This Weekend is PACKED WEEKEND+ Giveaway

One of my favorite things about quarantine has been hearing all the stories of shelters being emptied for the first time as people have the availability to bring new pets into their homes. Staying at home is much nicer when I have Anise and McHenry at home...I think they return the sentiment!

As it gets colder and darker outside, I'm excited for this weekend's launch of The Pack on Prime Video. Hosted by gold medalist Lindsey Vonn and her canine co-host Lucy, the series features twelve teams of dogs and their humans on an epic adventure across multiple continents. The Amazon Original series The Pack will premiere on November 20th in more than 240 countries and territories. 

The Pack is being described as a celebration of the unrivaled bond between dogs and their human

companions. I can certainly relate!

I'm excited to stay warm inside and enjoy the cutness on my screen, but for people in the DMV who need to (safely) get out, there are deals all over the area (and online!) celebrating PACKED WEEKEND:
