It's Amazon Prime Days today and they have some good deals on tog stuff! One of the best I have seen so far is for a Dog Life Jacket. I have been thinking of getting one for Ember and the Outward Hound brand is 53% off (link in comments).

A few other good deals we have found: Benebones (an Ember favourite - and MUCH better priced than in store - we have purchased these previously), cooling mats (perfect for this time of year) and Rollover.

Have you found any great prime day deals for dogs? Share with us in the comments! :D

Featured Park of the week: Nanaimo River Regional Park - off-leash trail. If you live in or around Nanaimo or even if you are just visiting, a walk at the Nanaimo River Regional Park is well worth the visit. The trail itself is fairly short - only about 1km (2km round trip). But the scenery is beautiful and your dog (and you too) can take a dip in the river to cool down.

Nanaimo River Regional Park dog Park is A dog-friendly river trail and swimming area in Nanaimo, BC, with forested trails, river access, parking, picnic spots, a toilet, and salmon-viewing opportunities. Dogs are permitted under RDN rules if kept under control, unless posted signage requires leashin...

nothing is more soothing to me then the sound of my baby girl snoring happily. Anyone else snoring... not so much. 🤣

Knowing they feel: loved, safe, and content 🫶 no better feeling

Sunday shoutout - sending a shout out to DOG ZEN dog walkers in North Vancouver. We had the pleasure of doing an event with Dog Zen last Christmas and watching their walkers interact with the doggos they walk was fantastic. Each and every dog was SO excited to see their walker and play with them.

If you are looking for a dog walker we highly recommend reaching out to them!

(Throwback picture of one of their walkers dressed as Santa for a photo event last Christmas).

Featured Park of the Week: Beachcomber off-leash park and beach

If you live on Vancouver Island or are planning to visit, we highly recommend checking out Beachcomber Beach in Nanoose Bay. It's been a few years since we visited with Avy, but I still remember how much fun she (and we!) had exploring the sandstone rocks, followed by a swim in the ocean. Well worth the visit if you are in the area.

Beachcomber Regional Park off-leash dog beach is A beautiful off-leash beach and park with sandstone rocks and two beach areas with lots of room for dogs to play or have a swim.

The meme of the sign I posted last week reminded me of another one of my favourite signs - at the Blackie Spit Dog Park at Crescent Beach, BC.

No smoking, No feeding the ducks but dogs on leash may p**p!
