Good eats and teeth health for dogs.

Trying to reward for learning and training and not overfeeding in the process is always a challenge.

We love the Train-me and Pet Botanic treats.  They are small so the dogs don't get overly full while training.

These elk antlers were gifted to me for my dogs to try out, and this was their favorite things to chew on.  It was their go to every time over the other bones we had for them.  And these are much safer as they don't become gummy and stringy over time.

Travel accessories

We travel our dogs quite a bit even when camping or taking a two-hour drive to our camp at Toledo Bend Lake.  These items have come in pretty useful during those times.

This bed is easy to assemble and disassemble to wash. And it comes with a leash to secure your pet. My fur baby loves riding in his seat.  He feels super relaxed and sleeps comfortably on longer rides.  When he has to go work with me on vet days, it doubles as a bed for him sleep in by my desk.  This has been a great overall purchase.

We used these with Charlie and Luna were puppies. I loved that you could actually buckle the straps in to help hold it on the seat. (That was not in the instructions - that's just what we did). Charlie outgrew his, but we still use this as their t...

These potty pads work great.  They are a decent size for my 12 lb dogs, and absorb quite a bit if I'm late getting home.  It's nice having them shipped monthly on Subscribe & Save.

I use this water filter for my fur baby's water bowl and my fish's water change.  This helps save money on buying gallons of water and reduces my waste.

It's always a fine line between wanting your dogs to bark for danger, but not just for any reason.  I may have to invest in this to help train my Charie on when it's okay to bark.

Grooming and general care

Knowing how often to groom your fur baby to help keep them clean and matte free is essential.  My fur babies sleep with us, so making sure they are clean are important to us and them.  I sweat they feel better after they've had their baths.

I have a long-hair dachshund that we try to brush several times a week, but I'm still trying to learn what her best grooming schedule will be.

Apparel for our fur babies

My shorthair doxie doesn't really like wearing clothes, but he didn't have any objections to this jacket once we got outside and he realized how cold it was.
