Favorite Things Friday: January 7, 2022

Our sometimes-weekly list of all the dog-related links we’re shopping, bookmarking, and sharing

Hi, hello, and happy first Friday of 2022! With all the excitement of our book coming out this fall—and to be honest, some post-book exhaustion—our weekly Favorite Things lists went on a break that lasted wayyy longer than expected. But, you know, these lists were always supposed to be a fun add-on to our blog, so instead of beating myself up about that, I’m just trying to appreciate that I’m picking back up at a mental place where I actually feel excited to share my finds and thoughts.

And I really am! Even though we had back-to-back friend hangouts and family gatherings planned for the holiday week, a combination of a huge Seattle snowstorm and Omicron exposures among our friends meant that we ended up with basically a completely empty ten days, so we packed up Bridget and the dogs and headed off to Seabrook for an unplanned escape to beach walks and beautiful winter sunsets.

I literally have not felt so rejuvenated in a longgg time. It wasn’t the Christmas break I had planned, but it was honestly just what the doctor ordered after this crazy year.

Anyway, enough about me—here’s our list of our favorite pup finds from this week. Wishing you a truly wonderful 2022 with your favorite people and pups.
