The fist night I had this bed my dog gave up on it and slept on the floor. The bed made a lot of noise when he moved, and the bulge in the middle of the bed made it hard for him to sleep on it. However, after I put one of his favorite blankets in there that helped with the sound issue, and now he likes to sleep on it.

I have older pet doors by PetSafe and the flaps used to be more clear/transparent.I checked with the company web-site and the flaps I received in my recent order are the correct model number (as seen on the box)...so it seems PetSafe is manufacturing them a bit darker than they used to (as other reviews mention).I have noticed my cats will sit at the flap and peer through it before going out...so that is why I wanted them to be more transparent...but after some use the flaps darken anyway so it's not a huge issue.The price I paid (15.99) for these is lower than I found elsewhere too.

We've had this dog house for my yellow lab for almost 4 years. Very sturdy. It's been in the sun the whole time, but hasn't had any sun rot. The color has modified slightly, but that's all. Other than the slight color change it still looks brand new. She's mostly an outdoor dog, so this house is well used by her. During the winter she stays in it most of the time. There are times when our dog is inside our home but she'll ask to go outside so she can go in her house. We live in cold, snowy mountains--lots of skiing, so we're used to cold weather. Like the other reviewer, we use cedar chips inside--nice. I like the ideas the reviewer gave about modifying the house with foam. I think we might try that this winter to make it even more cozy. The door was frightening to our dog at first, but she got used to it and now she likes it. I like the window that can be removed in the summer. We might put carpet over those during the winter.

I love the litter box & the litter! This litter refill is just perfect for our home and locks in those smelly cat scents! She is a very stinky kitty and at 1st I was very unsure about getting a new box that was open but my vet wanted an open box due to some health reasons (we had to watch how she went to the bathroom and afterward (what was left in the box) carefully and this box worked great for us. We loved it so much that even after the vet told us we could go back to our normal box we decided that we would just keep on using it. In her old box you could still smell her when she was done but even though this is open she doesn't leave any smell, clean up is easier, the refills are really affordable when I compare them to what I was buying before (and I can even buy them in bulk- which I love), and she doesn't track her litter all over the place! In her last box she tended to stand at the entrance and shake her paws everywhere sending litter all over our floors but with this scoop free box she is able to get in and out wherever she likes and steps all over the litter mats we have underneath. She doesn't even shake her paws anymore just rub them on the mat.Putting these refills in couldn't be any easier too- just open the box, dump the blue crystals into the tray and slide them in! Your done! Once a day I slide the machine through to clean out the box to make it nice and fresh for her, which she loves. I know others can be grossed out by the fact that things stay in the box for weeks but what my hubby has come up with and what we all seem to love is this

This bed arrived quickly and in excellent condition. As soon as I got it out of the box and on the floor my 15 yr. old dog Jack immediately took to it. He has abandoned his old bed along with his favorite chair (that he used for watching TV). Would definitely recommend for anyone who has an older dog with arthritic conditions.

So, we needed a non lethal toy for our 3yo Australian Cattle Dog to chew, chase, and have stuffed with food. 1000% perfect for the job. It is clear that they will not last forever, but other toys didn't last the day. Yes, they smell like rubber. Stuff them with food once or twice and make the association and voila. Get a size bigger! Cost $7.11, by far the cheapest we could find.

Purchased this for a cat that needs to stop licking himself for medical reasons. I was suspicious since the ingredients are water, baking soda, and rosemary (my cats actually like the smell of rosemary), but I wanted to try something natural.I applied the spray to the cat's fur and he promptly licked himself, paused, and then continued licking himself. I, however, got some of the liquid on my hand and later in the night touched my lips. Regretted that inadvertent action for the remainder of the night due to the lingering taste on my lips and tongue.The cat has continued to lick himself in the area of application and actually spends even more time grooming himself now.I am returning the product for "bitter apple", which is more effective.

First, processing and shipping were incredibly fast....I received the case in 1 day even though I paid for 2 day. This has happened twice.My cat had an initial bout of diabetes/pancreatitis followed by Inflammatory Bowel Disease that vets believe is part of a complex syndrome.And this is the most palatable cat food I could find...and I tried dozens including all the prescription types that the vets sell.It has been a nightmare to find food that the cat could keep down with all the drugs he has to take.And best of all, he really likes it, he has to be syringe fed yet, and he lines up by the plate as I pack the syringe, meows until I give it to him...he even opens his mouth for the syringe with this food...a first.As I said, I would give this product 6 stars if I could...5 for the quality of the product and 1 for the fast shipping.

This oil has helped my dog tremendously. He was scratching constantly and within just a few days of consuming the salmon oil, his scratching decreased. Now after a few weeks he doesn't scratch anymore! I'm thrilled and I know that he feels much better!

As others have mentioned before, this spray works great as a freshener but only so-so as a leave-in conditioning or grooming agent. I like the green apple scent--reminiscent of a Jolly Rancher candy and less cloying than many commonly found sprays at the store--and found it has a staying power of between 1 and 3 days, depending on how much time my Shiba pup has spent playing outside.

The pet food industry can be one of the most infuriating as you start doing research and discovering what trash manufacturers (and the vets who get paid off by the manufacturers) push onto the unsuspecting public. For reference, don't ask your vet - do some Internet research at sites like, for example, petfoodratings.net. What you'll find is that even the supposed "high-end" lines from basically every major supermarket label are horrible for your fuzzy friends. People who trust the marketing or trust their vets overpay and feed their cats foods that are full of carcinogens, cheap ingredients that are inappropriate for a cat's digestive system, and byproducts that provide nothing of value and are basically a way to make cheap profit off of literal garbage. It's a tragedy, as these same cats end up with shorter lifespans, kidney problems, UTIs, cancer, and a host of other issues, all of which could have been avoided by a high quality food.This is an A-Grade food. What you'll find here is very high protein content, many meat meals, good carbs and oils, and no grains, which is great as a cat is not an omnivore, it's a carnivore, and it simply does not need grains. It has 50 percent protein, which is among the highest you'll see in cat food. The first 4 ingredients are all meats.What you will NOT find here is the kind of junk you'll see in things like Purina One and Science Diet - byproducts (aka beaks, feathers, bird feet), brewers rice (aka the waste product from making beer), wheat flour (a leading cause of pet allergies), corn gluten (a cheap waste of space), and things like "liver flavor" (because they don't want to pay for the real thing). I didn't just pull those ingredients out of the air - I was reading the ingredients list of Purina One. It's pathetic.Don't feed your cats trash. Pay a little more to feed them good food now, and they'll lead longer, healthier, more satisfied lives as a result. It's worth it.

I have a 7 month Old English Sheep Dog that is very aggressive with her toys. Within 2 hours of having this toy she had chewed big chunks out of the rings. She loves tug a war and this toy is great for that, but not very durable for chewing. If your dog loves to play and doesn't chew then this is a great toy, if not, stay away.

This product was cracked in half probably before it was even shipped to me because it doesn't even fit in the product box. The amazon box was not smashed in, so I don't see how it would even be possible for it to be broken in shipping because it's some tough plastic! I feel like I got ripped off, just sending me broken things and knowing shipping back would be to expensive for what it's worth.As for the product itself it's not as good looking as the picture, or as bright, the colors are different and seems to be hand painted by someone who is in a rush or not getting paid enough for what they do.

I purchased 2 of these collars quite a while ago. My 2 small dogs have both learned how to use them. I would describe one dog as a social climber and the other as exceptionally challenged in the intelligence department. It took the second dog some time to understand how to respond to the collar but he finally got it. These have been a lifesaver for my dogs since I live by a busy street/freeway and we have nasty animals such as coyotes which sometimes run on our property. I have been able to let my dogs off-leash without fear they will run off. Most of the time, I am able to use the tone only. Petsafe has been exceptional to deal with. I did have problems in the beginning and they replaced the collars with no problem even though I think the issues were my fault. One of the collars seems to be wearing out after 2 years of near daily use. I haven't talked to Petsafe about that one yet but they've been so great, I have no worries even if I have to buy a new one. We now have a new puppy and I am hoping to be able to train him to the big dog trainer so that he can also be off-leash. I wouldn't use this on an aggressive dog.

I purchased the Furminator on a recommendation from a friend who said it worked great on her cats. I used it on my Australian Shepherd and couldn't believe how much excess hair came out. My dog sheds, or I should say molts, every spring and her long fringed areas get very matted. The Furminator got out enough hair to make a new dog! I recommend using it outside and don't wear anything that the excess fur will stick to. It took an hour to completely brush my dog the first time, but we now have very little shedded hair floating around my house. Great product!

I bought this dog bed for my Boston pup who was never really content with those flat dog bed with the rolled edge for crates and kennels. She loves her bedding extra cushy so the depth and comfort foam is perfect. This bed fits perfectly in her medium sized dog crate. Fleas or no fleas, the cedar layer just smells nice. I love that the cover is easy to clean and can be flipped for warmer weather.

I was surprised and disappointed that when I reordered "Paraket Gourmet Diet" food, I was instead sent a lesser, non-gourmet version "Parakeet Diet" described in the other one-star review. This is known as "bait-and-switch" and it is dishonest.

This product works great! I have a dog that barks at everything once he goes outside. After following the directions his barking stopped after about 3 days (each day he barked less and less until finally blessed silence)! He did cry when he got zapped but I think it was more out of fear than pain. I tried the collar on my hand and it's just a good static shock, no pain, just startles you.About a week later he tried his barking again and I put the collar on again. When he started barking I yelled no and he got a zap...poor guy is probably wondering how I did that! And that was it; he's been very good since that last attempt.

I've been searching for an X-Large bed for so long! Most of the "X-Large" beds that are being sold are just too small. I have a 165 lb. German Shepard and before this bed the poor guy had to pick which part of his body he would put on the bed. He ended up using most of them as pillows for his head. He fits on this bed with room to stretch out and has a bit to spare. Wonderful!! But if your dog is not an "X-Large" you might want to go a size smaller. My dog can easily rest his head on the kitchen counters, you do not have to bend over to pet him, and occasionally grabs the couch by an armrest to drag around the living room for fun.

This litterbox is certainly of good size and the steps work as promised in reducing the amount of litter tracked out of the box. However! If you have a cat that likes to back his tushie to the wall and pee standing up this igloo will not work! Unless you're willing to duct tape the top to the bottom your kitty's pee will leak out the side and conveniently pool underneath. If the sides of this box were higher it would have been perfect but as it this beaut is bound for the local shelter.

1. NO input Strainer, No output flow deflector, NO output hose adapter.2. QUESTIONABLE reverse flow design!!! If you are using the reverse flow functionality, well, it does, but in a different way... I took apart the powerhead and investigate the design of the green control(adjustable flow control), then found out that it does not function as I thought -- The reverse flow had a THIRD INTAKE! The output for the normal flow is almost completely blocked for the reverse flow setting, and a DIFFERENT intake (sealed for the forward setting) opens up for the REVERSE flow setting!!! There is nothing on the internet that states this, and I can only find out by taking apart the powerhead and looking into the design! For reverse underground filter, it is better to do the Penguin-reverse-flow-way... I should have bought the Penguin reversible powerhead in the beginning.3. The spec didn't even state the size of input and output... I had to spend time to figure out what are the sizes for the connectors that fits.Pros:1. As a powerhead, it is quiet with good flow2. It does not give out as much heat as Odessea and Powersweep powerheads.3. The output flow is strong and the venturi air intake works well.I bought this for my DIY project.Because of items listed in all the cons, it ended up that I did not use it as the powerhead to drive my DIY reverse flow underground filter.In my opinion, it is just a powerhead with unusable reverse flow setting. It does not worth the extra $$$ for its functionality... There are tons of powerheads and submersible pumps with comparable flow rating that are quiet and also has low power consumption. Some even has lots of fittings & attachments that come with the box. It just does not worth the extra $$$.

The sizing on these is so off i want the president of this company to have his/her dog pee on his bed. We purchased the extra large for our 70 pound sick dog. According to them we should have been able to go with large First they are way too small and if they were even close in size they are not adjustable. This is not a vanity item. As for the absorbancy.. who could tell. The sizing should be more accurate so one could make a proper decision. Clearly if i could find the right size of this brand. I would not.

I got the lupine collar and leash for my new aussie pup. While the collar and leash was quite pretty, it was not a very usable for us as the collar was too hard and the leash clasp pushed in which made my thumb get in the way when trying to put the leash on the puppy. I tried getting a thinner collar, but the puppy still didn't like it and kept on scratching at it. I finally wound up getting at PetSmart a Top Paw buckle collar and leash with a clasp that pulled down which allowed easier attachment to collar. The collar was much softer and my puppy has taken to it easily.

This substrate is some of the best you can buy if you want to achieve excellent growth with your aquatic plants. Remember, its a clay product so it can break down however.I would highly suggest rinsing this product VERY well before placing it in the aquarium. It came very, very dirty. Took about 15 mins to rinse each bag well enough.Amazon as always, shipped quickly and it came in good shape.Pros

This is an easy-put-on-covering for our 7 pound chihuahua, it keeps her very warm-this I can tell since she doesn't rush to come inside once she's done her business. The price was great for the quality of this coat. The only suggestion I have is to make the Velcro longer so that the adjustment can be tighter. I've already recommended this product to other dog owners I know.

I got this from my parents when we got our 2 kittens. The cats love drinking from it, they like playing with the stream, and they even bathe themselves in it sometimes (one of our kittens likes putting his head under the stream). They drink a lot of water, and the fountain is good for us because we're not at home all the time to refill their water. The water also seems cleaner from moving around all the time.My biggest complaint about this fountain is that it is VERY annoying to clean. The small crevices and deep top make it very hard for someone with even average size hands to clean without cutting my hand up. The edges are sharp and hold a lot of gunk. It's really hard to get into most of the small spaces with a q-tip, and even brushes.Other than that, I think this is a great pet fountain.

As soon as I poured this stuff in the litterbox, my nose was assaulted by a very strong perfumey odor. There was nothing on the outside of the package to indicate that this was scented litter. I called the company and was told that all their cat litter is scented with a "cucumber-melon" fragrance.My nasal pasages felt like they were burning, so I ran right out and bought another brand. This was the first time I tried Tidy-Cat and it will definitely be the last. If it smelled that strong to me, imagine how the cat must have felt! However, just to be fair I will also say that I am somewhat sensitive to perfumed products.

My four cats (12yrs-6mo) love the multiple levels and being able to bat at their friends when they are below. My husband used the instructions in the review by JRinGeorgia which made assembly much easier (wish the company provided better instructions). The two balls in "cages" will not stay in place between the chasing and extra tall cats. Overall I would recommend this cat center and would purchase again.

This is VERY easy to collapse and setup with only two bars. I bought it for my portuguese water dog the first week of July. It goes on road trips with us all the time. During the day I keep it in the corner of my living room and my pup relaxes in it when he wants to rest. He's in it when I'm asleep and at class and he has no complaints; he won't even step near his old wire crate after the luxury of this one.If your dog has ripped this item up it is not the item's fault, your dog just isn't crate trained.So long as your dog is crate trained this item is perfect and worth every penny. I'm buying a second one for my new 4 year old dachshund.I suggest a wire frame for dogs that will rip through their crates.

We've been using the large Pet Home for our large dog (~65lb shepherd mix) for a few years now. It's very durable and our dog loves it. He is not a chewer, but he did spend one stressed-out 4th of July clawing at the front mesh door for hours, and it held up fine. It's a good size for our dog - he can stand up and turn around easily. If he sprawls out when sleeping then he does bump up against the ends, because he's a long dog, but he doesn't seem cramped. It only takes about a minute for one person to set up, and is light enough for one person to carry easily. Folds down to less than 2" thick. We use it as a bed for our dog when we travel.

My indoor kitten loves this thing. He carries it around in his mouth after he's caught it, like prey and will play with it until he's ready to drop. When I see him with his tongue out, I know it's time to put the toy away. Like the other reviewers of this product, I agree that you must keep this toy out of sight when not using it. I purchased the refills and am glad I did. This is going to be one of those toys that never gets old. It's a great product. I highly recommend it for any cat that needs some exercise.

I have to admit, I'm not really sure what some of these reviews mean. I have a 16 year old cat. I have bought these treats on and off over several years of her life, and she loves them. I feel good about the ingredients (primarily dried fish) and the tooth benefit (though I am neither a vet nor a dentist). The only reason I have not bought these for other years has had to do with my proximity to a PetSmart, where I used to buy them. Tonight, I came to Amazon to order some for her upcoming birthday, and I read what I think may be misleading reviews. To help people with their purchases, let me add a little bit here.First, a description. These look, feel and sound a lot like pieces of strofoam packing peanuts, only about 3/4 the size. They are wide in circumference, maybe a half inch or a bit more. They are difficult to get into a mouth of a cat, ie. the reviewer's Persian, true. The way they work is to have the cat work the fishy styrofoam through the teeth several times in order to scrape off plaque and tartar. Although my old girl is only 6 lbs, I also have had a 20 lb calico and an 11 lb Persian. All three cats did well with these treats. They seemed to chew them for a while, and the squeaking sound on their teeth as they ate made me feel like they did their job.Second, cost. These are definitely more expensive than several kinds of cat treats. I would not give them as treats, frankly, but more as a tooth brushing.Third, I cannot verify if they are effective or not empirically. I know that the vet is routinely surprised by my 16-yr. old cat's teeth. 1. She still has them all. 2. They look great with very little tartar. I don't brush her teeth. Maybe it's the treats, the 14 years of dry food, or genetics. Either way, I'll order these for her Bday, and I'll feel good about the purchase.

Best stuff on the market that I've tried (and I've used a lot of different cleaners like UrineBGone, ammonia, vinegar, etc.) I have a cat who marks and he has been so frustrating to deal with. I took him to a vet who recommended Anti Icky Poo for cleanup. At least with Anti Icky Poo, I have a chance of getting the smell out when my cat has one of his episodes, so my stress is lowered somewhat. I have used it safely on my bamboo floors, too, which was a big concern. So far, no discoloration seen on my sofa, rug and other areas I've tried it. I bought the smaller spray bottle and then a gallon to refill it.

I usually pic up the solid colored balls, but last time these were the only ones in stock. Dog loves them just as much. These yellow ones also seem stiffer than the same balls that are solid(purple, orange) ones. If you throw them, and they lnd on vinyl floors they will leave the pain on the vinyl, so beware, Otherwise my lab just loves it!

My 13 year old cat was suffering from constant joint pain in her front legs/shoulders as well as severe pain from degenerative discs in her lower spine near the base of her tail. She was starting to lose the use of her legs at times due to the pain in the lower back. I had used Medacam oral suspension and Adequin shots to help but it was looking like we might have to put her down. The vet recommended Cosequin 2 months ago and the results have been amazing. I was skeptical but willing to try anything. Although I read that it normally takes 6-8 weeks for improvement, my cat was doing better after about 1-2 weeks. At the one month point, she was acting like a 2 year old cat; she now jumps up on the sofa and runs around playing with toys; something she had not done in a long time. Cosequin has literally saved her life.I was told by the vet to sprinkle half a capsule in her food twice daily. I found that the dosage was too much; it made her act like she was sick to her stomach. I reduced the dosage and now I sprinkle a large pinch of the powder in each meal, feeding her more often but smaller portions. That works and she seems to tolerate it well now. If your cat does not want to eat it, try putting just a small sprinkle in wet food; it seems that even getting a small amount into my cat's system has helped a lot.For those cats who will not eat it, I would recommend using a syrenge and getting it down somehow. The results are too good not to try it.For the record, I do not work for the Cosequin company or sell the product; I am a regular consumer who has found it to be a miracle for my cat and do not want anyone else to miss out on the benefit. Good luck.

After my chocolate lab stuck his nose in the kitty box, my kitty decided to not to use her box. I got this box in the hopes that she would give it try. She has indeed been using the box, the problem is the box is not so great. The latches on the side of the box do not seal tight enough resulting in litter spilling out when you turn the box. The box itself takes up a lot of space, but you have to plan for more to allow for the rolling of the box. I really wanted to love this product, it could be fantastic - its just not built well.

My cat is profoundly weird as it is possibly the only cat who doesn't go nuts over a laser pointer, so toys for him are a little hard to come by. But this toy is practically a worship object for him. He ADORES this thing. He goes crazy when I bring it out, and he has started to find all my hiding spots, so he drags it out all on his own to play with it. I make sure I pin it down with something heavy if I leave the room. This is a supervised toy.You'd think a stick with a string wouldn't be that fascinating, but when I slide it tantalizingly across the ground in agonizing slow motion, he literally can't stand it. Must. Attack. Now. He pounces so hard he invented carpet sliding. His record is about a foot.This is a great little toy, because it is made from soft (super soft) felt, so you don't have to feel bad if you whack your cat (or an innocent bystander). It's sort of like a whip, so this is bound to happen. Actually, my cat prefers to get hit in the face with it. It just slides over his head between his ears, and he flips over on his back in a frantic lunge. Must Bite. Must Chew. Must Annihilate! It's seriously adorable to watch. The plastic stick on the end is really light weight, so your arm doesn't get tired until about the hour mark. Extended playtime.Concerns about tangling and knotting can be cast aside. My cat enjoys getting tangled up in it and just laying down with it around him, but the felt slides. Just a little tug and the network of string he's created around his paws comes undone without any knotting. Again, though, this is a supervised toy. I would not recommend leaving your cat alone with it. It is hard to get tangled permanently because of the slipping felt (a great, great feature), but there is the chance (however remote) it can wrap around the cat's neck. So if you let him play with it by himself just keep a close eye.The only problem I have found is my cat has all of his claws, so occasionally he snags one of them in the fabric. The problem fixes itself, though, because of the sturdiness of the felt. It is a tight, sturdy material, so there's no fraying to make the snag permanent. When snagging does happen, my cat has figured out he's just digging in too hard, so he lets go. Nothing actually gets stuck stuck, just caught for a split second.Not only is the felt sturdy, but so is the stick it's attached to. The string is attached with a rubber cover piece, and my cat has yanked on it for all he's worth. The thing hasn't budged. This toy is going to last for a long time.All in all, it is amazing and totally worth the price. A must buy for any cat owner. You will get hours of entertainment.

I have 2 of these shelves and love them! I have 5 cats and they are safe and secure on these because they are fastened to the window sill. My cats are big cats andalways knocked other shelves from the windows.

We have relied on the Out! King Size Training Pads for many years now. We keep one down all of the time for our small adult dog. She gladly goes to the pad if the weather is bad outside or if she can't wake us in the middle of the night. We like these for their large size. We can no longer find them in the stores by us and are so glad we can get them through Amazon. Thank you!

This is by far my spunky cat's favorite toy. She entertains herself with it all the time, whether she pretends she's hunting it or sleeping on it. Fortunately she doesn't have the knack for getting the ball out so she never gets bored and the ball never gets lost.

The Nylabone is simply the best frisbee for the real superfly frisbee dog. Want the short game? Go somewhere else. Want the best flying, longest-distance yet safe frisbee for your dog, go Nylabone all the way. Plastic frisbees make my dog's gums and tongue bleed. Fabric frisbees are a novelty for backyard playing. The Nylabone is the real deal. Your dog will thank you. I've got at least 10 of these (2 in each car, etc.), and me and Daisy have logged over 100,000 throws and fetches with Nylabone.

I have a 46 pound Staffordshire bull terrier and this is her favorite toy ever (She gets the Large kong). She doesn't like squeaky toys or stuffed animals, she's food driven. Before work everyday, I put a smear of peanut butter in one of her kongs to keep her entertained when I'm gone. When I know I'll be gone extra long, I'll freeze it (although this does make the kong crack over time) or put a circle cookie in a 2nd kong for her (takes her a day to get out). I highly recommend this product, as long as your dog isn't a destructive dog. If they are, I recommend the black ones.

I bought this hoping my cats would like it. Summers are very hot here, and when the house is in the 80's-90's, they lay around looking like road-kill (so do the people, but that's a subject for another product review!). But the cats wouldn't use it. Not at all. If I put them on it, they immediately jumped down. If I put it in a pathway to try to make them walk on it so they'd get used to the feel of the fabric under their feet, they would crawl UNDER it or jump over it rather than walk across it. This summer I lent it to a friend whose house is always in the 90's in the summer and whose 9 cats normally will climb all over anything new, and even her cats wouldn't use it. The fabric is very rough and scratchy, and I'm guessing that it's painful to the pads of their paws (just a guess--anyone out there who channels cats may be able to find out for sure!). Otherwise, the product is sturdy and appears well-made. Definitely hard to assemble and the reviews that give tips for assembly were very helpful--thank you! In terms of size, I really wasn't sure what size to get. It turns out the small size was plenty big even for my friend's extremely large cat--lots of room to spare. Bottom line, it's a gamble--if your pet(s) will use it, it's a great product! But if they won't, you've wasted a not-insignificant chunk of money. So only 3 stars because, though well-made, it's potentially a waste of money and there's no way to know unless you try it. Tip

These are terrific dog treats. They won't stain carpeting and much healthier than lots of empty calorie options. The packaging is easy to use and keeps them fresh. My labradore retriever loves them and we have just purchased more (in a larger quantity) now that we know how much she gobbles them up. You won't be disappointed if you give them a try!!!

I have been looking for a backpack type carrier that would fit my 15 inch long (from back of neck to tail) 10 pound Dachshund mix. My purpose was to use it when I go hiking if he gets tired. This was not a good choice. He was too long which made him hunch over in the carrier no matter how tight I made it. His back legs didn't fit well in the leg holes because they were too short. He also didn't look too comfortable in it. Looking at it with him in it I would imagine it probably was stressful for his back.So even though the product's length is 15 inches, I would estimate that for a dog to fit well in it they should be around 11-13 inches long. If you have a Dachshund that is 15 inches from head to tail or longer, do not get this.I did try the carrier on my mother's Chihuahua mix and she fit perfectly. She didn't seem to like it though.This carrier looks way more ridiculous once you put it on. So I'm opting to buy the Doggone Device Backpack Carrier. My hopes are up that it will be long enough for my dachshund.

My cats had zero problem with me moving the litter box into the bathroom, and switching their litter to a flushable kitty litter (I use Feline Pine). However, they have not taken to step one of the CitiKitty system. One problem is that my toilets are not standard and have very wide sides. I had to cut off the sides of the CitiKitty tray to get it to sit in the toilet. I've taped it on to the toilet now, which makes it much more difficult to remove and clean. However, my cats still won't use it. They have taken to peeing on a rug and/or going outside. I'm thinking about getting a deeper aluminum bowl and trying that instead. I don't know if it's the flimsiness (from having to cut off the sides of the tray) or the lack of depth that makes it difficult to bury their stuff. I've been stuck at this stage for a month now and have not gotten my two cats to use the tray consistently. There have been one or two instances but that's all.

My cats don't like these, but maybe yours will? It's hard to say. I think it depends very much on your cat.The toys are as described and came in a colorful mix. They bounce around and your cat can chase them if so inclined.I thought for sure mine would enjoy playing with them because they like to bat things like bottle caps, straws and other little things when they can get a hold of them.As the other reviewers said, the toys do have a tendency to end up under the couch. But for mine, it didn't really matter. They played with these toys for a few minutes, but then that was it.If your cat does like them, I'd say they are a great value for the money.

We just got a 7 week old mini doxie puppy and bought this crate both as a housebreaking tool and a "bedroom". The fact that it has a divider screen makes it perfect for both. You can make the crate smaller for a young puppy to discourage eliminating in the cage and yet you don't need to buy a new crate when he is full grown. You just take the divider out. It is a very sturdy pen for the money, yet portable because it folds flat. I know I sound like an ad but I am just saying that all the things the company says about it are true.

Easy to clean, folds up instead of the elaborate puzzle of pieces and posts that others have; and excellent price with fast service. Love the plastic pan instead of the rusting metal kinds.

I've bought this product 2 different times. My dog loves the beds and prefers them to any others, but after 2-6months they have both started leaking. Usually it's a slow leak near one of the seams, but since there is so much water in the bed it can really cause some damage if not caught quickly. Usually they start leaking after the return warranty has worn out. Definitely be gentle if you use this product and keep a watchful eye for leaks!

We have used this product in the past. When we ran out I went to many pet stores trying to find it. I could not find it anywhere. So I bought a different brand from PetsMart. Our Freckles did not like the taste or smell as compared to Synergy Pet Calm she loves it. Needless to say the stuff I bought did not work for her and we had a very long night trying to keep her calm due to the thunder storms we were having.

I got this carrier for less than the Aran 2 version, and I'm actually glad I got the bigger one as it gives my full-grown cat plenty of space. I could probably put two cats in it, in fact.This carrier is quite sturdy and I like the edge-locking system. The top door is a little hard to open, though. It kind of sticks a little; not enough for me to dock a star, though -- I assume it'll loosen up over time.

If you have a dog that chews, Lupine leads are a must. Three days after receiving my order from Amazon, my 1-year-old English Setter mix chewed straight through this lead. After realizing what she had done, I sent the chewed lead to Lupine and received a new lead free of charge within three days. She's on her second lead now and is doing much better with the nervous-chewing issue but I can rest assured that if she does chew through this one, Lupine will replace it quickly, free of charge, and with no questions asked.This is one of the best leads I have ever owned (and I've owned quite a few), hands down. The handle is comfortable- the padding makes it easy for me to hold it with no burns or bruises from plastic or nylon handles which is a first. It is easy to slip onto a harness, even in cold weather and the lead itself seems to be made from quality materials. I also love the print, even if it is a little girly.Bottom line, buy this lead, especially if you have a dog who likes to chew.

My dog was prescribed this for anemia, yet Amazon sells the same brand/product for a quarter the price, no prescription required (thank you Amazon!). High iron has been linked to heart problems in humans, and so it's important to have blood work done on your pet regularly before starting this product imho, and while maintaining use of the product, as this is not a regular daily vitamin but one high in iron.

We bought this toy for my Siberian Husky last Christmas and I never could have imagined how much she would love it. Out of her large variety of toys (that continues to expand), she ALWAYS grabs this one. Most importantly, Hide A Squirrel is very durable. The tree trunk has lost a leaf or two over the last 6 months which is not a big deal, but as rough as she is with her toys, the squirrels have held up surprisingly well.

This gizmo is HUGE! If it weren't so much trouble I'd send it back. Looks like a great product for a St. Bernard, but for my 13-pound Shih Tzu it's overkill. There may be a smaller version, but I can only imagine what the hard plastic would sound like on my tile floors!

I was very skeptical that my cat would actually use this bubbler since he is an outdoor cat and not normally amused by cat toys, etc. He is extremely cautious which has been demonstrated by living to 15 years old in a coyote neighborhood. After a day or too, however, he did consent to use the bubbler, but only on the lowest bubble setting. If he will use it, I expect most cats would. The bubbler was simple to set up and to is easy to clean and refill. So all is good.

This toy is much too small to be safe for a dog, any size of dog. It is easily destroyed by a small dog and the very small pieces could be swallowed causing a very dangerous situation for your pet. Try the AKC brand of dog toys, they are well-made and much less risly for your beloved pet.

Nice bed, well made, soft and comfortable poly fill. Too small for my Westie and my Cairn Terrier. Would be OK for a cat or SMALL dog. The 25 inches is not the inside, it is the outside. If your animal is longer than about 20 inches they won't be able to stretch out.

I've been giving this supplement to our chocolate Lab for well over a year now. Pricey, but well worth it when I saw how much it helped his hips! He was getting stiff and having trouble getting up. After much research, I decided to give this product a try, and after a few weeks I couldn't believe what a huge improvement it made for him. He doesn't get up as slow as he did, and he walks and runs almost like he's 5 years old instead of almost 10!

I hate to say it, but I've tried about everything on my two small dogs. I've hired Terminix to spray my front and back yards, I use Capstar 24 hour pills as a supplement, I've tried not only Frontline, but two or three others of the same type. None of them work. I live in Southeast Texas, and we do have some fierce tropical weather down here, in the Summer, but I just can't seem to have any luck with Frontline. In the Summertime, I spend, on average, around $300 per month on flea killers. I keep trying, but just can't seem to get any results. Maybe I should just try to drive little tiny stakes through their hearts. I can't get anything else to work!

I got this for rainy winter day walks and camping trips. My little guy doesn't really grow a winter coat, so this keeps him warm and dry. The material also seems to work as a good windbreaker. He may not like wearing it, but he doesn't whine and shiver when we go outside on winter days anymore.

I'll never buy another dog collar again. I have one in lime green for one dog and in lavender for the other. They're not only beautiful collars, but they're sturdy, easy adjustable, and you can just feel the quality in the collars. Also, they're SO EASY TO CLEAN. If you put them in the washer with a normal wash, they come out looking brand new and are not warped at all. I hang them over the door handle and they're dry fairly quickly (made out of thick nylon). They also don't bother my dogs' necks. Usually, my dogs were scratching away at their necks with other collars, my pit bull always trying to get hers off. But they find these really comfortable. They're never scratching or pawing at their necks.

I purchased the Petmate Deluxe Fountain for my 2 year old cat who wasn't drinking much water. Knowing that cat's need plenty of water for good kidney health, I thought this would encourage her to drink more. I received the fountain and quickly put it together with ease. Before I could even finish filling it with water, she jumped up on the counter to investigate. Within minutes, she was licking the flowing water! So happy I purchased this and my cat has increased her fluid intake significantly. The fountain does get a little noisy when the water level is low but is a good reminder to add water to the reservoir. Cleaning the fountain is easy. I certainly recommend this product to any cat owner. It truly encourages the cat to enjoy water more!!

I think my dog would love the ball. Unfortunately, when it arrived, it was clearly not what I had hoped for. The seam, where the two halves of the ball come together, had multiple leaks...some so large I could see inside! How could this get past quality control? Overall the ball is solid because of the thickness of the material, but I cannot put water/sand in it at all because it immediately leaks out through the holes. Very, very displeased.

We bought this new Petmate Fresh Flow to replace an existing unit that had served us well for several years but which was becoming difficult to clean. Unfortunately the pump on the new product for some reason no longer has adjustable flow although the flow control lever is still there but intentionally frozen in the maximum position. This results in a very noisy product with water overflowing the internal filter reservoir continually. We installed the pump for our old unit and all is well but this new product appears to have a significant flaw.

I used this bag to pick up a 12lb 8 week old Giant Schnauzer puppy. This bag is larger than the one the Airlines recommend but I thought the next size down would be tight, I am very pleased I used this one. The medium would not have fit my puppy. On a 737 it fit with no problem, but then had to get on a commuter, luckily, I was able to push down on the back side and opened the top a little to give her more room. We made it fine and was very happy to have such a quality bag.
