Winter Products Safe for Your Pets and Kids

Pretty soon most of us will be experiencing freezing weather and knee deep in snow and ice. That scenario brings new challenges inside and outside of our homes and for our pets and kids. I was pawing through some newspapers and found this article in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazzette that gives us information on safe products to get rid of pesky mice, an easy way to protect our paws in snow and ice and an ice melter that really is safe for kids and pets and why it's different from other brands that a say they are safe. A good read as we enter this winter season.

Truth in blogging. I actually use one of these products as you can see in the photo.

Me, My Blog and Advertisements

Add caption

Today I would like to bark about advertisements on blogs.  Mommy and I talked about this and we decided to accept advertisements for products that I actually use and products that we’ve been asked to review that we’ve tried out and Mommy approves of.  All of the holistic and nutrition products were recommended to us by our Vet or professionals we respect because of their deep care. You’ll see the products in the right column of this blog.

For instance I’ve been using ENP Glucosamine Plus for 3 years.  It has no salt in it, which I understand is baaaad for me, it’s easy to use (mix with food) and it’s not one of those big bad pills!  Another product that is Mom approved is ProDen Plaque Off Animal.  Made by a human dental company it has special seaweed stuff in it that keep my teeth cleaner and whiter. In June of 2010  I was diagnosed with Cushings Disease. Mom decided against traditional treatments because of my age. Cushings cannot be cured but it can be controlled.  What we have been using are Cushex Drops by Natures Remedies.  It is a herbal supplement that promotes adrenal gland balance.  All we know is that I have not had any uptick in Cushings symptoms. Another winner for my coat and joints has been Holistic Pet’s Wild, Deep Sea Salmon Oil. This oil comes from wild caught salmon, not farm raised and no salt added. It’s the best grade available. Speaking of coats, my furry one, I love my baths and since my Mom started using a Rapid Bath Dog Bathing System it’s much easier for her to bathe me in the tub and her back doesn’t hurt so much. In the summertime she just uses it outside and all of the bubbles go down the alley! BOL!

So we’ll be adding things we use and/or approve of and will be using.  We want you to know that Mom has found a secret in buying this doggy stuff. Truth in blogging: Mom nor I own Amazon stock!  But price whatever you use on Amazon because we have found that products are always less there than they are in the stores. You can even get 15% discounts on top of that if you have things you order often. Trust me!  Let me know what you think or let me know if you have questions!

Silly Pet Products for Pawrents with too much CASH

You know I don't think that there can ever be too much cash to buy stuff for us pets. I mean if somebody or some doggy invented it then it must be OK right?  Well! This article begs to differ but I'm not so sure.  What do you think about this?  Or This?  Or a dog high chair? OMD!
