Fido’s New Year Resolutions

1. I will eat less and exercise more

2. I will recognize the difference between furniture and fire hydrants when looking for the perfect place to relieve myself

3. I will introduce myself in more appropriate ways by trying not to invade human’s private parts

4. I will bark less at the mailman that I have know my whole life

5. I will try not to steal food if it is difficult and out of reach, I can’t promise I will not steal if it is easy to snatch

6. I will reserve using my puppy dog eyes when begging for worthwhile things

7. I will try to remember the garbage is not a large version of my treat jar

Wishing everyone a safe and happy new year!

Most Influential In Fashion

The voting results are in! Refinery 29 names Janie Bryant, costume designer for Mad Men, as the most influential person in fashion.  Not since Patricia Field, stylist for Sex and the City, has a TV costume designer had such influence over our wardrobes and closets…but who is complaining.  We love Bryant’s style of elegance and glamour of the 50s and 60s not only in Mad Med but in the launch of her Janie Bryant MOD collection for QVC in September.

A few travel tips if flying by plane this holiday season…

·   Make sure your pet is properly identified.  His collar and ID tag should have current contact information.  It is not a bad idea to also include your final destination contact information.  Invest in a microchip extra identification and protection. 

·   Ease your pet’s stress by having them travel in their kennel.  Make sure their kennel is the appropriate size.  They should be able to stand and turn around easily. 

·   After being inspected at the airport, it is good to secure your pet’s kennel with a zip tie if flying in cargo. 

·   Tape a photo of your pet to the kennel and keep a photo with you.

·   Whenever possible, try to book direct flights and inform the flight attendant you have a pet in the cargo if they are not traveling in the cabin with you.

·   Avoid traveling with pets that are too young, fragile or sick to travel.

·   Take copies of vaccination records in case of emergency.  These documents will also be required when traveling by plane.

·   Double check your airline for any special requirements when traveling with your pet in cargo or in the cabin.

·   Keep a leash with you, especially if flying with your pet in the cabin.  Airport security screeners will ask for you to remove your pet from its travel carrier.
