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 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 …

Of all the pets I have, the most interesting and humanlike one, I must say, is my African Grey Parrot. Particularly so because of the fact that I have had it for just over four years now and every single day with it never produces a dull moment. It …

The time I saw this powder in the store, my eyes caught the words “With Fragrance” written on it. Now the fact that my old powder had a really bad smell, I thought it would be a nice change, or rather upgrade. I bought and it and thought that …

Due to extreme allergies, my two year old Labrador Retriever has been raised on a mostly healthy diet consisting of top-of-line organic food, fresh vegetables, small bits of cheese and liver, and an every once in awhile treat. Sure, there’s an occasional slip, but it seems he’s not …

We regularly buy our pet cats dry foods because they are all grown up and they really love to eat Friskies. A kilo of cat’s dry food would last only for one week so we regularly buy them their food on a local grocery near us.
My mom was already …

Two years ago, I got my first dog, after years of wanting one but not having time for it, I finally got one. It was a little tiny pug, well, at first. Pugs can come in different colors: black, tan, or gray. They are small and usually around 15 …

I have lived with cats for most of my life. and there is nothing like it in the world. Dogs are eager to please and quicker to go along with certain things. Cats are more independent-minded, but I don’t see anything wrong with that. I believe they are just …
