#TeethCare
Did you know that we have 42 teeth in our mouths?? Those teeth are made up of four different types, with different purposes…
Incisors are the small teeth in the front that are used to tear meat from a bone and for self-grooming.
Canines are the pointy teeth. These four teeth are used to puncture and hold on to something…especially helpful when playing tug-of-war.
Premolars are located behind the canine teeth and are used for shearing.
Molars are the flat, heavy-duty teeth found in the back of the mouth and are used for grinding and chewing.
Having pearly whites isn’t just fashionable, it’s a sign of good health, as well!

#TearStains
A question that we get frequently is “How do you not have tear stains?”
Guess What?!? We used to! But, not anymore! These two photos of Bruiser were 12 months apart.
We 100% believe it has to do with diet. For a while, we had horrible tear stains. We ate grain free kibble, drank filtered water, and thought we were doing everything right…but the stains around our eyes and mouths just wouldn’t go away.

#HikingTheWave
We hiked to The Wave! It is an amazing sandstone rock formation located on the very Northern edge of Arizona on the slopes of the Coyote Buttes in the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness.
With the growth of social media, this natural wonder has become well known amongst hikers, photographers and even social media influencers for its colorful and unique shapes.

#ChineseElements
What Element are you?
Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal or Water? I am very intrigued by Chinese Medicine and the way it looks at our energy and our health. I’ve frequently sought out different alternative therapies (acupuncture, cupping, gua sha, herbal medicine, etc.) for myself and the pups...with great success.
As a result, I’m constantly into learning new things. I recently learned that our pets can be linked to the Elements, which can help us with knowing how to communicate with them, what to watch out for in their health, even what to feed them…to make them the best versions of themselves!

#JoeysAdventure
Before we said goodbye, we were able to have one last adventure with Joey. We didn’t go far, just adventured around town, but we spent the weekend as a family, making happy memories. With the help of some strong drugs, we were able to make him comfortable. Saturday, he was content just to be by my side, whether that be in my lap or being carried. Sunday was the best day it could have been. He rallied and found the strength to walk and stand on his own four legs. We could not have asked for a better weekend…the strong, determined Joey is the one we will forever remember and hold dear to our hearts. RIP #MyMisterJoey (2/12/2001 - 12/10/2017)

Mommy wishes she had attached a pedometer to Jax, because the step count would have been off the charts!

#LearnToDockDive
When Mommy & Daddy originally enrolled me in swimming lessons, they never imagined I would turn into the high flying #SuperB that I am today. They have put together a trip down memory lane, showing how I went from a pup who knew nothing about water, to a pup who soars through the air, splashes down, goes under water and emerges triumphant and on a mission to rescue his ball!
