Product Review: Coats for the Rain!

As some of you may or may not know, I do not usually like the whole doggy dress up thing.

The Crate Pad to Beat all Crate Pads

I got to thinking after yesterdays question about the dog that no longer wants to sleep on the owner’s bed. I talk a lot about crate training and using crates as a safe, secure place where your dog to can ‘chill’ but I never say much about their comfort. Have a look at the bottom of .. [ read more ]

Halloween Costumes for Dogs!

There are two weeks left to Halloween – time to think about what your dog is going to dress up as this year! I am not always someone to dress my dog.
