Food
I have used plenty of different foods at various price points over the years. These ones are working well for her atm
My dog loves this dry food and I know that she is getting the right nutrients which won’t irritate her sensitive tummy.
Black Hawk - Healthy Benefits Sensitive Gut Dry Dog Food
My dog has been enjoying this newer dry dog food and it’s great that it has things in it to help her gut health.

My Maltese shitzu loves these trays. She gets 1 per day and loves all the different flavours! Her favourite is chicken though 🐾

My fur baby loves all the flavours of these trays. They are the perfect meal size for her as she’s a Maltese shitzu.
Optimum Adult Wet Dog Food Lamb & Rice Trays 6x100g
I give my dog these when she has a particularly sensitive tummy. They are like a smooth pate type consistency but she seems to like them.
ProBalance Sensitive Skin Mackerel Adult Dog Food 95gx12
My dog loves these and they are the perfect size for a meal. This one looks a bit like cat food with small flatter chunks but I think the small dogs find that easier to eat.
I add a bit of the Blackhawk dry food on the top and she eats the lot!

Grooming
My dog has a few allergies and these shampoos work pretty well to try to reduce the itching. I regularly groom my dog at home so I have included what I use too!
I have been using this medicated dog shampoo on my Maltese Shitzu for a few years now. It’s super gentle.

We use this whitening shampoo to keep our dog’s coat looking whiter.
Wahl Whitening Dog Shampoo 700ml
This flea shampoo works well and we use it in combination with the other shampoos on the list.
Fidos Fre Itch Flea Shampoo
I bought a set similar to this to groom my dog and they work really well. You can use the curved scissors to trim all over. The thinning shears around the face and the metal comb is great for after using the thinning shears to get the hair off. A set...
7" Professional Pet Dog Grooming Scissors Shear Hair ...
These facial scissors ✂️ are great for under the eyes as they don’t have a sharp point. Especially good for removing the hair which has tear stains and build up.
Bow + Bell Facial Dog Scissor
A slicker brush is essential when you have a Maltese Shitzu as they have longer hair which can get knotty.
Bow + Bell Cushion Dog Slicker Brush
It’s important to trim your dogs nails and these ones work well for my small dog.
Bow + Bell Dog Nail Clipper
Accessories
I love how cute my dog looks in these items and so will you!
I have this exact set for my Maltese Shitzu and it is really great quality. The harness is adjustable and I love the strong carabiner on the lead which is super strong.

Health
Dog’s health is important so you can avoid those costly trips to the vet! I like using these things to keep my fur baby healthy.
My dog had an outbreak of fleas and this chewable tablet really worked to get rid of them. For a few weeks afterwards I was finding dead fleas in her as well so it worked for the full time. Would recommend.
NexGard SPECTRA Chews For Small Dogs 3.6-7.5kg
This is the probiotic powder I use for my dog. It’s not too bad price wise and contains multiple strains of probiotics, prebiotics and digestive enzymes.
It’s easy to use by just sprinkling onto my dogs wet food 🙂

My dog loves these treats and they keep her teeth clean and breath fresh.
