Therapy Dog Team: Lucy & Poppy

Doggy Nanny had her surgery (all went well per the doctors), was released and went into Senior Care.  Once we verified that dogs were allowed for visits we loaded up the stroller and right over!

We have arrived.

We waited patiently to be directed to her room.

Seems suspicious!  You can't really see my eyes but just know they look suspicious!

 As soon as we arrived Momma let me out of the stroller and was going to grab my leash when I bolted off the stroller, out of the room and down the hall.  Momma had to chase me down and eventually tackled me retrieved me.  Momma says this is not therapy dog behavior.  What?!?! I am excited.  I want everyone to know I here!!!

I got put in a quick time out while momma caught her breath.

When she let me go  I gave Doggy Nanny lots of hugs and kisses.  Then I jumped over Doggy Nanny and up on the top of her bed just like I do on the recliners at home.  Momma said again this is not therapy dog behavior.  DRAT!

While I went for another time out Poppy went to see Doggy Nanny.  Doggy Nanny fussed with her har, made her wear her hat and had momma get a picture.  BOL!  Reason 15,354 why I don't wear clothes.

After a while I reached my calm.  I got on the foot of the bed and let Doggy Nanny scratch me and love on me.  You can see my tail just wagging wif excitement.

I did some digging and made myself a good nest while Doggy Nanny told the tale of her surgery.  It was a big surgery to redo her hip replacement.  They had to break her bone, put in pins and glue it all back together.  Ouchies!!!!!

Then the nurse came in to hand out meds.  We were respectful and sat quietly.

I kept my eye on her but didn't bark or growlie.  Momma gave me lots of praise and tooshie scratches for this!!!!

After the nurse left some one else came knocking.  It was grandpa!  Oh boy I was super excited!!!!  I have him lots of kisses and wags.  All my favorite peeps in one place.

After all the excitement this happened.  I got into my stroller all by myself....

...I had reached level tired and fell asleep.

We do ask for continued prayers for Doggy Nanny she has a long recovery ahead and she has been in a lot of pain.  After we left we found out they are not properly caring for our Doggy Nanny and we demanded she be moved.  Grandpa told 'em how cows eat cabbage....or something like that and got the process started.  I told him I will send Poppy in for back up if needed.  Shes a scrappy lil bugger.

Momma's Teaching Me To Work Scents

Well we are still at a stand still on my trick title. 

I do not like the hoop, I do not like my kennel (on command anyways) and momma tried to put me through a tunnel...yea that aint happenin'! 

So we are going to switch gears and I am going to start working scents.  If I like it I will be rallying with Lucy in 2020 at the OTCWF.  The positives I have found are there is no scary objects to go inside of, there is no handling of my paws and best of all no need for other humans to touch me.  :)  Sounds like the sport for me.

We started slowly.  2 containers with scent and treats pre-loaded in one.  #yum

Lets  see here....treat is in this one.  I choose it.

Now its over heres.

ok...no problem.

Must get last crumb!!!

That was fun.

Ouch It's a Scorcher! - Walkee Paws Review

Here in North Texas we have truly been in the dog days of summer with several 100 degree days in a row.  This leads to the sidewalks and driveways are sizzling hot.  Much too hot for tiny paws.

Thankfully I have a set of Walkee Paws to help protect my feets from the heats.

Lets go for a stroll shall we?!?!?

5 Seconds and 1 pee later...MOMMA IM HOT!

I wanna go back inside now.  Even though I am hot my feet are the perfect temperature.

In review not only are Walkee Paws great for wet weather they double as great protection from hot pavement too.  They are mulitfunctional, stylish and easy to wear.  Walkee Paws you have created an incredible product and we have you 8 paws up from Life with Lucy and Poppy Blog.

Smooches,

Labor Day Wif Aunt Gracie

We spent Labor Day wif Aunt Gracie.  She was so excited to have us over her tail never stopped wagging.  <3 you!!!! 

The first thing I did was hit my favorite spot on the couch. 

Right there is the spot.

Oh it feels so good to rub my head here. 

Quick shake off.  So refreshing!

Now for a little Cove St TV. 

We played outside, took photos, did some keep away with toys.  It was awesome.  On the way home the temps reached 95 with feels like temps of 103.  This is how Lucy rode home.   Nose in the vent with the ac blasting.  If she were small enough I think she would have crawled inside.

Lil' Archies Review and GIVEAWAYS

Have you all heard about Lil' Archies?  If not you have to read our review!  Lil' Archies is the Eco-forward poop bag brand.  Its ok to talk about, every puppy poops.  Since every puppy poops you might as well as do your part to help protect the planet.  And Lil' Archies is doing just that.  

Their bags are 9 by 13 inches, made from resin derived from plant starches, are 100% compostable, are made with less packaging materials (no plastic or cardboard spools) and are easy tear off the roll.  Which is why your hooman will love them.  Knowing that there are far less plastic bags polluting the land and waterways will make any pup feel like the goodest boi or goodest gurl in the whole wide world!  

Lil' Archies offers an array of savings on their products.  You can purchase an individual box (each box contains 4 rolls of 20 bags for a total of 80 bags) for $10.94.  If you order more than one box you will save up to 36% and if you do a monthly subscription you save an additional 5% on top of that!  With a 6 box order that would only be $39.92 after savings.  

We have been using Lil' Archies for 2 weeks now and they are PAWsome!  No leaks, no tears, no complaints at all in fact. And they weren't kidding on the easy tear claim.  One tug and that bag is off the roll and ready to use.   Its the little things that make momma happy especially since she has 2 leashes to keep hold of and 2 rambunctious pups.

The holder is just as fantastic as the bags themselves.  It is lightweight, compact and is available in multiple fashion colors.  It easily attaches to any leash with the lobster clip, the zipper is strong, and the bags don't get caught/snagged when unrolling.  Momma has tried many different ones and nothing compares to the quality/ease of use as the ones from Lil Archies. 

When a roll is done there is no pesky spool to mess with just unzip the holder and slip in a new set of bags.  I can't tell you how many times momma has done laundry and found those plastic spools in her pant pockets.  #annoying 

Now the big announcement you have been waiting for!!!!  The GIVEAWAYS!  Yes with an s, meaning multiple!!!!   Lil' Archies was so kind to do a partnership with our blog and offer 3 of  readers a box of bags with an exclusive bag holder!  Seriously its adorable and Lil' Archies is PAWSOME!!!!!

To win all you have to do is like our IG photo, like @lifewithlucynpoppy on IG, like @lilarchies on IG and tag 3 furiends on our giveaway post.  The 3 winners will be chosen at random on 9-9-2019.  This is the official photo to like for the giveaway post.
