I like it when his owners let him out at night and on the …

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 …
