Crock pots are a cook's best friend! They make dinner fast and easy, revolutionizing the way we cook. Just throw a few ingredients into your crock pot in the morning, set the temperature, go about your day and let the slow cooker do all the work. All you and Fido need to do after a long day is to dish up and enjoy this ready to serve home cooked meal. Even the most inexperienced cook can produce a hearty, delicious meal in a crock pot. We have the perfect recipe to get you excited about cooking for Fido. Mesmerize your dog's taste buds with this delicious one pot wonder, chicken and brown rice!

Ingredients

Base
1 cup brown rice
2 cups water

Vegetables
1/2 lb. green beans, broken into segments
1 medium sweet potato, raw, cut into medium-sized chunks (leave skin on)
3 carrots, sliced into about 1" thick rounds

Protein
2 boneless chicken breasts (with or without skin)

Directions
1. Put all ingredients into the crockpot in the order given (layer, don’t mix).
2. Cook on low for about 8 hours, on high for about 5 hours.
3. When done, stir, breaking up the chicken into small pieces. Everything will be quite soft.
4. Let cool and serve; can be used with a quality kibble or by itself, in a serving size appropriate for your dog’s weight and activity level.

Refrigerate unused portion; keeps up to three days.

Substitutions are allowed! For vegetables, try broccoli florets, zucchini, spinach or any of several types of squash. For the protein source, beef cubes, turkey or lamb also work. Use organic ingredients if possible.

If you don't have a crock pot no problem, just use a large pot and cook dish low on stove top.

So we are excited to announce our new Tuesday blog series “Spotlight on a Rescue or Charity”, to pay tribute and honor animal rescue, shelters and charities. These are our unsung heroes across America dedicated to enriching, saving and nurturing the lives of animals in need.  We hope you will champion our cause by barking the word about the importance of pet adoption, You can also donate your time and finances to help your local animal shelter, rescue or charity. Be a voice, email us if you know of a deserving animal rescue or charity that should be spotlighted and recognized. With that said, we are proud to spotlight “ASPCA“. Thanks for being the voice against animal cruelty and for saving lives!

About the ASPCA

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was the first humane society to be established in North America and is, today, one of the largest in the world. Their organization was founded by Henry Bergh in 1866 on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law. Headquartered in New York City, the ASPCA maintains a strong local presence, and with programs that extend our anti-cruelty mission across the country, they are recognized as a national animal welfare organization. They are a privately funded 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, and proud to boast more than 1 million supporters across the country

Mission

The ASPCA's mission, as stated by founder Henry Bergh in 1866, is "to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States."

What does the ASPCA do?

As the first humane organization to be granted legal authority to investigate and make arrests for crimes against animals, they are wholly dedicated to fulfilling the ASPCA mission through nonviolent approaches. Their organization provides local and national leadership in three key areas: caring for pet parents and pets, providing positive outcomes for at-risk animals and serving victims of animal cruelty.

How Can You Help the ASPCA?

There are so many ways to join the fight against animal cruelty and get involved: by speaking up,
adopting, donating funds and shopping the ASPCA online store.

Be a voice! Support the ASPCA  by “Liking” their Facebook page or follow them on Twitter. Bark the word about their cause, join the fight to end animal cruelty!

An active dog is a healthy and happy dog! Whether you take your dog for a brisk walk around the neighborhood, on a jog or adventure hike. Proper exercise ensures your dog stays healthy. However, with the hectic pace of life today, as much as we love our pets, sometimes even the little tasks, like walking the dog, seem difficult to accomplish. It's okay to ask for help and call in reinforcements to carry some of the pet care load. Thank goodness for great dog walkers who come to the rescue!

1. Plan your schedule. Determine how often you can and cannot walk your dog. Once you know how often you'll need extra help you'll be able to find a dog walker available to fill in whenever you won't be around.

2. Word of Mouth. Don't just hire a random person to act as your dog walker. You'll want to invest the time and effort into finding the very best reputable dog walker you can afford. Get recommendations from other dog owners. Ask at your local dog park or speak to all your friends and family about dog walkers they've used in the area.

3. Arrange Meeting. Call dog walkers in your area and arrange to have meetings with those you are interested in hiring. Be sure to give yourself at least three options in case you have reservations about some that you've spoken with.

4. Interview potential dog walkers via phone. Ask a lot of questions of the dog walkers you call. For instance, you'll want to ask how much experience they have, what qualifications they have and how they handle disciplining the dogs. Also, you'll want to know how many dogs they walk at once.

5. Set up meet and greet. Introduce your dog to the dog walkers. This gives you a chance to see your dog's temperament around the dog walkers. As well as allows the dog walkers a chance to determine whether or not they would feel comfortable with your dog.

Ultimately you and your dog both need to feel comfortable with your choice. It is important that you are able to trust your dog walker with spending time with your beloved furry family member. If something doesn’t seem right, listen to your gut instinct. But when you do find the right dog walker make sure to show them appreciation.

We always love getting emails from our customers & readers asking us to feature their dog or favorite breed for our Best Bully Sticks Spotlight on a Breed blog series every Thursday. As always we are honored to oblige.  Thanks Cindy! We are excited to spotlight your beautiful American Eskimo. Everyone say “Hello” by sending out warm barks and tail wags to Maddie! Maddie was adopted from the SPCA when she was about 3yrs old and she is about 11 or 12 now. It was love at first sight for both Maddie and Cindy!

Height: 9-19 inches ( toy, miniature and standard)

Weight: 6-40 lbs ( toy, miniature and standard)

Coat: The American Eskimo Dog has a glorious standoff double-coat. They have a dense undercoat and a long topcoat that combines to create an overall fluffy coat which sheds year round. The outer coat is straight and does not curl or wave. Eskimos are fluffy all over, but they boast a pronounced ruff of fur at the neck and the fur on the tail is also very pronounced. The backs of the front and rear legs are well feathered. This breed is an average shedder that "blows" their coat twice a year.

Color: The American Eskimo dog comes in two colors: white and white with biscuit or cream markings.

Appearance: The American Eskimo Dog, originally called the American Spitz and now also known as the Eskie. Many people think that American Eskimo Dogs are miniature Samoyeds. They have a similar look, but the Eskimos are a breed all their own. They are compact dogs who come in three sizes: toy, miniature and standard. All three versions have the same physical characteristic: wedge-shaped heads, erect triangular ears, fluffy white coats, and large, plumed tails that rest or curl across the dog's back. Their eyes are brown and they have stark white eyelashes, and their toenails are also white.

Temperament: Happy and always energetic, the American Eskimo dog loves to run, play, learn new tasks and solve problems. As the name suggests, this breed especially loves playing in the snow, so they make a perfect companion for families who live in cooler climates. They are vigilant, with a keen ear, and make excellent watchdogs.

Commonly referred to as the Eskie, this breed is compact and strong. A Nordic type dog, they are exceedingly agile and alert. They are considered to be one of the most intelligent of all dog breeds. The American Eskimo Dog is well balanced, hardy, and known for their longevity. This versatile breed possesses outstanding working skills, and makes a lovely companion.

Bred solely to be companions, the American Eskimo Dog thrives on being part of the family. This charming and playful breed is excellent with children, and loves to be lavished with attention. They are patient and loving with children, and their good nature make them a fine match for first-time dog owners. They are suspicious and wary of strangers and make good guardians of their family and home. They love to bark and will sound the alarm whenever they deem it necessary. This breed does not do well if left alone for extended periods of time or if they are isolated, as they will engage in destructive activities.

Health: The average life span of the American Eskimo is 15-16 years. This breed tends to become overweight easily, so proper diet and exercise is needed to maintain an overall well being.  Although generally very healthy, possible health issues include: PRA (Progressive Retinal Atrophy), luxating patella, and hip dysplasia. The breed can have a tendency towards allergies and most commonly, tear-staining. This breed also is known in some cases to have dental issues.
