by Happy Valentine’s Day!
Oh how I love Valentine’s Day. You either love it or hate it. Why hate it when it’s the day of love? Those that hate it say “why should I show you how much I love you on just one day”. Easter is one day, Christmas is one day and your birthday is one day, so what’s the difference?
It’s important to show the ones you love just how much you love them all the time, agreed not just on February 14th. But just go with it, enjoy the cliche of small white teddy bears holding red hearts, yummy indulgent chocolates and champagne, and long stem roses that cost an arm and a leg just because it’s Valentine’s Day.
Oscar and Zara know exactly how much they are loved. I tell them everyday basically all day that I love them and I know they understand every word!
Zara is not shy to show me how much she loves me back. Each and every morning she brings me a present. These presents are her toys, her most prized possessions of course, she chooses just one and that’s the gift of the day. This is such a special thing we have going, I wake up every morning wondering which toy i’ll get gifted with. I never taught her this at all, she one day started doing it and it’s now a ritual. Zara is also the queen of kisses. She pins me down (because yes she is stronger than me) and attacks me with her tongue! The love that Zara has is like nothing I have ever experienced, it’s so over the top and just so Zara.
Oscar on the other hand is a little more reserved in his expressions of love. His way of telling me he loves me is by never leaving my side. And I mean never! He follows me all over the house no matter what. I try get up and sneak out the room if he is snoozing (I don’t like disturbing his sleeps) but that nose of his picks up a scent that says “mom has left the room”. He is up like a rocket and finds me in three-seconds flat. He is by far the most loyal steed I have ever encountered. He is one hundred percent devoted to protecting me.
So naturally this Valentine’s Day I have made them some yummy bright red heart-shaped treats to devour….
Valentine’s Day Treats
Ingredients
2 cups beetroot puree
2-3 cups flour
2 tbs coconut oil
1 egg
Directions
Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees. In a mixing bowl mix together your beetroot puree, coconut oil and egg. Then add your flour one cup at a time until you have a lovely dough. This dough can be slightly soft sticky, as long as you can roll it out it is fine. Gently roll out your dough and using heart shaped cookie cutters cut your treats. Place them on a greased baking tray and bake for +- 30 minutes or until cooked. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool. The bright red colour of these treats is just gorgeous and your pups will LOVE them.
Whatever you decide to do or not do this Valentine’s Day, make sure you let those around you know how much you love and appreciate them. I know I will. <3

My Furry Valentines.
categories: Recipes
Valentine’s Day. You either love it or hate it. Of course having someone special to share it with makes a world of difference. Luckily I have my four furry companions as well as my two-legged companion to share this super cliche day of love with.
Any chance I get I love to spoil my furry loves and Valentine’s Day is no different. It doesn’t always have to be something bought, homemade gifts often make the greatest gift. Taking time out of your busy day to prepare and make something for someone you love often speaks louder than the gift itself.
This year my fur babies will be receiving a giant collection of home made treats. When it comes to food, you have my furry loves sold-all four of them! To keep in line with the love theme I decided to make some homemade beetroot doggy treats for both Zara and Oscar and special beetroot bunny treats for Valentine and Duchess. Here are the recipes:
Beetroot Doggy Treats
Ingredients
2 large beetroots
1 egg
2 tbs coconut oil
2 cups flour
Directions
Start by peeling the skin from the beetroots. Then cut them into chunks and steam them for about 40 minutes or until cooked and soft. Let them cool then blitz them up so it becomes a beautiful dark red paste. Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees. In a bowl mix together the egg, coconut oil and the beetroot paste until combined then add the four one cup at a time. You can judge how much flour is needed by how sticky or dry the mixture is. Then roll it out onto a floured surface and using heart cookie cutters cut out your valentines treats. Place them onto a greased baking tray and into the oven for +-20 minutes or until cooked and slightly golden-not too golden otherwise they will lose their red colour. Once cooked let them cool, you can package them into cute boxes ready for your pup to enjoy on Valentine’s Day.
Beetroot Bunny Treats
Ingredients
1 large beetroot
1 cup oats-blitzed up to make oat flour
Directions
Start by peeling the skin from the beetroot. Then cut it into chunks and steam it for about 40 minutes or until cooked and soft. Let it cool then blitz it up so it becomes a beautiful dark red paste. Then set aside to cool slightly. Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees. Once the paste has cooled enough for you to handle, mix in the oat flour a little at a time. You want to get a firm consistency but it will still be sticky. You should be able to break off tiny pieces and roll into bunny bite sized bits. Place them onto a greased oven tray and bake for +-15 minutes or until they are hard and cooked. Be careful not to over cook them. Once done set aside to cool. You can package them in toilet roll holders with tissue paper wrapped around. This will provide some entertainment for your bunny while trying to reach the treats.
And if you are feeling in the mood to spoil your pups even more, then head on over to our online store and shop for some gorgeous collars, beds and toys.
Enjoy this Valentine’s Day with the ones you love most.

Will you be my Valentine?
categories: Summer Love
No one likes to admit they enjoy celebrating Valentine’s Day… I will admit I love it! Whether it’s receiving a surprise delivery of roses and chocolates at the office or a romantic home cooked meal, every girl gets butterflies when her man says ‘I love you’ on Valentine’s Day!
I agree, love shouldn’t be bound to just one day of the year, but it’s awesome celebrating it on February 14th every year. Oscar of course has no idea when or what Valentine’s Day is, he truly shows me unconditional love everyday of the year. He wags his tail at me, he follows me everywhere, sleeps with me, cuddles on the couch with me, I even catch him staring at me with his big gorgeous eyes.
Yes, Valentine’s Day is a cliché, but who cares! Celebrate it!
Here are some ways to include your good looking pup in your Valentine’s Day celebrations…
Bake your way to his heart:
They say the best way to a man’s heart is through cooking-Well now is the time to bake something yummy and full of love for your furry love.
Milky Hearts
Ingredients
2 cups flour
1 cup milk powder
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup melted butter
1 egg
Icing Ingredients
2 tbs cornstarch or rice flour
2 tbs water
1 tsp honey
organic food colouring
Directions
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees. Mix all your ingredients together in a big mixing bowl. Once mixed, turn out onto a floured surface and roll your dough out. Take your heart shaped cookie cutters and cut out the cookies. Place them onto a greased baking tray and bake for +- 15 minutes or until slightly browned and cooked. Once the cookie hearts have cooled, mix together the icing ingredients and ice the hearts. Play around and be creative. Your pooch deserves some cute Valentine’s treats too 🙂 Let the icing dry/set, then let your pup enjoy his treats. Store them in an airtight container.
Have a photoshoot
Memories are forever, and so are photographs! Create cute scenes with props and outfits and snap away. You will be surprised at just how much your furry love enjoys having his photo taken.
You can use blankets and pillows, anything pink, red, black or white. Make a cute bunting of hearts, ‘X’ and ‘O’. Use chalk boards and write cute little sayings. Have him hold a rose in his mouth or sprinkle some rose petals on him. Use Photo Booth props. Kiss him with bright red lipstick-he will definitely love you for that one! Be in the moment with your pooch and have fun together creating memories.
Red, Red, Red
Live in the moment of love. Dress your pup in anything related to Valentine’s Day. A red collar, a pink scarf, a black jacket or white socks. Anything goes on this day of love! Then take him for a walk at his favourite spot so he can show off his Valentine’s gear.
Stylish Paws has an awesome selection of collars, leashes, jackets and socks for your furry love!
