Pet Products Review - Happytails Bubbles 'N Beads Shampoo & Conditioner 9oz

bubbles n beads

The pamplet that came with the product sample sent to me by Happytails Canine Spa Line says: "Inside every mutt there's a mutrosexual just dying to get out".  So I figured what better day to turn my Sheltie Champ into a "muttrosexual" than New Years Eve. With that we tried Happytails' Bubbles 'N Beads Shampoo and Conditioner.

Baths are baths, the experience is never quite fun.  Although this was the first time I've ever used a product with beads in it.  I don't know what the beads do, but it was interesting to watch them dissolve.  The pamphlet says they are "microencapsulated conditioner" which is pretty fancy.  So, the bath is not fun, but the results are.  They should have called Bubbles 'N Beads the "Fluffinator" ! OMG! after Champ dried off, he was a gigantic cute and fluffy monster.  He certainly was clean and his hair very soft.  One thing I liked was that the shampoo did not have an overwhelming perfume as so many of them do.  My one regret was that I did not have a bottle of Happytails' Shimmering Mist to give his bath that extra glimmer.

So as a shampoo I totally recommend Happytails Bubbles 'N Beads.  For ordering, go to www.happytailsspa.com.  At $17 for a 9oz bottle, this is a luxury pet spa product.  But knowing that Happytails at a company only uses the very best ingredients and upholds the higest possible environmental, social and ethical standards, and made in the USA, its worth it.

Pets Prodcuts Review - Catswell VitaKitty Chicken Brest treats

 

My cat Stinky is notoriously finicky when it comes to food, especially cat treats.  We've tried nearly every treat we run into, and always searching for more.  This week's trial was with a company I've reviewed before Catswell.  They have a unique treat that looks like small moist and meaty strips of succulent chicken Breast.  It goes by the name VitaKitty.

I couldn't wait to try this treat, because its more than a treat, its a supplemented nutritional food item that is packed with flaxseed oil, vitamins and vitamin E to help maintain eyes, skin and coat.  The concept of combining reward with healthy nutrition always appeals to me.  To boot, I know the that Catswell assures that no hormones, antibiotics, fillers or byproducts are used.

Unfortunately, Stinky did not care for this treat.  I tried over three days, and each time he rejected it.  But hey, that is only my cat.  My dog Champ, he loved them.  Try them with your cat first.  Go to www.catswell.com for information and to order.  If you don't see them in your local store, contact the website and have a sample sent to you.  At $3.99 for 2oz, you want to be somewhat frugel.

Pet Products Review - Ark Naturals Breath-Less Brushless Toothpaste

ark naturals

Dental care is so important for both your cat and your dog.  I'm always looking for great products and samples to try.  Ark Naturals sent me perhaps just what I'm looking for; a simple, clean and tasty treat that also cleans your pet's teeth and breath.  Ark Naturals Breath-Less Brushless Toothpaste is the name, straight to the point. 

The treat looks just like the theatre candy licorice; a dark round treat with a softer lighter colored center.  I do have to admit, it took a while for my dog Champ to actually warm up to the treat and eat it down.  But, once he did, he ate all there was.

Like all good, all natural dental treats, Ark Naturals Breath-Less Brushless Toothpaste  are not inexpensive.  One bag is $18.95.  Go to www.arknaturals.com for information and to order online.

Pet Products Review - Wysong Beef Stew in Gravy, 5.5 oz can

If you have multiple pets, say a cat and a dog, you're always looking to economize, especially if you're like me and mix delicious can food in with your pet's kibble.  With that a brand I saw called Wynsong caught my attention.

wysong beef stew

Beef Stew in Gravy™ contain chunks of real meat combined with diced vegetables in thick, natural gravy that both cats and dogs find highly palatable. Use in conjunction with other Wysong Diets and fresh foods.

Champ sure did enjoy the Wyson Beef Stew in Gravy for the entire week over while visiting his grandma in New Jersey. How can a pup not love canned food that has 95% real premium human grade beef?  Best of all, I felt great serving a Wynsong product.  If you go to www.wynsong.net your can learn all about the nutrition and manufacter of Wynsong products and the beyond careful attention they give to nutrition.  In fact, they say their education is their best product.

Do go to the website and learn more about Wysong's many holistic brands for both your cat and your dog.

Pet Products Review - Wagatha's Wheat & Lactose Free Breakfast Biscuits

You know what one of the best things about being a pet parent? giving your little loved ones special treats and biscuits, especially when teaching new tricks. If your training and obedience is first thing in the morning, than what better way to start the day than with Wagatha's Wheat & Lactose Free Breakfast Biscuits.

These biscuits are incredibly good.  I learned about them from Hilton Hotels.  Hilton includes Wagatha's biscuits in their fashionable doggie ammenities tote.

 

 

 

 

Only the very best organic ingredients go into all Wagatha's products.  Human Grade Certified Organic Ingredients: whole spelt flour, oat flour, barley flour, sunflower oil, dried apples, ground flax seed, rolled oats, brown rice flour, whole eggs, dried bananas, cinnamon, maple sugar, sea salt.  Yes, "Human Grade"so I the Secret Shopper did indeed test out the product.  I found them quite good, and even tasted the bananna. 

Each can contains about 32 biscuits, so at $8 per can, thats not bad for a month of super premium biscuits.  Shop online at www.Wagathas.com.
