Day 3 - Pet Pals 6th Annual 19 Days of Christmas Giveaways

Baby it is cold outside. 

We better giveaway something that will help you warm up. That is, will help you warm up if you put something warm inside of it. 

Before Day 3 item is posted, I (Pet Pal Keli) have to show you my helper. A couple months back, there was a loss in a family and this kitty kat needed a new home. This sweet girl was rescued from a shelter and there was no way we could see her go back there, so Pet Pal Keli's family took her in no questions asked. Puck the Kitty is her name. She thinks she is helping me out sooooo much by looking at me with those big blues while sitting on my.................keyboard! We LOVE her dearly (even though she does get very sassy, some call it catitude)!

Ok back to the giveaway! Take a look at what Pet Pals is giving away for Day 3! This is a 16 ounce thermal insulated, temperature retention, 100% stainless steel inside and out mug that says, "LIVE, LOVE, BARK" on both sides! Really, it is neat! Was purchased at Lewis in Sioux Falls, they have (or had) so many neat mugs there, was hard to choose. I think I stood there by the display for over 15 minutes trying to decided, LOL! Since I couldn't decided between this one and another one, I bought both. So make sure you stayed tuned to the giveaways!

Clothing or No Clothing

It is that time of year where the temperatures will continue fall and the beautiful snow will appear. To be honest, I am really excited to go make snow angles and play in the snow with my pet kids and pet clients. Seeing little dogs pounce through the snow, dogs putting their nose under the snow and throwing it up to catch it, and the watching the puppies see/feel the snow for the first time, are just a couple of things that make me smile.

The question some have with this type of weather is, clothing or no clothing? If you do or if you are thinking about it, my oh my there are a ton of choices. Choices ranging from colors, sizes, one piece or two, holiday wear, seasonal wear, cotton, polyester, fleece (just to name a few). Yes, I guess it is very similar to clothing choices for humans. Below are just a couple of examples of dog clothing....

There are businesses in Sioux Falls that sell dog clothing: Your Pet Stop, PetSmart, PetCo.

There are many sites to order clothing from. The top three internet sites when searching for doggie clothing is:  www.amazon.com (free shipping if you have amazon prime, 2 month free trial period), www.baxterboo.com, and http://www.doggievogue.com.

Or do you have that small little pet kid and you cannot find clothing to fit, try this! Inexpensive and easy!!!

So is it, Clothing or No Clothing for your pet kid(s)?!
