Last month when the first snow hit, my husband and I took the dogs to PetSmart and purchased a pair of Muttluks Dog Booties. They were for our little Boston Terrier who is about 27lbs. We bought the shoes after reading several good reviews online about the shoes protecting …

My dog is not just a pet, but a member of our family. At nearly three years of age, I take great care to find healthy treats and toys for my Labrador Retriever, which means frequent trips to the pet store and lots of reading.
The average dog treat …

A couple of my friend recommended long ago that I go to Sicam Veterinary Clinic; the veterinarian is supposedly really good but there’s always a long line so you’d have to go there early or it’s always just luck when there’s only 2-3 dogs ahead of you.
My puppy was …

I am a bargain hunter. I try to pay as little as possible for almost everything and that included cat litter. Not even multi-cat litter made any difference. But, recently I’ve come to change my mind entirely about that.
I’ve tried all sorts of litter to keep odors from the …

Like many people, I have a cat. Also like many people, I sometimes have trouble making ends meet. One month I was particularly short on cash, so I looked for kitty litter that was a little cheaper than the kind I usually buy.
I was browsing in Shop Rite and …

Conventional flea prevention products can be dangerous, not only for our pets but for us as well. After my golden retriever broke out in a bright red, textured rash and began vomiting within an hour of the vet applying a spot-on flea prevention medication, I have used natural flea …

Do you like dog? What kind of dog that you have in your house? Few years ago, I used to have five Pomeranian dogs in my house. First I only have one female Pomeranian, but then I decided to buy another male Pomeranian and I though I could breed …

Hawaii’s supposed favorite pet supply store is Pet’s Discount or its sister store, Pet Central. Well, I am here to tell you that this store is usually under stocked and overpriced. I still buy toys there for my dog on occasion but it is mostly a rip …

My younger cat has very long fur. Though he did not shed very much when I first got him as a kitten, he did spend a lot of time grooming himself and developed hairballs at only 6 months of age. I’d had luck previously with hairball gel with malt …

My sister bought 2 of these, what I first thought, the most unpleasant and strange looking pet one could ever have, and frankly I did not understand why would she even want something like this. I mean who would touch that?
When I was around them I spent most of the …

I am very fond of pets right from my childhood days. I have had loads of pets throughout my life. The gold fish aquarium is one of them that I possess today too.
A year ago, I went to the aquarium shop and selected a 2 feet length by 1.5 …

First of all it is important to know the breed characteristics. Boxers …

My cats usually get dry food. Once in a while they get a treat of canned food. Some of it they like. Sme they don’t and with three of them, there is always one who likes something while the other two walk away from it. The other …

Cosmic Catnip proclaims itself to be the number 1 brand of catnip. For the record, it’s easy to see why after having used it. There is something about Cosmic Catnip that drives felines crazy in the best of ways.
I’ve bought a few other brands of catnip and eagerly given …

I know a lot of people hate cats. I was always a dog person, but three years ago a cat adopted me and I have really come to appreciate cats as pets. They have very interesting personalities, and some cat-haters seem to resent the fact that cats, unlike …

Unlike me, most people don’t have twenty-one dogs running around on their property but like me, most people who own dogs know how obnoxious loud barking can be. At first we would try using spray bottles but if we became absent minded and left the bottle(s) where the …

Living in an apartment complex was very difficult for my senior dog. She was getting older and became very agitated when I left the house. This wasn’t a huge problem when I lived in a place with a yard, but being locked up in the apartment all the time …

In May, my oldest cat was diagnosed with Irritable Bowl Disorder. For months I had been having trouble finding a food that he would like that would also be easier for him to digest. I decided to try Wellness Complete Health Chicken Dry Formula.
This is an all-natural …

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 …

Once, having returned from a short trip, I had discovered that one of my kitties failed to use his litterbox. Obviously, my absense was a big stress for him, and some cats will react to stress in this way. He must have peed in the basement once or twice. …

My Golden Retriever absolutely loves the Blue Health Bars from Blue Buffalo. They come in a wide variety of flavors and she has enjoyed every one of them. We started her off with the yogurt and apples and she loved it immediately. Then we gave her …

I fed my dogs Exceed Lamb and Rice for many years as a maintenance food and was truly satisfied with it, but eventually found a healthier food for my dogs. This food is a good, low priced food that in my opinion is the best choice for someone …

I happened to be owned by two very fussy felines, named Pyewacket and Kissy. To put it mildly they are pampered and spoiled and refuse to eat cheaper brands of any kind of pet food. They pretty much stick to the same kind of pet food all the …

Koefran Services for Pets is a very caring organization which provides cremation services for Northern California and Nevada area veterinarians, shelters, and humane societies.

I bought my one and only Himalayan cat over 12 years ago. He is still with us but I will never buy this breed ever again. They are handsome cats but just an awful breed. These cats are half Persian and half Siamese cat. …

Today I am raving about Spring Valley’s Natural Vitamin C with Rose Hips. This vitamin was a real life saver for my pet cat Ash.

I recently received a coupon for a free bag of bacon and cheese flavored Beggin’ Strips dog treats. These are the soft, jerky-like treats that are made to look and smell like real bacon; according to the advertisements, dogs will think the treats taste like bacon, too. …

Advocate is an easy to apply topical treatment for dogs (not sure if you can get it for cats as well). I give it 10 out of 10! I cannot believe people still use other methods for ridding their canine friends of fleas and …

Two years ago I started looking for a dog for my daughter to show. Because she is on the smaller side I wanted to get her something smaller, but most of the toy breeds seem to yap and bark too much. I also needed something that would be able …

My cat hates anything seafood related, and though he sometimes likes chicken-flavored cat food, he won’t usually eat chicken-flavored cat treats. This can make giving him a special snack more difficult. He loves catnip, though, and often eats it when I give it to him, so when …

Not many people know about schipperkes (pronounced :skipper-key) , especially since they are not quite as common as a chihuahua or pomeranian. Me and my fiance own one and it just so happens that this was the first schipperke we have ever owned. Schipperkes are solid black, cobby and …

I have a lot of small pocket pets and exotics as a side effect of working at a petstore. So when my regular small animal vet moved to Pheonix I was a bit at a loss. Small animal vets are not very common because they require a lot of …

Every cat loves a place to nap. Some cats sleep on the floor. Others prefer their favorite human’s bed. My cats prefer the window sill Cat Nappers we got for them.

We were thrilled to bring our new puppy home. It was a new chapter in a slowly growing relationship, a beginning of what felt like a real family, a… sudden introduction of fleas into my apartment. It was like any typical discovery - sleepy little puppy with …

After a breeder friend of mine recommended Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lover’s Soul and I found that my puppies did wonderfully on this puppy food, I decided to try the adult and senior blends for my older dogs. The food comes in a kibble or canned forms, but …

In my house, scoopable litter is the only way to go as far as the fur babies are concerned. They hate the cheap, clay flakes - so much, in fact, that they will intentionally kick as much of it out of the box as possible, then do their thing …

When it comes to choosing a good vet, it can be difficult, and I can be very picky. I have had horses, exotic birds, ferrets, rabbits, dogs, cats, guinea pigs and more. I have worked in the pet industry for over 17 years. Because of this …

We have two small dogs, Samantha is a yorkie-poo and Missy is a maltesse. Samantha has more poodle in her than yorkie so her hair is a bit more curly then Missy’s is. We took both dogs to Petsmart in Dundalk, to give them the full Good Dog …

When I first moved to Pennsylvania, I was worried whether I would be able to find a good vet for my dog as she moved into her “golden years”. After a few phone calls, I decided to try Mahoning Valley Animal Hospital in Andreas, PA.
