10 DIY Dog Collar Ideas Your Pooch Will Love
There are so many collars out there that you can dress your adorable pooch in. There are collars you can buy, like spiked, shimmer, the best GPD dog tracking collars, or even leather collars that you believe best suit your furry buddy. Sometimes, we'll look and look for the perfect dog collar, but nothing will grab our attention. I know I looked through a ton of stores, looked online, and nothing caught my eyes. Since I was so fixated on a certain collar that I realized didn't exist, I wanted to see if I can make it on my own.

What Swimming With Sharks for the First Time Was Like. Top Story - May 2018.
Like any Jaws-era child, I grew up frightened of sharks. Don't get me wrong, I never believed they were mindless monsters who purposefully seek out humans to attack, but I definitely didn't trust them. So much so that as a little girl I wouldn't even swim alone in a pool. I was convinced one would somehow sneak through the filter and "get" me — clearly I didn't understand how filters worked yet.

Life With Dogs
I am taking a brief step away from the "My First Lesbian Relationship" story to tell you guys about our life with the dogs. I've said it many times AND defended it many more times, but Dodger is truly our first child! We have raised him together SINCE birth and it has been the best experience for us. Since moving, we have taken in my grandma's dog, Lola, and that has been interesting and fun at the same time. They are best friends and worst enemies all in one, but it is all love.

Doggo Love
We are all obsessed with dogs. It’s a universal concept that dogs are awesome. They are the superior pet, and they love us, but I don’t think we quite understand how much they love us. If you think about it, dogs are kind of forced to like us because we are their source of everything. Domestic dogs, that is. We feed them. We give them water. We give them a home, but it goes much deeper than that. Our dogs are out number one fans. They constantly show us unconditional love. My dog is basically my shadow. Where I go, she goes. This makes the need for a leash obsolete since she is always a few steps behind me. When I sleep, she sleeps. Whether is be for 20 minutes or all day, she will not wake up until my feet hit the floor. When I eat, she eats. She will literally only eat when I am sitting at the table eating beside her. When she has to be boarded while I am away for an extended period of time, she does not eat at all.

Can Cats See Color?
We all know that cats are constantly alert (if they're not sleeping) and go crazy for a laser pointer. But can they see that the laser pointer is red? A question that is often debated, if cats can cats see color or not is mostly derived from pure curiosity of cat owners. Do they know the color of my eyes? Can they tell which color their toys are?

Time, Patience, and Cuddles. Top Story - May 2018.
She cowers in the corner, surrounded by her plush igloo—her safety zone. She most likely will remain huddled inside it until the visitors leave, the lights are dimmed, and the staff go home. Only then will she dare to move, darting out from her igloo and straight to her food dish and water bowl.

My Battle for the Bathroom
Do you ever accidentally create a new dance when you’re standing behind someone by crossing and uncrossing your legs or swaying side to side? Then by some odd force of nature these movements cause you to start generating sweat which tingles a lot on your face. So, you try to focus your energy on something else, anything else but all you can hear are church members pouring drinks down the hall. You start to wonder if you should have stepped out of service early when the pastor claimed, “I’m almost done” an hour before he actually was. After standing in an excruciatingly long line for the woman’s restroom your bladder had all but completely combusted.
