TT: Best Bully Sticks Treat Review and Giveaway


Happy Tuesday Everyone! I'm pleased to introduce two delicious treats: Best Bully Sticks Beef Puffs and Himalayan Gold Large Chew.


Best Bully Sticks Beef Puffs
These Beef Puffs come in an one pound resealable bag. The moment my mom opened the bag my mouth started to water. These light treats were not only chewy they were crunchy as well. Made from all-natural cow lung this treat is great for small and big dogs alike. What I liked about them the most is my humans can either break them into smaller pieces for training or leave them whole for a delicious treat.


The next treat I tried was Himalayan Gold Large Chew. What I loved about this chew is that there are only 4 ingredients: yak milk, cow milk, salt, and lime juice. This chew is great for my pals who have allergies. My chew was about an inch thick and about 6 inches long. My humans loved that it kept me entertained for hours. One thing my humans noticed that there were some small pieces that broke off that could be a possible choking hazard. However, anytime giving your dog treats possess that risk, which is way supervision should always take place while your pet is enjoying their treats. 


Overall, I would give both these treats 4 paws up and would share them with my pals!

You can learn more about Best Bully Sticks on their Website and these social media sites: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Google+, YouTube, and their Blog.


Now time for the giveaway! If you are 18 years of age or older and a US resident, simply enter the rafflecopter below for your chance to win these treats. One winner will be selected by random. If you have a small dog we will substitute a small/medium Himalayan Gold Chew for them.

FF: DIY Tug Toys and Giveaway


Today's DIY Project is Tug Toys. This project will help keep you dog entertained and a great project for kids to help with.


Supplies:
3 Different Colors of Fleece (I got a yard of each)
Rotatory Cutter Scissor
Cutting Mat
Ruler or Cutting Guide

Total Cost: Under $15 (Got my fleece on sale)
Project Time: To make just one tug toy 5-10 minutes. If you cut all 3 yards and use it all about 30-45 minutes, making about 20 tug toys.
Skill Level: Easy to Moderate
Kid Friendly-Parents need to supervise the cutting of the fabric.


Directions
1. Lay your first fabric out on your cutting mat flat. Using the ruler or cutting guide start cutting strips every 3 inches until the amount of strips you need to make the amount of toys is achieved.

2. Once you cut all three colors layer the three fabrics on top of each other, order doesn't matter. Tie a knot at the one end and pull the fabric tight.

3. Start braiding your 3 fabric until you have about 5 inches left. Then, tie the other end into a knot. You may need to undo some of the braiding to make it easier to tie.

4. Finally, cut the end fabric that is outside of the knot so the fabric is all the same length. 


And there you have it, a fun tug toy that you dog will love to play with. This is a great toy you can make to donate you your local humane society or rescue organization.

Don't forget to enter the two giveaways that are going on know!

All I did was take three mason jars (one for each of my pals) and trace the lids onto different scrapbook paper and cut each of the circles out.

Then, I filled each of the jars with special treats. Making sure I gave some Chunks of Coal to my pals Louie and Carlie for always getting me into mischief. Once full, I placed the lids with the cut out circles on securely.

Finally, using twine I attached labels that I made to each of the jars.
