Because pets are messy!! Here’s some items that help keep my pets and my home looking and smelling great.
This is great for keeping my pets fresh in between baths. Smells great!

Because we’ve got to keep those ears clean and free of infection.

My dogs play hard! They can be destructive at times. Here’s some toys that that can keep up with them.
Kong toys are made pretty tough. They last longer than other brands.
KONG® Knots Frog Squeaker Dog Toy
Great for fetch!
Nerf Glow LED Launcher Dog Toy
These are a real treat. When I need my dogs to just relax and chew, I give them one of these. The three dogs love them! And these will usually keep them quiet for a good 20 minutes.

Staying Safe
Keep your dogs from roaming in the car. They won’t be jumping into your lap when clipped in with these.
Kurgo® Direct to Seatbelt Tether Dogs Adjustable Orange & Black
Because every dog deserves their safe space. This classic crate offers just that. I keep a blanket over top for added coziness.
Top Paw® Single Door Folding Wire Dog Crate
I know these have a bad rep. Our dog trainer did not recommend. But our dog likes space on his walk so he can sniff around. This one has a thicker leash and not those wire thin ones that cut through your leg.

These prevent our dogs from slipping out of their collars. Great for your little escape artists.
JUMP! Martingale Blue Splatter Paint Dog Collar
When you need to set limits. This is sturdy and looks alright. We have one at the top of our stairs to keep the dogs out of the basement.
