Frankly, We’re Woofing for Jones

May 12, 2016 By Jodi

I look for many things when it comes to treats for my dogs.

  • Where it’s made
  • How many ingredients are in it
  • WHAT the ingredients are
  • Who makes it.

Believe it or not, those things are all factors. I could find a treat that’s made in the US, has two limited ingredients such as duck and pea flour and if it’s manufactured by a company I don’t trust, I will pass that treat up.

Oh yes I will.

Luckily for me, Jones Natural Chews meets all the requirements I look for in a treat.

So when my friend Flea asked me to review Jones’ new treat, the Frankenwoofer, I jumped at the chance. First because it’s made right here in the good ole’ US of A. Second because Jones’ is a family owned and operated business. And third because I can pronounce all the ingredients in this treat. (Except for  tocopherols…does ANYONE know how to pronounce tocopherols? If so,  please spell it out for me in the comments.)

Here’s what the treat looks like.

It's a hot...it's a burger! No, it's Jones' Natural Chews Frankenwoofer.

It’s a hotdog…it’s a burger! No, it’s Jones’ Natural Chews Frankenwoofer.

Basically it’s a beef patty wrapped around a Rocky’s Roller and baked. It’s doggie Nirvana.

And here are the ingredients: Beef Woofer 100% beef; Chicken Sausage (a.k.a. Rocky’s Rollers) – chicken, rye flour, glycerin, brown sugar, salt, liquid smoke flavoring, natural mixed tocopherols (preservative), rosemary extract in a collagen casing.

One of the things I love is the total versatility of this treat.

I mean, as far as treats go, it stands alone. It’s a ‘hot dog’ and a ‘hamburg’ all rolled into one. What dog wouldn’t want that?

Me.

Me. I wouldn’t want a treat like that! Oh, who the hell am I kidding? Yes, yes I would. Give me the freaking treat.

AND if you get creative, you can make three treats out of one by cutting the ends off and giving your dog the woofer part. Then later on, give them the ends. You look like a total hero to your dog.

You're no HERO! You defiled a treat! WHAT is WRONG with you?

You’re no HERO! You defiled a treat! WHAT is WRONG with you?

OR if you’re super creative, you can cut the ends off and then snip them into little treats and use them for training purposes.

Which is what I did.

Then I used the little snips and put them in the treat jar I keep by the back door. In a future post, I’ll show you WHY those treats are by the back door, but until then, remember, a dog’s nose knows Jones.

It's three treats in one! Or one totally scrumptious treat.

But how do the dogs like it? Let’s see if I can get a picture.

Oh my, I'm just not sure where to start.

Oh my, I’m just not sure where to start.

Sampson was a good boy and let me get a nice shot in.

Wait? WHAT? That's a treat right there! A Frankenwoofer by JONES!

Wait? WHAT? That’s a treat right there! A Frankenwoofer by JONES!

I had to be quick with Delilah, she hasn’t quite gotten her Wait down yet, especially when it comes to yummy treats.

There might be a crumb here somewhere.

Both dogs licked the floor. (I KNEW I should have made them eat them on towels!)

We love the tender taffy from Jones, but the Frankwoofer might just be our new favorite.

How about you? Does your dog have a favorite treat?

A Little Slice of Heaven

May 10, 2016 By Jodi

With the sun rising earlier, there are some mornings when Delilah can coax me up into the woods.  Most week days I try and stay out of the woods because of time constraints, but some days, I can’t help it.

Of course, I’m game on any weekend to hit my little slice of heaven.

I mean, when you walk out your door and look up the hill and see this…

fdlkfjd;

The woods, the woods are calling.

Your heart can’t help but want to follow.

I can see the sun is rising, ready to light the world for the day.

Golden rays guide my way

Golden rays guide my way.

Just before I crest the hill to view the splendor, I stop to enjoy the moment. I hope you enjoy it too.

(Turn your volume up) 🙂

 

It’s so beautiful and peaceful, a perfect way to start the day.

How about you? Where’s your little slice of heaven?

You Make Me Smile – May 8, 2016

May 8, 2016 By Jodi

Before I share today’s You Make Me Smile, I’d like to take a moment to wish all of you moms, a very happy Mother’s Day.

Whether your baby is two legged or four, furry, feathered or finned, celebrate the beauty that is you and give yourself a giant pat on the back!

You Make Me Smile

You make me smile, (or laugh), the sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do on a daily basis that brings a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.

Sampson, the way you keep on eye on me when you know I’m getting ready to leave you….

Canine Peek-a-Boo

You make me smile.

So it kind of makes me a wee bit sad too. Because he does this on the weekend when he sees me getting ready to go out and run errands. As he’s aged, he’s developed some separation issues, so when he knows I’m leaving, he follows me around.

Yesterday he followed from the living room, to the bathroom, to the bedroom and back to the living room again. Sort of like a little lost puppy.

What do your pets do when they know you’re leaving?
