Hello and Welcome to our Newsletter,
August has arrived, bringing sunshine, beach adventures, backyard fun, and plenty of tail-wagging memories to make with your four-legged best friend. This month, we're sharing some easy frozen treat recipes that will keep your pup cool during the hottest days of summer, an update on Daisy's Cause and what our favorite pup has been up to this summer. Whether you're strolling the shoreline or relaxing at home, Daisy's Dog Collars is here to help your dog look great and feel their best all season long.
Daisy's Cause is moving right along! This month, we're proud to continue raising funds for Shore Saves Animal Rescue in our home state of New Jersey. Every purchase helps support their incredible work rescuing, rehabilitating, and finding loving homes for animals in need. You can learn more about them at shoresaves.com. Thank you for helping us make a difference, one wagging tail at a time!
Daisy has been thoroughly enjoying her summer. She spends her days lounging around the house, rolling around in the grass, going for walks and tagging along on our bike rides. Her favorite activity is playing frisbee at the beach in the evenings. We've lost a few to the ocean, until we found one that floats and still tosses really well. It's from the company Ruffwear. If your pup likes playing frisbee on the beach, we highly recommend their's.
These are a few of Daisy's favorite frozen treats. The recipes are easy to make, require just a few ingredients, and are a fun way to help your pup stay cool during the dog days of summer! We hope your pup's enjoy them as much as Daisy does.
