Howdy blogaroos. Squirmy here on a super Saturday. And something is going on here. The Warden has been on a cleaning blitz. Which can only mean one thing. Company. But who will it be? The Warden told the Boss because she said he can keep a secret. But she wouldn’t tell me or the Coyote. I’ll keep you posted.
The other night, the Warden went to visit one of the neighbors who was having a little get together for friends – and the theme of the evening was cleaning products. Yup. A cleaning product party. How PERFECT for the Warden. I mean with three canines, we need to buy cleaning supplies by the truckload. Anyway, this stuff at the party is supposed to be the Mercedes of cleaning supplies. Their special cleaning cloths are reportedly extra super duper and will even remove canine olfactory art from windows with just water. JUST WATER. That’s what they said. Needless the say, the Warden was sold. She got some other stuff too – including some cleaner for the floors that is safe for us dogs. It’s supposed to be better than us licking Clorox residue. Maybe THAT explains my wild behavior.
So the Warden came home all happy about ordering her products and trying them out. I’ve never seen her happy about the prospect of cleaning. We can’t WAIT for her order to come in.
But truth be told, much as cleaning products are so incredibly interesting to us canines (cough cough), she DID come home with something even MORE exciting. Dog biscuits. But not just any dog biscuits. These are made by a very special local Grade 4 student named Annika. Annika loves dogs. And she likes to make things. So she started making dog biscuits. And she enjoyed it so much, she decided to sell some – with $1 from every bag going to the local SPCA. Annika did all the math to calculate just how much the biscuits would cost to make. And she does her own baking. She has her very own Facebook page :

And she also just started her own Instagram page:

You can check out her videos making her treats, and also having her dog Finn, doing quality control taste testing.
Annika’s Mom was at the get together and thankfully had a few bags of treats – one of which the Warden bought for us. In the picture, the bag is half empty as we tried one biscuit each when she got home. And they were fantastic! Even the Coyote liked them. And if it passes his taste test, you KNOW they are good!
The Warden was SO impressed with Annika’s entrepreneurial spirit. She said that at Annika’s age, her only foray into the business world was selling her required quota of Girl Scout cookies. Most of which her mother bought…
Well, time for walks and then we wait to see who’s coming to visit. Who ever it is – they better like dogs…
Have a good one. Peace and paws up. Stay safe.
