Today we’re joining up with our friends over at 2 Brown Dawgs, for This ‘N That Thursday, because some days you have a little of this or a little of that.

Today I have this:
Spring is here and all the dogs are getting walked.
Well maybe it only feels that way because I’m continuously dodging people and their dogs on our walks. I only have one question. Where the hell have you people been the last five months?
‘Cause I didn’t see you out on the trails rain, sleet or snow like I was.
Just sayin’.
Off my soap box now.
Have you heard the news? There’s a big party this month celebrating Jeffie’s birthday on the Talking Dogs Blog. There are drawings and prizes all month long.
The first drawing was for a pair of earrings and a Skinneeez Big Bite dog toy and we won!! Guess what came yesterday?
I just have to share with you how wonderful this package was. Beginning with the tissue paper. Look, it’s puppy paws!
The earrings were in their own little box, tied with a red bow. You can tell by the carefully constructed packaging just how beautiful the jewelry is going to be.
I’ve seen the photos on Sue’s website, heck I drool over most of the Lab pieces at least once a week, I was still blown away by the beauty of the earrings. The colors are vibrant and the craftsmanship of the silver is flawless.
And yes, I will be wearing them at BlogPaws! 🙂
After admiring the earrings for a few minutes, I moved on to the Skinneeez Big Bite toy.
Truthfully it was stuffed with an empty bottle and the crinkling and crunching as I removed the tags was driving Delilah insane, I couldn’t give it to her fast enough. In fact at one point, she jumped up and tried to take it from me. 🙂
She was so happy to get the toy and spent a good half hour working at it, before I took it away. At which point, the bottle was flat but she hadn’t managed to get inside the toy. That’s a pretty sturdy toy, if it’s Delilah proof.
I did shoot a little video of her working her magic on the toy, but decided to spare you the noise. 😉
That’s a wrap for This ‘N That Thursday Blog Hop hosted by our friends at 2 Brown Dawgs. Thank you 2 Brown Dawgs!
Wow those earrings are cool. Glad Delilah had a great time with her toy. Have a terrific Thursday.
Best wishes Molly
Very Nice! I love playing with crackle toys too. Drives Mom nutty….more than she is already!
What great winnings! I love sock monkey, the earings are fabulous! Delilah looks like she loves the new toy.
WE love crinkle toys…. and when the crinkles stop… you can put a NEW bottle in there.. at least you can in the three that WE have.
Those are darling earrings…
Love the earrings! They are just too cute!
And the toy has survived Delilah, you say? I have to get one for Ducky! You’ve seen what she does to the Kong Wubbas! And one for Shadow, too, cuz she’s kinda rough on toys too.
Time to take the girls outside for Callie’s walk & a potty break and then back to studying.
The winter days of having the outside all to yourself in bad weather are probably over. Isn’t there something about “sunshine soldiers and dog walkers”?
Those earrings are so cute! The fair weather walkers . . . what do their poor dogs do all winter? Sissies!
Those earrings are ADORABLE!!! So I’ll be looking for your earrings at BlogPaws? 😉
Thanks so much for participating in TNT! Congrats on the cool prizes. The earrings are very cute. 🙂
Those earrings crack me up!
Lovely earrings! Interesting to find one of these toys that survives dogs 😉
Congrats on winning those adorable earrings…I did try one of those “bottle toys” but realized that the ‘crunching’ sound was worse than squeakers so I passed it on to a friend with a less enthusiastic chewer 🙂
Cool stuff! As for your soapbox, it is the same here…for about a month every spring we see dogs out being walked all over the place and we wonder where they all come from but then the fun wears off and we won’t see them again until next spring…so sad…we need walking all year long, not just for a few weeks in the spring. We are lucky to have a mom that loves to be out with us!
What a great win Jodi. I’m sorry but the packaging for the book you just won from my site won’t nearly be as nice. LOL!
Hi Y’all!
What a cute toy!
Y’all come by now,
Hawk aka BrownDog
First off the earrings are so cute. Second, we’ve seen the same four people and their dogs all winter–now, suddenly—dogwalkers are everywhere–except when it rains! LOL
OMG those earring! Gorgeous – I love them! Sock monkies are soooo cute. L.O.V.E. Sue really does such gorgeous work.
Kolchak sure does love those Skineez toys with out the fluffing. Felix thinks they’re a rip off though. He won’t even touch them.
Great prizes, I love those earrings, too cute! Delilah is in heaven 🙂
The one day I take off from social media and reading blogs… and I miss THIS! Thank you so much for the wonderful shout-out! I really am delighted you’re pleased with your prizes and I love your photos 🙂 BIG THANKS! Have to stop now, I can feel my head swelling into the “big head.” 😉
Oh! When Delilah is driving you nutso with that crackling? Just take the bottle out. Our dogs love ’em that way, too. Excellent for giving death shakes. lol
Cute earrings!
The people in my neighbourhood are coming out of hybernation as well. Kind of frustrating – i sometimes feel like, ‘hey, you only get to come into *my* park on nice days if you spend an equal number of terrible days out in the park!’ I can’t even imagine dealing with Gwynn if he didn’t get a decent number of good walks throughout the less pleasant weather.
