What Would You Say If I Told You That Your Little Dachshund Could Be Your Own Personal Delivery Man?
We all have those lazy moments where we feel like doing absolutely nothing, whether we’re hungry, need to use the bathroom, or flat out bored, we don’t want to move off the couch. It happens to all of us.
Well, getting or having a doxie could fix at least one of the side effects that come from not wanting to do anything, the hungry part, and let’s be honest, that’s the most important part. A full belly means a happy mommy and doxie.
Toronto Doxie, Oliver Dean Filmed Delivering McDonald’s
Recently a little doxie named Oliver Dean blew up on Instagram after his mommy posted a video of him carrying a McDonald’s bag.
No one could believe what they were seeing and it quickly grabbed everyone’s attention. It’s not everyday you see a little doxie carrying a bag that’s almost as big as him.
Oliver is known to carry everything and anything in his mouth around, so a takeout bag shouldn’t really be a surprise!
The Best Part Is, He Doesn’t Even Steal Your Food!
If I was carrying a McDonald’s bag I’d be very tempted to steal a few fries here and there, well with little Oliver Dean as your delivery man you don’t have to worry about that!
The One Thing Pet Owners Regret Not Doing Until It’s Too Late
Is your pet safe?
1 in 3 pets will need emergency veterinary treatment each year and it is estimated a pet receives emergency care every 2.5 seconds in the U.S.
The average cost of treating a broken bone in dogs is $2,700. Cancer treatments? Up to $10,000.
It’s why so many pet owners say their biggest regret isn’t the vet bill—it’s not having pet insurance when they needed it most.
Ask yourself: “If an unexpected $5,000 vet bill hit tomorrow, could I afford it?”
If the answer is no, it’s time to get covered.
Take a look at Lemonade. They have a great app that actually works, they have an instant chatbot that is faster and, dare we say it, friendlier than most companies’ “real” customer service and a quick scroll through Reddit will uncover… people are really vibing with this brand.
So go check them out and take a look. It takes less than a minute.
The question is how he was able to learn how to carry a takeout bag like that. I blame it on him being such a good boy, but I’m sure they are other factors. I came up with a few ideas of how you can train your pooch to do that too, no guarantee it’ll work , but it’s worth giving it a shot.
- Start with a toy and use a treat to lead them around
- Once they get used to keeping the toy in their mouth, stop using a treat to lead them
- Slowly incorporate small bags instead of a toy
- Finally introduce the takeout bag, make sure it’s not too heavy
- Be warned! Depending on the dog, they might be tempted to eat your food!
Be sure to let me know if it worked!

80% of Dogs Develop Arthritis or Joint Pain by 7 Years old – Here’s How to Protect Them
Most of us train our dogs when they are puppies to jump up on furniture. We think it’s harmless (and easier than always lifting them), but for dogs, couches and beds are very high compared to the size of their bodies.
Every time they jump it compresses their back and applies enormous force to their joints.
It’s no wonder that an incredible 80% of dogs experience arthritis or joint pain by only 7 years old.
Luckily, there is a vet-recommended solution.
It’s the PawRamp by Alpha Paw. An adjustable ramp that allows dogs to safely get on and off couches and beds. PawRamp makes joining you in bed or on the couch effortless and fun.
