The hardest rooting 12th dog in the game! Go Hawks!

In this house we are huge Seattle Seahawks fans! You may have realized that if you have been to this blog before, or visited our Instagram or Twitter acounts. Its in our blood; every member of this family bleeds blue & green! So that means we have two (vert fat) 12th cats and the hardest rooting 12th dog in the game!

That being said, all of us are very excited that come this Sunday we get to watch our beloved Hawks in their 2nd Superbowl in 2 years! #rePete So much that we have been getting ready ourselves. Hardest Rooting 12th dog in the game!

Basil has been sporting his 12th dog gear every waking moment in anticipation. I also threw the referee jersey on Sebastian in hopes that maybe that will give us some better luck with the refs this weekend. (You never know! It’s only crazy if it doesn’t work!) 12th cat and 12th dog!

So this Sunday we will be yelling and screaming for our Seattle Seahawks and hoping for them to come home with the W. Lets all hope for a clean, fair football game and let the best team win! 12th cat and 12th dog!

In closing I’ll leave you with the famous words of Bill Nye, Rainn Wilson, Chris Pratt, Macklemore, and Katy Perry… “GO HAWKS!”

Travel well, nap well, live well!

Happy Birthday Basil!!!

Basil's 5th Birthday!Today we are celebrating Basil turning the big 0-5! I can’t believe another year has come and gone and how he is still the most amazing dog! We will be spending our day being lazy, having a ton of tasty treats, and later we will be going to Petco to visit the ferrets! (Basil loves ferrets!) Also, I’ll be posting soon about Basil’s upcoming birthday party so keep an eye out!

How are you spending this happy Tuesday? Hoping all of our friends in the Northeast are staying safe and warm! We would love to see your snow pictures!

Travel well, nap well, live well!

Just yesterday BarkPost (BarkBox’s blog. If you do not follower them head over there now and sign up for their weekly emails here. Totally worth it!) posted an article about one of our favorite dog friendly hotels. Aloft Asheville, the Asheville branch of the Aloft Hotels chain, started arguably the best new hotel policy in dog friendly hotel history! Since July of 2014 Aloft Asheville has brought in local adoptable dogs to help check you in and to pull at your heart strings. During your stay you can enjoy the company of these lovable pups in many areas of the hotel and if the fit is right the Aloft will help you with the adoption.

Basil loves the Aloft Asheville and seriously tries to drag me in there every time we are in Asheville. Remember our last post about Aloft? Check it out here! Basil loves Aloft

Thank you to BarkPost for the great post. Just another reason to spend a couple days in Asheville, NC. Come for the amazing city and leave with a new member of the family.
