The “wad” in DINKWAD stands for “dual income no kids with a dog.” Our chihuahua, Maple, is our child. She gets the best of everything! Sharing my favorite purchases for her that improve her overall quality of life - which I’d say is close to perfect....
Car safety is critical for our pets if/when you drive with them! I wanted something enclosed, and let me tell you this has been our best purchase yet. Maple loves it and sleeps peacefully in every ride. This reduced her car anxiety by so much!
FRISCO Travel Safety Dog & Cat Carrier, Medium
Please keep pet first aid handy! They rely on us to keep them safe and happy. It is always better to have this and not need it, than need it and not have it 🙏
Trail Dog Medical First Aid Kit
We live in an area where there is a big tick population. Some collars have way too high doses of chemicals, and this one is an all-natural tick preventative. We love wondercide. Purchased 5 times so far!

Petloox Donut Dog Bed - Anxiety Relief S
We fly with our girl a ton. She’s a great flyer! I can’t explain how much we wished we got a rolling carrier earlier. It felt like we were doing farmer carries with her in the airport. This makes airport travel a breeze. Fits great on most airlines M...

Pawtitas Soft Adjustable Reflective Dog Harness Small
This light up strip covers one of the sides of her harness. It’s reflective too when it isn’t on. If we walk at dusk or at night we make sure this is on. It makes it 10x easier to see her and allows drivers to know we have a small pet on the sidewalk...
NITE IZE NiteDog Rechargeable LED Dog Collar Cover
This also goes on her harness! Love that it has a QR code to scan in case the air tag is out of range or gets lost. Keep that information up to date 💪

The day I introduced my dog to a heated blanket was the day everything changed in our home. We have 3. She is beyond obsessed and barks at us to turn it on. If you have a small dog that loves heat, thank me later for this purchase.
Westinghouse Heated Throw Blanket, 50x60, Beige
I once had a vet tell me that healthy omegas prolong the lives of dogs so this purchase is constantly on order. One pump in her food per day. She doesn’t have a ton of hair, but her fur and skin is super soft and clear. I think in due part to this su...
