Fuzzy dog noses and whiskers on kittens. Lighthearted musings and blog posts that are written. The Pet Blogger’s Gift Exchange and all that it brings. These are a few of my favorite things.
Seriously, those are some of my favorite things. Especially the Pet Blogger’s Gift Exchange, which is happening right now (and which I’m honored to be co-hosting alongside the founding blog, Something Wagging This Way Comes). The PBGE (if you’ll allow me the acronym) is, to put it bluntly, magical. Instead of worrying about shopping malls and spending money, pet bloggers give each other the gift of encouragement and blog love. What could be better?
Cream colored puppies and bloggers with poodles. Bulldogs and Great Danes and four Goldendoodles. Greyhounds that snooze while a Beagle howl-sings. These are my favorite things.
This year, I’ve been paired up with Laura from The Puppy Tails. (Love the blog name, right?) I’m still working on my gift, but in the meantime I encourage you to stop by her blog and say hi. (And follow her on Twitter. She’s awesome, you guys. And her dogs are insanely cute. Insanely.)
Cats in white sweaters with protesting scratches. Dog hair that stays on my nose and eyelashes. Brown and white furballs and birds on the wing. These are my favorite things.
Have you signed up yet? If not, what are you waiting for? (If you still need convincing, please see this unassailable argument in favor of participating. I may be biased about the persuasiveness of that post, however.) You can sign up until December 20.
When the dog whines, when my spirit won’t lift, When I’m feeling sad, I think of the pet bloggers exchanging a gift, And then I don’t feel so bad.
Need some inspiration? Check out the gifts that are already under the PBGE tree:
You amaze me, you really do. I love this song and now it might be stuck in my head.

Thanks! 🙂
I’m afraid I took a vow of poverty after getting a few Christmas presents, and won’t be buying much of anything for the next year. My husband and I have a dream to own a small, organic chicken farm, and the only way to raise the money is to work extra hard and not spend much.

I totally understand! That’s what’s so great about this gift exchange – it doesn’t cost a cent. Just time and some blog love!
Teach me to read through quickly! For some reason I was thinking this was the gift exchange of toys I saw earlier on a different blog. This sounds like a good idea, and I think I will sign up! 🙂

Yay!
