About a year ago I got two puppies from a neighbor. They’re siblings and mutt so they have different coats to go with their very different personalities. I got them during winter so they had been inside until it started getting warm enough that we’d let them go outside …

If your ever looking for a good dog as a pet, something non aggressive and good with children, the Golden Retriever what you’re looking for. I have a Golden Retriever, Buddy, and he is probably one of the best behaved dogs I’ve ever seen. They are non aggressive dogs …

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 …

When we first got our dog I didn’t know how things were going to work because we knew that someone was going to have to take him out. Now the problem was that when we weren’t’ home how was this going to happen. Luckily we had ourselves a back …

I have a wonderful, quirky, loving 7 year old Siamese cat. He is my man of the house, my reason to smile when I come home at night. I have always attempted to be sure he had the very best of care and this has included several trials …

I always put little stock in the idea that one brand of dog food was really going to work tons better than another. Dog food is dog food, right? Wrong. I recently switched my fox wire terrier puppy over to Purina Dog Chow from a generic …

A few months ago, my wife and I started worrying about a dog of ours. She was old and fat — about 11-years-old and a solid 20 pounds overweight (that’s not good for a Labrador/dachshund mix). The old girl just kind of lounged around the house and had gotten …

I have a noisy dog. He was rescued and has some attachment issues —“ yes really. When I leave the house to drive to work, he begins his crying and barking. I live in a condo complex. Needless to say, my neighbors are a little bit too close. The …

I recently purchased this terrific product when I found myself in need of a way to keep a sick cat separated from my other pets. It was in the Baby section, but the label stated that it was fine for use with small children or pets. I had to …

My dogs are like my kids. I take their nutrition very seriously and like to offer them many different snacks and chews to help promote mental and dental health. I worry about certain items that may have chemicals or not be made with natural material. This …

We were looking for kitten for six months. It was a very serious decision for us and we obviously didn’t want to get a sick cat (happens too often - believe me). But all these pets stores never guarantee you anything like that. They don’t have any kind of …

I ordered this leash online thinking it was the same as my older Flexi retractable leash. Unfortunately, the quality does not even come close to matching up to the older models, and I would not recommend it to anyone with a dog over twenty pounds.
Aside from the false advertising …

We weren’t sure when my puppy was going to be old enough to be given treats. He is a pretty small dog anyway and we couldn’t find any actual puppy treats. This dog was orginally my mothers, but she gave it to me to bring to my boyfriend four …

My dogs give eight paws up for Dentley’s Chewrite traditional rawhide bones. They love these long-lasting bones, and I’ve been giving the bones to the dogs for the last year or so.
The one I love to get is the huge, 24″ inch bone. It’s actually too big …

This small breed of dog is just very adorable especially if well-taken cared of. I have my shih-tzu (named Balto) almost two years ago and everyone in the family really fall for him.
Shih-Tzus got this very long and fluffy hair and …

This is another one of the new varieties of canned cat food I have tried on my two cats. The flavor’s name sounds good and the list of ingredients on the can is good, but both of my cats turned up their noses at it. They gave it a …

The Belfast Veterinary Hospital is a unique and quirky place. Belfast has a reputation for attracting and housing people with creative tendencies or nontraditional viewpoints on things, and sometimes this comes through in unexpected ways. I visited the vet 3 times.

Innova is a line of premium dog food made by Naturapet. I breed Welsh Corgis, so I have a house full of dogs of all ages to try foods out on. The first question, of course, is will they eat it, which in Corgis is seldom a …

My dog gets really dry flaky skin with scabs. It itches her like crazy and when you remove the scabbiness she gets really red irritated skin. It almost looks like really bad blisters. I started using the shampoo version of this with good results but knew …

Our first dog was quite huge, and I did not want to restrict her too much as far as her lead is concerned so when the time came to buy a lead I decided against buying a standard chain lead and bought a retractable lead instead.
I don’t see the …

My cat usually loves all cat treats, so recently I bought Pounce beef flavour cat treats at my local Sobeys store.
These treats say they are ‘The bigger softer bite’. They certainly are big for a cat, heart shaped and about a centimeter round and half a centimeter high. The …

We had a guinea pig for 18 months and needed to use bedding in her cage. We chose to use Carefresh bedding which is made from recycled paper. It is much cleaner than wood shavings.
Originally we started with Carefresh Original because that is what was available at …

Most dogs love fish, and they rarely get it. I’ll bet that if some company made a fish flavored dog food, it would sell like mad. Well, anyway, I found some fish flavored dog treats that are not too bad.
My dog Bandit will eat almost anything, …

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 …

Getting a yorkie terrier brought love and grief into my life. It was my first experience with a pet, so I had no knowledge of what to ask the breeder except for the price and needed vaccinations. I paid $400 for an adorable 2 pound toy black and golden …

My dog always seemed to have the worst doggie breath in the world. It doesn’t help that there’s fish in her food and right when she’s done eating is when it’s the worst. She is clean and fresh everywhere else but if she breathed anywhere near you …

I have been buying Scoop Away cat litter for years. I do easily switch between brands, depending on price, but I like going back to Scoop Away because I know that it delivers.
It clumps up the waste nice and hard and quickly. I have never had a clump fall …

The cream does not have any specific smell, it can …

We purchased the Gentle Leader for our Lab/Golden Retriever mix puppy when I was pregnant. He’s a large, rambunctious dog with tons of energy and a tendency to pull on the leash. Even as a puppy he was difficult to walk, and when the woman who led …

One thing that concerned me about my dog is health especially his oral hygiene. My dog is not use cleaning his using finger brush for dogs and that’s a big problem for me. I’m afraid that there would be tartar build up and bring problems on dog my health. …

This is really a full service veterinarian’s office. There are 6 vets there. 3 women and 3 men. There is only one vet who I don’t really care for. Most of the vets are kind of animal specific. The 2 Margarets are …

I have a very hyper male cocker spaniel. I rescued him and he hasn’t exactly got what I would call “manners”. One of his biggest problems is pulling the lead from my hand while we are on walks. It doesn’t appear to bother him that the collar is choking …

I usually get Tidy Cats Small Spaces or something similar for my indoor cat, but as everyone else is, I was looking for a better bargain and ran into a coupon for Cat’s Pride Complete. Even without the coupon, Cat’s Pride was $2 cheaper than what I usually buy, …
