Should You Try a New Dog Food? Not All Dog Food is Created Equally

People are told that we ‘are what we eat’. So, can’t the same be true for our pets? You betcha it can! Buying the right dog food is smart for a number of reasons and companies who offer Advance dog food and other high-quality brands will tell you that you can tell the difference between a dog fed a lousy diet and a dog fed dog food that’s optimised for maximum nutrition, taste, and overall health and longevity.

There are a number of dog food companies that cater to clients who shop at the grocery store for their pet food. This food is ok but most veterinarians would equate it to eating “OK”, not balanced as a food pyramid would dictate.  If you’re buying dog food without a strong focus on going above and beyond legal guidelines in quality control and outcome then it’s a bit like feeding your dog fast food --- on a daily basis.

Many high end pet food companies exist. Companies like Advance Dog Food, Eukanuba, Science Diet, K9 Natural, and Royal Canin might not be sold in all grocery stores but buying one of these brands from a dog supplies store or website is smart for multiple reasons.

  • Higher end dog food will meet the nutritional needs of your dog.
  • Higher end dog food results in your dog smelling better.
  • Better dog food promotes a healthy looking coat.
  • Better dog food results in fewer problems with foul-smelling “dog breath”.
  • Dogs who are consistently fed a higher end pet food have fewer health problems.

Advance Dog Food, for example, offers a number of options. One option is their puppy food, which is rehydratable. There are options for large breed dogs as well as their nutritional needs differ from that of smaller breed dogs.  Advance Dog Food also offers adult dog food, senior dog food, and then options that include specific elements, such as chicken, turkey and rice, and other options.

Specific pet food might be a necessity for your dog. If he has a weight problem, food allergies, or specific health issues, consider researching better dog food brands and trying something new.

Tip for Switching Dog Food


Some dogs don’t take well to sudden food changes. Consider mixing a little of a new food in gradually, before you run out of his or her regular food. That way it’ll be gentler on the dog’s tummy and if you start to see a poor reaction digestively, you can (hopefully) thwart a big mess that could happen with a sudden change.  If you have concerns about your dog, don’t hesitate to talk to your vet who can help you choose the right food for him as well as to ascertain whether or not there are any other problems besides food at play.

Treat Your New Cat for Worms and Maybe Fleas, Too

Many kittens are born with intestinal worms. That’s why most kittens sold in a pet store are de-wormed before they’re sold. If you accept a ‘free kitten to a good home’ you should take that new kitten to a vet as soon as possible. If that’s not immediately possible, consider, at the least, buying the right worm treatments to protect your new pet.

Worms and Fleas


Fleas can be another problem when taking in a free kitten, especially if the mother was feral. Closely examine the kitten before taking it home. Fleas aren’t always immediately evident but a strong sign of a problem is flea dirt throughout the cat. It looks a lot like coffee grinds and is often on the spine of the kitten, near his tail.

While worm medicines are easy to administer to kittens and cats, young kittens can be tricky to treat for fleas. Talk to your vet for very young kittens and buy a product specifically designed for young and smaller cats. Products such as Advocate Flea Treatments and Worm Treatments by Drontal and other companies generally list a size range and age range on their packaging.

Is your Kitten Healthy?


Whether you’re taking in a kitten or a full grown cat, you’ll want to be sure it’s healthy. An illness that’s missed or ignored could leave a pet owner devastated. Yes, a vet visit can be pricey but it is well worth the investment as you’ll know your cat will be healthy and happy. Look for an alert and well-fed cat who’s playful and who seems interested in its surroundings. Once you’ve got it home, take a look at the litter box to make sure all looks normal and take note of a healthy or lack of a healthy appetite so you can be sure to act swiftly if there are any problems.

Online Pet Medicine Supplies


Many pet supplies companies exist and are prolific online. And pet supplies products such as medicines can be purchased online, helping you save money and time. In terms of pet medicine, if you are sure they’re safe for your pet’s circumstance, buying them direct can save you money versus buying them from your vet.

You can buy Advocate flea treatments, worm treatments by Drontal and other companies, and you can buy other medications, such as antiseptic spray, heartworm pills for dogs, and bone and joint supplements for your pet in addition to highly recommended pet foods.

Buy Cat and Dog Tags Online

Do you have name and information tags for your pet? Does your pet wear them always? It’s smart to have pet tags regardless of where you live and whether or not your pet goes outside or not. You can find a number of personalized pet tag providers that will engrave tags with personalized information, reducing the chance of losing one of your four-legged friends forever.

Dog Tags


You might have a dog tag from the place you live because you went to the local place to get your dog license. But it probably just has a number on it. Personalised dog tags could have your phone number, your dog’s name, and any important info, such as medical issues listed. These additional details can help you rest assured that if your dog does get lost, you’ll have a greater chance of getting notified and of your pooch getting the care and comfort he or she deserves while they wait for you to fetch them.

Cat Tags


Outdoor cats can get themselves into all sorts of trouble. Cat tags can identify them and assure you that if your cat wanders off or if, God forbid, something terrible happens outside, you’ll get a call.

Indoor cats need tags, too. If your cat is an indoor cat, a tag is still a smart idea. If he or she somehow gets out of the house and isn’t accustomed to being outdoors, this puts your pet in danger. They’ll be in danger especially due to the fact that they might not be familiar enough with typical cat instincts that would help them find their way back home.

You might think your cat won’t adjust to a tag. Hopefully you’re buying it for him when he’s a kitten so he won’t have a big period of adjustment but if your cat is older and protests, you could try leaving the tag and collar on for a few minutes a day and then increase the timing until he no longer notices. Cat treats or cat toys could come in very handy during this period of time where you acclimatize kitty to his new collar. Don’t forget, YOU are the boss (despite his efforts to convince you otherwise!)

Buy Pet Tags Online


You can find great deals on pet tags online. You can buy cute tags with personalized details that suit your pet and / or your budget. Engraved tags can be sent to you fairly quickly although pet suppliers who sell other products typically send them separately from other orders as they’ll come directly from an engraver.

Get peace of mind by knowing your pet is easily identifiable to others and buy your pet a name tag right away.

Buying Dog Barking Collars Online

The internet could help you solve your dog’s barking problem if you utilise a pet supplies website to help. How? Whether you have a dog now or are planning on getting one, there are some great tools that can help you prevent excessive barking. You can buy a number of dog barking collars online, for instance.

Dogs do bark by nature but specific corrective dog collars could be helpful when you have excessive barking problems on your hands. Your online pet supplies resource can help you with this problem through dog barking collars, such as the Dynavet Dog Training Collar – Anti Barking System or the Multivet Commander Dog Training Collar. You could also buy remote training collars in addition to invisible fencing systems for your overall training efforts.

The Problem with Excessive Barking


Barking might give you a headache but it might do even worse if it’s constant and have your neighbours complaining, too! Some dogs and some breeds seem more prone to barking and it can be wearing on the nerves after a while!

Yes, dogs innately feel the need to bark but you can train them so that their barking isn’t an excessive problem for you and so that it can be used on command or in certain scenarios.

But Isn’t a Dog Barking Collar Cruel to the Dog?


Dog lovers are often concerned about corrective tools. There are dog collars on the market that shock a dog when he or when she barks.  You don’t have to hurt your dog to train him or her. There are no shock dog barking collars from pet supplies stores that will use alternate methods to let your dog know that unnecessary barking is an undesirable behaviour. Some systems spray at your dog’s snout a substance your dog won’t like.

Remote spray systems can help you control other unwanted behaviours, such as jumping on the furniture, jumping on people, digging holes, and other such behaviours by interrupting them.

There are some great online dog supplies that can help you with training, provide your pet with supplies such as toys and treats, where you can buy dog beds, flea treatments, pet medications, coats, collars, and a number of other pet supplies. When you find a great online supplier, it makes it easy. Look for someone with lots of variety, posted policies so that you know precisely what you’re dealing with, and good reputation.

Puppy Dog Collars and Other Essential Puppy Stuff

 Dog collars are one of the first pet supplies you’ll want to be sure to purchase when you’re planning for the arrival of a new puppy. A new addition to your family is an exciting time. 

You can find a lot of great pet supplies or dog supplies online. Not only are there some great dog collars and dog tags available that will look adorable on your new fur baby but dog collars are an essential dog training tool, too.

You can buy dog collars, dog harnesses, dog muzzles, and even dog backpacks to strap onto your pet for training, correction, and safety.

Some collars are a part of a harness and are designed to make it difficult for your pet to pull you. Some collars go over the pets mouth and attach to a muzzle. Some collars are choke chains, designed to put a stop to pulling because you attach the leash through a loop that will pull tight if your puppy tries to get too far ahead.  And some collars operate genetically with a ring for a tag and leash but look great due to specific designs or personalising.

What else do you need for your puppy?


In terms of pet supplies, here are a few ideas beyond the dog collar:

  • A leash. There are a lot of leash options on the market and your pet supplies provider may have a few options for you including nylon or leather leashes or perhaps a jewelled leash. Some leashes are equipped with a hold-all pocket that you can fit items into, such as bags for then you stoop to scoop and other places for your keys, change, or a snack. You’ll even find special leashes designed for use when you want to ride a bike and leash your dog to trot along side you.
  • Dishes. Puppy dishes for food and water are nice. You can use any dish but these sorts of dishes are less likely for your pup to knock over.
  • Food. You’ll want to choose the right puppy food and you’ll want to buy some treats as well so you can pamper your pup and use them as a great training aid.
  • Grooming supplies.  Grooming supplies are important. Start as you mean to go on with good grooming habits for your pup and you’ll minimise pet hair, sharp nails, and get him or her adjusted to grooming so that it won’t be a big ordeal.
  • Extras. You should consider shopping for a vet, considering pet insurance, and you might even want some fun extras such as doggie clothing, a carrying case for car rides, and a doggie bed (although chances are that your new puppy will prefer sleeping with you --- if you allow it!

Enjoy your new puppy!

Dog Toys – Yes, You Need Them

Dog toys are more than fun for your pet; they’re essential. Dog toys can be an excellent training aid, can help your pet cope with absences from your side, and they can even help you stop your pet from chewing things they’re not supposed to.

Sure, a pet will play with just about anything but dog supplies are specifically designed for your dog and will ensure that they’re safe, non-toxic, and longer lasting than makeshift toys. Choose pet toys carefully from reputable pet supplies companies.

Training & Exercise Aid

Toys can teach your pet to fetch. Toys can be used as a reward. Dog toys are an essential pet supply for training purposes. When your pet does something favourable, just like a treat, a special toy could help show that appreciation and reinforce good behaviour.

Toys Can Help Fill Absence Gaps

Many people crate train their dog. Having special crate-only pet toys can be a great way to kill boredom. Having toys your pet, even if he or she is not kept in a crate, can play with can also help if you’re gating your dog to confine him or her to a specific area when you’re not home.

Control Your Dog’s Chewing

How can you stop a dog from chewing? You can’t, really. He or she needs to chew, especially if they’re a puppy. Some toys encourage chewing. That’s a good thing as it can help your dog satisfy his urges without ruining your house. Again, toys can be a great training aid and chew toys can be what you give your pup when he starts to chew something you don’t want him chewing --- such as furniture, shoes, or even walls.

If your dog’s chewing is unwanted, tell him, NO!” firmly. Then give him a chew toy instead and tell him “Good boy” or “Good girl” when he or she chews the toy. Your dog wants to please you and he needs to chew so this is a great way to reinforce chewing a toy rather than designer shoes!

There are some great dog toys from pet suppliers online. Some dog supplies shops will sell: balls, Frisbees, toy bones, Kongs, dog ropes, Planet Dog toys such as the Orbee Ball, an Orbee Ball with Rope, or an Orbee bone. And there are toys specifically designed for puppies, such as: teething sticks and the aforementioned toys but in smaller sizes.

Are Dog Coats Silly?

More people than ever are buying boutique style stuff for their pampered pets. Do you ever look at an apparently pampered pooch and wonder why that dog probably lives a more charmed life than you do? Do you think dog coats and other such accessories are silly?

There are a number of pet supply companies that supply items that are a necessity and items that are more for fun and frivolity as well.

Ezydog Coats are a popular choice for dog coats and Ezydog dog coats are sold online. Are you wondering if your dog needs a coat? Some people do pamper their dogs with plenty of spoiling, designer dog supplies, and accessories but some dogs do benefit from wearing dog coats.

There are hairless dogs that get cold easily. And, there are times when covering your dog with a coat, such as an Ezydog dog coat will help you avoid that seemingly unavoidable smell of wet dog. Some dog supplies stores will sell dog coats that are weatherproof, helping when you have to walk your dog in the rain as well as boots to help you when you have to walk your four-legged companion in the mud.  Wellingtons for Mum or Dad and doggy “wellies” for Rover!

Dog jackets might also be suitable for working dogs. Jackets or vests identifying that a dog is on the job can help people understand why a dog might be in a place that normally prohibits dogs but that makes exceptions for seeing-eye or other assistive dogs.

Whether you want to buy Ezydog dog coats because your dog needs help with warmth, because of a specific reason, or for no reason at all other than the fact that you think it’d be cute to have dog coats for your pooch, there are great sources that could help you outfit your dog regardless of his or her size. There are leather dog coats, fleece doggie jackets, and an array of fabrics, patterns, and colours to choose from. 

Buy Dog Coats Online

Thinking about buying a coat for your dog? Local pet stores might have a limited number of options. Searching online opens up the availability of choices for you and there are some great discounts that could include free or discounted shipping and other deals that you might not find locally in a bricks and mortar pet supplies store. Just like there are clearances in your local pet shop, you’ll find discounts and clearances in online pet supplies stores as well.

Prevent Fleas with Frontline Plus Treatments for Dogs & Cats

If you’ve never had to deal with fleas, you’re lucky! Frontline Plus is a flea treatment that could mean that you don’t ever have to deal with this problem which is more than a hassle for you and for your pet. If you’re already dealing with them, get some info below that could help you swiftly eliminate this problem.

Flea Treatments +  Cleaning


Some flea treatments kill fleas and some prevent fleas as well.  Regardless of which one you opt for, cleaning your environment is almost as important flea removal.

Flea treatments treat your pet but a big problem is often the fact that the environment they’re in is loaded with pesky fleas. It can be a vicious cyle. Flea eggs can be deep within fabrics throughout your home and they can be very difficult to get under control once you’ve got a full-blown infestation.

Pet supplies that can help include flea treatments, flea collars, flea lotions, powders for your carpets, and so on. Your vacuum cleaner is an excellent form of defense in addition to flea treatments. A great brand name well-known for efficacy is Frontline Plus.

How Do You Deal With Fleas?


  • Bathe your cat or dog. Cats don’t love the process, for the most part. But trim their nails ahead of time and get a partner to help make it as easy as possible. Fully saturating pets can ensure that most live fleas will simply drown. Start at the head (safely avoiding eyes and mouth) and work your way back. A thick ring of flea shampoo around the neck is a good idea as the fleas will try to escape to the head area. Keep pets segregated from soft furnishings and carpets while they dry and the flea shampoo works its magic.
  • Work on vacuuming the rugs, baseboards, and all upholstery. You might opt for flea spray such as Frontline Plus flea spray for the room as well. Choose carefully and be mindful of toxicity, especially if you have small children in the house.
  • Utilise flea treatments that kills fleas, flea eggs, and prevents new infestations. There are some popular options, including Frontline Plus flea treatments for dogs and cats.  Make sure you choose the treatment that suits your pet. Some products are for dogs or cats and others are for one or the other.  Choose a product for the right pet size as well as pet age.
  • Keep vacuuming!  Vacuuming daily is a good idea. The vibration of the vacuum will stir dormant flea eggs to hatch and you can, hopefully, catch them before they breed. Dormancy can be a big problem, which is why many people who move into a house that has been vacant for some time suddenly find themselves with an infestation.  Vacuum floors and baseboards as well as carpeted areas and your mattress and bedding. Be careful when emptying the vacuum and do it outside!
  • If you’re wondering if the problem is dealt with and inspection of your dog or cat alone isn’t enough to convince you, try placing lamps safely on the floor some where at night and putting a bowl of water containing dish soap underneath. At night fleas will be drawn to the light and drown. Counting fleas on a daily basis in the water bowl can help you determine if you’ve licked the problem or not.

There are great products from pet supply shops that can help you protect your home, your family, and your pet. Acting swiftly is vital as fleas breed rapidly and can be terrible to get rid of if you don’t focus daily on eliminating them until you’re sure that they’re gone. Flea treatments + vacuuming + daily inspections are the best defense.

The Pet Loo - Dog Toilet!

The Pet Loo is literally your back yard in a box!

It is roomy enough for a dog to comfortably do its business yet compact enough to fit on your balcony, in your laundry, into the corner of the room, office or on any other area.
Made from a specifically sourced material The Pet Loo is resistant to the acidity of urine and the accompanying smell which ensures a long-lasting and hygienic product.
The Pet Loo has been tested to hold up to 300kgs of weight so it will easily support those heavier pets and is suitable for pet owners who have multiple companions.
Given its shape, two or more Pet Loo's can easily be pushed together to make a "park" (indoors or out)
 

Synthetic Grass

There are many varying types of synthetic grass on the market. The Synthetic grass used for The Pet Loo is of optimum quality to reduce your hassles. After lengthy testing, we have ensured that the perforations on the base mat guarantee maximum drainage.
The grass only needs to be replaced if you feel it's necessary (click here if you would like to order more Pet Loo grass). For cleaning purposes pour warm water over the grass daily or alternatively lift it out and hose it down (in the shower if necessary) - remove the grass to allow it to dry. For times when The Pet Loo is not in use (eg: overnight) remove the grass from The Base to air it out.
Quick Tip - It's always a great idea to have some replacement Pet Loo Grass on hand to help with the cleaning proccess" While one is being cleaned, aired out  and dried... use the replacement
 

The Base

The base is slightly angled to assist gravity in the catchment of urine. It has been reinforced specifically to support the weight of an animal and is shaped to channel the urine towards the collection jug.
In order to clean the base, simply remove the grass and wipe the base down with warm water. It is important to know that the use of any cleaning agents on The Base may repel your animal and compromise the purpose of The Pet Loo.
 

Catchment Jug

The catchment jug holds approximately 1.75 litres of liquid and is situated in such a position that ensures the urine is filtered evenly. It is made of a material which is resistant to the acidity of urine and the smells which accompany it. The jug has been positioned and designed to such a shape and size so that it is easily removed and waste can be poured down the toilet with no spillage.
Convenient and simple!

Frontline Plus Flea Control

Our long, warm and humid summer has created some ideal conditions for flea survival in most parts of the country. So this autumn, we can expect fleas to flourish and continue to infestour pets.

Flea treatment is an all-year-round commitment because fleas can be active in all seasons, and autumn is no exception. Fleas can breed on any untreated animals within your home to produce eggs that develop into immature flea stages that can cause reinfestation. It doesn’t take long for a few fleas to multiply, producing hundreds, even thousands of flea life stages in the environment.

As your pet ventures outside this autumn, it may pick up fleas from the environment. So if you observe a small number of fleas on your treated pet from time to time, don’t be concerned. Frontline Plus works by killing these fleas as they come into contact with the product on the pet’s coat. Frontline Plus is recommended to control existing flea problems, as well as prevent new infestations from occurring. The two active
ingredients in Frontline Plus protect your pet and home by killing the adult fleas on your pet as well as all the flea stages in the environment, thus breaking the flea life cycle at every stage. One ingredient (fipronil) kills adult fleas and the other, (S)-methoprene, ensures eggs, larvae and pupae do not develop into adult fleas. The
two active ingredients working together provides ‘integrated flea control’.

For flea control ensure you apply the correct Frontline Plus product to each pet every month, all-year-round. Frontline Plus pipettes are specifically designed to give the correct dose of treatment to pets in particular weight ranges. The products for dogs and cats are also formulated differently so use the correct pipette for your pet. Thankfully, the protection doesn’t stop at fleas. Frontline Plus also helps protect your pet from the potentially deadly threat of paralysis ticks. If you live in a paralysis tick area, Frontline Plus should be applied to dogs every 2 weeks and Frontline Spray should be applied to cats every 3 weeks during the tick season. Remember to always read the label instructions and search pets daily for paralysis ticks.

With Australia’s leading flea and tick treatment working on your side you can prevent an infestation in your home.
