Life is never “easy” for any bully type dog. First they are stubborn and hard to train by nature.

To make your life a little bit easier as a dog owner – EZYDog has come up with some of the most innovative, fashion forward and sporty accessories for your pup! EzyDog is the maker of the Original Shock Absorbing Leash as well as the Award Winning Chest Plate Harness. Jacob is wearing a size large in Chocolate.

The brand started in 2003 and was established simultaneously in Sandpoint, ID and Brisbane, Australia. EzyDog offers a unique range of products for your dog that are both fashionable and highly functional. They have items for the smallest pug to the biggest retriever on your block!

Walking around with the EZYdog harness was great for the busy New York streets. The 3M reflectors made it safe for walking at night. This is especially important if you have a brown or black dog. Sometimes it is really hard for cars to see them!

Because it of the safety features, high quality nylon, easy to put on and can control him in busy streets – Jacob and I rate the EZYDog harness 5 bones out of 5!

Valentine Treats from @HonestKitchen

By in My Dog Jacob

Studies show that last year more money was spent at pet stores on Valentine’s day then was spent buying gifts for significant others! Lucy Postins, founder of The Honest Kitchen, would love to help your readers make this a special day for their pet with some homemade TLC. Lucy has created hundreds of nutritious recipes that began from experimenting with home cooked raw foods for her pets, which eventually evolved into her nationally-distributed line of raw pet foods. For Valentine’s Day, she has a special treat for pets called “Valentine’s Day Nibbles” from her pet cook book, Made Out of Love

Exercise tips from @NadeenBoman

By in Toronto, WorldWide

DSC017811 Exercise tips from @NadeenBoman

Yes I took a few sips before taking the picture…

A lot of us get lazy and find it hard to stay fit and healthy during the winter months; so Nadeen Boman (spokesperson of Powerade Zero ION4) shared some of her go-to exercises to help us stay nice and tight during the cold season.

DSC01769 Exercise tips from @NadeenBoman

Legs

Squat and Leg Lift- Start in squat position with feet about hip width apart and chest lifted. Knees should be over your heels so that you can see your toes. Stand and extend right leg back at a 45 degree angle, leading with your heel. Repeat squat, stand and leg lift on right leg for 15 reps before switching to the the left leg. (This exercise is good for a firm butt)

Arms

Plank Ups and Downs- Start in plank position with your body in a straight line, toes and forearms on the ground. Keep your butt down to engage your abdominals or if this is too difficult then go on your knees pulling your heels to your glutes. Push yourself up onto one hand then the other before going back down into the start position. Complete 5 up and downs then repeat with the other arm leading. Do 2-3 sets. (Good for shoulders and core)

Abs Do all 3 ab exercises back to back and repeat for a total of 2-3 sets.

Knee Touch Crunches- Lie on back with feet flat on the floor, knees about fist width apart. Reach for your knees by tucking your chin and brining your shoulder blades off the ground. Do 10-15 reps.

Heel Touches- Start off in same position as above. With your hands about 2 inches from the ground, reach your right hand toward your right heel then reach with your left hand toward your left heel. Touch heel 10-15 times.

Knees to Shoulders- Start in same position as previous abdominal exercises. Beginners have hands pressing into ground beside butt or increase difficulty and keep by your ears. Roll your bum off the ground by brining your knees towards your chest. Do 10-15 reps.

peace and love

@morgancasting is Seeking Stylish Torontonians!

By in Toronto

Thought I should share this with our stylish HeyDoYou readers.

Morgan Casting is on the search for Toronto’s coolest, hippest and most stylish folks who embody the uniqueness of our city’s neighborhoods!

Streetstyle2 @morgancasting is Seeking Stylish Torontonians!

Streetstyle @morgancasting is Seeking Stylish Torontonians!

Photos by Anthea Simms

Seeking men and women who look ages 25 to 45. Open to any ethnic background! If selected, pays $500.00 for fun and easy 2-3 hour…s on set (the street).  Think street style and being stopped for by the Sartorialist. Shoot Dates potentially:  Feb. 2rd, 3rd, 6th or 7th.

If you would like to be considered, please email the following by Thursday, Jan. 26th at 6pm latest! Time is of the essence! Email to morgancastingstyle@gmail.com
1. 2-3 pics of you strutting your street style – please note photo files MUST BE NAMED with your name! Once again, kindly name your images with your first and last name in order to be considered! Please send as attachments.
2.  Name, age and list what part of Toronto’s style you think you most embody (West Queen West, Queen West, King West, or Yorkville)
Yorkville -  Our Yorkville target will skew slightly older (30-45) and will have a heightened sense of sophistication. Classic lines and look. Refined. Polished. Follows the latest high-end, designer fashion trends.
Queen West – This ever-changing area of our city is now home to a younger and quite eclectic crowd.  Think 25-30.  An interesting mix of high-street fashion with the independence of one-off boutiques.
W. Queen West – Also 25-30, but much more into the local/independent scene. Very hip. Some would say avant garde. Certainly more exclusive, yet of the street. Would rather buy a vintage piece than the latest designer item; and happily pay more for it.
King West – This area is home to the young, business professional. Age: 29-35. This group is what the masses aspire to in terms of fashion. They follow the trends rather than set them.  They are out to see and be seen. And have fun doing it.

DSC01768 Get fit with @NadeenBoman

I sat down with Nadeen Boman last week, and she gave me a few tips on how to stay fit during the winter months. Nadeen is also the spokesperson for Powerade Zero ION4, so she was able to give us all the juice, on why we should choose this beverage during and after working out.

Powerade Zero ION4 has partnered with fitness guru Nadeen Boman to help Canadians get back in shape by spicing up their routines with some new exercises and developing a routine that helps them stick with their resolutions. You might know Nadeen from her work on the popular reality shows, and The Last 10 Pounds Bootcamp and Bulging Brides.

Get fit with @NadeenBoman

 

Thanks to Nadeen Boman for spending some time with us, and to the Powerade team for treating me to some delicious Powerade!!

peace and love

“We don’t buy jeans or clothes that don’t fit, so why should we settle for poor-fitting eyewear?”- Kay Tran

kay tran pic Love @KatTranEyewear

“Finding eyewear that doesn’t slide down your nose or sit on your cheeks shouldn’t be so impossible!”

“Kathy Tran was raised and currently resides in downtown Toronto. She worked in corporate finance, but always had entrepreneurial aspirations to harness her creative, artistic side. While completing her M.B.A. at the Richard Ivey School of Business, she first conceived the idea of redefining fit and bringing an alternative to the mass-produced, cookie-cutter fitting eyewear in the marketplace. She struggled for years trying to find stylish sunglasses that fit petite nose bridges since age four. The spring 2012 collection is sold online and will be available as of February at Goldstein Boutique, Optic Zone and Pink Eye Optical in Toronto, and Artsee Eyewear and Maximeyes in New York.”

Gotta get me a pair… or two!
peace and love
