Summer Fun with Chillin' Bonz!
Can you believe it's already June?? The weather is getting nicer and nicer, and I am really looking forward to taking Sadie to the park and the beach on the weekends! And I know the perfect treat to make for her on these hot summer days!
Remember when I posted about the awesome gift we received -- Chillin' Bonz? We had such a great response to that post, that I wanted to remind everyone about them since summer is right around the corner. Here's a refresher:
(You missed the post or don't remember?! Then check it out, here.)
And while I posted the recipes that came with this awesome product, I just learned that they will be launching a website with additional recipes at the end of next week! (Be sure to check out www.m2pets.com/chillinbonz then!)
I know some of you also have this product, and may have created some of your very own recipes. If so, starting next week, you can email them to recipes@m2pets.com and your favorite recipe might be included on the site, as well!
I can't wait to see what other recipes they post -- and I bet Sadie can't wait to taste them!! ;)

This
is the product. It's pretty cool, I think. The tray snaps closed and
has an inner removable layer as well (where the bone molds are), which
makes for easy cleaning.
Mixing up the yums!
I can has treats now?
The treats pre-freezing.
Sadie got to lick the bowl, too!
Then we put them in the freezer and waited a few hours until...
Frozen yummies!!!
OM NOM NOMMMM!
We tried the peanut butter and banana flavor, because Sadie loves PB and
bananas! It also had a little bit of honey in it as well. I couldn't get a picture of her eating the bone, because I seriously
turned around to get the camera, and when I turned back, she finished it
lol. So I suppose she approves!!!

Another Giveaway!!!
For all you treat lovers out there (aka anyone with a dog!!!)...
The lovely people at Cesar sent us a box full of goodies recently! We were super surprised and excited (as we weren't expecting a package). Sadie was even more excited when I opened the box to find these:
They sent us several bags of these 10-calorie treats, in both the Rotisserie Chicken and Filet Mignon flavors. You can find out more about them here.
And since Sadie is only one tiny doggie, we wanted to share the wealth and have a giveaway for these extra bags we have!!!
All you have to do is comment, and you'll be entered. In about a week, I'll pick TWO winners to receive a fun package in the mail.
Good luck!!! :)

MrChewy.com Review and Contest!
Lucky us! We were approached by MrChewy.com recently, and offered to test out their website and products. We gratefully accepted and ordered lots of different goodies.
If you haven’t been to their site before, you have to check it out! They are an online pet food retailer and they offer over 80 brands of pet food, treats and supplies — for dogs and cats. They carry all the high-quality foods and treats I know many of you use for your dogs, and at discounted rates!
It was hard to pick what to order because there was so much to choose from — and lots of items I have wanted to try for Sadie but just never bought before for whatever reason. This is what we ended up with:
Naturally, Sadie was very excited when this box arrived at our door! She knew it was for her!! I didn’t let her have everything yet, of course, but she has already approved of most of these treats. She isn’t too picky when it comes to food, but she knows good stuff when she smells it!
She is a BIG fan of the antlers, which I was very happy to finally get for her. (Although, I should have ordered a medium instead of a small; I wasn’t sure what size would be best for her…) She has been munching on that for the past few days!
Something else I love about MrChewy.com? They have a great referral program! Once you sign up for the site, you’ll get your own unique referral code to give out to friends, family, other bloggers, etc. When someone orders using your code, they will get 10% off their first order! But that’s not all! For every new friend that orders from them, they will donate $10 to one of their partner charities (you choose who you want to donate to). There is nolimit to how many people you can refer or to the amount of donations they’ll make!! Talk about an awesome website! :) So if you’d like to order, please use my referral code: LAUR7443. Find out more about the referral program here.
Now here’s the part you have all been waiting for!! One of you lucky readers has the chance to win some of these great products! I ordered a few extras of some of the above items, and I’d like to send them to one of you! There might be some extra goodies included, too — you never know! ;) All you have to do is leave a comment and tell us what you think of MrChewy.com! Be sure to check out their Facebook and Twitter pages, too!

The UPS Man Spoiled Sadie
I posted before about how our UPS man brings treats to all the dogs in the neighborhood, Sadie included. But his dedication to doing so has only increased lately, as have the amount of treats he leaves! I've been home the past few times he has come by, so I get to see Sadie's reaction. The second she hears that truck come to a halt outside, she goes ballistic! She tries to do everything in her power to get outside, because she knows treats are coming!!!!
I basically have to hold her when he comes to the door, or else she would probably maul him for those Milkbones lol. Sadie is also way too smart. The other day, I heard the UPS man stopping outside our house. We didn't have a package though; he was just coming to give Sadie cookies. And she certainly knew it! I picked her up as I opened the door, and he dropped three cookies at my feet for her. She was squirming like crazy to get to them. I put her down and quickly picked up two of the three cookies to save for later. Sadie inhaled the third cookie and looked up at me, knowing I had more. I put them on the kitchen table and went about with the rest of my morning routine.
I was sitting at the table a little while later, eating something, so Sadie was naturally staring me down, waiting for some of whatever I was eating. After I finished eating though, I see Sadie stick her nose up high in the air, and she just starts sniffing. She caught the scent of those cookies from earlier and she knew they were on the table. Much to her dismay though, she could not see them (damn those short corgi legs!). So what does she do? Jumps halfway up on the chair and rests her head on the table to confirm their location on the table. "Yup! They're there! I knew it!!!!" So clearly because that was so freaking cute, I gave her another cookie haha. Smart dog.
What's even more amusing about this new UPS routine is that when it's not the usual delivery driver (which it hasn't been this week), Sadie is beside herself when this new person comes to the door WITHOUT cookies. I mean, how dare he! We were going for a walk the other night and up the street comes the UPS truck. Sadie FLIPPED OUT. She was jumping around, wagging her nub, and barking. It was like she was like "Heyyyyy! Remember me!!! You give me cookies!!!" Then this poor man, who is not the usual driver, gets out of the truck and looks at Sadie confused. He probably thought Sadie wanted to attack him. It was super fun trying to get her to continue to walk down the block while that truck sat there, too!
While I think it's awesome that our usual driver gives out treats to the doggies and genuinely loves them all, I do feel bad for the substitute drivers! It's just too funny that Sadie knows what the sound of that truck stopping means!

Chillin' Bonz
Sadie received a pretty cool gift from my Grandma for Christmas, and we had to try it out right away. It's called Chillin' Bonz. It's this awesome tray that allows you to freeze bone-shaped treats for your dog! It comes with a bunch of recipes, too. So we tried the peanut butter and banana flavor, because Sadie loves PB and bananas! It also had a little bit of honey in it as well. The trays come in two different sizes; either four large bones, or I think eight smaller bones. We have the tray with four bones. I've been breaking them up though when I give them to Sadie because she just inhales them lol
This is the product. It's pretty cool, I think. The tray snaps closed and has an inner removable layer as well (where the bone molds are), which makes for easy cleaning.
Mixing up the yums!
I can has treats now?
The treats pre-freezing.
Sadie got to lick the bowl, too!
Then we put them in the freezer and waited a few hours until...
Frozen yummies!!!
OM NOM NOMMMM!
I couldn't get a picture of her eating the bone, because I seriously turned around to get the camera, and when I turned back, she finished it lol. So I suppose she approves!!! These will be great in the summer, I think! I definitely want to try all the recipes. We'll let you know how they all come out :)
Oh, I also wanted to mention...you clearly could do the same thing with an ice cube tray, but I thought these were pretty cool, and I like the bone shape hehe. Also, the bones come out of the tray VERY easily, because the inner removable layer is a softer material that allows you to pop out the treats with ease. I would definitely recommend it! By far one of coolest gifts Sadie received :) I think she's a fan of them as well!

The UPS Man
I love how the day after I say I have nothing to talk about, I think of something to talk about...that's how it always is, isn't it? Haha.
I was reminded of a cute story because yesterday I received something I had ordered and it was delivered by UPS while I wasn't at home. On top of the box was a little dog biscuit. No, it didn't come with my package; the UPS man left it for Sadie. There is a certain driver who knows where all the dogs live in the neighborhood, and if he delivers a package, he also delivers a treat for the pup! How cute is that?
But that's not all! If he sees you walking your dog, he will stop his truck to give out a treat! One day Sadie and I were walking down the street (and it was dark out already). We saw the UPS truck driving toward us and it just stops and the driver threw a treat in our direction. Because it was dark, I couldn't see where the treat landed, so I told Sadie to find it! And she did haha. It was adorable.
Sadie definitely knows the UPS truck means treat time now, and gets super excited every time she sees it driving by! Does your UPS/FedEx/Mailman do something similar? I think it's great that he remembers all the dogs and specifically brings treats for them. My other aunt (who I housesit for often) has had the same experience with UPS. I love it!
