What Dog Harness is Best for a Dog Tie Out?

Image

However, when choosing the right harness that will work best with a dog tie out stake, there are several things to consider: What is your dog's play style? What type of material and buckles are there? Are there multiple dogs playing at once? In our experience the right dog harness for a tie out is very helpful, but first lets get right into it.... What is Your Dog's Play Style? Is your dog active while on the dog tie out? Or, is your dog more docile and chill? Does your dog roll and scratch it's back? It is important to ask yourself this, because it determines where you want the harness to latch to the tie out cable. Check out the Dog Harnesses We Suggest for BOTH Walking and for Tie Outs Some dog harnesses come with a hook in the front, on the chest; and others hook to the back of the harness.

A Celebration of Our Family's Loving, Honorable and Loyal Dog, Sheila!

Image
Yesterday was a day of great sorrow and celebration for our dog, Sheila.  At 16 years old, Sheila is not only, loving, loyal and there for us as a family, but also accomplished great things just by being here on earth.   Sheila has been an inspiration to our family pack; and I don't know if she ever realized what her presence did to impact other dogs and families.  She truly accomplished everything she came here to do, and so much more.  It is truly an honor to have been her friend, her family to be able to help her through to the next journey. We want to thank and appreciate a friend of ours Rebecca W. of BioTraceIT who has been a great part of the development, and a soon to be release PainTrace reading machine.  Because of this machine and her kindness to run the test for us, we were able to make a decision, and finally understand where our Shiela's pain was at... which was not good for even a human.  "I personally tested the ma...

Can Our Furry Friends Teach Us More About the Holidays?

Happy Holidays everyone! Every year, my wife and I get a big bone for She-She and a bag of tennis balls for Roo.  The dogs are so happy, I can't imagine what else we could have gotten them that could even make them happier.  But, then I realize they are just as happy on all the other days of the season just sleeping on the couch next to us, running around on the  Dog Run they inspired  and getting fed; Oh! lets not forget, the ever impending food spills from the kids they get to clean up after.  Basically, everyday is like Christmas to them because they are happy with the world they live in and the people that were chosen to care for them.  Such a simple thing, sometimes it makes you wonder why that simple happiness is so difficult to achieve for humans.  Why do we need all this stuff to make us happy when there are clear examples of what I would call "true humanity" walking around your home showing us the way to happiness on a daily basis?

Cold Weather Tips for Dogs

Image
Baby, it's cold outside!! The cold weather can get to anyone and your pet.   Lets review some great tips for taking care of your dog during the winter weather.   #1:  The cold weather can cause dry, itchy skin when your dog is constantly coming from the cold to the warm inside.  The reason for this is the change in moisture and humidity.  Be sure to wipe your dog down if he/she is wet from any snow, be sure to get those paws nice and dry.  If your dog already has some itchy and irritated skin, running a humidifier in the home can add some moisture to there sensitive skin. #2:  It is completely acceptable to pass on those baths.  Washing your dog too often, especially during the winter months will remove the oils from their skin that is needed to keep them from getting dry and irritated. #3: If you shave your dog- don't shave them all they way down to their skin.  The extra fur is needed to do what mother nature intended...
