All Things Dog Blog: Mutt Monday Prepares for Mardi Gras

by Carrie Boyko, CEB

We were very torn about costuming for today's theme. After all, it is President's Day. Mardi Gras won out when we realized that our Red White and Blue costuming lies largely with bandanas. The beads are so much more fun!

Tanner took a turn as well. You may have noticed he has been on a bit of a vacation from the camera lately. After a mysterious rash popped up, he had the joy of wearing a Tshirt to save his side from being scratched during the itchy period. I think we're about there now--finally past the days of requiring a homeopathic soothing, anti-itch spray. He'll be back Wednesday for WW. Be sure to join us for a fun day of Fido photos, via Blogpaws.

Before we get to the main event, I have to ask if you've seen last week's Mutt Monday post. I announced a cool giveaway of a Nylabone toy that is simply adorable. It's great for all dogs, both small and large. All you have to do to have a chance at winning it is Tweet the #MuttMonday hashtag. It's that easy! Here's a simple Tweet to get you started:

Okay, on with the show. Remember, there are really no rules. Keep it family friendly and all about pets, and let 'er rip. Feel free to share a sampling of your last week's posts to show off what's happening at your site. The more the merrier! It is Mardi Gras week, after all!

PS. For those of you who are really into the Oscars, I hear that The Tiniest Tiger will be in one of the secret rooms or "gifting suites" this week, tweeting and giving away a special hipster bag. You can learn more by visiting here.
