Our sweet Brinkley showing off the Buddyrider dog bike seat. Boy we sure miss her....great memories ❤️

Today would have been Brinkley’s 17th birthday.
I haven’t been able to bring myself to post this because I have been trying everything I can to not think about it. Our beloved Brinkley (“Queen Boo Boo” to our daughters) passed away several weeks ago. She was an incredible gift to our family for almost 17 years. Although I knew it was coming, it has still been tougher than I imagined. I feel guilty for having so much grief over this when it is a normal part of life and so many others are struggling with things that are much more serious..... but, I just want to honor what a special dog Brinkley was and how much we will always love her. When we lost our Parker a little over a year ago, Brinkley was there to help us through it (myself in particular). The extra time with her was a blessing. Brinkley and I were closer than ever right up to that final breath in my arms. I will always remember our many adventures together, her feisty personality and her unwavering devotion. I want to thank my wife Jenny for encouraging us to get a dog all those years ago. When Brinkley first stumbled over and snuggled against my leg at just 6 weeks old, I knew from that moment she was special. Friends and family often poked fun at how I treated ‘that dog’ and I’ll admit that it probably was a little ridiculous at times. But, I don’t regret any of it. She earned the nickname our girls gave her. I could go on and on about Brinkley, our bond was once in a lifetime, but I’ll just leave it here…. I love you forever, Brinkley Girl.

Homeward Bound...

A dog owner was left "speechless" after his missing pooch was found more than 50 miles away at the family's old house. The owners of Cleo, a four-year-old Labrador, had not lived in Lawson, Missouri for two years. But that is where she ended up after going missing. According to TV station KMBC, Cleo...

With the extreme heat we are getting in parts of the country, please remember to walk or exercise your dogs during the coolest parts of the day only. Bring water, and ALWAYS check the temperature of the pavement before setting out. Pad burns and blisters are extremely painful and can quickly lead to infection. Below is an article we came across with some good tips courtesy of the Pet Health Network and Dr. Justine Lee...

Heat stroke, pad abrasions and soreness are just some of the risks of over-exerting your dog. Learn where the line is.

We lost our sweet boy Parker after nearly 15 years of love, loyalty and adventure. He was the only other male in this house full of girls. He was a goofball. He was my best buddy. It has actually been a few weeks now and I’m just finding the courage to look back on old pictures and videos of my special boy. It’s still incredibly hard walking into the office surrounded by everything he helped build for our family. Coming home, I still wait for him to slowly walk around the corner and hear the clickety-clack of his paws on the tile. I knew this day would come, but it hurt more than I could have ever imagined. Parker was here for our marriage, he was here for the birth of our 3 daughters, our first home, the start of our business, and many adventures in between. He was a goofy dog, and to be honest, not the most well behaved sometimes. But, to me he was the best dog in the whole world.
For those of you that don’t know, Parker was the inspiration for The Dog Outdoors and lead product tester. We rescued him as a puppy after not being able to walk away from his cage at the local animal shelter. For those of you that have lost a beloved pet, I’m sure you can understand when I say that I feel like a piece of me is gone. I know that one day I will look back on all the good times we had together and cherish all the pictures and videos, but to be honest, right now it just sucks. Parker gave my family unconditional love and I will forever be grateful to him. I LOVE you so much Parker Boy! I’ll love you forever.

These girls seriously love making little thank you treat baggies for our customers :) It's always the first thing they ask to do when they drop by the office. Little Laurel's treat bags don't always turn out quite right, so if you get one with a crushed treat or upside down thank you sticker, you will know it is SPECIAL from her ;)

Today is our friend/employee Matthew Novelli's last day at The Dog Outdoors. Matt and I have known each other since first grade and have been great friends ever since. He has been an integral part in helping The Dog Outdoors and all of our wonderful customers for more than 6 years of the 10 years we have been in business. Many of you may have spoken to Matt over the phone or read his personalized notes in your orders. You likely opened a box that Matt personally packed and your dog enjoyed a treat that he threw in just because. You may have even seen him in one of our goofy product videos :). I hope you will help Jenny and I say thank you to Matt for all his hard work and wish him well in the bigger opportunities coming his way. We couldn't have done it without you Matt!
