“This interactive toy is one of Papa’s favorites! It’s a fun way to keep him entertained and mentally stimulated while I’m working from home. This puzzle features different difficultly levels and helps teach my dog problem-solving skills.”
“I purchased this backpack for my dog so that he could carry his own treats and collapsible water bowl to daycare. It’s adorable, functional, and easy to strap on and take off.“
“My dog has had this toy for over a year and still plays with it daily! As Papa is a heavy chewer with lots of energy, this durable toy has multiple sounds and chewing textures built in to keep him engaged.”
“The Easy Walk Harness was recommended to me by Papa’s trainer when he was a puppy. This harness has definitely helped reduce my r eactive dog’s pulling on walks. I love it because this harness controls his pulling without gagging or choking him like other techniques.”
“I use this healthy all-natural peanut butter for everything! Because I have a poodle that requires daily brushing, I put a little bit of peanut butter on a lick mat to keep him distracted while grooming. I also use this to make frozen treats and to hide the taste of medicine.”
