Raise a Green Dog!

Raise a Green Dog!


Green Dog Egg Nog!

Posted: 22 Dec 2009 04:05 AM PST

Who doesn't like a good cup of Nog...by the Holiday tree, roaring fire, inside with our favorite humans, keeping warm from the cold and snow!

Even us pups can enjoy a good cup of Nog, here's our favorite recipe for Green Dog Egg Nog!

  • 1 container plain low fat, organic yogurt
  • 1 jar of organic baby food (seasonal veggies and meat is our favorite), or you can make your own by adding some boiled unseasoned chicken, carrots, green beans, a little yam or plain pumpkin to your food processor and blend smooth).
  • 1 free range egg
  • 1 1/2 cups filtered water

Blend all ingredients and serve in stainless steel bowls with a sprinkling of ground flax seed, and top with a nice banana slice. Be sure and refrigerate unused portions.

It's a great refreshing treat after a day of playing in the snow!

Giving back this Holiday season!

One of the biggest beliefs we have about being green, is giving back to those less fortunate!

See that little shelter below? That's where I was staying at the Southside Animal Shelter when I first met my Mum the day she adopted me.

I was there with my biological Mum, and my four brothers and sisters. My sisters were adopted first, then Mum saw the pic below of me and my brother on Petfinder.com, and she immediately jumped in the car and drove the hour to the shelter and adopted me on the spot.

The rest is history....

Throughout the year, we gather up any profits we make through our blogs and websites, and then donate 10% of those profits to a no-kill rescue or shelter.

This year, we've taken that a step further. As part of Johann's Second Annual Howling Howliday Giveaway, we decided to provide a way for those that have supported us throughout the year to donate to the very same shelter that gave me my second chance - the Southside Animal Shelter.

If it weren't for these nice folks in Indianapolis, I wouldn't have my furever, wonderful, green home...and wouldn't be able to bring you all the helpful, green information that we do each week.

We set a goal of $500 to help the Southside Animal Shelter, and have only reached a little over 25% of our goal so far.

Can you help? Just a few $$ would go a long way in helping this shelter rescue and find loving, furever homes for some pawsome pups - just like they did for me.

If you can spare a few...click on the donate button below. I know that the pups at the Southside Animal Shelter will be forever grateful!

If you'd like to donate through PayPal directly to Southside, click here for their donation page...and make sure you tell 'em Johann sent ya :)
