MakeBooksOnline.com gets a Review on Swanky Pup

Adena, from The Swanky Pup, did a wonderful review on my business.  I created a book for her about her dog Bernie, so she could truly see what I was talking about.  Turns out she loved it!  How could you not love having a book about your pet?!
Thanks Adena for your support.  I hope you'll enjoy the book for years to come!

Celebrate Dad this year with a Storybook!

This is a picture taken on the day we brought Oscar home.  (That was almost 7 years ago!)  I refer to Dave as "Dad" and I'm "Mom".  With Father's Day coming up, I believe that creating a Storybook telling your Dad just how much you love him would make THE ultimate gift.   We have a great package on until the end of the month, where you can save a lot of money and have a whole year to create your projects.  Why not make one of them a book for your Dad!   CLICK HERE to get the Buy More and Save Flyer.  Discover the magic of Storybooking and save at the same time.  How cool is that?!

Squirrels are cool!

This is such a sweet photo.  Makes you wonder where all those elderly animals go to retire in the woods!

Peternity...for grieving pet owners

This is a very sweet blog.  Colleen, the Blog creator, describes Peternity as a "pet loss community for the grieving pet owner".  This is the kind of pet lovers blog that you can spend a lot of time exploring and still find more when you return.  She also has an online store for Pet Memorial products, definitely wo worth checking out.

And you know you can always celebrate the love for your Pet through Storybooking, with the www.MakeBooksOnline.com system.  I have pre-designed templates for you to use too, making it easy for you to create your storybook.   I'm also available to create the book for you.   Power to the Pets and the love we have for them - and the love they give to us.

Dog Moms

There are many women, like myself, who do not have children of the two legged kind.   I find it very sweet that more and more dog-owning women are referring to themselves as "Dog Moms".  I found this grooming & daycare business in Jamestown, NY, affectionately called Dog Moms.  Isn't this an adorable photo?!
I am sending them a copy of a storybook I have created about a beloved pooch and they'll be showing it off to their customers.  Here's to being a Dog mom!!

April Publishing Specials are here!

Oscar had his stitches out today but has one more bandage wearing stint for another few days.  I gave him a mini-mohawk today.  It'll attract the ladies at the dog park.  But it's coming off tomorrow.

April Specials are now posted on my MakeBooksOnline website.  Start celebrating your pet in a storybook project.  I can show you how!

Update on Oscar + Cute Rescue Video

My dog Oscar is doing well, as he recovers from his injury.  However, he's quite bummed out that he isn't able to do the things he loves to do; like fetch, go to the dog park and run up and down the backyard while on "cat patrol".  It'll take a few weeks before he's back to normal.  I am so grateful that he is going to be okay.  I can't imagine life without him.
This is a sweet video from a Rescue Group in Kansas. They used the same song choice that I have for my Pet Book Lady Montage, which I thought was very cool.
Check out the latest specials on my online publishing site and create a book about your pet today!

My worst nightmare....My dog getting hit by a car

On Friday, my worst nightmare came true, when I watched in horror, my poor little Oscar being hit by a car.  It all happened so fast.  We were on the edge of our dog park, when Oscar suddenly bolted across the street upon seeing one of his buddies.  A car coming up the street had no time to stop.  I ran out onto the street, very upset to see my dog bleeding and in pain.   It's a "Dog Mom's" worst nightmare.
Fortunately Oscar suffered minor injuries compared to what could have been.  It would appear he rolled under the car a couple of times and caught his front leg on something sharp underneath.  His skin was very badly torn and he's had some tendon damage.  But no fractures, no head injuries, no internal bleeding...nothing life threatening.  Thank goodness.  So he's home now and on the mend.  And I'm so grateful he's still here.  I love him with all of my heart.

Dog's Life Magazine - Lots of cool resources

I subscribe to a Dog's Life, an e-newsletter that gives me ideas on how I can help people celebrate the love for their dogs through Storybooking.   I'm a big fan of electronic newsletters, given the fact we don't waste paper plus all the info is right there in your computer.  And not somewhere where your dog can get at it and rip it to shreds.  (That is one of my dog's specialties)
