Twelve Beds of Christmas charity auction for the Toronto Humane Society

Last night HM attended the 2nd Annual, Twelve Beds of Christmas set up by local pet boutique, Timmie Doggie Outfitters.

The owners, Paul and George got some great artists and designers to create 12 beds to auction off for the Toronto Humane Society! We LOVE Timmie's, and got there at least once a week for some yummy treats! Here are some of the pawesome beds from last night!

Busy Days


Not much is going on these days, I went hiking with Denali and Starr..but still waiting for HM to download pics from the camera. Agility was pretty awesome this week, we are doing more sequencing and HM is trying to figure out good positioning because apparently I'm a pretty fast dog! I spent the night on Monday with my human grandpawrents, and will be back to visit on the weekend! My human Gramma is PAWESOME!! She certainly spoils me with nice Gramma goodies and I get to sleep in her bed under the duvet!! Whooo-hoo!!! I love watching Wheel of Fortune with my human Grandpa too. He loves that show! BOL!

Hope you all are having a pawesome week!!!

2 Wild and Crazy Manchesters!

Are we lady killers or what??!!! Me and my pal Bronson had a fun playdate at the dog park today! It was a bit chilly, and while HM was negligent and FORGOT my coat, Bronson was rockin' his. We both have Chilly Dogs coats! (They're great!)

I've got natural ears and Bronson has cropped ears


Bronson still has his rosettes on his chest...mine faded away

Another good shot of our ears! Bronson has great thumbprint markings
on his front paws..mine aren't very clear

US Pups: Don't Forget To Vote!


If it were up to me, my pal Gibbon (aka Gibby Butt) would be on the ballot for this election! Some pup pals and I joked around and had little posters done up for him!

GIBBON - THE BUTT YOU CAN BELIEVE IN!!!

We'd all be better if this Min Pin was in the White House - more off leash parks - no more Breed Specific Legislation - less work hours so all the pawrents could spend more time with us!!! BOL!

But in this historic day in the US, humans...make your voice heard - get out and VOTE!!

Dog Sport Lover?

Check out the latest keychains HM has made! Disc Dog, Flyball and Agility!!



All can be found in her Etsy shop!!

Etsy Love: Lodi and Lewi

Hey pups, I'm starting a new feature here: Etsy Love! Since HM has signed up on this pawesome site, we thought we'd share some other FURTASTIC pet-related shops!

First up: Lodi and Lewi They categorize themselves as a shop with dog and people gear! And what did HM buy from them? PEOPLE GEAR!! Hrmpf. But I admit, HM needs nice things too once in a while!

Here's their Key Loop. It's for human keys and fits around the wrist for quick walks to the park without needing a purse! The colours are so vibrant (which as you know HM loves things that POP!) Your purchase is carefully crafted and packaged so nicely - it's the added touch that HM really appreciated when she got hers in the mail.

They also sell pawesome collars and matching leashes. Their inspiration? Lodi and Lewi of course! Two beautiful Weimaraners!

So please take a moment and visit their shop and tell them Simba sent you!
