Fido's Freebie Friday Looks Forward to More Twitter Parties Posted: 27 Oct 2011 01:00 PM PDT by Carrie Boyko, CEB Who knew we could have so much fun chatting away on Twitter on a Sunday night? Last weekend's event brought me to my near exhaustion, yet a grand exhaustion that felt like a wonderful accomplishment. We answered lots of reader questions about #SafeHowlOween for dogs, gave away a bunch of great prizes and treats, and generally had a lot of fun doing it. Interested in joining us for more Tweeting fun? Watch for an announcement soon regarding our next event. You'll be certain to enjoy this theme and our nice collection of goodies coming your way. Speaking of goodies, it's time to open Fido's Freebie Friday up for linkups to giveaways, contests and sweepstakes for free pet products.  If you're visiting to see what's available, be sure to stop back by after linkups close.

Greener Dog Collars: Sustainable Bamboo Review & Giveaway Posted: 26 Oct 2011 09:07 PM PDT by Carrie Boyko, CEB © Carrie Boyko Fresh Bath. New Collar. Ahhh! Those of you who know me probably know I'm always looking for greener ways to live, both for my dogs and for our family. From composting food waste to flushable poop bags, we're all about what's best for the Earth and our health. When Tanner had the opportunity to test out a Bamboo dog collar from our Eco-friendly friends at PurePup Shop, we were all over it. This was just the thing after a long summer of sweaty walks and swims in the lake had left their signature scent on Tanner's collar. Meet Scruffy Our Stand-In Model With it's anti-bacterial properties, Bamboo resists odor naturally. We all know the smell that dog collars take on; it's not easy to eliminate by washing. Yet Bamboo will surprise you with its ability to release smells. © Carrie Boyko My Eco Dog, Tanner Our bamboo sheets are the softest and most durable set I've ever owned. And Bamboo is a much easier fabric to grow organically, making it the perfect prospect for clothing, sheets, towels, and even dog collars. Tanner's new collar is 70% organic Bamboo and 30% organic cotton--100% biodegradable. Bamboo is a highly sustainable fabric, largely because of its unbelievably fast growth and very little need for fertilization or pest control. And like other natural fabrics, it breathes better than its synthetic copycats. You'll love how quickly it dries and how nicely it washes. © courtesy Pure Pup Shop Are you ready to go shopping? Pure Pup Shop carries a wide range of products for your green doggie, from organic beds to bamboo bowls, recyclable dog toys and much more. Drop on by and take advantage of their free shipping on orders over $100. Maybe it's time to stock up for holiday gift giving.  © Carrie Boyko Eco Dog Collar In Great Fall Colors Before we start our giveaway, make sure you check in with Pure Pup on Twitter and Facebook where you can keep up with their new product arrivals and other news updates.

Sneaky Dog Pack Snacks Hide Out in Flush Puppies Giveaway Posted: 26 Oct 2011 09:01 PM PDT by Carrie Boyko, CEB © Carrie Boyko Don't Flush the Dog Pack Snacks! We've decided to give up teaching Tanner to flush his own doodie bags. Even though his Flush Puppies bags are flushable and dissolve in the sewer system water, all the other goodies that may end up in the toilet are not necessarily flushable. Therein lies the problem. © Carrie Boyko Tanner and Oliver Wait Permission to EAT their Dog Pack Snacks Today Tanner appeared to be practicing his DROP IT skills with a sample pouch of treats. "Wait! That doesn't go there Tanner!" Maybe he was trying to tell me something.  When I pulled out the Dog Pack Snacks he perked right up and was ready for a performance of most any kind that would bring him the desired reward. That's my boy! © courtesy Flush Puppies Speaking of rewards, this week you guys get one. Just for being loyal readers, you get to enter a giveaway from two of my sponsors: Dog Pack Snacks and Flush Puppies. Six winners will get a small pouch of Dog Pack Snacks (from a variety of flavor choices) and 3 wallet packs of Flush Puppies. Now you'll have rewards for your dogs after they take care of their business outside. Good doggie! I know that some of you would rather just purchase your own products and be done with it. In this case, let's cut to the chase. You can pick up your choice of flavors from Dog Pack Snacks, and select your Flush Puppies in rolls or wallet-packs at their site at the link above. Flush Puppies are also available at most Pet Supermarkets and  here through Amazon. If you don't see the Rafflecopter entry form here, just click on the title to refresh and it will appear just beneath my name:

Dog Lifestyle Reading: Magazine Giveaway Posted: 26 Oct 2011 09:01 PM PDT by Carrie Boyko, CEB © Carrie Boyko Dog Lifestyle Reading Don't worry. I'm not peddling subscriptions.

I'll announce the winners of the 8 FREE magazines on Friday, November 4. Happy tails!
