Inspiring Millennial dog moms to live modern, meaningful lives.
Matt and I met in early 2013. By July 2013 we started renting a house together. In January 2016 we got engaged and now our lease is up in July. It’s been an incredible three years in our current house but it’s time to buy a home of our own. With our wedding around the corner on 12/29/16, it’s time to settle down and make our roots. It is also important to have a place that we love to call home. It’s happened so quickly all of a sudden, but now we’re buying a home!
This is super big news. Well, for me at least. I’ve been a HUGE Arizona Diamondbacks fan since I was 13 years old. I watch every game of every season. I’ve been to playoff games, too many spring training games and have waited long hours for player autographs. Two years ago, Matt and I took Wynston to “Bark in the Park,” a dog friendly baseball game at the D-back’s Chase Field. The proceeds benefited the AAWL and we had a designated area to sit during the game. It was amazing. I just wished that I could take Wynston to a game whenever I want – and that dream just came true.
So, let’s recap. January has been flippin’ nuts. My brother came home on leave from the Army, Matt and I got engaged, we booked our wedding venue, I attended the bridal expo and bought my dress, I had some dental work done, we bought a new SUV and I announced my BlogPaws Ambassador & Speaker news. After an insanely crazy last week of January, I decided I deserved a day of fun! Since Matt and I just bought a brand new Subaru Forester, we decided to head up north to Payson, AZ for a day of hiking with the pups! Our destination: Monument Peak Loop Trail.
Desert living is unlike anything else in the country. It’s hot, dry and full of critters that don’t typically hang out in a majority of the US. Many people will be traveling with their pets for BlogPaws 2016 in Phoenix, AZ so it’s important to know what could be lurking around the desert landscape. Here are some tips for protecting your dog from the demons in the desert!
Traveling to Arizona?! Well you’re in luck because this very diverse state is extremely dog friendly. Whether you’re up north in Sedona, cruising the Phoenix valley or scouring the south near Tucson, there is a fun dog friendly attraction you can enjoy almost anywhere!
