Squeaky toys are Shio’s inedible equivalent of marrow bones. He’s becomes so fixated on the squeaky sounds that we actually use toys to aid in training him rather than treats. I’ve been finding inspiration from school projects by researching Pixar’s animations on my computer. While watching the short animation, “For the Birds”, Shio hears the…
Okay, so as Josh mentioned, I’m a little crazy about Shio’s dental hygiene. Maybe it was because my friend scared the bejesus out of me when she told me her 3 yo Chihuahua had half his teeth removed because they failed to care for his teeth or maybe because I’m just crazy. On a serious…

Thanks for the suggestion Ray! I just searched for the bag and its beautiful… perfect for summer!
