🍗 Dog Food & Mealtime
The kibble, wet food and mealtime favourites I’ve actually fed Bear through different stages of his life.
This was Bear’s main kibble for YEARS. 🐾 I started feeding it to him when he was around one, and he continued eating it until just after turning three. He did really well on it for a long time, and I loved having a food that worked for him consisten...
Authority Everyday Health All Life Stages — Chicken & Rice
Our newer kibble and so far, the switch has been SO worth it. Bear started having some digestive issues, so I wanted something that was more specifically geared toward digestive support. Since switching him over, I’ve noticed a real improvement and h...
Authority Digestive Support Adult — Chicken & Rice
I absolutely LOVE this as a topper for Bear’s kibble. Instead of feeding it as his entire meal, I add some of the wet food on top of his dry food and mix everything together. He loves it, it makes his meals more interesting, and I like that it’s part...
Royal Canin Digestive Care Wet Dog Food
This is actually the kibble Bear started on when he was a baby! 🥹 It’s specifically made for small-breed puppies, which was exactly what I was looking for when he was little. He eventually graduated from this to the Authority adult food, so Authorit...
Authority Everyday Health Small Breed Puppy — Chicken & Rice
🦴 Treats & Snacks
Bear-approved treats and little snacks that have earned a permanent place in our pet cupboard. 🐾
One of Bear’s FAVOURITE treats. 🫐🎃 He genuinely gets excited for these! I also really like that Cookie Pal makes these with human-grade ingredients. They’re soft-baked rather than super hard and crunchy, which is another reason I like having them a...
Cookie Pal Blueberry & Pumpkin Soft-Baked Bites
These are such a good size for little rewards, especially when I don’t want to give Bear a huge treat every single time. 🐾 They’re soft, easy to break up and chicken-flavoured, which is always a win with him. I especially like smaller treats like th...
Blue Buffalo BLUE Bits Natural Chicken Training Treats
Peanut butter + Milk-Bone was obviously going to get Bear’s attention. 🥜 These are more of a fun treat in his rotation, with that extra peanut-butter coating that makes them a little more exciting than a regular biscuit. Definitely one of those “spe...
Milk-Bone Dipped Peanut Butter Treats
I like keeping a mix of crunchy and softer treats around for Bear, and these are one of our soft options. They’re easy for him to eat and perfect when I want to give him something a little more substantial than a tiny training treat. Simple, affordab...
Milk-Bone Soft & Chewy Dog Treats
These little ones are SO convenient for Bear because he’s a smaller dog. 🐾 I can give him a quick treat without feeling like I’m handing him a giant biscuit, and the small size also makes them easy to keep around for everyday rewards. A classic that...
Milk-Bone Mini’s Flavor Snacks
A bigger version for when Bear deserves an actual biscuit instead of one of his tiny treats. I like the assorted flavours because there’s a little variety in the box, and these are one of those classic dog treats that are easy to keep stocked at home...
Milk-Bone Flavor Snacks — Assorted Meat Flavours
🦷 Dental Treats & Chews
Dental chews I’ve given Bear as part of his treat rotation to help support his everyday oral-care routine. 🦷🐾
Probably one of the most recognizable dental treats, and Bear is definitely happy to eat them. I get the Teenie size because it’s made for smaller dogs, and I like being able to give him something he sees as a treat while also incorporating a dental ...
GREENIES Teenie Dental Treats
Another dental chew Bear has tried and enjoyed. 🦷 I like rotating between different options instead of always buying the exact same treat, and the little toothbrush shape of these is honestly adorable. They’re also specifically sized for smaller dog...
WHIMZEES Brushzees Small Dental Treats
One of the other dental chews I’ve kept in Bear’s rotation. I specifically go for dental treats intended for his size, and he gets to think he’s simply receiving another snack while I’m sneaking a little oral care into his routine. A win for both of ...
DentaLife Daily Oral Care Small/Medium Dental Treats
I like having durable chew toys available for Bear, especially ones that give him something different from his regular plush toys and balls. The wishbone shape is designed to make it easier for dogs to hold while chewing, and I appreciate that this c...
Benebone Wishbone Durable Dog Chew Toy — 2-Pack
Taking care of Bear’s teeth is something I wanted to be more intentional about, so I like having a proper dental kit at home. This one comes with dog toothpaste, a regular toothbrush and a finger brush, which gives me different options depending on w...
Arm & Hammer Fresh Breath Dog Dental Kit — Chicken
🩺 Health, Wellness & Protection
Products I use to support Bear’s everyday care, comfort and protection based on what works well for him.
This was a newer brand for us, but I gave it a try and definitely don’t regret it. Bear has a sensitive stomach, so I personally preferred trying a topical flea and tick treatment rather than giving him another oral product. It’s applied directly to ...
K9 Praventa 360 Topical Flea & Tick Treatment
🛁 Grooming & Bath Time
Shampoos, grooming essentials and everyday care products I use to keep Bear clean, comfortable and looking his best.
With Bear being a Maltipoo, keeping his fluffy coat clean, soft and manageable is important to me! 🥥 I love that this combines shampoo and conditioner in one product, making bath time a little easier without needing multiple bottles. The papaya and ...
🛁 TropiClean Luxury 2-in-1 Shampoo & Conditioner — Papaya & Coconut
🧸 Toys, Playtime & Enrichment
Bear’s favourite toys, interactive activities and playful finds that keep him entertained and busy.
Bear has accumulated quite the toy collection, so having somewhere to keep everything organized is a must. I love that this toy box is practical without looking out of place in the house. It’s a simple way to keep all his toys together instead of hav...
Joyhound Linen Toy Box Dog Toy
Sometimes the simplest toys are the most entertaining! I love having different types of balls in Bear’s toy collection, and this spikey design adds a little extra texture to playtime. Perfect for tossing around and keeping an energetic pup entertaine...
Joyhound® Spikey Ball Dog Toy
One of Bear’s absolute FAVOURITE toys! 🐾 I love that this isn’t just something for him to chew on — I can also put treats inside to make playtime more interesting. It’s such a good way to keep him occupied and give him something to work on instead o...
