What's In A Name?

How did you choose your pet's name? Choosing just the right name for your pet can be a tricky thing. It has to be easy for them to respond to (so Rumpelstiltskin is most likely out) , it also should "suit" your pet's looks and personality. My dog Roxy was originally going to be named Pebbles (because of her markings). For some reason that name just didn't seem right. It was suggested that she be called "Rocky" because of the rock-like markings on her back. I wanted something more feminine, so we adapted it to Roxy. It matches her personality, and it's an easy name for a dog to learn (short and sweet). My mission is to get my dog in a Roxy surf advertisement or commercial, she would be perfect for it! 
Couldn't you just picture Roxy running around in the field during this commercial?

 Roxy Commercial

or how about walking next to this girl in the ad?

I mean come on! How could you not cast this dog! 

According to the American Kennel Club these are the 150 most common dog names :

 I see that Roxy made the list (Spelt differently though). Is your pet's name on this list? If not, then please post in the comment section below your pet's name(s). I'm always interested in hearing new and interesting pet names!

    Bailey made the list but Pepsi and Turbo didn't but thats okay because their names are not names they are things but I love them, it cute. Also Roxy would be perfect for the commercial.

    Honey didn't make the list but i guess that's because it isn't a common name for a dog

A Roxy Free Post

This is my first attempt at a vlog. I have  a ton of videos of Roxy on my phone, and normally I would be bombarding you with them. Unfortunately my editing programs weren't cooperating. So in the meantime enjoy this Roxy free post of my husband landing a barracuda on the beach. I couldn't believe such a big fish was hanging around in such shallow water. It gave him a good fight, that's for sure!

Everyday Human Foods That Could Be Harming Your Dog

Image
My dog loves food. Especially food that is not in her food bowl. If I'm eating something, she wants it. She'll try anything. However, did you know that there are many common foods that we eat regularly that can be harmful, even toxic to your dog? Here's a quick list of some of them for you:  Chocolate- Okay, most of us know about this one, but I thought I'd better include it anyway. Dogs, just like humans often have a sweet tooth, but it's the caffeine and theobromine that can spell big trouble for dogs. Garlic and Onions: On top of stinky breath (no one wants a dog with garlic and onion breath!), these veggies are actually toxic for your dog. Apparently raw onions and garlic are even worse than cooked ones. Apparently it can take a few days to show its affects as well. Warning signs in your dog include dark red or orange urine and lethargy.  Avocado: This one was a complete shocker to me. How can one of my "super foods" that can be  s...

The Best and Worst Moments of 2016 (according to my dog)

Image
Now that 2017 is underway, I've had some time to reflect and think about all the good and not so good times over the past year. 2016 was an exciting year with many new changes, and it got me thinking: Do dogs reflect over their past experiences? Do dogs reminisce when they're older of "the good old days?" Do dogs ever have regrets?  Well, if my dog Roxy had to make a list of the best and worst times of 2016 this is what I think her list would look like: 2016- The Good Every car ride I went on  When it was steak night at home Catching chickens Catching iguanas  Catching the neighbor's cat  All those long afternoon naps Beach days Pool days Long walks Tons of new toys 2016- The Bad Busting through the neighbor's screen porch to catch the neighbor's cat Getting a bad infection in my leg from catching the neighbor's cat Getting punished after catching the neighbors cat Chewing through three sets of living room blinds (yup, tha...
