Treats for Lexi Day

~ Tails Around the Ranch

Sam here. Because I’m a therapy dog like Lexi was, my first treat to share in her honor, is little Brooklyn who we saw at the hospital. She was super excited to see me and I’m sure she’d be tickled pink to have had Miss Lexi visit with her.

And my next “favoritest” treats are elk antlers. I totally love chewing on them. They keep my pearly whites in ship-shape for visiting which makes my breath fabulous so I can get up close and personal with big and little peeps at the hospital.

So what are your “favoritest” treats to share with our sweet angel girl, Lexi? If you weren’t able to post one, tell us about your ‘bestest’ treats in the comments.

We love and miss you, Lexi!

Live, love, bark! <3

    Little Brooklyn is a cutie for sure and I’m sure she was really tickled to see you. Tippy’s favorite treats are peanut butter and carrots, not together. LOL

  12. We did know Lexi had transitioned, and are saddened to learn this. My favorite is whatever Mama is eating that she deems ok for me…like asperagus, pears, apples, etc…oh and I get some unsalted corn chips too……

  15. Thank you Sam for sharing your therapy girl as a tribute to Lexi. Lexi also had a special girl named Brooklyn who she visited in the the Children’s Hospital throughout the years. I think they must be together now, smiling at each other.

  17. You “therapized” for Lexi! She loved doing that. I wonder if she ever had an elk antler? Maybe she has lots of them now! Thanks for participating, Sam! *ear licks*

        She would have loved them, Amy. Plus they last for years which makes the price not so bad.

    Sorry we never “met” Lexi but since she was a Therapy Dog like you Sam, It would have been a great pleasure. Both Benji and the WaWa love Good-O a chewy dog treat. They also love a treat called Schmackos Stix and I think of them all that would be the favourite and I think Lexi would like that..
