Milly the cross Cairn Terrier puppy was a fantastic doggy model this past weekend.

Such a natural poser and we managed to get some great photo’s for our diamond faux fur trim hoodie and the Puppia loveholic heart hoodie.

Here are a couple of outtakes from the photoshoot:

If you’re a pet lover you’ll love this:

The following was found posted very low on a refrigerator door.

Dear Dogs and Cats: The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain
your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Placing a paw
print in the middle of my plate and food does not stake a claim for it
becoming your food and dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in
the slightest.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Racing me
to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn’t help because I fall
faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about
this. Do not think I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your
comfort, however. Dogs and cats can actually curl up in a ball when they
sleep.. It i s not necessary to sleep perpendicular to each other,
stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking
tails straight out and having tongues hanging out on the other end to
maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.

For the last time, there is no secret exit from the bathroom! If, by some
miracle, I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not
necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob or get your paw under
the edge in an attempt to open the door. I must exit through the same door
I entered. Also, I have been using the bathroom for years – canine/feline
attendance is not required.

The proper order for kissing is: Kiss me first, then go smell the other dog
or cat’s butt. I cannot stress this enough.

Finally, in fairness, dear pets, I have posted the following message on the
front door: TO ALL NON-PET OWNERS WHO VISIT AND LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT OUR PETS:

(1) They live here. You don’t. (2) If you don’t want their hair on your
clothes, stay off the furniture. That’s why they call it ‘fur’-niture. (3)
I like my pets a lot better than I like most people.. (4) To you, they are
animals. To me, they are adopted sons/daughters who are short, hairy, walk
on all fours and don’t speak clearly.

Remember, dogs and cats are better than kids because they (1) eat less, (2)
don’t ask for money all the time, (3) are easier to train, (4) normally come
when called, (5) never ask to drive the car, (6) don’t hang out with
drug-using people; (7) don’t smoke or drink, (8) don’t want to wear your
clothes, (9) don’t have to buy the latest fashions, (10) don’t need a
gazillion dollars for college and (11) if they get pregnant, you can sell
their children.

Stumbled across this fantastic website: www.doggo.com.au

The site is a directory listing off lead dog parks, reserves, trails and beaches within Australia as well as dog-friendly holiday accommodation.

It’s easy to use and you can simply put in your suburb or address to find dog friendly areas near you! Fantastic if you’ve just moved to a new area or are on holidays. You may even find some dog friendly areas in your suburb you weren’t even aware of before!

We went for a walk around the Burleigh Headland this afternoon and spotted this guy paddle boarding with his dog!

He’d paddle out with his oar and then catch the waves in. Occasionally they would both fall off and his dog would paddle in the water until he hoisted him back up on the board. They both seemed to be loving it!

What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon on the sunny Gold Coast.
