Dear Ben: When I get shots or blood tests, the humans tap my snout to distract me. Maybe you can bring someone along to annoy you so you won’t pay attention to what’s happening.

Mishu is shopping for some new grooming products @PetSmart …

If we buy her these luxurious looking bottles of natural shampoo (from Australia!) @rufusandcocousa do you think she’ll actually agree to take a […]

Dear Sunshine,

tbh I haven’t been great at making friends lately, so I can tell you what NOT to do: DON’T #bark at other dogs because you don’t like their smell, DON’T #refuse to let them smell your butt; […]

I’m usually happy to receive any food, any walk, any trip, any pet… But even I have my limits.  I *really* don’t like the new coconut oil dental chews I got recently…. (I like the regular mint ones a lot […]

Dear Mishu,  When is the last time you felt worried?  From,  Ashlee

Dear Ashlee,

I’m always a little worried about unfamiliar things and situations. I think it comes from my rough puppyhood (before I was res […]

It sounds like you need a purpose. Find one.  Love,   Mishu.

Before the day ends, take a moment to just be

Dear Jess: I don’t know anything about cats, but my friend @docandphoebe is a cat expert and she says NO – cats and dogs needs are really different. For instance, she doesn’t recommend taking your cat out for a […]

Dear Pete: It sounds like you are judging yourself based on standards that might be great for some people, but are probably not the right ones for you. Can you find other ways to measure your life besides money? […]

You know how when you’re excited for a movie to come out and you find yourself pretending to be a character in it? #JurassicWorld #FallenKingdom #bluejurassicworld

Dear Chris – I think you should tell him. And while you’re talking, find out if he has a good reason for that. And then talk some more. People seem to like to talk a lot.  Love, Mishu

Dear Trevor, When you have space: space in your house, space in your day, space in your wallet and space in your #heart 🎧💘😍🐕🐾🐩

What other advice do you have for Trevor, friends?

It’s time to ask for help – from your friends, from community members, and from strangers. There are organizations like cancercare.org that can help you get started. Or ask the social worker where you get your […]

So, according to my little friend, it all started in a family-owned pet store in Sao Paulo…

The family behind the WizSmart Puppy Pad had customers complaining that none of the puppy pads available were […]

Dear Sarah: I only sit when I want something. But it does seem like humans sit all the time. I guess people used to #smoke a lot and they didn’t know it was so bad for them, and now people sit too much and don’t […]

Dear Celine, It’s probably normal, but you’ll be happier if you just do you without trying to meet someone else’s #standards…..  Like me – I cannot fetch a ball – at all. So when my lab and retriever friends […]

Do not be afraid to explore and learn new things.

Dear Charli,

Try eating the same, plain food every day? That’s how I stay #slim (my food is really boring).

DEAR MISHU ON PET INFLUENCER MARKETING

Following the great time Dear Mishu had reporting on the best new dog products at the Global Pet Expo , she decided to continue her exploration by visiting the BlogPaws c […]

Dear Leo,

That’s a good question. Maybe you’re distracted so it takes longer than it should? Maybe you need to cut back on something? Try to find a way to have leave time for fun and just doing nothing every day […]
