Review:

THESE ARE PADS USED ON ELDERLY PEOPLE WHO HAVE TROUBLE GOING TO THE BATHROOM. THIS COMPANY SHOULD BE HONEST AND LET THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CONSIDERING BUYING THEM KNOW THAT THEY ARE NOT PUPPY TRAINING PADS. PUPPY TRAINING PADS HAVE A SPECIAL SCENT ON THEM TO ENCOURAGE THE DOG TO USE IT. DON'T BE FOOLED!!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!


Review:

My wife loves these sheets for our cat, and I like that the product is rather inexpensive and shipping is pretty fast. My only complaint would be that shipping cost more than the product, but all in all, a very good buy.


Review:

This product was billed as the same product used by hospitals for incontinent patients. That may be true of the pads that measure 24 by 24, but not these 17 by 24 sized pads. They are too small for my 4 pound Yorkie. Maybe they would fit an incontinent baby. The shipping was outrageous. I spent $26.00 for 600 poor quality pads and $50.00 for shipping. Never again will I buy from this company.


Review:

I bought this product not for puppies, but for my guinea pigs. I put them over their "chair" and "bed". The pad area was smaller than the 17x24 because that measurement is for the whole pad including the edges. I should have realized that. I just use 2 instead. The problem I found is that the pad really doesn't absorb all that much. I guess a small puppy might be able to use it more than once. But, my piggies can only get about one use per pad. They are cheap enough though. It makes their cages easier to clean with pads. Shipping is expensive, but that can be expected. I think next time I will buy the next size bigger.


Review:

These pads are terrible! they are so thin we doubled them up and they still leaked through. i have an 8 pound puppy. what made it even worse is that throughout the box for every 40 pads there is one good (normal)thick one. It was such a dissapointment. i will NEVER buy or reccommend them to anyone.

Q&A

How to train an older do to use pee pads?



Beth's Question:
She cant wait as long as she used to and goes on the floor. How can I train my older dog to use pee pads in the house so she goes there instead of my floor?


Amanda R's Answer

Thing with the potty pads is that is has an attractant to make dogs go there, but as they go, they see the room they're going in. I know a couple with a smaller dog who they cannot break of going poop in their bathroom, because he learned that when he was in that room he could go. The attractant makes the need to go more aware for the dogs (like we suddenly need to pee really bad when we stand next to a water fall or fountain). So, if you put it in the kitchen, she'll use the pad then wind up traveling from the pad. They have doggie doors, if it's a possibility, so she could have the choice herself to come and go as she needs. You could try a doggie litter box, where she only goes potty in a litter substrate. Or, put up some baby gates to limit where she has access to, so the potty is easier to find and clean up. Or, get her a right sized crate to sleep in while you're gone: she will not potty on herself and she will spend most of the time sleeping anyway so she's not going to mind being confined. If you do leave her out, leave her without water for the day, and make sure she has ample time to go potty before you leave, so she is empty. When you are home, she can have her fill of water, so you aren't depriving her. If you haven't already, you should also get her checked up at a vet, because she may have just a UTI or something that can be diagnosed and treated and she'll be back to normal.

Q&A

How do you train a yorkie to go potty outside when she was trained to use pee pads by her previous owner?



sunnygirl's Question:
our little yorkie is 4 years old, we adopted her yesterday but very much want her to learn to use the potty outside instead of the pee pads she was trained to us. so please any helpful advice and if you've been through this before i would love to hear from you. thank you


Stephanie C's Answer

Gradually move the pad closer and closer to the door. Just move it a few inches each day. If she has an accident or misses the pad move it back and start again. Once she is successfully going on the pad in fron of the door take it just outside the door and begin taking her outside to use it. Eventually remove the pad. It make take a few weeks or months but she will eventually get it. Or if you want to keep her indoor trained I recommend a product called the WizDog. We use one for our two little Chihuahua/Poodle mixes and it works great. Just put the pad on the plastic tray and cover it with the grate. Keep the dogs paws from the pee and the poo can be picked up easily and flushed. The plastic trays can be cleaned with pet safe spray and paper towels or hot water in a utility sink. Just a thought...Indoor training small dogs makes it easier should you not be able to make it home on time one night. Good Luck!

Q&A

How do i train a puppy to pee on pads when she is scared of it?



petitmenu's Question:
We have a 5month old lab x rotti and she won't go to the to pee pads at all. She would rather play outside for hours at a time and then come inside to pee or poop. I need a crate but as I am in Northern Alberta, they aren't easy to come by. Crating is my perfered choice. She goes out frequently but no luck. I have tried the spray for paper training but no luck. She will poope or pee 3 inches away from the pad!!! Any suggestions?


sweet_angel32117's Answer

Have you tried ebay for a dog crate?? That would be your best bet! When she pees in the house, DO NOT, give her any type of affection. Let her know who's boss! And that this is your house! Not hers! She's claiming her territory, which is why she's peeing in the house. The best thing to do would be to rub her nose in the pee, and to not let her go outside and play for hours until she gets this out of her system. I would also suggest walking her 45 mins a day, she won't be as hyper, and they do get bored even though you have a big yard! The walking will also help calm her barking, if she does bark. When we moved, my dog kept peeing in my new apartment, and she's housebroken. We had to train her all over again that it's not o.k. to pee in the house. all I did was rub her nose in the pee, and I didn't give her affection after she peed. She got the hint eventually, and now she's starting to let me know when she needs to go out! Also, try having another dog over for a day that's housebroken, and let her see that dog peeing and pooping in the grass. They actually do learn from other dogs! O.k., I hope this helps. Good luck, I know this is very frustrating! :o)

Reviews of Bench & Field Holistic Natural Feline Formula, Cat Food, 3-Pound Bags (Pack of 3)


Review:

Our kitty loves this food! The best way to describe her now is that she is acting like a typical two-year old. Never a dull moment around her. She tears through the house as if a bulldog is chasing her, (when she isn't napping, of course). Her coat is silky, shiny & soft and she is a healthy, happy cat. We are so glad we found the food on Amazon.com. The first bag we had purchased over 60 miles away and could not find it locally. Thanks Amazon!


Review:

My cat has "problems" with TONS of other cat foods - this is the only kind that agrees with him!


Review:

We don't use this as a regular diet, but rather for "cat treats", because our cats absolutely love it. We don't believe it is as healthy and beneficial as implied after reading the ingredient list, but it is still ahead of most commercial dry foods. However, the price here is not too good; we buy the 3 lb bags from Trader Joe's for 6.49 each, which of course would be about nineteen & a half bucks for three.

Q&A

My 5 year old tabby cat frequently throws up his cat food a few hours after he eats it.?



Linda's Question:
He LOVES, LOVES, LOVES to eat! I give him 2 large cans of super market brand cat food a day. One in the AM and one at dinner time. He likes to play with his toys and has lots of energy, but this has me concerned. Can someone give me a professional opinion? Thanks!


kittyslave23's Answer

I have one that regularly throws up after eating, although he usually doesn't wait a few HOURS to do so. He does it because he eats TOO much TOO quickly. I allow my cat to "free-feed" and he just simply over does his eating. Try cutting back the amount of food he eats at a given time. Not the TOTAL amount of food, but allow him to eat, say, half the can full and remove the dish. Then, hours later, put down the food again and allow him to eat. This way he won't have too much in his stomach and the likelihood of his throwing up will hopefully be diminished. Me... kittyslave23... I know my place.

running out of cat food and this cat is super hungry.what should I DO?



Francheska B's Question:
My best friend has this kitten and she dosent really take good care it =| and i feel very bad the cat is very hungry she ran out of cat food.what can we give this cat to eat that will be good for the cat i dont want to give him tuna!!??


Spike & Co.'s Answer

Give the kitty tuna. How would you like to be hungry? Now it's time to figure out when you and your friend are going to get food for this kitten. If you don't have a way to the store or the money, then contact an adult. If no one is willing to get food for the kitten today, then I think Animal Control should be called. This is neglect. Sorry to be harsh, but if the kitten is not receiving the care and food it needs and deserves it should be placed in another home. good luck to the kitty!

Is felidae a really good cat food?



Lyn-z's Question:
I know felidae is a higher quality than say, meow mix or purina. But is it really as good as they say? i bought my 7 year-old female devon rex a bag of felidae chicken and rice formula. Is it super high quality cat food? i dont wanna spend loads of money on like Wellness because its so expensive and you dont get as much food. I am also gonna feed her Chicken Soup for the Cat Lovers Soul wet food everyday. Is this a good diet for her? i want her to be her healthiest! =] thnx xoxoxoxo


Kat's Answer

Felidae isn't the worst of the dry foods, however, cats were never meant to eat dry food, also known as cereals or kibble. We, humans, make them eat it for convenience to us. It has nothing to do with them or their nutritional needs. It's completely species inappropriate. All small domestic cats descended from desert cats. In the wild, desert cats derive their entire liquid intake from their prey. They do not have a thirst mechanism because they don't need it when eating a species appropriate diet. They get all they need from what they eat. Additionally water was usually not available to them in their desert climate. So they do not often drink water. Regular ol' house cats have descended from those same wild desert cats. So in a home environment, your kitty does not get the moisture it needs from dry food and itâ??s almost always in a constant state of dehydration. Water fountains are encouraged to TRY to get your cat to drink more and your kitty may even enjoy it, but it will never meet its water intake needs drinking from a bowl. Deadly feline illnesses such as diabetes, kidney failure, obesity, allergies, Irritable Bowel Disease (IBD), bladder stones, kidney stones, urinary tract blockages and Urinary Tract Infections (FLUTD), with and without deadly crystals run rampant these days. Cats are not taking in enough water to stave them off. Proper water intake through a species appropriate diet alone can prevent most of these conditions. Overall, wet is all around better for any cats diet, be it canned or Raw and they should never be fed dry cereal kibble if we wish to most closely match their wild nutritional and dietary needs. Kibble meets our needsâ?¦ not our cats. I recommend varying the diet with a constant rotation of accepted canned foods that your cat enjoys. If you do this, and allow your cat the same assortment they would have in nature when eating mice, bugs, birds and rabbits, your catsâ?? digestive system won't be so sensitive and you won't have to run around looking for a specific brand when your store is out. You will have a nice variety to choose from instead. Canned foods I recommend for your rotation: Nature's Variety - http://www.naturesvariety.com/content.lasso?r=0829192&page=1172&-session=naturesvariety:D04EC9250c614143FDKiM2BA9520 Wellness Grain Free Formulaâ??s - http://www.wellnesspetfood.com/cat_wellness_can_index.html By Nature Organics - http://www.bynaturepetfoods.com/productpages/catmain.php Organix - http://www.castorpolluxpet.com/store/organix/organix_organic_canned_formulas_for_cats Evanger's Holistic Pheasant - http://www.evangersdogfood.com/cat/20089.html Evanger's Organic Braised Chicken - http://www.evangersdogfood.com/cat/50103.html Evanger's Turkey & Butternut Squash - http://www.evangersdogfood.com/cat/50111.html

  • Fixed Lead
  • Nickel-plated clip, rust-proof and tarnish-free

Reviews of Rogz Reflective Dog Lead


Review:

Wanted a lead for our strong muscular 13 week rhodhesian ridgeback male pup who may grow to be over 100 lbs. Excellent quality and durable material. Also ordered the matching collar and harness. The reflective markings are an added bonus for night time walks. Probably better than what you get in pet stores. Made in South Africa. Should last us several years if not forever!


Review:

This is a nice sturdy leash, and reflects the light as it should, except the reflective stitching is only on one face of the leash. I'd give it 5 stars if it was reflective on both sides. If the side without stitching is the side facing the cars, it won't serve it's purpose of letting drivers know to keep an eye out for my dog...


Review:

This 3/4 inch wide "Roqz Reflective Dog Lead" is a superior $10.00 replacement to a $20 reflective leash of another brand that was stolen at a dog park.

All materials seem to be top quality. It is more than strong enough for my very energetic and powerful 65 lb. dog who usually walks very good but occasionally lunges. The material is soft and comfortable and easily stuffs into my pocket. The 6' length and the end loop are the perfect size. Finally, the snap swivel seems heavy duty and works smoothly.

To me, this leash would be at the very top of a five star rating, nearly perfect.




Review:

This is a super leash Fair priced light weight and the reflector helps us keep safe on walks in the winter especially when it is dark so early


Review:

This is an OK leash for smaller dogs, my rat terrier is larger than most, and was a little more thin that I wanted, and the latch to hook it to the collar is a little rattled.

If I was you I would try and figure out what sort of license you may need but I'm pretty sure you will be fine without one. Make a website at weebly.com about you and your service. Everything is totally free there and its easy. Thennn I would start with flyers. posting them up at laundry mats and such like that. Then I would look into printing out ads and putting them in the "paper" portion of mailboxes ( I would hit the RICH) neighborhoods). But check laws on just putting random stuff in that portion of the mailbox. Then I would read books on good technique. Here's a good site that tells top selling books and such http://www.dog-training-database.com After that the business will flock in. OH YEah and have a descent rate.. todays times are touch

How do you start dog walking?



cosmic_girl832001's Question:
I'm 18, full-time uni and part-time retail worker. I was considering doing some dog walking for fitness reasons and while I don't own a dog, I have helped my friends walk their dogs in the past. I was wondering if anyone can give me some tips on getting started?


Brasky's Answer

I would consider going and getting a part time job at a shelter or vet's office. Maybe even volunteer work. I mean no offense but I don't let anyone walk my dog besides me. There are far too many things that could go wrong. I don't even let my sister take him. I trust her, but what would she do if there were a loose dog and Brasky got attacked? What if he escaped from her? Sure he's a breeze for me to handle...but I have a LOT of experience with German Shepherds and large breed dogs, I know how to deter them or keep them from going out of control. There's also the fact that he is capable of biting someone. True I don't believe he ever would with his level of socialization and training, but I NEVER put it out of the picture because he is CAPABLE. All dogs are capable of biting and it's not something I would want to deal with...especially if he was with someone else walking at the time.

Reviews of Bamboo Quick Control Large Collar, 18-22"


Review:

I was very disappointed in this product. It was great for about three weeks and then the silver bones popped off. The next day, the handle snapped off one side. I have tried to reach the company that makes this product but they have never gotten back to me


Review:

I first purchased the Bamboo Harness for walking the dogs and fell in love with the bamboo product. They are top quality and comfortable for the dogs. I decided to get the Control Collar when we are not doing our three mile walk. I can assure you that this is a great product for if the quick control can hold back a Police Dog they most be good.


Review:

I just received this item today. At first glance, it looks attractive enough. Upon closer inspection, it is a poorly made item. The manufacturers should have put more thought in quality rather than adding two decorative silver bones which adds no function to this item. The stitching is unraveling at the "leash area." The "tag" stitching also has unraveled. If I were the cynical type, I would say that the supplier knew of the unraveled stitching and tried to glue it back together but it didn't hold. Also the hidden tag is paper under a plastic sleeve. I would never trust my beloved dog to only have this as a tag. It is not waterproof nor is it secure in it's sleeve; The tag is useless. The "D" is too bulky, and as others have mention, the extra collar end just hangs there, making the collar look unfinished and shabby. The built-in leash is a great idea, but this item falls short in quality. The leash is made of some stretching rubber (kind of like a car fan belt but not as strong). I predict that this leash will break if used too often, so I am not going to rely on it in public. I'll just use it in the house. I normally would return a product like this but it probably would cost me more in time and money to ship it back, which is probably what the supplier counts on. Buyers, read the reviews carefully, cause the reviews I read were right on. I'll use it for six months, which it what I give it before it's none usable. For now I will keep looking for a similar product but with better workmanship. Fail.


Review:

I like the collar a lot it is very sturdy and of good quality. when I use the built in leash the collar slips off the dogs head. that might be because he is still a puppy and need to grow more though.


Review:

We have a medium sized black lab (60 lbs) and this collar doesn't work in a practical way for us. I'm only 5'5" tall, so that isn't the issue. It will be worse for anyone taller. I bet it would work for a taller dog, though. The "leash" only extends a couple inches, so I really have to bend over in order to "walk" my dog with it. It also really pulls on my dog's neck so she does that coughing/choking thing. I tried making it looser to give me another inch, but then it just slips off her neck.

Could I use a cat collar for a small dog?



Halos' War's Question:
I can't find a collar that's not blue,black,purple, or red at Pet-smart. But there are cat collars that seem similar to the small dog collars. But in different colors of course! =) But is there something wrong that could happen if I use it for my dog? I use a harness for walking, and will only use the collar for indoors and the ID tag.


Greg0rz's Answer

Sure, it's not going to hurt your dog. Cat collars and dog collars are basically the same thing with different brand names, because they're fitted for different sized animals. As long as it's not tight on your dog, and it doesn't bother him/her, should be perfectly fine =]!

It really seems to calm him down.


Review:

We bought the DAP to try to calm my chihuahua who has mild separation anxiety (some barking, not destructive) and problems with strangers.

Review:

I have used the plug in when I first got my puppy and she was a little too hyper for our older dog and it worked wonders. However now I have moved and am really struggling to get her used to the cat here. I am thinking the collar could work better for her now being as it wll always be on her, but it states no where if it has full regular use as a collar, meaning hookups for her leash and tags, or if she still needs to use her other collar for that. Can someone who has used this please let me know? I just can't tell in the images. [...] Thanks!


Review:

How can I train my dog to stop aggressively barking at the trucks going by?



socuteitzcrzy247's Question:
Whenever a truck goes by on the major road behind my backyard, my dog goes crazy! He starts barking and barking and if you try to stop him he tries to bite you. We put out box and now whenever he starts barking he rips a piece off of the box. I would really appreciate if anyone had any tips on how to stop my dog from barking aggressively. Thanks for listening!


JoliCart's Answer

My dogs like to bark at the air so I know what you are feeling. They are not aggressive though. I can't help you with that part, but as far as the barking, we bought this thing that looks like a birdhouse. It sends of this sound that only dogs can hear when they bark. Eventually, the dog stops barking because they don't like the sound. We got it at Wal-Mart for $50 and it works really well.

How can I stop my yorkshire terrior from barking and crying for everything?



cutieAnnalouise's Question:
I have a yorkshire terrier and she is very play full, I play with her every time she brings me a toy but the problem is she cries for everything and she spends the whole day barking and when people come over all she does is bark and cry to get their attention and then when they stroke her she wees herself and carries on crying and barking. Another problem is when I take her out on walks. She also barks at everyone and everything she sees. How can I stop this. Its very embarrasing and fustrating when she does this.


Tamas M's Answer

Consider what's making your dog bark. Does he need yard access? Is a cat taunting him through the window? Does he just like the sound of his bark? Step2 Check your pet's basic needs: hunger, thirst or elimination. Your pup might be trying to tell you something. Step3 Remove your dog's motivation for barking. For example, make a dog door for easy outdoor access or close the shades. Step4 Invest in a citronella no-bark collar, which is effective and not cruel; if your dog barks, the collar sprays a small amount of citronella, which dogs dislike. Step5 Use positive reinforcement to train your dog to bark on command; this will help him learn how to be quieted on command as well. Step6 Say "Good" at the exact instant your pet exhibits good behavior, followed by a reward and plenty of praise. Step7 Consult a board-certified veterinary behaviorist or a pet behaviorist for additional suggestions if all else fails. hope it helps! Happy Holidays!

My dog barks like mad when he sees something move, but i dont want to stop him from barking- just something that will not let him bark when i use it, but he will bark nevertheless without it. Does a bark collar do that? Or anything else that isn't that cruel? I understand Brittany, but that stops him from barking forever, because he will be afriad that the collar wil yank him when he barks, even if it isn't on.


tifftiff005's Answer

the shock collars are cruel i think. i had a friend buy one and put it on his wrist to check it out and he said it was like the equivalent of a stun gun or worse. needless to say he didnt put it on his dogs. but the one person did have a very good idea. the pronged collars. they dont actually hurt the dog. it just kind of startles them. that would be my best answer to you
