Pup-Peroni with MaQ-eroni

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of The J.M. Smucker
Company. The opinions and text are all mine.

With my crazy hectic schedule as a full-time writer, photographer, and blogger/digital content creator, I don't get that much time with my German Shepherd dog, McQueen, or also known as MaQ to most of you, as much as I'd like to. So I definitely make room for some heavy duty quality time with my fur baby every chance I can get. It's not only for his well being but for mine as well. We are each other's best friend and if I could take him everywhere with me, I would in a heartbeat. Which is why when I was recently asked by Pup-Peroni to share some of MaQ's most recent favorite treats we, of course, wanted to share with you a couple of his choices! Here's a small clue to what he always goes for... and they are made with real meaty goodness!

When MaQ sees these Pup-Peroni Original Beef Flavor Dog Treats, he immediately starts to drool and gives you the 'I want it NOW' eyes. He'll do anything for these treats, one of his favorite go-to maneuvers is the paw shake or high-five, which is always rewarded with a treat or affection. We do everything together and I love being able to count on a brand that provides real meat like beef, steak, bacon, etc. as the #1 ingredient in their treats. Even made with real Angus steak, (MaQ also is in love with the Prime Rib flavor as well) I am reassured that I'm giving something authentic and tasty to my beloved pooch. With less time to worry about what I'm giving my dog, I can spend the time I have with him playing and enjoying our time together, showing other people his tricks and 'tricks of the trade.' 

One of his favorite games he's loved playing since he was a puppy is what we like to call the "Idenitification" game. MaQ has an assortment of plush toys, ranging from a dragon, fox, pig, monkey, practically a whole farm, that he absolutely adores, so much in fact, that he doesn't rip them up to shreds like other dogs sometimes do. We'll put all the toys in the toy bin and then ask MaQ to individually bring us a certain one, one by one until he is mentally exhausted. He can bring nearly twenty toys in one sitting! I'm not kidding! I'm even thinking about doing a live video on Instagram or Facebook one of these days, what do you guys think of that idea? We, of course, reward him each time for his efforts with his favorite mouth-watering beef treats. 

MaQ aims to please and is one playful pup while doing so! Some other activities we love doing together are taking long walks throughout the city, rollerblading and playing catch with one of his favorite balls. He also loves going to the store with me, even hearing the word gets him super excited! But no matter where we go, I always keep a few Pup-Peroni treats within reach. When people ask how MaQ is so well-behaved, it's not just his demeanor, it's the hundreds of treats given through training and positive reinforcement. When you can make training fun and full of engagement, it can do wonders for you and your pup. And with the best meaty treats, your dog will do anything for one! You can find Pup-Peroni Original Beef Flavor Dog Treats (38 oz.) at your local Walmart in the pet aisle. Woof, YEAH!!!

Monday: Hot Child in the City

WEARING: EXPRESS DENIM VEST | BDG ALOHA STRAW PANAMA HAT | H&M BLACK ROMPER | ALDO BLACK STUDDED ANKLE BOOTS

It's Monday! Hope you all had a nice weekend. I just got a new denim vest from Express that's definitely chasing away those Monday blues. Isn't it lovely? You can pretty much put it with any outfit, I love its versatility! Even though it's going to be a scorcher here today (we're reaching what will feel like 105Β°F), I've never been a big fan of wearing sandals while running around the mean streets of New York City. When it gets this hot out, the grit and grime of this town is just gross. The idea of who knows what getting on my feet is not a pleasantry in my mind. These pair from Aldo's are my go-to boots for all seasons. I love the gold plates on the heels and the studded design. The best part? They're actually comfortable! I do a lot of walking in this town so I've never been the type to wear 5-inch heels while doing so. Why take a cab when you can watch the world go by at your pace? I really do enjoy taking time out of my day for a good, long walk with the pooch. It helps clear my head and it's time with my favorite buddy. We always have such a good time, no matter what it is we're doing. :) 

Today's Monday Suzism is brought to you by Kurt Vonnegut. A little motivation to help you start off to a great week!

It's going to be hot, I can already feel it! Ick! Try to keep cool, stay hydrated and get those hats and sunscreen out! Have a good one!
