ACKUPI, also known as Asian Kennel Club Union of the Philippines, Inc. is another dog owners’ association in the Philippines that is newly founded. I first thought this was an Asian association and that PCCI was still the main dog owner’s association here but recently as I was strolling …

Weimeraners are a great choice of dog for the family that wants their dog to be a member of the family, not just a pet. They were originally bred as hunting dogs in Germany, but are gaining popularity as household pets. Their temperment is similar to the Labrador Retriever.

My dog doesn’t drink as much water as he should. I would assume that it was because it isn’t fun to drink out of the bowel. Whatever the case maybe I think that he needs something that is going to keep him interested when it comes to drinking water. …

I love my Sundowner horse trailer. The workmanship is absolutely extraordinary! The trailer outside and inside looks like a finish carpenter did the work on it. There isn’t a spot on the trailer where a horse can hook or cut themselves. All normal things that …

I’ve been a somewhat fan of Special Kitty products since I got my first cat, Map. I have found the food to be reasonably priced, the cat doesn’t mind it, and there hasn’t been any massive weight gain on the cat’s part. It seemed okay, so when …

I recently purchased a training kit for my two dogs from Petsmart.com. I had to do this because when I went to purchase what I needed from the actual store, the item was in stock but there was no available associate to retrieve it from the locked case. Therefore, …

When I saw Smart Scoop in stores and read on its box that it is compatible with any type of clumping litter, I thought “well, this could be great”, and I bought it. However, I am utterly disappointed with it. First of all, I think the rake is a …

Cleaning cats hair in your house can be a difficult and time-consuming task, especially if you have several cats, like we do. They are shorthairs, but nevertheless. Spots where they prefer to sleep require frequent cleaning. I used to use vacuum cleaner and various lint rollers; the results were …

I had just been given a new puppy to take care of. It is a little playful and quite the barker. However, simply playing with him and giving him treats is not enough to take good care of him. So, I went about bought WOW Dogs Shampoo, which has …

Chlorhexidine 4% Shampoo has to be hands down the absolute best shampoo I’ve ever used on my Golden Retriever. Just before she turned 5 she developed bad skin allergies, or at least that’s what the Vet figured it was. We had some tests run to make sure …

I purchased these wipes in conjunction with the tooth and gum wipes from my hair salon. My older cat has issues with dandruff and she is too old to thoroughly clean herself any longer so she often develops matted fur and just looks mangy most of the time. I …

When our dogs got infected with flea and ticks last year, we find it hard to control even we bath them using soap especially for tick and flea. The infestation is still there and it does not only affect our dogs’ health but as well as ours. I could …

I have had sugar gliders for over 11 years. I have had many babies born in my home as well as have rescued many gliders from bad situations. Gliders are NOT for everyone. Anyone considering gliders as pets should do lots of research before bringing gliders …

For the most part, I avoid giving my pets cheap food. Wal-Mart’s “Special Kitty” cat food is definitely on the low end of the food-quality spectrum. This store brand is not the most nutritionally complete. I would not, in fact, feed this on a regular basis. Rather, I would …

Bird Talk Magazine is a magazine made for bird owners and bird lovers. Since I own a parakeet myself, I have found Bird Talk really helpful. Every issue they feature a different bird like conures, macaws, cockatiels, and more. They have places where you can write in and tell …

I guess I have always been a girly girl and somehow that care has even extended to my pets. As I tend to seek out spa like experiences, I now get to include my little Shih-Tzu in all the pampering fun.
Recently while shopping in …

My German shepherd dog has always been spirited, he has pulled since he was a puppy and nothing that I tried,(including training,)stopped him from pulling me, the older he got of course the stronger he got, and the more I got dragged around. One day despite my better judgement, I …

I believe that this is something that anyone that keeps their pets indoors should keep around in case it’s needed. I have a small indoor dog and he’s fully trained but my little friend still does have mishaps sometimes so it’s a good thing to have just in …

As a cat lover, I am vehemently against the declawing of cats. When I began to have a problem with one of my cats scratching the carpet a few years ago, I tried everything else I could think of. I had scratching posts and sprays and strips of …

I am an aid animal lover and I also have worked for the SPCA and I can honestly say that Old Roy is the worst food to feed your pet. As a vet’s assistant I saw cases of incontinence, bleeding, bad breath, hair loss, and quite a few other …

I have taken my pets to Dr Clayton Schneider for years. I especially appreciate, as do most of the residents of our very Northern Ontario community, his mobile unit!
Dr Schneider recently took care of my six month old female kitten. His staff were extremely friendly and …

Ever wanted a cute and cuddly pet like a dog? To big for the house? To much mess? Well I’m going to review the alternative; A Guinea pig.

Choosing a dog for a family with children can be very difficult. But strong consideration should be given to Beagles. Beagles are often described as difficult and hard to train. But it simply has not been my experience. After having 5 beagles, I must say …

If you are in the market for a lap dog that is good with children, get a Shih-tzu! We bought our puppy from a reputable breeder approximately six months ago. The breeder had already cage trained our puppy, Lucy. That cage is now her bed and safe “haven” …

When a friend gave me his dog, a Japanese Spitz breed, I encountered a problem with its fur getting easily shedding off. Almost everyday, I keep vacuuming the floor, carpet, and furnitures whereever the dog’s hairs are.
I took my dog to the vet and gave me this Refamol …

I saw the Homezone Kitty Litter House recently while I was out shopping, and I found it to be a really interesting product. We have a cat, and along with having a cat comes having a litter box. It’s difficult to find a place for the litter …

The Cat Dancer cat toy has been one of the best toys I’ve ever purchased. The product could not be simpler. It’s merely a long thin wire with pieces of rolled cardboard attached to each end. At the handle, there is only one piece of rolled cardboard and at …

Mollies are a great kind of fish for a typical tropical fishbowl. I like them because they are entertaining to watch, and they really add an awesome element to a fish tank. My mollies are black, white, and speckled.
My favorite aspect of Molly fish is their reproductive …

One of the most interesting fish that I have ever kept have been pirahna fish. Piranha’s have a reputation for bloodthirst and aggressive behavior but I have not found them to be like that.

We purchased this doggie carrier for our 16 pound pooch and are now disappointed in the quality of this product. The carrier comes in different sizes, with recommendations for what size should be used according to your dog’s weight. We got the medium sized pack, and our …

My Maine Coon cat loves this warm winter cat bed I bought him last spring. During the long winter he has slept in it during the evenings while I watch TV, as he prefers being in the same room that I’m in. He jumps into it by himself and …

There are so many things wrong with the idea of leaving my dog home by his self while we are away on business. I have tried this a time or two and it didn’t work out well at all. We came back to a nasty house, filled with bodily …

As I write this review, I am pretty disgusted and shocked at the fact that I was rejected as a suitable owner for a rescue dog from these kennels. Although I must say that I do admire anyone who devotes their time to re-homing abused and abandoned dogs …

I bought her from a breeder for $1,500 . Alot of money I know , but she is worth every penny . That was a …

Bonkers Catnip Pillows are rather cleverly named cat toys. A 2 oz little pillow stuffed with dry catnip does indeed make cats go bonkers! They bite it, throw it, chase it, chew on it, hug it, and, finally, fall asleep with it. The pillows are durable, they will not …

Frontline Plus was the first flea and tick preventative I used on my dogs, but I found that it was ineffective when the weather created an increase in the flea population. Although it’s a good product, it’s definitely not my top choice for flea and tick preventative.
Frontline Plus comes …
