A perfect ten? That would be me as of today! Can you believe I’m turning ten? I feel more like four. They say age is all in how you feel, so I’m doing real good! Mom always calls me her princess, which is why I am wearing a princess birthday hat this year! Somehow I see myself as more of a queen, but princess isn’t a bad thing either.
It seems like just yesterday, we had recently moved from Germany to the USA, and I was turning one. I was quite the happy pup and starting the tradition of sporting fancy party hats!
Let’s not forget Bailie…no, she is definitely not a perfect ten like me, but my birthday is also a special day for her. Remember the day I turned seven? I was celebrating my birthday when Bailie showed up. It turns out she is one of those guests that just never leaves. Four years later she has really dug her paws in here at our house and I’m pretty sure she is not going anywhere, kind of a gift that keeps on giving, like forever! Happy Gotcha Day, little sis!
Talking about exciting things that happen on birthdays, I talked to Chewy.com, and am giving away $50 in prizes to one lucky winner! Even better, after I chose six of my favorite products to include in the giveaway, they sent me all the prizes too! Being a #ChewyInfluencer sure has some great perks! Do you want to see what is in this box?
Here I am with all six items I chose for the giveaway! Bailie got to give her input for the two toy items. I figured since it is her Gotcha Day, she could have some input too. Let me tell you! There is some great stuff here!
To give you the specifics, I will tell you a bit about each of the prizes in the box.
- Prairie Dog Texas Sausages Country Chicken and Sweet Potato Dog Treats – these are my favorite new treats a nose work friend got me addicted to.
- Merrick Backcountry Pacific Catch Real Salmon Jerky Dog Treats – I love these super salmon jerky pieces, all natural and so tasty!
- Natural Balance Wild Pursuit Venison Lung Bites – these are great for on the go, and we have them in the car for that reason most of the time.
- Dr. Tims Natural Beef Tips – Freeze Dried – I enjoy using these as training rewards.
- Ethical Pet Skinneeez Forest Series Rabbit Stuffingless Dog Toy – Bailie likes to drag these kind of toys around the house and they are also suitable for tug a war.
- HuggleHounds Feller Squirrel Dog Toy – Bailie has one of these and just loves it despite being somewhat in disrepair from over loving.

So sweet! Our kitties love Chewy.com’s Halo Spot’s Stew. Mmm, salmon…
Thank you. We order our cat food from Chewy.com too.
I buy green tripe from chewy.com regularly.
That is good stuff.
A perfect 10 like the Bo Derek huh Emma? I know how you feel about Bailie I have one of those guests too named Taffy. Love Dolly
I think I am a perfect ten. Mom tells everyone I’m a perfect breed specimen, so it kind of has gone to my head. Taffy and Dolly…two guests who have overstayed their welcome. What can we do.
We get everything from Chewy, little Smoky girl, my cesky terrier loves their Merrick’s food and bully sticks! Been reading through the blog and finally caught up to current, love reading through all your adventures Emma!
Thank you! I’m so happy you enjoy my blog. We order almost everything from Chewy.com too.
We do! Love seeing the everday joy of such a nice breed! Have gotten to see several of your cousin’s at shows and they are always so sweet!
Thank you! I rarely see any others of my breed, which makes me feel all the more special.
Chuckit! Travel Bed
Happy Birthday Emma! You are definitely a pawfect 10 and Bailey is a close second! Happy Gotcha day to Bailey as well! What a lot of celebrating going on in your house. Great prizes in your birthday giveaway, I think my faves are the Natural Balance and the Merrick goodies – it was hard enough to pick any faves, let alone just one, everything is so awesome in this Chewy box! Thanks for sharing presents on your special day guys! Love these photos too!
Love & biscuits,
Dogs Luv Us and We Luv Them
Thank you. Chewy.com has so many great things, a girl really can’t choose just one, but I tried to pick some of my favorites!
I luv all da treats from Chewy!
And a belated happy birthday!!
Being a puppy, I bet you love the toys too!
Happy birthday!
We haven’t had the opportunity to try any chewy treats.
Thank you. You really should give Chewy.com a try. I know you would love them.
First, and most importantly, HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMMA!! Cheers to many more years of celebrating and making memories! We <3 Chewy, and their products. I'm glad you like them too! We, of course, would love any item shown, but if we had to choose, we'd likely gravitate towards the Merrick treats.
I’ve never met anything from Merrick I don’t like!
He would like the Merrick Backcountry Pacific Catch Real Salmon Jerky Dog Treats.
They are so good! I go absolutely wild for them!
Happy 10th Barkday!!! Have a pawsome year. Golden Woofs, SUGAR
Thanks Sugar! I know it will be a great year!
happy birthday! we love antlers from chewy!
Thank you. Antlers are always good.
Nutramax Cosequin Maximum Strength (DS) Plus MSM Chewable Tablets Joint Health Supplement for Dogs
My babies love those Halo Liv-a-Littles Beef treats at Chewy. Thank you and Happy Birthday!
Liver treats are really tasty!
Emma, I am not sure how I missed this! Happy belated Birthday! Harley welcomes you to the decade club. He says that you don’t need to listen quite as well once you reach that milestone.
I didn’t know that Bailie was a Birthday gift – what an amazing present!
She was more like a guest who never left, but I guess she could be considered a gift too.
Oh, honey happy birthday! May all your wishes come true!
Thank you!
I use Chewy.com to keep all our staples in stock (Wellness CORE, baggies, treats, etc).
We do the same.
We get Bowser’s Zignature Duck Dog Food from Chewy.com
Happy Birthday!!! Your pics are beautiful!!! What a great way to celebrate! Everything in the box looks ah-mazing…and FiveSibes Huskies would love everything! Including the squirrel toy! Have a wonderful Birthday week, month, and year!!!
Thank you! I should hope every dog would enjoy a squirrel 😉
We haven’t heard of Chewy until now. Sad but true! I’ll be checking into it now. Happy Birthday!
Be careful. Once you start ordering, you will never stop! They have everything, prices are great, and it is so easy!
Well Happy Birthday & Gotcha Day! You are a lovely pup! I am speaking for Odin and he says the HuggleHounds Feller Squirrel Dog Toy would be his favorite. He likes to bark as squirrels but doesnt know what to do with them,maybe a toy would give him a clue (or not).
ellen beck on the form wordpress is making me use this name !
Bailie loves her huggle hound. Thankfully, stuffed squirrels can’t climb trees!
Happy Barkday! My Mommy can’t wait to see party pictures! I LOVE when I’m given Nutro’s crunchy treats, that’s when I know I’ve done something real good. It would be helpful if Chewy also carried Mom’s favorite poop smell remover (noseoffense.com) so she is happier more often.. that way I can get many more treats and she can do all her purchasing on one site! Thank you! 🙂 Woofs & Wags!
Lola & Schumi
Chewy.com is an amazing place to shop. They are constantly adding products too. Has your mom tried calling or emailing them to suggest they carry that product?
My favorite is the Aspen Pet Sofa Bed.
Nice!
Happy birthday beautiful!
Thank you. I had a great birthday.
Regarding the chewy products, my dogs love any meat-based treats!
My favorite Chewy.com product is the Canidae Grain-Free PURE Heaven Biscuits with Salmon & Sweet Potato Crunchy Dog Treats.
They sound good. I like Canidae treats a lot.
HAPPY BARKDAY EMMA! HAPPY GOTCHA DAY BAILIE!
Great way to celebrate by offering a wooftastic giveaway!
3 Bum swings! 3 more!
Have a pawfect year my furiend.
I’ve never had a Chewy.com product but I’m sure they are pawsome!
Nose nudges,
CEO Olivia
They have almost everything a dog could want. We love them!
We love the Primal brand Freeze Dried Nuggets-tasty topper for our kibble. 😉
Freeze dried toppers and treats are top of the list for us too!
