Our Canine Inspirations

 

Harley

AKA (Harles, H-Dog, Harles Barkely, Baxter)

Harley was our first dog. A gentle giant who acted like an old man for most of his life. He was the inspiration for this site and you can read more about him here. Sadly, we lost Harley in December of 2017 just shy of his 12th birthday.

 

Charlie

AKA (Chuck, Chuckles, Monster, Robocop)

Charlie is the newest member of our family, who we adopted from a dog rescue group 6 years ago. After several years of supervision from Harley, he has stepped into his role of Sr. Product Tester with enthusiasm. In his time off Charlie enjoys zooming, licking faces and is a well known stick connoisseur. He also excels in his work as a therapy dog at a local school.

Want to Help Support our Work?

We spend a lot of time and money putting all of this together, but it is our passion. We want to improve the lives of humans and dogs everywhere by celebrating our relationships with one another.

That being said, there are a couple of very simple ways that you can help support what we are doing…

We have set up affiliate relationships with some of our favorite pet brands – allowing us to earn a small commission for every product (that we refer) sold.

It costs you no more to shop through these links (which can often be found throughout our articles) – and as a matter of fact, you can often save money with our exclusive coupon codes!

Share with your friends!

Simple to do, but it still helps us a great deal! If you enjoy our content please consider passing it along to a friend or sharing on your social media accounts!
