PUPPY PO What ‘Lady and the Tramp’ Can Teach Your Kids

Meet H

With Disney+ launching this November, you’ll get access to tons of great classics as well as new original series and movies, like the live-action “Lady and the Tramp” remake. While Disney fans are excited about this, the original film is still perfect for the whole family and has some great life lessons for your kids. Here are some of the best takeaways. Explore the world around you. “There is a great big hunk of world down there with no fence around it.” This underrated quote, said by Tramp, perfectly encompasses one of the main lessons of the film: explore! Life is all about seeing what’s out there and testing your limits. Without Tramp’s ambition to explore, Lady would never have discovered her love of spaghetti or the joy of running carefree through the city. Celebrate your differences. This film celebrates differences and encourages viewers to do the same. Tramp rouses hen houses and avoids dog catchers. Lady was pampered with a fancy dog collar and cushy places to sleep. Despite coming from different ends of the dog park, they find a shared love for adventure and, of course, Italian cuisine. Embrace change. Early on in the movie, Lady’s comfortable life slips away from her as Jim and Darling Dear welcome their new baby into the household. Jim starts to refer to Lady as “That Dog” shortly after the baby’s arrival. After getting lost and meeting Tramp, she gains a new life partner and creates a family of her own, showing children that, while change can be a daunting thing to face, it’s often for the best and comes with a silver lining. These are only a few of the lessons highlighted in this Disney classic. Gather the whole family for a fun night in and see what other lessons you can learn. The original film was such a cult classic, but the remake is sure to deliver. It’s expected to release on Nov. 12, 2019, so mark your calendars.

Hello!

Leftover Thanksgiving Dog Treats If the leftovers are your favorite part of Thanksgiving, then this recipe is for you! Show your dog how thankful you are for them with these post-feast dog treats. My name’s Hamilton! I’m a golden retriever puppy, and I started living with Dr. Clark and Rose Ann a couple of weeks ago. They adopted me from a local golden retriever rescue program. Coming to live with Rose Ann and Dr. Clark was a big change. Beforehand, I was only around my brothers and sisters. Now I’m living with another dog and a cat, too! The cat’s name is TJ, short for Thomas Jefferson. I always heard cats were mean, but TJ’s pretty cool. He doesn’t mind that I like to bounce around sometimes. TJ is chill, but the other dog, Lincoln, is my new best friend. He’s a springer spaniel with as much energy as me. We play chase together all the time. When we’re done playing, I like to hang out outside with Lincoln and lay down on his favorite bed. The only downside is that Lincoln doesn’t want to play keep away with the toys, which is my favorite game. He just doesn’t get how fun it is yet, but I’m sure he’ll come around.
