Hellllloooo, furfriends! We’ve been quiet the past few weeks enjoying our annual blog break and semi-offline family holiday time. Farewell to the unusual year that …
Happy howlidays, furfriends! 🎁 Pets are part of the family and part of the festive fun for holidays and special occasions. DIY dog-friendly holiday ideas. DIYs, treats, recipes, freebies, and other very special celebration posts for very special pets.
Woofs from New Zealand! Some occasions may not align with your home country so don’t be surprised if posting dates seem a little strange sometimes. Having grown up in Canada in a family with Irish roots, I have a soft spot for occasions like St. Patrick’s Day, Thanksgiving (not celebrated here), and Halloween (growing in popularity here). You’ll see the occasional treat or DIY sneak in for other non-Kiwi occasions as well. We take requests for future posts, and have created dog-friendly DIYs for holidays and occasions we don’t celebrate ourselves. We can’t turn every special request into a scheduled post due to planning and other constraints, but will try to help with ideas where we can!
