With the cold weather here, and the snow approaching here are some tips on keeping your best friend safe:

• Do not leave antifreeze, coolant or windshield wiper fluid within reach. And do not let pets drink from puddles. These products taste appealing to pets but most are lethal to animals when ingested. So thoroughly clean up any spills from your vehicle. Also, keep your pets on leash outdoors and steer them far away from any suspect puddles.
• Always wash your dog’s paws after a winter walk to remove salt. 
• Anti freeze that leaks onto driveways and roads smells and tastes good to dogs. However, it is highly poisonous and can be lethal to your canine companion if ingested.
• Your dog’s ears, feet and tail are highly susceptible to frostbite. Limit his time outdoors, if possible

Musher’s Secret is a great product that protects your pets feet from both the heat and the ice and all the products we use for ice melt.

As many of you have read, I have been doing a lot of traveling to and from NYC for business. So I just got back from NY, it’s nice to be home!

I almost always travel with a dog.  My dogs are very comfortable in the car, being we are always going to dog shows, or fun rides to train for water work or do draft work or training for SAR(Search & Rescue).  One of the problems people have is the ablility to keep water available to their dogs while in motion. The buddy bowl is a great spill proof bowl.  The unique design of this bowl keeps the water inside even if it’s tipped over! Keeps the bugs out. Reduces evaporation and contamination. Made of non-toxic polyethylene. Dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning.
