Giveaway: Halo Night at the Oscars Goodies Grab Bag!
When I was in college, I volunteered one night at a Grammys gifting suite. As a peon, I wore my one nice dress and handed bags full of ridiculously extravagant presents to celebrities and/or celebrity assistants. In return, I got....well, to say that I did it, I guess. Swag has gotten even more crazy in the ensuing years. Out of control, even. Compared to the Grammys, the Oscars are even more insane- the "Everybody Wins at the Oscars" bag given to the non winning nominees in the top 5 ... Read more »

Naughty or Nice Giveaway 1: Motorola WiFi Pet Monitor!

Catch live action, record video and take snapshots while controlling the camera with Remote Pan, Tilt and Digital Zoom. Home ... Read more »
A Dog’s Holiday Wishlist
One of my favorite holiday traditions is going over to Fox5 News and doing a bit with Rancho Coastal Humane Society talking about the dogs' holiday wishes (next to being adopted, of course.) Just me, Santa, and a bunch of adorable dogs all doing our best to avoid any sort of Ron Burgundy stereotypes about San Diego programming. Here's the segment with the 6 adorable pups. :) It's always hard to pick just 6 items, but here is what we presented this year: 1. The ThunderShirt ... Read more »
Back to School Giveaway: Busy Treats Bag
Remember that Staples back to school commercial, the one where the dad was riding a cart around the store to "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year?" That was me. The sad, dejected faces dragging around behind him? Not my kids. They like school. Brody, on the other hand...Brody is sad. He's lost his summertime playmates to the double whammy of school, plus homework and extracurricular activities. Having me around is OK, but it's not the same as the kids. And if your dog is anything like ... Read more »
Giveaway Tuesday: Designer dog beds from PetDreams.com!
Brody's dog bed was turning into a sad and sorry thing, a tattered vestige that much like Linus's blanket, he didn't want to part with despite its obvious state of despair. I'd try to hide it, and he would go drag it out of the closet and back to the bedroom. Every time I thought about throwing it out, he'd follow me with such a concerned look that I couldn't bring myself to toss it, despite it being a bed only in the most academic of senses by this point. So when PetDreams.com, a ... Read more »
Giveaway Tuesday: Goo Gut Rescue!
I think many of you will remember the post and giveaway we did a few months back with Healthy Goo, a product designed to help pets with allergic disease. The response was great and it's clear there is a huge need for more options for people to manage their pet's allergic disease. With their success, the people at Goo are busily developing new products to help pets live long and well. I'm happy today to have another giveaway and share a little about the latest product, Goo Gut ... Read more »
Giveaway: Lele Pets Gift Certificate!
OK, what's today, the 19th? So as you read this, I should be at the base of Mt. Meru, walking through rain forests, passing a massive fig tree, and looking out for marauding buffalo. I won't be gasping for air and retching from altitude sickness for two more days. Regardless, I am there are you are here, and to thank you for checking in I have a wonderful giveaway today from LeLe Pets! If you're an addict like I am to sites like Gilt or the Clymb, you know these daily deal sites can be ... Read more »
Giveaway Tuesday: Eye Charts for Dogs and Cats from Local Paper Studio
Eye exams for animals are a little different than they are for people. Sure, you can examine the physical structures of the eye and evaluate its anatomic vigor, but figuring out just how well your pet sees is a little more tricky. We can't exactly sit them in front of one of those big eyeglass flippy things (I'm sure they have a name, but I never bothered to ask) and get the dog to tell us which is better: This, or....THIS? Nonetheless, the ubiquitous eye chart is synonymous with the ... Read more »
