Purple Star emoji 13 items
Meet Mable, my brother's amazing 5-year-old Goldendoodle and my official 'niece' dog. As her favorite aunt, I consider it my main job to spoil her absolutely rotten! Over the years, I've searched for the absolute best, most durable, and cutest produc...

This is the OG of durable toys for a reason. Mable has some serious chew-power, and the KONG is one of the few things that lasts. I stuff it with some peanut butter or her favorite treats and freeze it. It's a lifesaver that keeps her smart Doodle br...

Mabel is a sucker for her ball!  She has a ball in every room of the house, AS WELL AS outside!  Is there a time she is not carrying a ball in her mouth?  Well… that is yet to be determined!

Mable is way too smart for her own good, so we need to keep her mind engaged. The Toppl is my favorite puzzle toy. It's gentler on her teeth than some other hard toys and the design makes it a fun challenge for her to get her snacks out. Plus, it's s...

I call this Mable's "quiet time" chew. When she needs to settle down, she'll grab her Benebone. The wishbone shape is brilliant—it makes it so easy for her to hold with her paws. It's incredibly durable and infused with real bacon flavor, which she i...

Now that our sweet Mable is 5, I've started thinking more about protecting her joints. I upgraded her bed to this memory foam orthopedic one, and she just melts into it. It provides amazing support for a larger dog and ensures she has a comfortable, ...

IYKYK- That beautiful Doodle fluff is high-maintenance! A good slicker brush is non-negotiable to prevent matting. This one is my favorite because it gets deep into her undercoat to remove loose fur without being too harsh on her skin. A 10-minute br... I know! I know! I'm the oddball who LOVES her doggie niece!

Part of spoiling Mable means making sure she eats better than we do! The Farmer's Dog makes fresh, human-grade food that's tailored to her specific needs. And let me tell you….Doodles have crazy dietary needs.  We found out the hard way when we gave her something that her tummy didn't agree with….. NEVER AGAIN!  Her coat has never been shinier or softer since my brother switched. It's the ultimate way to show your dog you love them from the inside out. We want to keep this sweet girl around as long as we can so we will feed her well!

We think these are the best for making Ms. Mable's brain work hard during those rainy days we can't get outside for our walks.  These are so fun to watch as she tries different combinations to get the treats that my brother has hidden inside the puzzle. If you have been wanting to try one for your sweet pup, just add this to your cart and be ready with your camera for some in...

Along with a cake, the birthday girl needs presents! I love getting a themed set of squeaky toys just for her party. A plush cake, a squeaky champagne bottle, or a little party hat toy—it just adds to the fun and makes for the absolute cutest picture...
