I breed miniature dachshunds and so …

I decided to try these dental pads from Doctors Foster & Smith, as I had bought things from them in the past and know they sell quality products. I really was surprised how much easier it was to clean my cats’ teeth with these little round white pads. My …

Okay, the name alone makes this sound like some cheesy, late-night piece of junk that will fall apart in a month. I was hesitant to buy this as I had already purchased two dog brushes within about a two-month period and been disappointed with the results.
I visited the website …

I really enjoy my pet oscar fish for more than two years already. This pet was entrusted to me by my nephew. I have a great fun with my oscar fish. He knew his name. Whenever I call his name he swims towards me. When I talk to him, …

I was completely oblivious to the the concept of dog tear staining until I bought Oz the bichon home.

My rats just love these grass houses by Kanda Imports! I have been trying several things on them to see what they really love and these little houses are without doubt their favorite. They sit inside it all of the time, often piling in one atop the other. I …

Pupperoni are my dogs’ favorite treats, and the bacon kind is their favorite flavor.
These treats are the perfect size for medium dogs, and you can easily break them in half for smaller portions. I like that they can be snapped in half so easily because I prefer to …

For my birthday last year, I bought myself a 29 Gallon Aquarium. It’s something I’ve wanted for a long time, and as a fish keeper in my younger days, it’s something that I really wanted to keep doing.

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 …

Having been to an enormous amount of pets stores due to having a dog and two cats, I can safely conclude that Petgoods of Paramus is probably one of the best. It is not a mass commercial pet retail store such as petsmart and petco, so therefore they …

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 …

I would like to say that not all off-brand pet foods are a good source of nutrition. I will be the first to tell you I am not a nutritionist but, I am an observer, and a pet lover. My husband and I currently have two …

My former next-door neighbor had a pit bull. I did not trust this dog at all as it acted very crazy. It was like it had a split personality; two dogs in one body. I was actually scared of it a bit, as I never knew what it might …

This is a fungal medicine that is used to treat people and animals. This review is about how this medicine was used on a cat since it got a nasty fungal infection that can be spread on a human too.
