Dog Tie one on with a neck tie that’s gone to the dogs
They say that a dog is man’s best friend.
I disagree. I believe that a dog is a woman’s best friend for the majority of the time, unless the man has bacon in his pocket.
Next Friday is National Bring Your Dog to Work Day, so I’m going to make sure my sensational Scotty, Madison, makes a good first impression on the boss with this cool Poochie Dog Tie from Fetch Dog.
Maybe she’ll even get a temp job out of it. She can fetch just about anything.

Puppy Tweets make a sweet puppy tweet (I mean treat) for your dog
I had to take my dog to the vet this weekend.
My one sick dog had been scratching uncontrollably and ripping out colossal clumps of fur due to allergies and a bacterial infection. Fortunately, the scratching has ceased thanks to a few strong petscriptions. Unfortunately, the antibiotics and steroids she’s on have caused her to drink more… and pee more.
This doesn’t bode well while she’s home alone during my 9 hour work day.
If only she could tweet me:
My Dog: I need to pee. Stat.@BestDogMomEvR
Me: I’ll be home in 15 minutes. Hold it.@ZoeyK9
My Dog: Yeah, good luck with that.@BestDogMomEvR
Oh wait, now she can totally jump on the Twitter train, thanks to the new innovative and very pupular Puppy Tweets social networking device from X-treme Geek that is slowly sweeping the dog nation.
All the cool dogs at the dog park are doing it. = )

Pet portraits from photos - Turn a photo of your pet into a custom portrait
Something I’ve noticed recently amongst dog owners is that every pup parent thinks their dog is the cutest dog at the dog park.
Whether they own a doberman with a drooling problem, a mastiff with a massive underbite or a pug with a rather fugly face, they firmly believe that their precious canine is the most adorable mutt ever to tinkle on a fire hydrant.
Now you can celebrate and immortalize that face that only a pet owner could love. Treat yourself and man’s best friend to a piece of custom artwork that captures your dog’s likeness to a t (as in terrier) with Luna Toons Custom Pet Portraits from In the Company of Dogs.
Best of all, your pooch doesn’t even need to pose, sit, stay or heel for this pawtrait.

Craft blocks – KraftyBlok glass blocks for endless crafting possibilities
I’m crafty.
Allow me to clarify. I am not by any stretch of the imagination considered a deceitful, underhanded, cunning or sly person. I am crafty in the literal arts and crafts sense of the word. I paint, I Photoshop, I stencil, I sew, I quilt. If you can think it, I can craft it.
I didn’t score my Creative Director title for being anti-crafty.
I’ve been working diligently on my granddaughter’s quilt that will be completed any day now, so I’ll need a new crafting project to keep my idle hands busy. Thankfully, I just found a new crafting wonder that will keep me occupied for hours on end – the KraftyBlok craft block from Delphi Glass.

Bowel support for when your bowels become irritable during Thanksgiving
I’m a healthy eater 364 days of the year but on Thanksgiving Day, all of my healthy eating habits go out the window.
Turkey, yams, white meat, dark meat, thick gravy, cranberry relish, greenbean casserole, buttermilk biscuits, creamed corn, 5 kinds of pie… if it’s on the table, it’s going in my stomach.
Fast forward a half hour later, and my bowels will begin to seek their revenge. I don’t want to have to regret a single bite of holiday spread, so this year I’m arming myself with Bowel EZ Bowel Support from ProHealth.
This is going to be the best Thanksgiving ever…

Herbal stress remedy with Tao strength stress relief in a bottle
Stress is a many unsplendored thing.
Yes, I realize that unsplendored isn’t technically a word, but I’m not going to stress about it. Although I do seem to stress over everything else in my life. Like any other woman of the new millenium, I stress over the big things and the little things…from my kids and their health to my job, meeting deadlines at the end of the month and my cat George. With every day that goes by, I find myself sweating over the small stuff and crying out “Calgon, take me away!”
Sadly, Calgon bubbles don’t live up to the hype and I don’t have a genie in a bottle that will grant my wish for stress free satisfaction, but I do have Tao in a Bottle – the Herbal Stress Remedy from Ron Teeguarden’s Dragon Herbs that totally rubs me the right way.

All Day Energy Greens for maximum energy all day, every day
When it comes to favorite comic strip heroes, Popeye the Sailor Man is right up there with Wolverine. From those killer forearms to that wicked anchor tattoo and cackle of a laugh, I’ve always wished that I had at least an ounce of Popeye’s superhuman strength…the only problem? I don’t like spinach. Actually, I hates it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s super packed with nutrients, iron and things that do a body good, but when it comes to dinner, I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.
I may not be a big veggie man, but now I can get all of my fortified vitamins and minerals with a canister of All Day Energy Greens from the Institute for Vibrant Living.
My Pappy would be so proud.
