GoughNut Stick Green

GoughNut Stick GreenIf your dog is chewing through everything then this is the toy for you. (There is also a black one which is a bit stronger, but I found this one was more than strong enough for my dog.) This toy holds up to heavy duty chewing. I have a Mountain Cur that wants to tear apart toyssoft toys last for maybe a half hour if we are lucky (amazingly she never has tried to tear apart a Kongshe seems to know if she destroys it then it won't be a game to get the treats out anymore) so we were looking for something for her to play with/chew on as she seems to want to just sit down and chew on something sometimes. This toy works perfectly. I liked this shape better than the ring or ball option as it looked more like a stick and would be easier for her to hold and chew. After about 3 months there is NO DAMAGE at all to the toy. NONE. Not even one tooth mark. I am stunned. And my dog loved it right from the first time she say it (in fact she was jumping up trying to help me open the envelope it came in she was so excited to get to it).

There are only a couple things that are a teeny bit annoying about this toy. The first is that is smellssort of like fake baconor some of those stinky dog treats. And if you touch ityour hand will smell like that. After three months the smell does seem to be a bit less, but is still def. there and noticeable if you are touching or next to the toy. The second thing that is a little annoying is how hard and heavy this toy is. So if your dog likes to pick up toys and throw them around be careful you are not in the path (or anything breakable) as it will hurt if it hits you.

Overall though I would highly recommend this toyand I think so would my dog!

This toy has held up to punishment and serious chewing from my teenage Lab who can eat his way thru just about any "indestructible" toy. It's heavy and the rubber gives which he finds satisfying. Expensive ... but have a feeling this will last a few years, so you get what you pay for. Also my husband discovered it doubles as a great foot massager!

My dog will eat, chew, and destroy anything. Regardless of how tough, the Kongs last 10 minutes, the Tuff toys are good for an hour. This toy is tough to destroy, but she doesn't like it. And, it's not because it can't be destroyed. She'll chew a rubber ball, a bone, a dish, or even a piece of plastic. For some reason, this is low on the hit list. Go figure...

My bulldog is a serious chewer. She's had this for about 3 months now and plays with it 5-6 times per week. It is showing no signs of wear, even with her powerful jaws.

This is vey very durable play stick. My dog is a stick freak. She chews on sticks every chance she gets. Why do you think her name is Twiggy? :). Anyway, this toy is the only one that she doesn't chew up in a day or two. I guess because it is so tough it isn't her favorite toy though...but she will play with it if I interact with her. It is very tough.

Multivet Spray Collar Scentless Refill Box of 6

Multivet Spray Collar Scentless Refill Box of 6These worked great as refills for our multivet spray collar. There were no compatibility problems whatsoever, and each can is good for at least as many refills as advertised. I'm not 100% sure if they're good for 200 to 300 refills but that sounds about right based on our experience we definitely didn't have a problem with a can running out after only a few refills.

Feline Restraint Bag, 10-15 lbs, Royal

Feline Restraint Bag, 10-15 lbs, RoyalPurchased the restraint bag, in the 10-15 pounds size, not even close. My cat weights 10 pounds. Half my cat might fit!!! Can not use it. Donated it to my vet.

This product is a godsend. With 9 kidkats it has eased tension when it comes time to medicate. Highly recommend

Buy Feline Restraint Bag, 10-15 lbs, Royal Now

I recently purchased the "large" cat sack, with rear zipper access, directly from Four Flags Over Aspen. The service rep I spoke with stated the large size accommodates cats from 10-15 lbs. Their web site states size large is for cats 8-13 lbs. -Our cat's normal weight is between 10-11 lbs; he has a medium to large frame. It was quite a struggle getting him into the sack the first time, and the process stressed him out. Once he was securely inside, we were able to administer his medication. I suggest putting a bit of catnip into the sack, and perhaps "sizing up", based on your cat's weight and frame.

One cat happily got in with no fuss, the other splayed his legs to all four compass points as far as they would go, bit, scratched, and ran off to hide in his tom cave. To sum up, if you have the kind of cat you have trouble giving medicine to, you have the kind of cat who won't get in this bag.

This bag makes giving the cat his medicine so much easier. The only hard part is to catch him first.

Simple Solution ECO Care Puppy Training Pads 200 pk (4x50pk)

Simple Solution ECO Care Puppy Training Pads 200 pkI try to be very environmentally conscious so these pads really appealed to me. It was a great quantity at a relatively good price. There is only one little problem ... they are very absorbent but there is always moisture under the pad. I don't know if that is standard ... I use the pads at night and change them each morning so they are not used more than once ... I put newspapers under the pads to absorb the moisture

These pads work great for my dog. Really like that these are eco-friendly too reducing landfill waste. I purchase in bundle to save money and not worry about running out.

Puppy Bumper - Keep Your Dog on the Safe Side of the Fence - Navy Dot - up to 10"

Puppy Bumper - Keep Your Dog on the Safe Side of the Fence - Navy Dot - up to 10'it really keeps my Schnoodle from running thru my new iron fence....i need to buy a few more! definitely buy a separate collar to keep on the bumper so you dont have to weave in and out every time your put on bumper

We built our wrought iron fence and were excited to finally let the dogs run around the backyard until we realized one of them could slip through it. Someone recommended Puppy Bumpers so I looked them up and ordered one from amazon. It worked for a few minutes, until our dog (a Lhaso Apso so not a tiny dog and not the most intelligent dog either) figured out he could turn his head and get the puppy bumper through. It's a standard iron fence he can't get through every picket but it doesn't take long for him to find a way. This may work better on balconies where the pickets would be closer together.

Buy Puppy Bumper - Keep Your Dog on the Safe Side of the Fence - Navy Dot - up to 10" Now

The collar helps us contain our dog in our gated property; otherwise she would be out on the street in minutes! Great idea and thanks!

I bought the Puppy Bumper to keep my dog from going through the fence when he visits my parents' house. It works well and my dog doesn't seem to mind wearing it since it's lightweight. I bought a separate collar to leave on the Puppy Bumper at all times so I don't always have to take his regular collar off and thread the Bumper through it. I wish there were more colors to choose from. Other than that, it's a great invention and great way to keep your dogs safe!

Viatek BC16G Super Bark Stop

Viatek BC16G Super Bark StopPEACE AT LAST!!!!! We have only had this for 4 days, but we are very happy. I ordered this because of RUDE neighbors who leave there 2 dogs(who bark and bark and.... they don't stop) out 24/7 is a dog run outside our bedroom window. Other neigbors have complained as well, they still won't do anything. After setting up the bark stop it didn't take long before they got the idea, they get 1 or 2 barks out then nothing :) I called the other complaining neighbor and asked if she heard the dogs "trying to bark" I told her that we bought super bark stop and hid it, she thought that was great.( now maybe we can enjoy a nice fall day with the windows open or working in the yard)

update 10/18 okay the real test came last night and again this morning.What was the test?? SIRENS!!! I just had to laugh, they couldn't bark and howl!!! All I heard was this muffled grumbling coming from them. I am so glad we bought this!!!!!

I bought this device in the hope of eliminating or significantly reducing the noise emanating from my neighbor's mutt. The offending dog is often left on the neighbor's porch, where it harasses just about every living thing that passes by.

Before ordering, I had read varying accounts of its range in terms of how close the unit must be to the dog in order to attain the desired effect. In my case, the neighbor's porch is about 35 to 60 feet aware from mine. Unfortunately, this was not "too close for comfort" as far as the dog was concerned.

Having read a number of very mixed reviews of this and similar devices, I was not overly optimistic about the prospect of it actually working. Alas, it did not. Some dogs just don't hear them. In my case, it was probably due at least in part to the distance.

My suggestion is to go ahead and pick up one of these devices if and only if you are within 20' of the target. If it doesn't work, go ahead and return it to the manufacturer for a refund (which is exactly what I did). By the way, you don't need an RA (AKA RMA) number to return the device. Just send it to the company along with your receipt, and a note saying that you would like a refund (not an exchange).

(...) I sympathize with anyone having this problem, and wish you all the best of luck. No one deserves to have their peace and quiet disturbed without good reason, and the argument that "dogs bark" simply does not hold any water.

Buy Viatek BC16G Super Bark Stop Now

I bought this bark stop because my neighbor has a pit bull that stays out 24/7 barking, and the shared fence is about 15 feet from my bedroom window. The dog barks so loud, there is no where in my house that I can retreat to for silence. I bought this super bark stop in hopes of quieting the dog. The dog is so stupid that it barks even more when the noise starts up. So we turned the volume up so that the neighors hear it too. That's what did it. As soon as the dog started barking and the alarm sounded, the dog was brought in. That was until the neighbor broke it with a broom stick so we are buying another one. Too bad for them.

Like many people, I have ignorant neighbors that allow their yappy mutt to bark on and on and on. Despite talking to the neighbor politely and such, they still have no concern for the noise pollution. I was losing sleep, and the barking was getting so bad that I even considered moving!

In desperation, we looked online for something to stop barking dogs. We came across Viatek's Super Bark Stop and decided to risk the money.

WOW, talk about being worth the money! My husband affixed the device on a piece of wood, and staked it about 5 feet high in our back yard. It's unsightly, yes, but we're the only ones to really see it. More importantly, it's RIGHT IN LINE WITH THE BARKING MUTT. The first time he tested it, he told me the dog about jumped out of its skin! We laughed gleefully. Could a good night's sleep actually be on the horizon...?

It's been several days and Super Bark Stop has worked AMAZINGLY. The dog will no lie as far as it can away from the device...when it usually lay in the middle of the neighbor's yard. If it starts to yelp a little, it stops almost immediately. It's as if it's afraid to bark. YAY!

You can select the volume, tone, and number of barks to help eliminate false activation (say, from talking or loud bird squawking). Audible and inaudible both work fine, but we now keep it on inaudible at the two bark setting.

The device is waterproof plastic and you need 4 D batteries (not included) to operate it.

I am SO thankful we found Super Bark Stop! My nerves were really getting jangled and I was dreading early mornings, when they put the mutt outside. It's amazing at how inconsiderate neighbors are; just because you may want a dog doesn't mean I want saddled with its noise while you neglect it!

P.S. After using Bark Stop for 2 weeks (yes, it did work!), we noticed that the neighbors dog started to bark a bit more. (Not as bad as before, though.) We had it on silent, and realized that it had stopped working. Apparently, it's not 100% waterproof, despite the claims of the manufacturer. The person I bought it from said that "once it's opened, we find that it's not 100% waterproof". Well guess what? You gotta open it to put the batteries in it! Either buy a faux bird house to protect Bark Stop or house it where it won't get wet. Otherwise, you may find yourself in the same position we were in. We got a refund, and fortunately for us, our neighbors got rid of their dog...so we didn't bother getting a new one.

DOGTEK Canicom 400 Remote Trainer

DOGTEK Canicom 400 Remote TrainerThe Canicom 400 works as stated. I have 3 Chihuahuas and must train 2 of them. 1 of them has big time behavioral problems and she is beginning to come around with the aide of the collar. It's a tad bit large for the 10 lb dog, but still works ok. I've been using it for the past 2 wks and it has helped train the pet. Best $180 I've ever spent on my pets. The older one is next. Great product.

Kolbu SuviaTM Electronic Dog Training Mat, 48 x 20 inches

Kolbu SuviaTM Electronic Dog Training Mat, 48 x 20 inchesThe wires are almost 2 inches apart.. that wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to touch more than one wire at a time to activate the mat.. my cat and dog don't even have to try to jump over this, they can just walk right over it because the width between the wires makes it nearly impossible for them to touch more than one wire at a time... I wish it had said something in the description about having to touch 2 or more wires, the pictures show a gap between the wires but I figured it was ok since touching one would be likely.. touching 2 though... the paw would have to be huge, and then if that was the case you have a big pet who can walk over the whole mat all together..

I tested the shock, it's mild enough to not cause any pain but startling and just a tad uncomfortable, I think it would work to deter pets from sleeping on a couch or something. But it didn't work for keeping pets out of a room or off the counter tops for me..

Also, it takes 3 AA batteries, not a 9volt as advertized. I've only had it a day so I can't attest to the length of time those 3 AA batteries would last.

Dog Training Collar - Remote Controlled, Rechargeable Training Shock Collar By Canine Coach

Dog Training Collar - Remote Controlled, Rechargeable Training Shock Collar By Canine CoachMy husband wanted a dog training collar and had been comparing prices when I came across these. It seems to be of the same quality as the one we purchased years ago for about $100 more.

A person purchased this collar. It will not work at all for her. She called Amazon and she was given our number at The Canine Coach!, LLC, registered in MN, to call.

We are a dog training school in the Twin Cities of MN, and do not sell any products. The logo on the box of this product is somewhat similar, with "canine" written smaller and above "Coach", but it has nothing to do with our company.

Buyer beware.

Squishy Face Studio Bundle - 3 items: Flirt Pole with Braided Fleece Toss Lure, Extra Fleece Toss, &

Squishy Face Studio Bundle - 3 items: Flirt Pole with Braided Fleece Toss Lure, Extra Fleece Toss, & Braided Fleece Tug Dog ToyI have a new active puppy. I use this product every day to play and get the initial energy under control. After an active session I can actual have my morning coffee while we snuggle.

She also nips and the braided toy is great to tug and play.

I couldn't be more pleased with this product. It is also very durable so older dogs would have a ball!

This toy was recommended to me by a dog trainer/educator. Both my dogs love it and it's a great way to interact with your pet. I would highly recommend this for countless hours of playtime for your dog.

Our 3 year old german shepherd does not get enough exercise for his age because of our busy schedules. He received this toy for Christmas and he loves it. Not only does he get exercise and attention but it also shows us just how smart he is as he figures out ways to out manuver or retain control of the flying toy.

Dean and Tyler Simply Braided Short Pull Tab Leash, Black 8-Inch by 3/4-Inch Width With Solid Brass

Dean and Tyler Simply Braided Short Pull Tab Leash, Black 8-Inch by 3/4-Inch Width With Solid Brass Hardware.I wasn't sure I'd like this leash extension option. I was looking for a car leash or a super short training leash for my 70-ish pound Lab mix named Bob. And, then, I went to train Bob (who's quite tall for a Lab) and fell in love with this extension. I actually use it as a handle for leash training him. And, it's perfect...I can hook the long lead on (for when Bob potties) but when we're training the extension is the perfect length for me to able to correct Bob without too much excess in the way. And it has turned out to be a better car leash, because it doesn't get caught on anything in the car, but is still long enough for me to grab if I need his attention. And, the braid gives my hand some bulk to hold on to when I'm using it. I will probably order a second one for my IG...the beautiful leather and brass accents match perfectly with her Coach collar and leash. Thank you!

Gentle Leader Deluxe Head Collar and Leash, Large, My Little Angel/Red

Gentle Leader Deluxe Head Collar and Leash, Large, My Little Angel/RedWhen I received mine in the mail, the little clip to adjust the nose piece wouldn't clip in place. I quickly fixed it with a safety pin, and we were off.

This comes with a book of instructions, a DVD, absolutely everything you need to train yourself on how to train your dog. It teaches you how to strap it on, and how to give them treats as they learn to walk. After I was sure how to strap it on, I took to the streets with my boisterous lab.

The first thing people have to realize is this is NOT a muzzle. It goes around the top of the nose, and your dog can completely open their mouth.

The concept is simple: if you are walking forward, and your head is forced to the side, you will stop. You can't see where you're going. Dogs are the same way. This collar and leash puts the pressure in the correct way so that when the dog pulls beyond the reach of the leash, their head gets pulled to the side, instead of the neck getting strangled, and they simply stop. At first, they'll paw at it and try to get it off, but that's why you have the instructions and treats to get them used to it. Once you're done...you'll wonder how you ever lived without it!

After the first two walks, my dog now sniffs at her gentle leader constantly, trying to get me to take her for more walks even though there's snow everywhere!

My dog is one year old and still quite frisky. She is getting stronger and the kids were starting to have a hard time walking her. This completely solved the problem. The only issue I have with it is that only my 11 year old has figured out how to put it on. LOL

I just recently purchased this, so my dog is still getting use to it. My dog is like a little horse and when I received this and took it out of the package it immediately reminded me of a horse harness. I am using it to train my dog so I can walk him. He is so big and has so much power, that with our prior choke chain and chain leash I could not walk him. With the Gentle Leader Head Collar his demeanor is changed and he is a lot calmer. I am now training him to walk with me before I take the big jump and take him to the park. He is still getting use to the head collar and as soon as everything comes together I will take him for a walk. He is also a stubborn dog so this is taking a little longer. The quality of the head collar is very light, but well stitched. I thought the plastic piece would break, but so far so good. I find that by controlling his head, I can control him a lot better. I can't wait to be able to take him for walks.

I had a hard time walking my 2yr old mix golden retriever & choc lab with a standard leash and collar. She is a such a strong dog and puller. With the gentle leader she walks right beside me and no more pulling. It took a week for her to get used to the harness on her nose, but she a great learner. The only time she pulls is when she needs to go pee or poop.

IRIS Pet Training Tray, TFT-495, Potty Tray

IrisI was a bit hesistated about this because there was not enough pictures and no reviews and its in japanese. First, I love how its pretty strong enough for my 7pound puppy to go on the mesh tray. Secondly, its easy enough to put the pee pad under the mesh. Thirdly, the mesh keeps my puppy's paws free from pee stains. Fourthly, the price was lower than other products on Amazon. One thing that I want from this is another size. Its small, I knew it was small when I decided to buy but they only have ONE size. I wish they have it in bigger size. Its great though. My puppy went on it the first day it came. (I had to stain the mesh with a little urine) I will definitely recommend this to people with with small pets.
