winter

It is not a rocket science considering the fact, that during the winter we should care about our doggy more. Our Pet is exposed to additional risks connected with cold. ** Dog’s pads We have to remember that dog’s pads are the main point of contact with the freezed surface and salt being...

I'm looking for a very warm, preferably wool, winter coat for a small male dog. He is about 10-15lbs, we think maybe a chihuahua, terrier, dachshund mix or something like that. I would like a coat with a design similar to these because the coats with a belly type strap tend to touch is little...

So winter is approaching, and I'm starting to worry that Zoey might actually need a coat. She's a 2 year old Staffy, possible cross. She's NEVER acted cold out on a walk; no trembling, shivering, stopping etc. She's scared of the rain heh, but has never been bothered by the cold. My major...

So I got Cobber back when I thought I knew something about dogs and puppies, but now know that I really didn't actually know anything :) My personal situation is that I live on my own, am 54, have a bum foot (broke it a couple years ago and it didn't heal right), and all of that is why I...

With most of us dealing with cold weather, snow, and ice, I find it hard to find ways to exercise Snickers and get her the physical and mental stimulation she needs. I was wondering what others do during the cold winter months when walks are not possible. All of the sidewalks are covered with...
