$5 for $20 worth of Rotations Dog Food

Today’s deal from DoggyLoot is a $20 coupon for Rotations dog food – for only $5! These unique recipes provide pets with a steady rotation of proteins, fibers, fruits, carbohydrates, fats, and essential vitamins that work together as a complete, rotating pet food system. Rotating your pet’s diet helps keep them interested in their daily meals instead of adding unhealthy additives or treats to get them to eat. What makes Rotations dog food unique is that from one recipe to the next, your pup will get to wolf down new fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and proteins instead of just the same old thing. This ensures your pet is getting true nutritional diversity and never becomes oversaturated with any one ingredient! It also helps prevent the development of allergies and intolerance dogs can acquire from imbalanced diets.

There are three unique Rotations recipes – Natural Chicken and Brown Rice, Wild Salmon with Peas and Carrots, and New Zealand Lamb and Potato. These all-natural foods contain no by-products or fillers (like corn wheat or soy) and no artificial flavors, colors or preservatives.

With your purchase of today’s deal you will receive a $20 coupon code to redeem for Rotations pet food. This coupon is good for a $20 discount off your purchase from Rotations pet food, not including shipping. Bags are available in three quantities – 5lbs, 15lbs, or 27lbs, and you can select sizes and quantities on the Rotations website.

As you’ve hopefully noticed, I recently redesigned my blog to give it a groovy new look. While there are many super-talented designers and agencies out there who do blog design makeovers, I just didn’t have the budget for anything other than a DIY project this time around. At first, this seemed like a completely overwhelming project but I tried to approach it as a learning experience and am pretty proud of how it turned out!

After much research and lots of posting my questions to forums and Facebook groups, I decided to go with the Genesis Framework from StudioPress. This is similar to the free themes you get with WordPress but includes so many more features and options that you can add and customize, to really make your blog or site look like it was professionally designed – without paying a fortune for it. When I purchased my theme package (Family Tree) it was $79.95 which is a pretty good deal…but read on because there is a very rare discount available this week only.

When you purchase the Genesis Framework, you also select a “Child Theme”. There are currently 40+ themes to choose from at StudioPress.com, for everything from mommy blogger designs, to very corporate looking layouts. The themes all allow you to change the background, header image, number of columns, etc. to personalize your blog. The way your site looks can be instantly updated using the child theme, while all of the professionally designed features (like Search Engine Optimization) and the core Genesis functionality remain untouched. That means that changing the look of your site is a snap — and you don’t need a designer or developer to do it. You don’t need any special skills, software or hardware, you just download the zip files after completing your purchase, and then use the WordPress dashboard to install them when you are ready for your makeover. StudioPress also offers really good support, and discounts on future theme purchases.

One thing I learned while doing my research was that StudioPress almost NEVER offers promo codes or discounts to NEW customers. The exception to that rule is that this Thanksgiving Weekend, you can get 25% Off and grab a new look for your blog or site.

If you aren’t quite ready to change your blog now, don’t worry. When you purchase a new theme, you receive a download link and can save the zip files to your hard drive until you are ready to install them in WordPress. So all you really need to do is pick out a cool new look, buy it now to lock in this rare discount and then take your time until you are ready to use it. Or you can give a new theme as a gift to a special blogger on your holiday list!

5 Pro Tips for Taking Great Pet Photos

SLC Pawtography Pro Tips for Great Pet Photos

I recently caught up with my pal Uschi, who just happens to be a professional pet photographer and mom to super-pup Sawyer (photo above). With the holidays coming up, I asked if she would share a few tips to help all of us pet parents capture some special shots of our own fur kids. Here’s her expert advice on simple tips we can all try ourselves…

1. Pick the right light:  Ideally you would want to take the pictures outside to take advantage of the natural light. If you need to shoot inside, avoid the flash. Instead, take the photos in an area with lots of available light, for example by a large window or a glass door.
2. Be aware of the background:  Outside, find an area without buildings or other distractions. Inside, remove clutter or put up a backdrop.
3. Make sure your pets are relaxed and not paying attention to the camera:  Use treats or toys to distract them from the camera and try to catch them behaving naturally. If possible, have a second person around to keep the pet’s attention.
4. Use a fast shutter speed:  Since animals twitch and jump for unknown reasons at the most unexpected moments you should shoot at the fastest shutter speed possible. Either set your camera to shutter priority and set the highest speed or, if your camera doesn’t have shutter speed control, try the sports or action setting.
5. Most importantly, keep your camera around:  Have your camera handy whenever you can so you can catch your pet doing the things they do naturally. You can spend a lot of time staging pictures and have your pets pose, but you’ll often get better photos just by waiting for your pets to express their unique personality.

You can visit Uschi and check out her gallery at SLC Pawtography. And be sure to LIKE Sawyer the Wander Dog on Facebook!

SLC Pawtography is based in Salt Lake City, but all work is done on location, where your pets are most comfortable. For more details and pricing please contact Uschi at info@slcpawtography.com or call 801-230-3773.
