Thank you to Purina for sponsoring this post and sending a goodie basket for Yoshi. The honest opinions are my own.
It’s hard to believe that Yoshi is 3 years old already. When we got her from the shelter, she was just a little thing.
She grew and grew and grew. Nowadays she is a pretty big dog, but with an even bigger heart. She is gentle and loving. Her favorite thing to do is cuddle and give hugs. We are all so thankful that she is part of our family that when Purina wrote with information about #DogThanking, I was excited to share.
For every original social media post through November 27th tagging @Purina and using the hashtag #dogthanking, Purina will donate one dollar to the Canine Health Foundation, up to $50,000, to help further pet health research.
On top of that your photo or post could be shown during the National Dog Show presented by Purina on Thanksgiving Day (November 24th) on NBC.
The National Dog Show will crown one of America’s great dogs its 2016 champion. This is its 15th year bringing canine competition and entertainment to America’s viewers.
We decided to take a few minutes to have a photo shoot with Yoshi for #DogThanking and to share how thankful we are to have her in our lives.
It’s amazing how a dog can become such a big part of your family. Yoshi has been incredible and has helped make our family so happy. From playing catch with her, to running around in the yard, to going on walks, and even just snuggling with her, she makes us smile and we do our best to make her happy and to feel loved every day too.
I’m looking forward to watching the National Dog Show on Thanksgiving and I’m excited see all of the cute dog photos on social media under the #DogThanking hashtag. I see there are a number published already. It’s fantastic that Purina is donating to such a great cause.
So be sure to share a photo or post on social media by November 27th, tagging @Purina and using the hashtag #DogThanking to help Purina reach it’s donation goal. The photos already posted are adorable and I’d love to see yours up there too!

My dogs have meant so much in my life! They have shown me unconditional love!
Our dog is family to us! She’s an amazing and loyal member.
Dogs mean the world to me. They mean love and support and fun. Dogs mean having company on nights you’d otherwise be alone, or happiness on days you don’t feel like smiling. Dogs are friends that never leave and family that doesn’t betray.
Our dog means everything to us. He is a great companion and friend to us
my poor dog needs back surgery so hopefully I can get that done soon because we love her
my doggie charlie is my baby boy… he is the only thing that makes me smile some days :)
Dogs mean friendship. If you have a good dog, you have all the company you need, at least part of the time.
I have an Italian Mastiff who is like one of my kids.
Roxi is my best friend. She was 11 in April and my is really my daughter’s dog. Unfortunately, Carol will be moving this spring and bringing Roxi back home with her. While I will miss her terribly, I know Carol misses her terribly now.
My Molly is 14 years old there is not a day goes by that I don’t thank God for bringing her to me.
My dogs bring me so much joy! They are my best friends :)

Dogs are really mans best friend. I love how playful, loving and loyal my dog is.
I have always been a dog person since my first cocker spaniel as a child who sat with me watching Saturday morning cartoons and shared my dry cereal in the living room. I have worked in animal rescue and veterinary care for most of my career and now am the proud mom of a wonderful energetic Jack Russell Terrier who means the world to me. I love dogs!
My dogs are part of the family just like my kids are! Things wouldn’t be the same without them.

Dogs are the bestest of friends.
Dogs make a great companion for many people including my grandma. She has a small poodle named Penny that keeps her company and sleeps on her lap for most of the day. We call her the grandma sitter!
Dogs mean loyalty. Dogs mean a friend forever. Dogs mean love. I would be lost without my dogs.
Dogs mean so much to me. They are so ingenuous, loving, innocent. I have never met a dog I didn’t like. My little guy may not be easy on the eyes but I love him unconditionally and he loves me unconditionally.
I cannot imagine life or our family without our furry pet – Marlin. Our dog is our friend, companion and well, part of the family!

Our dogs are our babies. When they have an itch I will scratch it for them. I get and give lots of dog hugs. I pull the stop out when it comes to the jumping up on you. Other than that they are treated as royality!
