dog friendly restaurant in Copperopolis, CA

Copperopolis is a new, old looking town along state route 4 in California.  Mo discovered Griff's Barbecue and Grill where they have really yummy barbecue!  They have a really nice outdoor area facing the town square, which is decorated for Halloween with flying ghosts and goblins.  There is also a nice dog friendly outdoor area in front of Snaps, the local cafe.

Doggy tooth brushing

Every night after dinner,  we give Mo a doggy toothbrush, a dental chew for dogs.  We have two kinds we give him, one is Zuke's Z-bones which has the flavor, "clean carrot crisp."  The other one is Breath-Less Chewable Brushless toothpaste, which has flavors and smells of chlorophyll, cinnamon, vanilla, and clove to help freshen breath.  Z-bones is mostly potato flour, while brushless is mostly rice flour.  Mo likes both of them.

Mo at doggy day care taking a nap with a Dachshund

Mo goes to doggy day care a few times a week, and a few days ago when he was there he got so tired that he took a nap with a Dachshund friend!  They were so cute all cuddled up and sleeping!  I love Just Pet Me, and it is wonderful that Mo wants to go there!

Mo at Out and About in Rockridge, Oakland, CA

Billy says, "Mo is at Out and About in Rockridge."  This is a street festival in the Rockridge district of Oakland, CA.  He decided he wanted to be carried at one point, he kept smelling us to make sure we were still there.  He is so tired after his busy day that he's taking a nap right now.





Sleepy Dog

A few mornings ago, Mo did not want to get out of bed. He was so tired all day.  Here is him taking an afternoon nap with Billy on the rocker on our front porch.   Billy says, "Mo likes to sleep on me!"

Moe's favorite nightly bone

Moe loves to chew on a bone before bed, and his favorite is the Good Buddy USA Rawhide.  This brand of bone lasts longer than others I've tried.  It is made with Grass-Fed USA Beef.

Creature Comfort Holistic Vet, Oakland, CA

When I picked up my son from school today I saw a gorgeous older bulldog, the dog's guardian told me the dog is over 13 years old.  She said that her dog was really sick and almost had to be put to sleep before she took her to Creature Comfort Vet in Oakland.  Her dog is on a raw diet, gets acupuncture and other alternative practices.  Now, her dog seemed really energetic, sweet, and sprite!

A Post From Billy

"This is our best dog, Moe.  Sometimes he gets a little crazy and I really love him.  If he doesn't take a bath once a day then he'll get dirty and that's all about our dog.  Bye!"

My Doggy On My Bed!

On Tuesday night my doggy peed on the bed, I have to admit it.  It was our fault as he wasn't let outside around 11 to go potty.  It was a mess cleaning and changing all the sheets, and I am starting to wonder if the dog really does belong in a crate at night rather than on the bed.  We'll see!  Here is a picture of Moe this morning looking so cute!  Plus, seeing my son and dog cuddling in the morning is so heartwarming!
