Small Breeds

If you live in a small apartment or don't have a lot of outdoor space, consider getting a small breed dog. These dogs are compact and don't need as much room to run around. Some popular small breeds include Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, and French Bulldogs.

Toy Breeds

Toy breeds are even smaller than small breeds and are perfect for apartment living. They are often lap dogs and love to cuddle up with their owners. Some popular toy breeds include Yorkshire Terriers, Maltese, and Pugs.

Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats

Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats Today, I am super excited to share my techniques for making another truly wholesome dog treat with you. After-all, your furry companions deserve healthy food, so that they can be their best selves. These pup treats are the perfect snack to make ahead of time for your cuddly pooch as a reward for their love and companionship, obedience, potty-training, or for any other training in general.  My fur baby seems to think that the treats taste better when they're made in different cute shapes.

Scrub-a-Dub-Dub Once your dog is all wet, it's time to lather up that shampoo! Gently massage the shampoo into their fur, making sure to get all those hard-to-reach spots. Don't forget to rinse thoroughly to avoid any leftover soap residue. Drying Off After the bath is done, it's time to dry off your dog. Use a towel to gently pat...
