I feel like I might be the last dog lover to read this book because I’ve seen it mentioned all over the interwebs, but I finally got around to combing through Dr. Pitcairn’s New Complete Guide to Natural Health for Dogs and Cats.
Over the past six months or so, ever since Emmett’s cancer diagnosis, I’ve [...]

Review: Eco Dog by Marshall and Deskevich

Eco Dog: Healthy Living for Your Pet
Books are my weakness. I can’t walk into a bookstore without snatching up an armfull of books and magazines. In attempting to be both eco- and budget-friendly, though, I’ve been working out my library card lately, which has been awesome! However, when I saw this book when I stopped [...]

Book Review: Inside of a Dog

The general idea behind Alexandra Horowitz’s book is [...]

Quite possibly the greatest dog toy ever

*This is NOT a paid or sponsored promotion in any way. I just seriously love this thing!!
We generally try to be eco-friendly around the house and with our purchases. That means less packaging, of course, and avoiding plastic. There is one exception, however, that we have purchased over and over again: the Busy Buddy Bouncy [...]

Review: Woman’s Best Friend

I recently finished Woman’s Best Friend: Women Writers on the Dogs in Their Lives, and I absolutely have to recommend this book. It’s a collection of essays that explore our unique relationships with our dogs. They range from heartbreaking to uplifting to utterly hilarious. Though there were a couple essays that I did not agree [...]

Review: Modern Dog and The Bark Magazines

I love magazines. I subscribe to a few and devour the rest on the newsstands each month. Every time I’m at the bookstore, I look for new issues of Modern Dog and The Bark, my two favorite dog magazines. Both summer issues are on newsstands now, and before you drop almost $5 a piece, here [...]

I’m on a mission to hunt down the best dog blogs that I can find to build out the blogroll. First up is Raise a Green Dog! Not only does the blog have tons of [...]

Great new eco-friendly finds!

I’m always searching for fun, safe, eco-friendly dog toys. My guys go through most new toys in a matter of minutes – so I’m always concerned about both the cost of the toy and the content (in case they accidentally swallow bits).

Review: For the Love of a Dog by Patricia B. McConnell, PhD

Welcome!

Welcome! Thanks for stopping by the Oh My Dog! blog.

A few quick facts about this blog:

While I will be writing about dogs – specifically my dogs Lucas and Emmett – I will not be writing as if I am Lucas and Emmett. The dog’s point of view thing works well for some bloggers, but it’s [...]
