I have a dog for about 4 years … 4years of cuddling and kissing ..

For my part I try not to let him miss anything …

Approximately three years ago, my mother-in-law purchased the Bumi Tug Toy by West Paw Design from Pet Valu for our toy-destroying golden retriever. At first, our dog showed little interest in this toy, which wasn’t surprising, she had never shown interest in ‘chew toys’, she always preferred the destructible …

We have two cats, a male tabby named Jax and a female tuxedo named Cocoa. They are both about 4 years old and mostly in good health, although about two years ago Jax started having gastrointestinal and digestive problems. He stayed active and had an appetite, but was losing …

I’m the proud mom of a very cute and active little doggie boy named Charlie. He is a 1 year old Pug Carlino that drives me crazy sometimes but who I love the most. He’s very active, as I said, and very anxious. This particular breed it’s like that, …

I am always on the hunt for cat food that has the least amount of harmful ingredients in them. Food that is grain-free is always at the top of my wish list because cats cannot easily digest grains. A food made in the USA and has a range of different …

If you’re a pet owner like me than you might dread that time of the year when you have to take your pet to get its annual shots and tests. Let’s face it– it costs a lot especially if you are me– I have 16 pets. That’s right! I have …

My cats have all previously been eating a certain kind of cheap cat food and on account of how much I’ve seen them throw up and have stomach and weight problems I decided to do some research to see what I could do to improve the health of my …

Now here’s something new for you. For once, I’m going to discuss a food product I’ve never actually sampled. Oh yeah, I’ve bought it, used it many times but I’ve never honestly tasted it myself. That’s because it’s made for pets. Yeah, you heard me, PETS. They’re Pedigree Dentastix …

A few months ago, my wife and I started worrying about a dog of ours. She was old and fat — about 11-years-old and a solid 20 pounds overweight (that’s not good for a Labrador/dachshund mix). The old girl just kind of lounged around the house and had gotten …

I have a medium size female dog (it is a boxer) who was very sick a few months ago so you can imagine that since then I am always alert to her health. The vet indicated me Royal Canin food at that time and I continued giving this food …

In terms of well-known dog toys, the KONG Classic is right up there with the tennis ball, flying disc (Frisbee) and braided rope toy. Most people, regardless of whether or not they own a dog, know what it is.
The KONG Classic is durable. In our home, most dog …

The Hikari Gold is a premium line of fish food made specially for cichlid fishes. However, I’ve heard of many people who feed this food to Oscar fishes without experiencing any problems. I have an oscar fish, not a cichlid fish. I bought this food off of Amazon for …

With a lifetime of experience with dogs, I was determined to have my golden retriever leash trained before she was six months old. Despite my best efforts, that did not happen and I actually ended up buying a Gentle Leader halter for her when she was only four months. …

The time I found out about Artic Paws Yummy Chummies Dog Treats was about four years ago, when my parents brought two big bags back from Alaska that they had purchased while there on a fishing trip. The owners of the fishing lodge couldn’t sing the praises high enough …

My new lovely little cat used to belong to neighbours of …

I own a rat terrier that spends most of her time inside the home; however, when the days are humid I allow her to stay outside to enjoy the sun and warm temperatures. Unfortunately, during these warmer months is when my dog attracts the most fleas and other tiny …

I’ve been keeping budgerigars as pets for the past couple of years and as much as I love them, one of the hardest parts of maintaining them is to buy them feed.
This is because it’s either very hard to find bird seed where I live sometimes, and when …

When my dog was weakened by diarrhea, I gorged her with healthy pet food. It is the right thing to do to revive her stamina. Some of the things I bought for her were food supplements endorsed by the vet. Whether supplements too are necessarily healthy, …

We have two cats and anyone who has cats knows that they need their play and scratch areas. Cats are climbers, snugglers and need to be kept busy. The more stretching and exercising they can do, the better they will be.
I believe that this cat post …

My cat was going through a rough spell after we brought home a puppy. She decided to urinate all over the house and on everything you could possibly think of. I’m pretty sure she felt like she had nothing of her own and needed to mark absolutely everything …

I’ve used several bath wipes in the past for my golden retriever who tends to get very muddy paws with stuck on dirt but discontinued using them because they were just costing too much money. I found these wipes in the store the other day and they seemed …

I only have one cat, so I try to get him decent quality canned cat food to mix in with his dry food, and I really like the Iams Purrfect Delights brand. They’re a good size, moderately priced, and my cat really loves them.

We have an extremely well behaved Golden Retriever except for one issue… she chews her beds.
She is 4 years old and has always been great with leaving everything else around the house alone. She was never a sneaker chewer or anything like that except for the fact that …

My dog always seemed to have the worst doggie breath in the world. It doesn’t help that there’s fish in her food and right when she’s done eating is when it’s the worst. She is clean and fresh everywhere else but if she breathed anywhere near you …

My golden retriever recently developed a skin condition that leads to patches of raw skin. They look like clumps of dry skin and when you scratch them off they are red and irritated and look very raw. I went to Petco to look into medicated shampoos for …
