I recently told you about Sweet Relish, the new social shopping community, and how they are helping rescue dogs by making a donation of $1 for each new subscriber when you join. It’s super fun, very similar to Pinterest, and just as addictive! If you missed it, you can read all about it here.

Sweet Relish Box

Several of you wanted to know more about the Sweet Relish Box we received, based on the “Adopted Dog Take Home List” we created using Sweet Relish. We’re super excited about it because the rescue group we’re supporting, Have a Heart, will receive the same box for sweet boy Luther to take home with him when he’s adopted…hopefully VERY soon! You can see adorable photos of Luther and connect with him at http://www.facebook.com/AdoptLuther.

One of our favorite items in the Take Home Box is the Thundershirt Dog Anxiety Wrap. Daisy is about 50 pounds and wears a large. It’s important to get a good fit since it’s the gentle pressure of the shirt that creates the calming effect. They come in sizes from XXSmall to XXLarge so there is a perfect size for every dog out there. And at $39.95 it’s a great deal. I don’t know about you, but I’d pay any price to make Daisy feel relaxed and prevent the stress and anxiety so many dogs suffer from.

Discover, Share and Shop with Sweet Relish

Sweet Relish helps you to create lists, browse, and buy products you love. What makes it so special is that, similar to the way Pinterest works, you can share your lists with friends, and view lists created by other people, which is a sure way to discover sweet new stuff you didn’t even know about!  Whenever you find an item online that you might want to buy in the future, you just click the relish button in your browser and add the item to one of your shopping lists. You can also use it to make a wish list if you want to drop some hints to a special someone about what to get you for your birthday or other special occasion.

And speaking of a special someone, meet Luther! Isn’t he gorgeous??? He’s a rescue dog, saved from death row and being cared for by Have a Heart rescue group in South Florida. Luther is a Lab/Hound mix…just like what we guess Daisy to be (she’s a rescue dog, too), and we really hope someone will adopt him soon and make him a part of their forever family. He’s about three and we hear he’s great with kids!

Take Home List for Adopted Shelter Dogs

I’m using Sweet Relish to create the perfect “Take Home List” for Luther, so when he gets adopted, his new family will know about some very special items to help him feel comfortable as he adjusts to his new life and home. It actually makes a great guide for anyone adopting a rescue dog…getting so close to death row, and spending so much time in shelters and foster homes, these dogs deserve some special care! I based my list on our own experiences adopting Daisy and included some items we found helpful in her adjustment, as well as some new items worth trying.

I was checking out a new clothing site I heard about recently, ModCloth, and had no real plans to blog about it, but I kept finding all these super cute cat and dog items and had to tell someone! That’s one nice thing about having a blog…always someone to tell when I discover cool new stuff!

Anyway, ModCloth is an online store that sells clothing, gifts and accessories from independent designers, and also carries a huge selection of vintage-inspired, retro and one-of-a-kind items.  In addition to an amazing selection of dresses, bathing suits and shoes, they’ve also got quirkier items all you cat and dog people are sure to love, like magnets, books, mugs and even a “catula”! That’s a spatula shaped like a cat. How cute is this cat bag???

Anyway, if you’re the kind of person who likes to express your own unique and original style AND hate the mall, you will love browsing ModCloth for indy brand clothing and so much more! Just don’t start looking when you’re in a hurry because it’s super easy to lose track of time with so much cool and unexpected stuff to browse!
