In our house, mornings donāt begin with alarmsā¦ they begin with tail wags, Yorkie kisses, and the soft sound of paws padding across the floor. Gabby and Maci, my two sweet Yorkies, have turned our mornings into something I look forward to every single day. Calm, intentional, and full of loveāour morning routine is one of the most important parts of our wellness rhythm.
Hereās a peek at how we start each day together. š
āļø 1. Soft Wake-Ups & Morning Snuggles
Before anything else, we soak in a few quiet moments of cuddles. Gabby is usually the first to hop up and nuzzle in, followed by Maci, who brings the sleepy kisses. I truly believe starting the day with connection sets the tone for everyoneāhuman and pup alike.
š½ 2. Fresh Breakfast for Happy Bellies
Next up: breakfast! Gabby and Maci each get a portion of our home-cooked blend: ground beef, rice, spinach, peas, and carrots. This real food provides the nutrients and balance they need to thrive.
Throughout the day, they also have access to PawTree Chicken & Oatmeal kibble, which supports healthy digestion and keeps them satisfied until dinner.
š 3. Supplements Time (Liverwurst Edition!)
Daily supplements are a must in our home, but letās be honestāgetting picky pups like Gabby to take them takes a little creativity. So we wrap them in a small bite of liverwurst and itās suddenly the best treat of the day.
They get:
ā¢ Multivitamins
ā¢ PawTree Gastro Pro Plus
ā¢ Salmon & Pollock Oil
ā¢ Plaque Control
ā¢ Joint Support Plus
These little steps help keep their gut, teeth, coat, and joints in top shape.
š§¼ 4. Brush, Wipe, & Go
After breakfast, we do a quick grooming session: brushing coats, wiping paws and faces (especially if theyāve been rolling around!), and checking eyes and ears. This keeps them tidy and helps prevent matting or skin issues.
š¾ 5. Movement + Mindful Moments
Depending on the weather, we either take a short walk around the neighborhood or spend some time playing in the backyard. Gabby and Maci love zoomies, tug-of-war, and following me while I stretch or tidy up.
This morning movement helps burn energy and supports both physical and mental wellnessājust like it does for us!
šæ Final Thoughts
Our morning routine might look simple, but itās filled with intention. These small habits help our Yorkies stay healthy, calm, and connectedāand honestly, they help me do the same.
Whether youāre a new Yorkie parent or a long-time pup lover, a consistent morning routine can make a world of difference.

Wishing you calm starts and wagging tails,
