If you own a dog that likes to wander away from home, or you just want added protection against losing your pet, there's a new product that uses GPS tracking technology to ensure your dog will never get lost again.
Although there are similar products available for hunters, the Spotlight GPS Pet Locator, developed by Positioning Animals Worldwide (PAW) of Raleigh, N.C., was introduced in July and has the endorsement of the American Kennel Club Companion Animal Recovery.
The device attaches to your dog's collar and includes a tag with an ID number. It can detect when your dog leaves its secure boundary (called a SafeSpot) and alerts the owner via email, text message or both (great if you're at work or away from home). The owner then receives the dog's real-time location as well as turn-by-turn directions to find the dog. There's also a Good Samaritan "rescue button" that someone can press if they find the dog; it notifies the owner and AKC Companion Animal Recovery.
The introductory price of the Pet Locator is $199.99 from the Web site and includes a rechargeable battery, charging cable, collar attachment strap and collar tag with lifetime enrollment in the AKC CAR recovery service.
My dogs would never wander from home, but if you can't be sure about yours, this is worth checking out.
Pet Product Review - Smartykat: Chickadee Chirp Cat Toys
Can I just tell you today's favorite pet toy for both my cat and dog is the Smartykat: Chickadee Chirp Cat Toys.
You won't believe how the hunter comes out in your pet until you see them play with this toy. Everytime it hits the ground a realistic chirp begins. With that your pet will soon be tossing it up into the air just to hear it chirp. So much fun!
You can buy the Smartykat: Chickadee Chirp Cat Toys in Walmart for only $3.99. In a day or two it probably will end up under a sofa or behind a cabinet, but the price is well worth it.

Well this week my puppy Charlie and I have been traveling. As you know when you travel, things happen like you run out of your standard brand dog food. Lucky for me, I had with me a big box of toys and travel treats sent to me by the people at Wellness. In that box was a bag of Wellness Super5Mix Just for Puppy kibble.
