With the weather in the northeast becoming nice and warm, our days of being cooped up inside are over. We are either walking in the neighborhood or playing in our other dog friend's yards.
When out with my dog, I make sure now to never leave my house without my dog's newest water bowl from Itzadog.com. These nifty little bowls are called Zuka Bowls, and are just the perfect size for a quick drink or a little something to nibble on. The Zuka Bowls come in two sizes, small and large, and in a wide variety colors and patterns. What I like most about the Zuka Bowl, is that it comes with a handy dandy carabiner that can easily hook onto a belt loop or leash. It can't get much more convenient than that.
Just like us, our furry friends need to be well hydrated in the summer. Make life easy for yourself and your dog, and carry around a Zuka Bowl from Itzadog.com. Your dog will thank you for it.
Is your dog a total chowhound, who eats his food so fast he barely leaves time to chew? This behavior is not only a little disturbing to watch but it is also unhealthy for dogs since it can cause bloat which is a potentially fatal condition. The Brake-Fast Bowl is an amazing new bowl that will help slow down your pooch so they can enjoy their food and stay healthy too.
The Brake-Fast bowl works in two ways. First, it has strategically placed obstructions (pegs) so that your dog has to take the time to eat around them and get the food out from between the pegs. Second, it slides around on the floor while your dog is chowing down so that your pup cannot plunge its face into the bowl without it sliding away a bit.
We tested this bowl on a very hungry Sheltie named Buster, who was eating his food so quickly he was throwing up after meals. On his first attempt eating out of the bowl it took him about 5 minutes longer than usual to finish his meal (his normal time was about 45 seconds). I was extremely happy with how well the bowl slowed down his eating so that he actually had time to taste the premium food that he gets fed. Over the span of about a week he did get a bit faster at eating once he figured out how to the bowl worked but it still slows him down a lot and we are very satisfied with the results and he no longer throws up after meals.
The Brake-Fast Bowl comes in plastic and the new metal design and is durable and dishwasher safe. Also, it comes in three sizes so dogs large and small can enjoy the benefits of slower eating (for those flatter face pups out there, go with the small) and it works with kibble or canned food. If your dog eats like the food is going out of style then the Brake-Fast bowl is the answer you have been searching for.
Have you ever gone into a dog lovers house and been overwhelmed by how much of their house is dedicated to their pooch? Yes, I want to give my dog the best, but I do not want the style of my house to “go to the dogs”. Now, with the elegant, modern and stylish Wowo pet furniture you do not need to sacrifice your décor to give your dog the best.
I recently received the raised feeder from Vurv Designs and I was extremely impressed with the craftsmanship, style and sleek design. Not only are raised feeders better for your dog’s health by reducing neck and back strain and easing digestion, but when it is made out of a gorgeous curved wood platform, it is better for your decor too. It is more than a dog bowl, it is a work of art that will add to your room instead of taking away from it.
The quality of the Wowo feeder also soars above the rest. It is hand made to last by true furniture craftsmen using real wood veneers and is available in bamboo, cherry, wenge and aluminum finish. Also, it is not mass-produced so yours is sure to be an exclusive piece. They are available in a variety of sizes ranging from small (1 pint) to extra large (3 quarts) because dogs of all sizes need style in their lives!
If you want style and function and beautiful furniture for your pampered pooch then the products from Vurv Designs are for you. Want even more great pieces to match?

Who doesn't love cake? When you go to a birthday party, it is really the only reason you hang around until the end, right? Now, your dog doesn't have to drool any longer while you eat cake. Your dog can have some too.
Puppycake.com makes cake mix that even I (believe me... I am no Betty Crocker) can make. The mix comes in two flavors, banana and carob... each one will make your dogs mouth water. Both cake mixes are made with only the best ingredients for the good health of your dog. The directions are clearly written out for you on the box and only need a few added ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. The cakes come with frosting too (that’s the best part of the cake), that again is very simple to make.
So maybe your puppy is having a birthday or you just want to let your pooch know how much you do love ‘em. Make them a cake from Puppycake.com.
We all want our dogs to be happy and most importantly, healthy. My dog has a food allergy to chicken, so I am very careful about what I give to him. As a result, my eyes are always open for vegetarian treats for my dog.
I found a website called Bluedogbakery.com, that makes not only vegetarian treats, but they are low fat too. All the treats made by the bakers at Bluedogbakery.com are all natural and contain no animal by-products, artificial flavorings or colorings and no artificial preservatives. This stuff is about as healthy as you can get.
Bluedogbakery.com makes treats for all size dogs. I especially like the small treats. They are easy to take on the run and they are great to stuff into my dog's favorite toy. If you are a new puppy parent, theses treats are just what you need to help in training.
You can purchase these terrific treats at various stores. Check out the Bluedogbakery.com website for a complete listing.
A little over a year ago, I found out that my dog has a food allergy. Every time he ate chicken, he would get sick. It wasn't fun! I changed his food to an all vegetarian diet. But, I was still having trouble finding treats that were easy on his stomach. I found a website called Henryandsons.com and they specialize in making all natural, vegetarian and vegan treats for dogs. Henryandsons.com dog treats do not contain any meat, chicken, pork or fish products. In addition, they also do not contain any lard, animal by-products, anything artificial GMO ingredients, added salt, wheat, corn, soy or chemical preservatives.

I recently switched all of my family's food over to natural, organic food. Then I realized my dog isn't eating organically, and I want her to be as healthy as she can be. So I started researching organic dog food.
I was pleasantly surprised to discover that one of my favorite organic brands, Newman's Own, also makes organic pet products! They have dry food, wet food, and treats for both dogs and cats in different variety's.
I tried a number of their treats (peanut butter, chicken and more) and my dog loved each and every one. They are a great size for any dog. And she gobbled the dry food as quickly as her good old favorite. I feel better knowing I am giving her all natural food. There are no poultry by-products, no antibiotics or steroids, no chemicals, no artificial colors or flavors, and no wheat or corn. When you read the ingredients it sounds like something you would actually want to eat: organic brown rice, organic oats, natural chicken, organic peas, and more. This is so important for your pet's health!
If you are interested in learning more, check out the Company's FAQ page. You can purchase Newman's Own products from your local pet stores. Here is a list to find a store near you.

Each dog is unique, so shouldn't they each have their own, personal dog bowl that reflects their look and personality?
I have found an artist, Debby of Faux Paw Productions, who creates beautiful, solid and substantial ceramic dog bowls, treat jars, and other accessories, and can match them to your dog's breed, look, and personality.
These handmade, hand thrown bowls have a nice, glossy finish. They are made of the finest white porcelain china clay and made on a potters wheel. The colors are extremely vibrant and bold. The detail in the artistry is amazing. Debby free hand draws every image; then she paints the bowls individually, bisque fires them for 14 hours, glazes them with three hand coated applications, then finish fires them for 8 more hours, and then cools them down for 20 hours. Each piece is a unique work of art.
Design your own dog bowl or take a look at the current product selection. Also, be sure to take a look at the other special items that Debby creates: portraits of your pet (amazing!!!), dog trivets and for those with feline friends, plenty of kitty items like bowls, cat clocks, and more.
This is one site you should all check out for amazing custom pieces for your pet. These would make wonderful holiday gifts as well!
In my house, I try to buy only the healthiest foods for my family. I shop generally at Whole Foods, try to buy only natural and fresh foods without preservatives, with things like flaxseed and wholesome ingredients. This philosophy applies not only to my kids, but to my dog as well.
I was recently introduced to Homestyle Select meals for dogs. These all-natural, fresh meals are perfect for maintaining your dogs health while giving them a yummy meal, too. These refrigerated meals come in a log (sort of like Toll-house cookies that you slice and bake) and are very easy to use. You just slice it on the marking on the package, serve it to your dog, and then refrigerate it. It is just like fresh cold cuts or other fresh food.
I tried the chicken, vegetable & rice dinner with my dog and she absolutely loved it. Now, to be totally honest, she loves any type of food, but this one she particularly savored extra-long and I saw extra mouth-licking for awhile after she was finished.
I like that the food has real veggies in it and that it is fresh (there is 70% meat in it!) The rice used is brown rice for easy digestion, and there is also flax-seed oil added for healthy skin and coat. The food is part of the PAN diet, which stands for pasteurized, all natural, and nutrient dense. There is a special food for puppies, too.
