid point, where we started losing runners...hehehe)! Luckily there were water tables set up all over the place and some even had puppy biscuits to give us the energy to continue! Noms!!! ;-)<br />
<br />
Luckily though, we finally finished...phew!! I tell you, there were a couple of points that I didn't think we were going to make it!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://scontent-b-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1385797_10201502637102361_956650460_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="400" src="https://scontent-b-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1385797_10201502637102361_956650460_n.jpg" title="" width="276" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Can't tell I'm exhausted...can you?! ;-)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But I was given a stuffie when we crossed the finish line!! It was pawesome (and now completely destroyed!)!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As you can see...I was super duper proud of myself on the way home!! I can now check that "Run a 5K" off my bucket list!!! :-D</div>

<br />
I'm sure you've already noticed, but I've been mia for the last week...we can all blame Domeek, who just started a new job! She's super busy right now (my alone time with her has severely been impacted too), but it will eventually calm down and we'll be back to our regular schedule soon!<br />
<br />
This weekend was the official start to Pumpkin season in our house!!! We started off in Half Moon Bay...and then came home to decorate!<br />

<br />
On Monday, Domeek and I decided to take a quick tour around the Stanford campus. We haven't hung out there in quite a few months, so I wanted to make sure that my park was the same as I left it! ;-) Luckily it was! Phew!<br />
<br />
To begin with I felt like I was channeling <a href="http://spottyspottypolkadotty.blogspot.com/">Blueberry</a>...<br />

<br />
Yes, you can insert "Ooooooo's" and "Awwwwww's" now!<br />
<br />
Buuuuuuuuuut, what you don't see is that I can be a major butt to her too! ;-) Domeek says she doesn't understand why Little Bit puts up with all my cr@p...I just tell her, it's cause she <i>loves</i> me! Hehehe!<br />

<br />
It's called the <a href="http://www.snoozerpetproducts.com/pet-rider-bicycle-seat-lookout-p-31.html">Snoozer Rear Bike Basket Carrier</a>!!<br />
<br />
Since the weather is getting cooler now, we decided that it's time to start bike riding (a new experience for moi)...some of you larger dogs might run beside the bike with a bike attachment, but I have bad knees and am a little bit too small to do this! So, Domeek went ahead and got me a fun new carrier!!<br />
<br />
There are a lot of choices available on the market...most of which are super cute and attached to the front of the bicycle (<a href="http://sleepypod.com/sidekick">Sleepypod</a>, <a href="http://www.snoozerpetproducts.com/snoozer-sporty-pet-bike-basket-p-83.html">Snoozer</a>, <a href="http://www.solvitproducts.com/products-ls798_1_ls-i49_i.aspx">Solvit</a>, and <a href="http://www.petgearinc.com/products.asp?cl=12">PetGear</a> are just a few examples) and then two wheelers that look like kids bike carriers. The only problem with 3/4 of the options are that they are geared towards pups that are 13-15 lbs maximum...well, I'm 15 lbs and have pretty long legs, so if I gain even an ounce or more of weight, I'm too heavy for them and then there's safety issues! :-( This just wasn't a chance that Domeek was willing to take! Sleepypod is a fantastic option, but they were out of our price range.<br />
<br />
So, Domeek decided to get the Rear Bike Basket Carrier!! As long as you get a bike rack, this carrier can hold pups up to 24 pounds in weight, which is almost 10 pounds heavier than the other options! :-)<br />

Considering that we have the Snoozer Lookout II for my car seat, Domeek knew that I would love this one, especially since they are almost identical!!<br />

Although it looks incredibly large in the photos, the carrier has small square footage for the tush so if you are a pup with a big rear end, this might not be the best option for you! Sir Mix-A-Lot loved the butts, but Snoozer doesn't feel the same way. ;-)</div>

I took to the carrier, like a duck to water!! :-D We went on a quick practice run around the block, to make sure that I was cool with riding...then when we came back, I asked Domeek almost immediately to put me back on the bike...so we went back out again! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All in all, this was a wonderful first experience riding a bicycle..and I didn't even have to use training wheels to begin with! ;-) Muahaha!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So here are my thoughts on the Snoozer Rear Bike Basket Carrier:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><u>Pros</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ Super, duper comfortable and plush</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ Removable and washable cover</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ Has a fantastic reflective stripe across the back for evening rides</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ The carrier doesn't move...it has three straps that hold it in place on the bike frame</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ The price is comparable to most bike carriers</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ Holds pups up to 24 pounds</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><u>Cons</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ The tush circumference thing...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ Although waterproof, the carrier doesn't have a rain cover like others in the Snoozer line</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
~ It's rear facing, which means that you can't keep a constant eye on the furry one</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All in all though, a wonderful product!! I can't wait to get back out on the road again!! Perhaps, one day, we'll be able to get a photo of us both on the bike...a little hard when you don't have another human around! ;-) We're going to head out to the Bay this weekend! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So, I know a couple of you have a two wheeler, but do any of you ride on the bike with your pawrent? What do you use?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<i>Oh yeah, we bought the Snoozer...no one asked us to do a review! Just loved it and wanted to let you all know about it! ;-)</i></div>

<br />
Some of you might already know, but today is <a href="http://www.animalcenter.org/events/remember-me-thursday">Remember Me Thursday</a>, a day that has been set aside to bring awareness to all the animals who have been and currently are sitting inside of shelters and rescue groups across the country (and world) just waiting for their forever home to come and pick them up!<br />
<br />
All across the nation today, people are coming together virtually or in person for candle lighting ceremonies!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Even though lots of cities and counties are now turning towards the "no kill" shelter movement, over 3.4 million animals are still euthanized each year...just waiting...<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">(Source: The Humane Society of the United States 2013)</span> </i>:-(<br />

<br />
Here are some of the adorable pups that Domeek has worked with, in the past, at shelters!<br />
<br />
Considering that there are over 164 million different pets in the US, but only 30% of them come from rescue facilities, we need to start to bring awareness to all the pups and kittens that are spending each night in a shelters and not in warm and loving homes!<br />
<br />
Can you help and get this movement rolling?<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.animalcenter.org/">Helen Woodward Animal Center</a> invites you to take part and spread the word - from <a href="http://www.animalcenter.org/events/remember-me-thursday/images/Highlighted%20Facebook%20Announcement_CAT%20-%20Copy.jpg">Facebook</a> to <a href="http://www.animalcenter.org/events/remember-me-thursday/images/RMT%20Cover%20Photo%20-%20Puppy.jpg">Twitter</a> to <a href="http://www.animalcenter.org/events/remember-me-thursday/images/RMT%20Day%20Of%20Shareable_DOG.jpg">Pinterest</a>! :-D I encourage you to take a few minutes, light a virtual <a href="http://www.animalcenter.org/events/remember-me-thursday/lite-a-candle2.aspx">candle</a>, and dedicate the rest of today to all those shelter animals lost and waiting!<br />

I hope that you are having a pawesome week so far!<br />
<br />
So, normally I follow the rules of the whole "Wordless Wednesday BlogHop" but this week, I just can't! I'm sorry! I have too much to say, <i>well Domeek says that this is normal for me,</i> but bare with me!<br />
<br />
While we were at Bark in the Park last weekend (huddled under the semi-shelter of a tree), we happened upon a volunteer from the <a href="http://hssv.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=updated_home">Humane Society of Silicon Valley</a>. This poor woman was being sent out in the downpour to tell everyone about an upcoming fundraiser and event that they were hosting and trying to find people and pups to sign up! Well, as you all know, I wasn't going anywhere fast...so she had a captive audience with Domeek and I!<br />
<br />
Needless to say, after a few minutes, we were both excited and happily signed up!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Walk 'n Wag is an annual 5K walk/jog and festival that the Humane Society puts on at <a href="http://www.sccgov.org/sites/parks/parkfinder/Pages/Hellyer.aspx">Hellyer County Park</a> in San Jose. The park not only has 354 acres, a creek, hosts tons of half marathons, but also has a fantabulous dog park that lots of people and pups love! :-D<br />
<br />

<i>Borrowed from the HSSV website</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Now, there are a ton of rescue groups and shelters in the San Francisco Bay Area that all need love and support...but let me tell you why the Humane Society of Silicon Valley totally and utterly rocks ;-) :</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. Some of my bestest friends in the entire world found their forever homes through the Humane Society of Silicon Valley!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. HSSV finds homes for over 3,000 animals each year...that's a load of pups and kittens that needed lovin'!! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. HSSV takes in an additional 1,000 animals each year from other rescue groups in the area that need help!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
4. They believe in helping out the community! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul>
<li>They provide spaying and neutering for over 7,000 animals each year.</li>
<li>They offer discounts to military families and seniors in the county that want to adopt a new family member.</li>
<li>They teach humane education to over 8,000 kids per year and have even created a program aimed at the underserved youth in the area!</li>
<li>AND they provide free pet food to families in need that want to keep their pets in their homes!!</li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
These are just a few of the pawesome facts about the Humane Society! :-D Feel free to buzz along their <a href="http://hssv.convio.net/site/PageServer?pagename=updated_home">website</a> or <a href="https://twitter.com/hssv">Twitter</a> to discover more fab information about them!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Now, the real question becomes...<b>how can you help out</b>?!</div>

<div>
<br /></div>

We only have 11 days before the event, but are trying to raise as much money as possible for all those pups and kittens that need fantastic homes and all of the other wonderful programs that the HSSV offers to the community...but remember that we can only do so with your help!! ;-)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Either way, Domeek and I will be at Hellyer Park on October 5th with our bells on...ready to cause some ruckus on that journey!! </div>

Thanks to everyone's support and we can't wait to show you the photos!! :-D</div>

That's right my friends! I did not get to meet a ton of new doggie friends, I did not get to watch or learn the art of Flyball, and I did not get to eat tons of tasty treats! Instead, I had to wear my raincoat, run from tree to tree, and hope that the rain gods stopped pouring water on us - they did not listen!! We were at the park for 2 hours and we only got a few minutes of clear skies before the heavens opened and rain poured down! :-(<br />
<br />
I do not like the rain...I practically refuse to move in the rain...which meant that Domeek got covered in my muddy paw prints, but I just told her that's what happens when you show up in a light covered jacket! ;-)<br />
<br />
Sadly Bark in the Park, an event that has never seen rain, got rained out on Saturday!! When we were leaving almost all the vendors were packing up, most had lost quite a bit of their edible products...I offered to help out and eat them, but they all politely refused!<br />
<br />
It was soooooo sad! Oh well, Domeek says that there's always next year!<br />
<br />
I just hope this isn't an omen for the rest of Fall<br />
<br />

<br />
My dog, first off let me just complain that Domeek didn't get home in time for the dog park last night because Armageddon was happening on the Bay Area roads...it took her one whole hour to drive 2 miles from work to home! Isn't that insane?! I complained a bunch to her, but she didn't listen or care!! Pft! Instead, we just had a long walk around the neighborhood...but it just wasn't the same! Boo! :-(<br />
<br />
Luckily though, there were 3 boxes waiting on the doorstep and guess what?! They were all for ME!! Yeah baby! :-D<br />
<br />
Two of the boxes were my prizes from <a href="http://www.eventbarkers.com/">EventBarkers</a> and <a href="http://www.dremmos.com/">Dr. Emmo</a> after the <a href="https://twitter.com/search?q=pet1staid&src=typd">#Pet1stAid</a> Twitter party!<br />

<br />
Dr. Emmo sent me a ton of their first aid products including: wound rinse, wound gel, ear rinse, and eye rinse! What's great about their products is that they are all safe to lick and sting free, which means no owies! Ok, so maybe I don't want to get hurt, but man, if I do...I'm soooooo set!! ;-) Hehehe!<br />

Impatience showing again! ;-) This little guy is a <a href="http://www.petlinkssystem.com/">Petlinks</a> scents of security toy. When your pawrent leaves, they can put a piece of clothing or personal item inside of him, then you'll feel happy and secure like he/she is with you!<br />

I was also lucky enough to receive a <a href="http://www.gamma2.net/travel-tainer-pink.htm">Gamma2</a> travel pet food container...hehehe, it looks massive next to me, but it holds more than 6 cups of pup food in an airtight and fresh sealed container! Not only great for traveling, but also to keep in your ever-growing disaster or first aid kit! ;-)<br />

<br />
Finally, the package included a bunch of pet first aid tips (which I'm totally reading in the photo above) from the super knowledgeable <a href="http://fourleggedlife.com/">Arden Moore</a> and a reusable pet bandage from <a href="http://healerspetcare.com/">Healer's Pet Care</a>! I'm pretty sure that thanks to this win and a product from my latest Barkbox (the third package) my first aid kit is completely and utterly complete!! WooHoo!<br />

Thanks to everyone that participated in the Twitter party...I learnt soooooo much!<br />
<br />
I hope that you all have a fantastic weekend...I'm off to <a href="http://www.barksanjose.org/">Bark in the Park</a> on Saturday morning where I hope to at least take a look at a Flyball demonstration (if not participate in a clinic that the group is offering), check out all the latest local dog and cat vendors, and listen to a couple of great talks (one, hopefully from my favoritist doggie trainer!). I just hope that it doesn't rain too much! Then on Sunday evening, I'm off to cousin Pippi's house for a playdate and dinner! Whoop Whoop!!<br />
<br />
Take care everyone!<br />

On Saturday, Domeek woke me up super duper early...we packed into the car and drove to the beach!! :-D Yeah!!! I love, love, love the beach!!<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, it wasn't a warm and sunny day...quite the opposite in fact (Fall is in the air), but we still had the bestest time ever!<br />

<br />
I can't believe it, but Domeek and I met almost 2 years ago! I like to say that it was love at first sight...however she sees things a bit differently.<br />
<br />

<br />
She likes to reminisce about being kept up all night long for 3 months (it wasn't my fault at all, I swear, it was my siblings), having to clean up our messes all day long, and constantly having to give tons of love to each of us (where's the problem?).<br />

Of course, my friends over at the <a href="http://www.theuncommondog.com/">Uncommon Dog</a> have another perspective on how humans became BFF's with their pups! They recently contacted me regarding a fantabulous info-graphic that they just created called "<a href="http://www.theuncommondog.com/how-dogs-became-our-best-friends.aspx">How Dogs Became Our Best Friends</a>".<br />
<br />

<br />
Research and scientific findings have recently defined how we became an integral part of human society...I'm personally a big fan of how they refer to us as rescuers, trackers, watchers, and guides! Yep, I can definitely see it!!! ;-)<br />
<br />
Thanks to the <a href="http://www.theuncommondog.com/">Uncommon Dog</a> for creating such a beautiful and interesting graphic!<br />
<br />
Have a great day everyone and take a little time to give some lovin' to your BFF!!! :-D<br />

<br />
This morning didn't start off well...I was woken up and after a quick pee outside, I had a BATH! I wasn't even fully awake!! :-/<br />
<br />
I was so sad!<br />
<br />
But the worst was still to come!<br />
<br />
After Domeek's yoga class and my fur drying, Aunty Nilla came over with...I can barely say the word...the Clippers!! :-( Noooooo...say it ain't so!!!<br />
<br />
Now it's been a really long time since I went to the groomers, like almost a year, so my furs have been seriously going crazy, as you've probably been noticing in some of my last posts! But to help remind you, this is what I looked like this morning before getting a bath.<br />
<br />

<br />
Now, this is what I look like...I'm <b><i>naked</i></b>!!!<br />
<br />
Domeek's pretty happy with her first clip job, apparently there's still a couple of random furs that need to be trimmed, but other than that, I'm finished.<br />

<br />
I'm opting out of the regularly scheduled Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop today due to the unforeseen yet amazing information that I received last night on my very first Twitter party! :-) I saw a couple of you tweeting, but just in case you missed any and all of the crazy tips let me catch you up!<br />
<br />

<br />
<i>First up, let me tell you, those Twitter parties sure are confusing to begin with! Holy cannoli, I haven't concentrated that hard in a really long time! ;-) </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
We spent quite a bit of the event discussing tips and suggestions to do with evacuations and natural disasters. Since I live in California, the possibility of earthquakes is always on my mind (especially after being in the 1989 quake...haha, not me, but Domeek), but we received a ton of information on tornadoes, hurricanes, snow storms, and earthquakes!<br />

<br />
Here are a few general key points that the attendees brought up:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Familiarize a friend/neighbor/relative with your pets in case of a sudden absence or inability to return home during a disaster.</li>
<li>Designate a room or closet as a "safe room" and put all of your evacuation/pet first aid/supplies there!</li>
<li>Set aside an old duffel bag or suitcase and place all supplies inside, for quick and safe evacuation (I have three: 1 small for the car, 1 small for the house, and a large evacuation kit...anally retentive much? Haha).</li>
<li>If you evacuate, do so early. Natural disasters are frightening, so this will appease your pets and minimize stress.</li>
<li>Make a list of all pet-friendly shelters and hotels, that are outside of the disaster zone, and their requirements.</li>
<li>If you don't have a kennel available in a pinch, zip tie together two laundry baskets for makeshift kennel.</li>
<li>Keep all pets in sight and be calm, animals read their humans' energies! </li>
<li>Have an evacuation plan prepared ahead of time and <b>Practice, Practice, Practic</b>e!</li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I've always been petrified of tornadoes, so I was incredibly interested to hear these tips!</div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>Have a kennel at the ready; many animals have been found (after a tornado) safely inside their kennel!</li>
<li>If caught unaware, place kennels underneath heavy furniture and away from windows.</li>
<li>Make sure that you and your pet practice listening and responding to a tornado warning, especially since the warning signals can be very frightening to hear.</li>
<li>Consider training your dog or cat to go to a specific "safe" zone when they hear a tornado warning siren.</li>
</ul>

Of course, there were a lot of discussions regarding general pet first aid as well! Since <a href="http://www.dremmos.com/">Dr. Emmo</a> was the sponsor of the party, I learned quite a bit about their first aid products that sound amazing! </div>
<div>
<ul>
<li>I always forget, but a great reminder about keeping hydrogen peroxide on hand and in your first aid kit: 1 tablespoon per 25 pounds of pet, repeated every 10 minutes, in case they ingest something bad!</li>
<li>Put toxic chemicals and household products away from pets, if you live in a high wind or earthquake area, consider using childproof locks on cabinets as well (we do!).</li>
<li>If you are traveling with your pets, remember to keep up-to-date photos on hand (either hard copy or on your cell phone) in case of an escape! </li>
<li>Never pull a string out of the mouth (or the tush) of a pet, it can cause internal injuries...this goes for Christmas tinsel as well!</li>
<li>To easy your pet's anxiety, make sure to place a personal item with your scent on it, inside of their crate/carrier.</li>
</ul>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Overall, this was an incredibly interesting and time worthy event, so I'm glad that Domeek was able to attend! If you're interested in hearing more, just search #Pet1stAid in Twitter and read all about it! :-D </div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Dr. Emmo is giving away their <a href="http://www.dremmos.com/free-sample-kit.html">First Aid Travel Packs</a> to everyone interested, including: 2 oz travel containers of both wound care wash and wound care gel, all you have to do is pay $3 in shipping charges. They are also offering 30% off all orders between now and September 30th, with the coupon code: pet1staid at checkout. :-D It's never too early to get an evacuation or emergency kit together...this might be a great start! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I was so impressed with the doxies from <a href="http://youdidwhatwithyourweiner.com/make-a-pet-first-aid-kit-for-your-car/">You Did What With Your Weiner</a> and their car emergency kit...you might want to check their list out too! :-D</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, do you have any tips or suggestions to add and do you have an emergency plan prepared?! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Have a great day everyone!! :-)</div>

<br />
Domeek set up our tent in about 15 minutes, which to be quite honest, was much quicker than I gave her credit for! ;-) Hehehe!<br />
<br />
I, of course, helped her set everything up! First, I sat on top of the tent when it was laying down on the ground, then I pulled out the stakes on two sides while she was putting the poles up, and then I kept jumping in the tent when she was putting the rainfly up...muahaha, she was very proud, I could tell! :-D<br />

<br />
And again I quote "Stopped they must be; on this all depends"...who said this quote? If you guessed Yoda from Star Wars, you'd be correct! ;-)<br />
<br />
Alas, after seeing all of your pawesome posts about BarkWorld and the new Petco Star Wars collection, Domeek was inspired to stop by and check out their new stuff...that's when this happened!<br />

I'm soooooo embarrassed! :-/ The Yoda ears...really?! Urg! (<i>Hehe, this was the last time Domeek got the ears on me and managed to take a photo!</i>) For the record, Petco is giving away the Yoda ears for free when you buy anything from their Star Wars collection, Domeek didn't buy them (cause she knew I'd say "Hell no!"), hehehe!<br />

Most of the artwork in our house is dog or cat related (hahaha, I make sure of it), so when we saw this clean and simple typography image, Domeek and I got a little excited!<br />

If you're not in kindergarten or don't want the entire alphabet, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/WeaversofSouthsea?ref=l2-shopheader-name">WeaversofSouthsea</a> on Etsy also has each of the individual letters and dog breeds on their own print as well! :-D Me gusta!<br />

They will be focusing in on one shelter/rescue pet per state and guess what? They need more stories (mainly on the central and west coast)!! :-D Make sure you click on the link above and check out the project, then if you are interested in telling your story click on the Sign Up tab!<br />

I can't wait to hear all about their adventures and meet Maddie! <br />

<br />A Day In The Life Of A Goosehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05510210913376866908noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8970418964272671960.post-40240892345658871212013-08-27T21:22:00.000-07:002013-08-27T21:24:21.965-07:00Wordless Wednesday - Point IsabelHappy Wednesday Everyone!!<br />
<br />
So, this past weekend, Domeek took me to what can only be referred to as "Puppy Mecca" aka <a href="http://www.ebparks.org/parks/pt_isabel">Point Isabel Regional Shoreline</a>! We had heard about this magical place online, but had never ventured an hour North to see it for ourselves...that is, until Sunday! :-D<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.ebparks.org/Assets/files/parks/point_isabel/Point_Isabel_2250w_32c.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="317" src="http://www.ebparks.org/Assets/files/parks/point_isabel/Point_Isabel_2250w_32c.gif" title="" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
The park is a 23 acre, off leash, marsh land, sea front, non-enclosed area...and I was allowed to go off leash for the first time ever!!! Oh my dog, I couldn't believe that this place was real...the smells, sounds, dogs, people!!! I tell you, if you get the chance to visit...<b><i>YOU MUST</i></b>!!! :-D<br />
<br />
<i>But what Domeek really loved, was the fact that I behaved beautifully off leash! I didn't run off, I always kept an eye and ear on her, and always returned when she called, which means that we can do it again!! :-)</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1185885_10201217480653628_1727546957_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="300" src="https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1185885_10201217480653628_1727546957_n.jpg" title="" width="400" /></a></div>
<i><br /></i>
The park is in Richmond, so you can see (at least on a clear day) the beautiful San Francisco skyline.<br />
<br />
Before the leash came off...<br />

Whoa, I was exhausted after all that trekking, sniffing, and walking! Thankfully, there's a dog friendly cafe at the entrance (called the <a href="http://www.mudpuppys.com/#!point-isabel-dog-park/c1umh">Sit & Stay Cafe</a>), so we had a drink and sat for a bit! Aw, it was nice!<br />

Have a great rest of the day guys!<br />

<br />
Wowwee, I had the greatest time with cousin Pippi yesterday! We hoped on over to Petco just before lunch and there were already tons of dogs playing and walking around. Luckily Daly City was pretty cool, so the snow lasted a lot longer than if it was near my home.<br />

Thank you so much for all the wonderful comments and suggestions about camping, we're getting so excited!! I've already researched and discovered a campsite, which is just an hour and a half south of home, to try out for the first trip - great park with tons of dog friendly hikes and trails to follow!!<br />

<br />
<i>A couple of random things: </i><br />
<br />
I had such a wonderful time at the dog park last night; I got to meet up with a couple of my oldest friends (Rizzo, Buddy, and Ricco) and run around insanely! It was so much fun, it's just sad that the evenings are coming to a close earlier now...sniff...it was practically dark at 7:45! Aw, the perils of Fall!<br />
<br />
I've been loving reading all the blog posts and tweets about all my friends' experiences at BarkWorld.. It looks like such an pawesome conference! I can't wait to hear more!<br />
<br />
FYI, on Saturday, <a href="http://petco.com/">Petco</a> is going to be hosting a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/296126870530986/">Summer Snow Da</a>y at 8 different stores across the country. The stores are going to be giving away free puppy ice cream, Kong demonstrations, food samples, and will be having training demonstrations...along with...a temporary snow park for your pup!! OMD...I can't wait!! I'm so happy, one of the stores is only about 30 minutes north, so Domeek, Pippi, and me are going to go and have some fun in the snow! :-D Make sure to see if there's a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/296126870530986/">store</a> near you participating!<br />
<br />
<i>Camping!</i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://peanutonthetable.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/image-snoopy-and-linus.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="320" src="http://peanutonthetable.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/image-snoopy-and-linus.jpg" title="" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Ok, onto the fun stuff...Domeek and I have finally decided that we are going to start camping! I know, most of you will be saying, but you missed the summer! Pft, no worries, I can't stand the heat - Fall is a waaaay better season anyways! ;-)<br />
<br />
So, because we don't have any equipment and no one in our family actually camps, we have a couple of questions for all you camping fans!! :-D<br />
<br />
First off - <b>Tents</b>! We'd love to hear what tents and brands you've all been happy with! Currently we're looking at the <a href="http://www.coleman.com/product/sundomereg-4-tent/2000007827#.Uhb7IZKsiSo">Coleman Sundome</a> and the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Suisse-Sport-Yosemite-Person-Room/dp/B001UPU40K">Suisse Sport Yosemite</a>...both are in our budget, have pretty good reviews, are the right size/weight, and are readily available. Buuuut, if any of you have had issues or anything with them, we'd love to hear!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41NKY3mzxWL.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="320" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41NKY3mzxWL.jpg" title="" width="320" /></a><a href="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41WuAId2sRL._SY300_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="320" src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41WuAId2sRL._SY300_.jpg" title="" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Secondly - <b>Camp Stoves</b>! Ok, Domeek has absolutely No experience with these things! So we are running around blind! :-/ Hm! I like food...does anyone have any suggestions that would stop me from starving?! Should we use a single burner, double burner, match start...? The longest time we'd be camping would be a long weekend! Eeek!!<br />
<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4079/4850983055_013a8c38ab.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Freckles the Dog" border="0" height="261" src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4079/4850983055_013a8c38ab.jpg" title="" width="400" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i>Um, Noms!!! ;-)</i></td></tr>

<br />
Thirdly - <b>Tips/Suggestions/Randomness/Things You Wish You Knew </b>when it comes to beginning camping (in general)!<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><i>Muahaha, yes, I would sacrifice a child over moi! ;-)</i></td></tr>

<br />
Thanks so much in advance guys!! :-D We're looking forward to going, enjoying the great outdoors, hiking, and being one with nature soon!!!<br />

<br />
Whenever I see surfers, I automatically think of the Beach Boys and the 1960's...which is why I chose, <i>Surfin Safari </i>by the Beach Boys! Great music!!!<br />

Hip Hip Horray!! We made it to the top!!! :-D I had my doubts, but somewhere near the top, Domeek says that I turned into a mountain goat...then boom, we made it! Hehehe, getting string cheese at the top didn't hurt either! ;-)<br />
<br />
Thankfully the trip down was waaaaaaay shorter and easier than the way up (well, for me...Domeek says that the loose gravel was harder going down, but whatever!)! :-) Phew!<br />
<br />
After hiking we decided to take a leisurely strong along the beach...if you're a surfer and haven't made it to the Pacifica Beach, then you are seriously missing out guys! :-D There were probably over 100 surfers catching waves while we were there and all of them that we met were incredibly friendly, happy, and had pups themselves!!! It was pawesome!!<br />

I enjoy watching and judging the quality of surfing going on! ;-) After all, I'm a California pup!! Hehehe!<br />
<br />
All in all, I had the bestest day that a pup could ever ask for!!! :-D I hope you all did too!!<br />
<br />
Have a great day everyone!<br />
