Unfortunately, I can’t afford to get this for my dogs on a regular basis, or I would. Frontline Top Spot does a super job of keeping my dogs flea-free. What I love about it is that it’s just one application per one or two months, depending upon …

Cats, in my opinion, are the perfect choice of pets. They are intelligent, gentle, funny, and clean, and they have strong and distinct personalities. If properly raised and cared for, they will be excellent companions and friends. They don’t have to be let outside a couple of times each …

I inherited this cat as a stray when I moved into my townhouse and decided to adopt it since it kept coming back to scurry around for food, after I had given it some once.
I decided to keep it and name it Nemo, and it surprisingly responds to that …

I purchased my first hamster at the tender age of twelve. I saved up my allowance to buy the hamster, the cage, all the items you need to raise a healthy and happy critter. Back in those days, the cages didn’t come with all these fancy tubes, which ended …

I bought Doggie’s Choice Anti-Mange Soap to treat the skin problems of two of my dogs. They are from the same litter - brother and sister - and the problem seems to run in their blood since the other dogs had not developed the condition, thankfully. I had used …

101 Dalmations, anyone? We all know the movie. Grew up with it, loved it, and those dogs stayed in our hearts for years to come. And, you notice in the movie how mischeivous those dogs were? Yeah, well, that’s not so far from the truth. If you are interested …

Whenever a chance comes up to try a new, reliable treat for my dogs, I generally take it. Now what I mean by that is getting a discount or a freebie or some kind or promotional deal. I also mean that it comes from a good, reputable …

I have pretty much gone through every flea and tick medicine for dogs out there, and whenever I am in very highly flea-infested areas, I always choose K9 Advantage.
I should start by letting people know that K9 Advantage, unlike K9 Advantix does NOT protect from ticks or mosquitoes. I …

I really like how each of the 8 sticks that come in the package are separately packed so they won’t dry and will stay fresh until you need them. However it has happened to me that while I was separating one stick from another I have damaged the other …

Cats are pretty difficult to please sometimes. While most dogs will pretty well inhale all sorts of food, even those where edibility is in question, a feline will sometimes turn its nose up at even the finest food offered. In short, a treat can often turn out to be …

I know all dog foods are pretty much the same but I don’t think Beneful is even trying here. I got it for my Puggle and being a pup with a voracious appetite, she should dive right in and reduce the bowl to crums right? …

Everyone knows dwarf hamsters as the cute ‘mouse-like’ hamsters in the pet store. Winter Whites have a special ability that puts them in a separate category than the other dwarf hamsters. Like their name implies, they turn a majestic white in mid-December. I’ve had my hamster for over a …

Because I own and love seven spirited Labrador Retrievers, I have quickly learned what dog supplies are best and which ones aren’t worth my money. Buckle collars have always been my biggest dilemma because they either end up chewed in two pieces or the buckles crack within a …

I’m a huge fan of the show “It’s Me or the Dog”, about British dog trainer, Victoria Stillwell, who seems to be able to work magic with any dog, no matter how ill-behaved it may be. I have two African hunting dogs. Basenjis. They are medium-sized short-haired dogs with …

The Hawaii Kai dog park is relatively new to Oahu. It is maintained by volunteers and is one of the best dog parks in my opinion because it is so nice and clean. Of course, the dogs and their owners are a breed all their own. …

My dogs have been in need of new bowls for their food and water, so I finally bit the bullet and purchased a few new feeding items for their drinking and eating pleasure. Okay, they probably don’t know the difference, but I do. One of the products …
