We all love our pets, and in most cases they are considered a special part of the family. As a dog and cat owner myself I would do just about anything to ensure my pets are safe, healthy and happy. Unfortunately many dogs will suffer from some form of arthritis or joint pain. Don’t lose hope because there are several inexpensive and effective ways, including glucosamine for dogs, to alleviate and help prevent the onset of dog arthritis and joint pain.

Just what is Kennel Cough? It is an upper respiratory infection that is caused by certain bacteria and viruses. It may also be called “infectious tracheobronchitis”.

I have 5 dogs, and I have been feeding them Blue Buffalo canned dog foods along with Blue Buffalo dry foods. The food is rather expensive though, and I can no longer afford to pay so much for their food. I do not want to feed them a crappy low quality food with fillers and [...]

My dog is really picky about food and I notice when she eats cheap brand foods she starts scratching. What is the best dog food any one out there has used for a sensitive dog.

People who keep their dogs and pets in kennels, board them, or have them at veterinary offices for extended visits run the risk of their canines getting kennel cough. Because bacteria and viruses cause kennel cough, it is easily spread among animals being confined together with other animals.

I have a pit bull, and I’m not sure if its just the breed or my dog, he doesn’t get fed people food. Ive tried a few dog food brands (pedigree dry and wet food and science diet) and he farts SO much. He’s an indoor dog so the farting is an issue when I [...]

My dogs eat the Ol’ Roy dry dog food from those big bags, and it seems fine. But when this bag is all used up, is it okay to buy the same thing?
I just want to know what brands are contaminated and to avoid getting.

Can you imagine anything cuter than a puppy? Well, maybe a kitten, but I guess that all depends on whom you ask. Nothing is as satisfying as raising an animal from infancy to adulthood, and having it be a part of your family its’ whole life. Taking care of it and protecting [...]

I am pretty satisfied with commercial dog food and I have no problem sticking with it, but I would just like to know how to make nutritional homemade dog food.
