Peg Rio - 7/25: Rio's Top 5


Hello again friends,

I’ve only been retired for a few weeks, so I know I’ve still got lots of things to discover, but I thought I’d give you a rundown of a few of my favorite things


1.   Toys that squeak:  

I am discovering new toys every day, but paws down my favorite remains squeaky snake.  He is SOOOOO squeaky!!!!   
First we play!


Then we cuddle.


2.  ALL. THE.  FOODS.

Soft foods, hard foods, dog foods, people foods (if foster mom would only let me), crunchy treats, chewy treats.  You get the idea.   #foodie

     

3.  KONG

What is a Kong, you may ask?  It is vehicle of magical deliciousness.  My foster mom puts some kibble inside it, then seals the top with soft food and puts in the freezer.  When she leaves for work, I get my Kong in my crate.  It’s so good; it keeps me occupied for a long time.   Why do I love it so much?  See # 2 above. #foodie





 4.  SOFT BEDS:  I am still spending some time in my crate, but as I've gotten adjusted to retired life, I'm really digging these soft beds here at my foster home.  So cushiony.


5.  PEOPLE:   I get along well with my foster siblings, but I am definitely a "people person" and love to hang out near my foster mom.  She says I have some creeper tendencies, but I don't know what that means.  


Whatcha doing foster mom?  Don't mind me standing over your shoulder.
Need any help?  Need any snuggles?
PS - Coca Cola did not pay for this product placement. 


Well friends, that's all for now.  Until next time!
