My! Oh my! How would you like to give some sweet little birdies a home? We sure did! As soon as we saw this sweet family of pet bird icon designs, we swooped in and took them in to our little studio. In fact, some of them are sitting right here on my desktop…running freely about eating their digital worms. (hee hee!)
In this Friday Freebie post we re-release Birdies: A Free Twitter Icon Set, a set of 12 beautiful and lovely Twitter icons. And as a part of our latest and ongoing design service; designing custom twitter backgrounds for pet business owners and pet blogs, we thought that this little birdie set would fun to help give away.
This twitter icon set was designed by IconEden and released exclusively for Smashing Magazine and its readers. All the icons included in the set have clean shapes and neutral colors that can be used for various contexts, from a “Tweet it” button for your blogs to desktop wallpapers or desktop icons. The set is available in both pixel format and EPS vector format so the icons can be rescaled to any size while retaining their original details. You can download the pixel set here in our blog or visit Smashing Magazine to download the complete series, including the EPS vector format set.
*Note: This awesome twitter icon set is FREE for both personal and commercial projects, but must not be resold, sub-licensed or rented. In other words, you can not make money from this here little freebie.

Welcome to our new Sniff Design Pet Recipe Series – Collectors Edition!
This new series set to be released over time will consist of some nifty pet recipes that you can download and make; all borrowed from various pet recipe sites such as Dog Treat Kitchen.com or other pet blogs. Today not only will you get a new recipe to make for Fido, but it will come with it’s own custom background designed and illustrated by none other than us. Viola!
To begin your pet recipe collection; print this on card stock paper (found at any office supply store) and when ready put two or three holes in the side there with a hole puncher and add it to a small/medium binder of choice.
Here is a delicious peanut butter biscuit recipe. Have you ever met a dog who doesn’t like peanut butter? Neither have we. That’s why these peanut butter dog biscuits with molasses is a great. Even though dogs don’t need added sugar to make their treats delicious, molasses is a natural choice. Usually, ingredients found in commercial biscuits are typically called natural if they are processed to the least amount. However, unlike refined sugar, blackstrap molasses retains vitamins and minerals such as calcium, magnesium, potassium and iron. So, you can rest easy knowing that these home made dog biscuits will be fresh and healthy.
So, did you make this recipe? What was your experience? Did your dog gobble it up or take a polite sniff and walk away? Now don’t let Fido hog this recipe all up. Be sure to share this blog entry with other dog treat aficionados or better yet, please send in your pics showing your favorite pooch eating these delicious treats to share with our dog blog audience. We’d sure love to show em’ off! <3
Bone Appetit!
