Puppy Love with Purina ONE's 28 Day Challenge

We have a small (human) family - really - holidays end up just being me and Larry. That said - with the holidays approaching - I think of the "rest" of my family - the four-legged wing of the family! I'm not sure I can even express the love I have for my dogs. I always had cats and I thought I was a cat person. I loved them - they slept with me - I doted on them - even bought this ginormous cat tree thing that was more a forest than a tree. But then - my now-husband - said, "Let's get a dog." And my world changed. Now - we have two dogs and we make sure that they are as happy and healthy as we are by feeding them quality dry dog food! #OneSmartDifference #CollectiveBias 

Now we have two dogs - this one is Wiener - my husband named him. It's really fun to go to the vet - when they announce: WIENER JOHNSON, WIENER - WIENER JOHNSON. He actually has many names: Wiener, Weenie, WeenieBoo, BooBear, Boozy, Bielzeboob, Booseefus - you get the picture. 

This is Mysty - her name was originally Mystery because nobody at the rescue knew where she came from.  But - Mystery didn't come out right - so I shortened it to Mysty. She's my big baby. Those videos of military personnel coming home and the dog flips out - yeah - my dog does that when I go to the bathroom.

I'm always on my laptop and apparently Wienie is now able to get on as well. :-) I've been so busy with work and my blog that finding time for shopping isn't always that easy. I decided to check out Amazon.com and their Amazon Prime (free shipping - woohoo) and order the dog's food online. Purina ONE has a 28-day challenge to try their Smartblend dry dog food and see if there are any changes in my pups.

I chose the Purina ONE Smartblend: Chicken and Rice Formula - because our dogs are 2 & 5. They also have a Smartblend: Vibrant Maturity for 7+ Senior dogs.

They love to run and play outside! We're lucky enough to have a nice fenced yard for them to romp around whenever they want to. What difference will we see with Purina ONE in their energy level?

The Purina ONE difference page gives you some ideas of what to look for in your pup's health:

• Day 1+: Taste: When your dog loves the taste of his food, it can make all the difference
• Day 7+: Energy: An optimal blend of ingredients provides the energy your dog needs
• Day 14+: Digestibility: Highly digestible food helps more nutrients go to work inside your dog
• Day 21+: Skin & Coat: Balanced nutrition supports a beautiful coat and healthy skin
• Day 21+: Bright Eyes: Your dog’s eyes are a window to his health
• Day 28+: Dental Healthy: Great nutrition and crunchy kibble support strong teeth and healthy gums

And look at those faces! Bright eyes mean a healthy dog - I know that I'm doing them good when they have bright happy eyes. I might have been holding a handful of Purina ONE at the time - it has these meaty chunks that the dogs love - a handful of that and I have their attention for days. 

I really like Purina ONE because the first ingredient is real chicken! I've been feeding it to my cats for years. 

Got the dogs some new food #purinaone and Daisy was sure it was for her! #onesmartdifference #shop
