Cami has been so bummed since her knee surgery recovery and all the antibiotics she took wiped out the good and bad bacteria. I found the best thing for her! Probiotic Fro Yo from Bear and Rat!

Niko and I went to Whole Foods today and picked this up for Cami!

The Bear & The Rat: Cool Treats for Dogs makes gut health for dogs uncomplicated, and it is exactly perfect for summer. First, the cool treats are made with a handful of human-grade ingredients & they are healthful for dogs. With one serving of In Clover’s Optagest (organic prebiotics & four plant-based digestive enzymes), the cups are amazing for healthy stools & less gas. One cup a day will also help dogs absorb their meals better.

It’s fun. The Bear & The Rat celebrates birthdays, gotcha days & has a motto that “everyday’s a pawty,” because when you’re a spoiled dog, it totally is!

Here’s how to throw a birthday-gotcha day-block party for your dog. Create a Frozen Yogurt Bar. Put several toppings out in colorful bowls — jerky, crunchy treats, freeze dried bits, sardines, etc. and label each one, so the humans know what’s what. Think visually. If you have a cake stand, bring it out so that you have varying heights, perfect for those Instagrammable photos. Add a bright tablecloth, hats for pups & humans, streamers. Don’t forget to have frozen yogurt for humans, so that everyone is able to celebrate together.

We had lots of time and a chance to try Plant Therapy’s Pup and Pony essential oils We have diluted some of these with sweet almond oil so that we can apply it to Cami’s belly and neck for for relaxation. NEW pup-friendly essential oils from Plant Therapy. 

For those doggies scared of fireworks or siriens , Confident K9 blend promotes relaxation and soothes worry, and it can be used for behavior issues ranging from excessive barking and shaking to chewing on your belongings.

You can apply it in these areas or use a diffuser! This is a felt diffuser that clips onto a collar or harness and it’s so pretty!

Your home is your most valuable asset, and it is something to be proud of – it’s where you can create the rules and maintain each room with a sense of pride. When we move, there is often so much to worry about that any structural or decorative problems with our home will be overlooked in our haste to unpack the boxes and get the chance to sit down and relax in our new property. Once you have settled in, or if you have been living in the same décor for over a decade, it is time to start thinking about how to renovate your home. This article gives some pointer about how and where to start.

Kitchen

The kitchen is the heart of your home – a room where you can create a beautiful space for family and visitors alike. A charming kitchen will have you brimming with pride to invite people over – or just to spend your Saturday afternoons baking treats with the radio on. There are many ways that you can renovate your kitchen, but before anything else, you should start by figuring out how you can make the space as social as possible.

Traditional kitchens were made to be very small, with only one family member cooking and the family eating in a separate room. It is possible your kitchen still maintains this design, without much room for social interaction and relaxation. If this is the case, it is worth knocking down walls to make your kitchen and living area open-plan so that everyone can relax and cook together.

In order to make a friendly and social kitchen, it is worth considering installing a kitchen island to remove a sense of formality – this will give you extra space for when you are cooking a big meal, too. The focus on the room, however, should be a large kitchen table where the children can do their homework, and you can enjoy a morning cup of coffee appreciating the quiet hum of family life together.

Disused Spaces

Is there a room that is just used to store junk and sports equipment? That room could be repurposed as a spare bedroom, office space, or a place to enjoy hobbies. Turning unused space into a spare room can be extremely lucrative in the rise of rental properties across the globe.

If you don’t mind sharing your home with others, you could boost your income every month by letting someone stay at your house. If you don’t like the idea of sharing a bathroom or kitchen with someone you don’t know, it could be worth converting your basement into a self-contained apartment, or you could transform a stable or shed into a modern space for guests to stay.

It is worth investing in all the modern technology that twenty-first-century life demands if you are creating a space to rent out. This is a basic requirement for many home rentals – in addition to contemporary design and a functioning kitchenette, ensure WiFi is provided – and you can even consider smart-home controls, too.

Windows

There is nothing more irritating than loud noise coming in from the street. When you first moved in, perhaps you were able to ignore this,but now that gradual irritation may have started to affect your night’s sleep.

You can search for window companies ‘near me’ online to find a company that will replace your windows and help instill an ambiance of calm into your home. It is imperative that you install good quality windows because old windows can be very wasteful when expensive heating (or cool air from your air conditioning) is lost through them, in addition to the problems you may experience with sounds from the street.

Bathroom

Trends for bathrooms are constantly evolving, and it’s worth refurbishing your bathroom with a simple and classic décor style in mind. Do not be distracted by bathroom tech fads or gadgets that will look outdated in a few years and cost a lot more than a simple bathroom would. When you are refurbishing your bathroom it is important to be realistic about the future. It is essential to ask yourself the question: is your bathroom suitable for an older person?

If you are looking to sell your property in the next few years, it is important to think about what other people would like in their bathroom. Most people find a bathtub is rarely used and consumes a lot of water, therefore making bills extremely expensive. It is also not worth it to buy the most expensive shower and sink if you are going to sell the house soon.

There are a few simple things that can be done to renovate a home from being tired and dreary to contemporary and comfortable. Look around your house and see what you think can be improved and renovated to help make your home feel brand new again.
