Benny is Five

Last Thursday, Benny turned five and Brian turned another year older as well. I’m not sure how it happened; to say time has flown is an understatement. But the past 4.5 years with Benny (we adopted him when he was around five months old) have exceeded our expectations in every way. He makes us so happy! To celebrate, we had a fun family day and I am just so smitten by these two. This was taken after I served up breakfast in bed. (Benny even had a scrambled egg in his bed):)

A Dog’s Carbon Pawprint

Gearing up for Earth Day? We sure are!

You’ve probably already considered the many ways you can reduce your carbon footprint, but have you thought about your dog’s carbon pawprint? Yep, even man’s best friend can do his part in making our world a little greener.

While your dog may need you to make his green choices for him, he certainly has something to contribute. Practical ways to shrink your dog’s carbon pawprint include using eco-friendly dog accessories for walks or natural, organic shampoos for bath times. If your pet store doesn’t have eco-friendly products, you can find some great ones online at Earth Dog, a local business right here in Brentwood.

Want to get a little bit more creative for Earth Day? Try making homemade dog food and treats for your dog! Two Dog Press has some organic recipes you might like to try, including one for Peanut Butter Bones.

In terms of staying green, also, be sure to reuse leashes, collars, and other dog accessories – those can add up quick. And, of course, always spay or neuter your dog.

Be sure to grab your eco-friendly dog and head out to Centennial Park this Saturday, April 23rd, to celebrate Earth Day with the community! There will be live music, activities for all ages, and a lot food.  You may also want to visit Living Well Events to learn more about sustainable event planning you do here in Nashville.

Australian Shepherds – Dog Photographer Nashville

Australian Shepherds are really fantastic dogs. Smart, loyal, sweet and very dog-like (as in man’s best friend). Callie and Shelby definitely uphold this breed! They were spunky and just so loving during our session. Shelby is having a kidney removed today, and I am so glad the timing worked out to photograph these two pups together before her surgery. Ken and Bev, their dog parents, were so fun to work with. Thanks for choosing me! Enjoy the sneak peek.

A dog family photo! Isn’t their garden lovely? This is such a great time of year for sessions with everything in bloom and the nice weather.

And Shelby hanging out in the afternoon light. Be brave today!

Keep Your Dog Safe This Spring

Spring is finally in bloom! Everything is green and sprouting to life. And while it’s a welcome reprieve from the cold, miserable weather of winter, dog owners should be aware of the potential danger this blooming plant life could pose to their dog.

On their website, the ASPCA lists over 300 different types of plants and flowers that are considered poisonous for dogs to ingest. These plants include: aloe, apple trees, azaleas, daisies, daffodils, and many other plant life that is common in neighborhoods and freshly landscaped yards. While many of these plants and flowers are popular or pretty to look at, they can make a dog ill or ultimately be fatal.

In order to dog-proof your yard, please see the ASPCA’s full list of toxic plants and check your gardens for plants and flowers that may be threatening to your canine friends. Also, be aware of the types of flowers that you bring inside your home that may be toxic and within your dog’s reach.

You may also want to check the plant life growing in your local dog park and don’t be shy about sharing this information with fellow dog owners. In this situation, knowledge really is power, and we all want to have a safe and happy spring for us and our dogs!

Being aware of plants that are toxic to your dogs is important for all pet owners to keep their dog’s safe! Thank you for sharing this article and great resource. Another way you can protect your pet’s health is by picking up after them! Unattended pet waste left on the streets flows untreated into our local waterways and ocean, causing pollution.
