Lately everything has been all about Brooks, which to me is understandable since he’s our brand new baby boy & needs our love and attention all throughout the day. But it’s very important to me that I continue to give my FIRST little guy, Jackson, all the love and attention he needs too!
Brooks, Jackson & I have sort of become the three muskateers during the day! We take 3-4 walks together every day – Jackson loves exploring the neighborhood & Brooks loves being outside soaking in the fresh air. And since my last Brooks & Jackson update – my little dog is making some progress in terms of coming around to our latest addition to the family. Jackson doesn’t completely relocate if Brooks & I join him on the couch and he’s even given him a kiss or two.
Brooks on the other hand LOVES Jackson. He watches him all the time, follows him with his gaze as Jackson walks around the room & when Jackson plays with his toys, Brooks laughs & finds it hilarious. Jackson also got a haircut recently and when Brooks saw him for the first time after the cut, he giggled – it was like he knew his little friend had a different look about him! So funny!
But I’ve been very aware of giving Jackson a little extra love these days -> So when the folks at VetIQ asked to send Jackson a care package with some little treats, I was all about it {and so was he!}
The first thing Jackson tried out were the Minties Dental Treats, which were actually recommended by our vet at his last visit to pick up for Jackson since he has a little tarter action going on in his mouth. Jackson loves these treats and I love that they help with his dental hygiene {and come in a tiny treat form – perfect for a little dog!}
Jackson also got to try out the Hip & Joint treats too, which are great for a little dog his age {Jackson will be 8 next month!} He chows these down so quick, Jackson can’t get enough of them!
I love seeing my first {dog}love and my new little love together. I hope they enjoy playing with each other for years to come {and I know Jackson is going to be glued to his side once Brooks starts on solids next month!}
Jackson says – “Thanks to the lovely folks at VetIQ for the tasty treats!”

Super cute pics! Our dachshund loves Greenies and the jerky from Blue Buffalo. I have to buy them in North America and smuggle them in my suitcase back to Barbados though, as I can’t buy them here. I hope she knows how spoiled she is 😉
Jackson is adorable and it’s great that he can have products to help him with his dental hygiene and his hip joints as he ages! Jackson and Brooks have come a long way in the last 5 months!
