Our Favorite Outdoor Ally + Giveaway

July 24, 2013 By Shawna

This post is sponsored by Purina Dog Chow

This is our dog Kaiser. He’s a schnauzer. And he’s the best. dog. ever.

best dog ever

He’s obviously the families’ favorite outdoor ally. We can count on him to always be up for an adventure….

We love him a lot because he puts up with this crazy lot…

And he loves to explore…

But best of all his skills never fail to entertain…


And because we love him so much we try to take the best care of him. Purina must have noticed because they sent us some of their new Light and Healthy dog food and invited us to be a part of the “Healthy Hundred” campaign.

The light and healthy dog food reflects its’ name. It actually has 22% fewer calories than Purina Dog Chow.

Purina has this cool little tool on their site where you can designate how many pounds your dog is and it will tell you how much to feed your dog each day to keep them at a healthy weight.

Kaiser eats it up really good. He bypasses the crunchy pieces so he can eat the tender chicken pieces first though.

Whenever we take Kaiser on roadtrips or camping we take along his Outward Hound compact food carrier. We got this years ago and it still works great. The top holds the food and the bottom has a waterproof liner in it to hold his water. They zip apart.

    I’m lucky enough that the school across the street has a huge grassy field that becomes the local dog park after hours. People start streaming down my street with their dogs, headed to the school, as they get home from work.

    We just got a new-to-us older puppy and we need to take him out exercising more - this would be perfect!

    I take my dog, Treen, on every hike I do except in National Parks or on glaciers and she’s never happier than when she’s rolling in the snow.

    My dog and I like to go hiking on the trails around our house. We also love to go to the pool parties that will start next week.
