Why Goldie Loved His Dog Kong Toy

Goldie loved to play games and he loved to eat! When we were looking for toys for Goldie the Dog Kong toy seemed a great combination!  Kong Classic Dog Toy, L, Red, Unpredictable Bounce Honestly this Kong toy kept him amused for hours. We found it so useful for when he was a young dog and although he would crash out after a walk, his energy levels revived before ours did!

Goldies Birthday!

Today was Goldies Birthday!  He loved his Birthdays. He got an extra special walk, and often we were on holiday at this time so he got lots of time with us and exploring new places, new sights and smells and meet new people and dogs.  I experimented with baking him different dog suitable cakes and he got lots of presents which he took great delight in opening!  He loved Nylabones and dog treats the best! He got so excited over his Birthdays and why not ! It was always a very happy day and we thank the day he was born and came into the world and we had the priviledge of sharing his life.
