Grandma Bowser's Country Oven Bisquits - For Very Good Dogs and Yorkies Too.

When the doorbell rang the Yorkies went nuts as usual. They didn't know what was on the other side of the door. A boxful of treats for them...I bet they feel bad about all that noise. Barking like they did at the Mailman...he might not bring them any more boxes of treats.
And these weren't just any treats..they were "Grandma Bowser's Country Oven Bisquits". They are suppose to be for "Very Good Dogs", so the Yorkies are out of luck...ok...I'll give them their treats.As I was opening the box...Carly started to dance around like music was on and it was her time to shine. Her nose must have told her what was ahead for her stomach. We got 2 of the 4 different varieties of biscuits..I mean bisquits, that they sell. Hey as good as these treats are I'm not gonna change the name of them, bisquits they are. Doesn't the label tell you all you need to know...we loved the phrase "It's Like A Granola Bar For Dogs". They smelled fantastic...we were tempted ourselves...but the Yorkies would have had a hissy fit for sure.Make sure you go to http://www.grandmabowsers.com/ and check out their bisquits...if your dogs are like ours they will love them too. Especially the Peanut Butter flavor...smells just like Grandma made them...wait she did.

Back in October of 1990 Grandma Bowser baked her first batch of "Country Oven Bisquits". She used the finest, all natural ingredients she could find because she loves all of her little "grandpups". Just look at Tinkerbells face...you can see the love in her eyes..or is that the terrier in her looking wild and eager...anyway...she loved both flavors. So the treats were a great success for all of the Yorkies.

And Shiloh, yes we are going to get more....let's just use the one's we have....we might try the Cheese and Bacon one's next time..ok. And if you start feeling older, we can order the Senior Formula one's that have Glucosamine and Chondroitin, along with a higher fiber...just what the old dog needs.

Grandma Bowser's Bisquits are only available over the internet...and with each bag ordered the price of shipping goes down...but if your really smart you'll order with friends and get 7 bags of bisquits...then the shipping is free...everyone likes free....so do your homework...check out their website, share it with your friends and put together a order for everyone and their dogs to enjoy. Now I have to go feed the Yorkies their bisquit I promised them if they didn't bother me while I was on the computer talking about them and how they liked the biscuits..I mean bisquits..."Grandma Bowser's Bisquits"....For Very Good Dogs, and Yorkies too.

To Breed Or Not To Breed Our Yorkies? How "Yorkie Splash and Shine" Helped Answer The Question

When life sends you lemons your suppose to make lemonade...when the road ahead of you is bumpy you are to hold on and give it gas, and when you can't decide on breeding your Yorkie...the dog angels send you a sign...well in this case...a package of "Yorkie Splash and Shine" shampoo and conditioner.We had been talking about letting Carly have a "date" and having a litter for this summer. Some people were asking about the next litter, getting one of our pups, when we planned to breed again...this had to be the sign we were waiting for. And a refreshing and helpful sign it was. This shampoo and conditioner is made from organic ingredients and Carly smells so nice...so, so nice. And with the sample pack we got comes a detangler spray that we will be testing on Shiloh...his fur is like barbed wire if we let it go too long and usually we do. It's our fault not his...he's a Yorkie...loves to play and roll and roll...if we don't brush him...it's our fault. So if this helps him we will let you know later...right now we are working on Carly...and her "date".

The shampoo smells so good....and we know that it will take more than just one bath to really do it any justice...on the website it says 3-4 weeks, not 3-4 minutes...it's good shampoo, but not a miracle. But we got really great results, so we believe already. And look at Carly...relaxed and hoping.

She was and is a great Yorkie Mommy...her last litter was beautiful and she did a great job taking care of them. So how can we not breed her...people are asking about puppies....we love having puppies...and the Yorkie angels made our package arrive just in time to get Carly beautiful and ready.

Ok...ok..Carly, we see you...and this was before the bath...she asked us for a bath...maybe this stuff is magical after all. It made Carly want a bath...or was it the possibility of a "date".

So we will probably be breeding our Yorkie this weekend or very soon...between our Yorkie Splash and Shine products and the great results we got from them...it must be the world asking for more "Waterside Yorkies" to be born.

And if we don't breed Carly we still have found a great product that will help our Yorkies and others we know. We really liked the early results and will let you know later on how it works on our dogs. And we will post also about the detangler...Shiloh is perfect to test that one for sure.

Thanks Yorkie Splash and Shine for getting our order out to us in such a timely matter. We are amazed by the way our Yorkies fur feels and looks.

Perfect for a Yorkie "date" night or just everyday care of your pet. So please check them out at www.yorkieshampoo.com/ and tell them that we sent you..and let us know how you like it too. Thanks for stopping by and please come back and check on us.

I wonder if Carly needs a litte "Barry White" music to set the mood? I bet she doesn't...she's a lover from the get go.

Spiffy Pooches, Bows for Yorkie Fashion

The Yorkies got a package full of fun...well fun for us, and took time to model some of the items for us. We found a pet merchandise website called Spiffy Pooches that sells collars, charms, bows and all kinds of great items for your dogs needs.
Spiffy Pooches also sells wholesale to other online boutiques, pet shops, groomers and merchants. To really appreciate their accessories you really have to go check out their website.
Tinkerbell tried to pose for us, but she hates...I mean hates to have her picture taken. She will never make it as a dog model..the world will have to just miss out. She settled down a little outside, as we tried to get her to pose...take it quick...she's on the move. And as playful and wild as she can be...the bow stayed in her hair...elegant and beautiful.

Shiloh even took a turn as a model...he doesn't mind the camera....he only minds wearing things...hats, clothes or bows...but he was a trooper and it looks great on him. I think he doesn't feel a boy should be wearing bows in his hair or something like that....but hey we were able to snap this one before he moved away.

So Carly didn't get a turn this time, but will be wearing some of the new bows we got. Tinkerbell and Shiloh enjoyed all the attention and did a great job for us. We have more pictures but didn't want to post them all.

So take a minute and go check out www.spiffypooches.com/ and see what they have to offer. And if you place a order please let them know you found them on our blog. Their customer service is open Monday thru Friday, 10am - 7pm and will answer any of your questions very quickly. We hope you enjoy their accessories as much as we did.

Here's the bows we got..the Yorkies will wear them and be very fashionable for sure. Have a great day and thanks for stopping by. We hope you will take the time to come back and visit with us. I hope you enjoy all of the sites we have found and will take the time to visit them all, and let us know how you liked them. Email us at watersideyorkie@yahoo.com and tell us your experience shopping at them.

Licks and Giggles Boutique - A Place Where The Waterside Yorkies Love To Shop

Shiloh and Carly were very happy when the UPS man rang the doorbell and delivered their package. They were like 2 kids at Christmas...they must have smelled the fun inside that box.
We had found a new site to try some treats and toys for our Yorkies, "Licks and Giggles Boutique". A very cool site that is run by people who think of their animals as family...who would ever think like that...oh yeah..we do.
The site is full of everything that you would want for your animals and for you too. The site is easy to use and even has a gift registry and gift certificates. Who wouldn't love a gift certificate from this place...unlimited ideas for your cat or dog to eat, play or sleep in.
We got a few treats and some toys for the Yorkies...and boy did they have fun with them. The toys were just the right size for the Yorkies to play with. And the treats were honey bbq flavored...they made me hungry smelling them.The small stuffed toys had candy themes on them and were just the right size for our Yorkies mouthes. Shiloh loves the tootsie roll one, wherever it is...Shiloh is very near. Tinkerbell and Carly play with the other two, they share better than Shiloh does.

Here's Shiloh, as usual, on the Redskin blankets and with his tootsie roll toy nearby....you might think this was staged....it wasn't...he's that spoiled believe me. The Yorkies let us live with them it feels like at times.

So take the time and go check out "Licks and Giggles Boutigue" and have some fun looking and shopping for your furry loved one. And please tell your friends about them too, they'll appreciate you letting them in on this great site.
As they say on their webpage "Whether looking for that special outfit or accessory to the toys or basic necessities to make your pet feel at home, look no further than Licks and Giggles". How true, how very true indeed.

Now stop reading this and go to http://www.licksandgigglesboutique.com/ and have some fun...go on...they're waiting for you.

Enjoy The Day, Remember It's Meaning, And Take Time To Pray.

ALL THE YORKIES OF WATERSIDE WANT TO WISH ALL OF OUR READERS A VERY HAPPY EASTER. AND HOPE THAT THEY WILL TAKE TIME TO REMEMBER WHY WE CELEBRATE THIS IMPORTANT HOLIDAY AND TIME.

Yorkies with "happytails"

Well we never would have believed it if we hadn't seen it for ourselves...our Yorkies loved to have a bath...no not just a bath...a spa treatment. We recently found a site that we were eager to try, Happytails Canine Spa Line . A place not just to owners of pets to find everything they need to care for their animals, but a place for the truly pampered pet....like ours and like yours. Their link can be found on our main page or just click the highlight area above. Ok...so Tinkerbell doesn't look very happy in this photo...but believe me she really did enjoy being rubbed and washed. And when she was all done, she pranced around the house for days like a showdog. And she smelled so clean and her fur was like silk.

We also got some "Sleepytime Tonic" for Shiloh...the King of drama when it comes to car rides. He almost turns green when we put him in the car...hates it. We have only tried short rides so far...and he seems to be better...we'll have to blog again later when we take a long trip...but what's really funny is that the other two Yorkies want drops too...they love the stuff...must be made with liquid beef or something...we'll get back to you with the results of our first long trip.

The "Fur Butter" has the perfect name...and it is true..goes on like butter. And when your done your dog will have the softest fur around. The "Fur Butter" conditions your dogs coat and repairs any damage to it. It also will help your dog with any itchy skin problems also. There is oatmeal and aloe in it to further solve any skin problems....highly recommended for Yorkies who have the itchy's.

We also got a bottle of "Dry Dog" instant clean, a miracle in a bottle. Now if your dogs are like ours they will find something to get into that makes them stink to high heaven...and always away from home. With "Dry Dog" instant clean you just spray a little on and it starts to clean without water or fuss. It's not a complete dog wash in a bottle, but will eliminate and clean your dog until you can take them home and wash them completely...we have used this on Carly, our sniffer, and she has given it a major testing...it passed with flying colors...it not only eliminated the smell, but broke down the odor. Leaving Carly refreshed and renewed, until we could get her home to further bathe her. Everyone needs a bottle of this stuff in their car, their purse, and just around the house for that time when company is coming and your dog gets into something right before they get there.

But the best thing we found was "Bubbles 'N Beads" shampoo and conditioner....it has little beads

packed with conditioning vitimins. They penetrate the fur and burst against their skin, delivering the nutrients where they are needed most, at the follicle. The result is unbelievable, a healthy and shinier coat that smells so wonderful that you and the dog will look forward to the next time to use it. It has 14 amino acids that improves coat shine and strength, makes the coat softer to touch and helps repair damaged skin cells...and all with a scent that you will love and the dog will too. Usually our Yorkies will rub the smell off whatever we wash them with...not with this shampoo...they love it and we do too.

So take a minute of three and go check them out..."happytails" is a fitting name...it really did put a happytail on our Yorkies. They have a wide range of products that we look forward to trying and when we do we will let you know what we tried. Your dog deserves a spa treatment don't they? Try a variety of things and give them the love that they give you. And remember to tell them you read about them on our blog, we would like them to know that we are spreading the word about them. And once your order comes, email us and let us know how it went. Good luck and now go place your order...invite your friends and have a spa day for dogs at your house...yours friends will thank you for it. Have fun and come back and visit us again won't you. And please link on and become one of our followers...we love to see that list grow and grow. We are averaging 600-700 readers a week and want to thank all of them for taking time to read us. We enjoy looking and seeing where everyone is from and who they are. We even go and read their blogs if they have one. A network of pet owners and lovers who enjoy reading about things related to their animals. Take care and have a great day.

Winter 2010...A Yorkies "Tail" of the Snow Storm

Ok....first that stupid gopher didn't see his shadow...what oh yeah that stupid groundhog..whatever...all I know is that I gotta survive 6 more weeks of winter....hey I'm only 3 pounds and only a inch off the ground...I'm staying in my dogcave...nice and warm here. My master is from the D.C. area...I heard on the news that they got swamped with 20 plus inches of snow....poor dogs up there.

I can't even think of trying to go do my business in weather like that...look at this street up in D.C. where do the dogs go?

Here have a seat and think about it....that's like 3 times my height...makes me cold thinking about it.

They said that the Washington Monument is at the top of this picture...I don't see it...I think someone took it. They better bring it back too.

Here's some tourists walking by the White House...a fitting name today...hope they get inside soon...too cold for even people to be outside.

And here's the President and Vice-President shoveling the White House sidewalk...you would think they would get someone else to do all that...but my Master has to shovel his sidewalk too.

We only got rain this time...we got 6 inches last week and I hated going outside...I am only 2 years old and I had never seen snow like this before....and I really don't want to again. I'm a Yorkie not a Husky...I like warm days and warm nights...not snow.

That's Shiloh's favorite fire hydrant if you know what I mean...in the snow he hopes around like a rabbit...can't find that perfect spot in the snow.

All this yard and nowhere to go....and I had to go bad too. But my owners have alot of patience and love us...so they wait with us no matter how long it takes.

They thought by putting me in this pile of snow I would learn what snow was...I already knew...it's fluffy rain but colder and harder on a Yorkie...now get me out of this snow and back inside where a Princess belongs.

I hope everyone is doing ok up in D.C. and that that rat...I mean groundhog was wrong...I would like Spring to be here maybe by the end of this month, or early next month. I can only hope, but until then I will lay on my Redskin blanket and dream of warmer times. Thanks for stopping by and we'll talk to you later.....Tinkerbell.

2010 Started With A Bang, Or Was It A Boom

Well, the new year has begun....we hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and have begun the year with all their wishes coming true.We visited family, had family come to the house and enjoyed the time spent with all. Below is a group shot of our Yorkies....4 generations of "Waterside Yorkies". I'll introduce them so the new readers will know who's who.

On the right is Zoe, our senior Yorkie and great-granddog. She's 13 years young and going strong. She loves to come visit us, she lives with my wife's mom, they keep each other company.

Next to Zoe is Carly, her granddaughter, who is 4 years old and the wild one of the bunch. She gave us our last litter of pups this past spring, 5 puppies out of her little 4.5 pound frame...she was a excellent mommy. Beside her is Tinkerbell, Carly's daughter from her first litter, who is 2 years old and acts like a puppy...silly little dog, but we love her. She is truely the baby of the family, yet can hold her own with the older Yorkies. And finally, is our only male Yorkie and the King of the house...Shiloh, who is 6 years old and the protector of the house. Even with a alarm system we feel more safe since no one can come within a mile of the house without Shiloh hearing them and barking. He is our true Yorkie lap dog and everyone who visits loves him to death. So this is our "Waterside Yorkies" group shot of 2009, 4 generations of Yorkshire Terrier love, our "Herd of Yorkies".
We also got to spend a bunch of time with our non-fur babies....Maddy came to visit Nana and Pawpaw. She has grown into a very beautiful young lady, and at 4 months is already turning the boys heads. We love her "That Girl" hair...and her smile still melts my heart and always will. I see my mom in her eyes and on her face...Matt's Memaw would have loved this little girl and is watching over her from Heaven I know. We look forward to spring and watching her start to walk around.

We also got to see our grandson, Ryder, who just turned 1 not too long ago. He has grown so much this past year. Walking, talking and running the house...he's moved into the next daycare room and I believe will be a politician...always wanting to meet and greet everyone he see's.

Opening gifts is very tiring, he had to have a snack to keep the motor running strong. This spring will be a very fun time for us, we will enjoy watching and playing with both of our grandkids. After all, we are just kids ourselves...well we think so.
So we survived the holidays, enjoyed the holidays and hope yours were special too. And as I sit with the Yorkies I reflect on what a wonderful time we all spent together.

Oh, yeah...did you heart a big thud not too long ago....guess who fell over Tinkerbell and hurt his foot....2 guesses and it wasn't Nana...yep the big guy got tripped up by the littliest Yorkie in the house. She's only 3 pounds but she took me down fast..like a tree falling...with a loud thud at the end...like the old Roadrunner cartoons except I didn't have a small umbrella to break my fall.

Here's Carly looking over the damage and trying to play doctor...or maybe she's trying to play lawyer...anyway, she took time out to check me out.

Yes Carly I know I have a large black object on my left foot...it's a gift from your daughter..and no I'm not going to press charges...she didn't mean to trip me up. She just has to learn not to run between our feet when we come into a room, any room, but she acts like we have been gone for years. She loves us so much...a very big heart in a 3 pound dog.

So that's my first update for 2010...I will be alright...just need to left it heal and soon I will be chasing the grandkids and the furkids again. Thanks for stopping by and remember to hug your dog and tell them you love them..they feel our love as much as we feel theirs..Happy New Year and please come back and visit again real soon.
