Dog Food Health Risks
I have struggled with my dog for the past 13 years regarding her diet. She has a very sensitive digestive system and is always having issues if she eats the wrong thing. She was never happy with dry food, only wet food, so I fed her Purina and Alpo and any other food that was supposed to be good... until she stopped eating it. She was seven, and she had blood in her stool and would not eat, so off we went to the vet. She was diagnosed with colitis, and I was told she was allergic to grain. I began making her food at home, using hamburger well-drained, carrots, and brown rice. She did well on the food, but she was gaining a lot of weight.

How to Store Your Dog or Cat Food Properly
When dog food is made, it may have oil added to it from animal fat, sometimes even sprayed onto it to add to the flavor and aroma so that dogs find it more palatable. This oil can potentially become rancid from exposure to high temps and it will also become out of date and stale from air exposure. Here are some ideas to help your dog food last longer and taste better to your dog.

Why I Made the Switch to Fresh Cat Food and Why I’ll Never Go Back. Top Story - November 2018. Created with: Smalls.
It was 3 AM. I had been dreaming a nice little dream, then I rolled over and promptly woke up. Once again, my cat Molly decided it was time to throw up her dinner on my pillow and I had the unpleasant surprise of waking up with spit-up on my cheek. It was the third time this month.

Frozen Dog Treat Recipes That Will Cool Your Dog Off This Summer
Summer is both bitter and sweet. We're melting from the heat, but we get to enjoy sweet, frozen treats to cool us down! I'm a sucker for ice cream and even though I eat it all year round, I binge eat the frozen treat in the summer literally every day. Yes, it cools me down, but it's the delicious flavors that I mainly enjoy.

An Honest Review...
Recently, my family and I got ourselves a new, four-legged addition to the family. Our "Beast" (which is what we named him) is now 130-pounds of ruff, and he's only 1.5 years old. So you can imagine how much money we had "budgeted" into their food cost (like... $20). Working in the veterinary field has opened my eyes to what veterinary professionals consider good quality food versus "you don't know what you're really getting" food. I can talk about this subject for four more posts, but I promised (in the subtitle) to keep this relatively short(er).

Peanut Butter Doggo Treats
My dog, a sweet little ten-pound terrier, was nearly out of treats (GASP!). I do not currently have a car, so grocery visits are limited to a need basis when it comes to forking out for a Lyft. I debated ordering via Amazon Prime, but I often read recipes online for dogs, and decided to try my hand. Worse case scenario, they suck and I order them anyway, right?

10 Dog Food Delivery Services You Must Try
There are so many ways to feed your dog, from getting store bought food to even making him homemade organic meals. Since our dogs deserve so much love, they certainly deserve great-tasting meals to enjoy, too. However, since many of us work during the weekdays and don't have much time preparing homemade meals, we have to offer our dogs regular store-bought cheap, dry dog food that they're sometimes not fond of. But did you know that there are dog food delivery services out there that can provide you with fresh meals for your dog?

4 Healthy Treats for Your Furry Friend!
For all of those who have furry friends, we all know our dogs absolutely love treats. Unfortunately our four legged babies don't know when enough is enough. They are bottomless pits once it comes to treats. They are bottomless pits once it comes to anything really. With them being bottomless pits, they also tend to gain weight.
