Alfie Couture Pet Accessory - Flashing Pet Safety Collar - Collar Color: Yellow, LED Light Color: Ye

Alfie Couture Pet Accessory - Flashing Pet Safety Collar - Collar Color: Yellow, LED Light Color: Yellow, Size: XSLove the 3 settings for the lights, easy to use, easy to put on and to see at night. It's brighter than I thought it would be which is great.

The glowing LED light is perfect for my tiny black puppy at night otherwise he would be lost in the darkness. i was thrilled that its being made and that it is so easy to put on him since he is so frantic to get outside. But the interior fiber optic tube doesn't allow for much adjusting (even at this size it is still too big). The batteries are dying already and the light is thus faded in brightness. It takes two round watch-style large flat batteries. It would be nice if the batteries lasted much longer!

Bungee Pupee 3-Feet Large Leash, Black/Gold/Grey

Bungee Pupee 3-Feet Large Leash, Black/Gold/GreyBlue/Black Bungee Pupee up to 45 pounds 6ft

This is a great choice for a dog that tends to pull at times. I have this in medium and large. This medium size is perfect for my 45# shar pei and for my 66# shar pei. The medium is listed for dogs up to 45# and has 3 cord strands. The large size was too heavy with the 4 stands for my larger male who doesn't tend to pull. The medium really fit them both well. The large size up to 165# is a very heavy duty product with 4 bungee cord strands that would be an excellent choice for a dog larger and more active than my lazy male CSP.

It is an attractive and very well made leash. I fasten the hand grip in a waist belt for jogging with my 45# CSP. It is durable. If your dog suddenly pulls, the leash gives with the bungee so you are not suddenly jerked by your dog. Ideally, all our dogs would walk or run nicely beside us and never jerk away at a passing squirrel or cat. But, if your dog is like mine--you can never be sure when she will see something that she can't resist!

Highly recommend this product!Dog Leash Blue/Black Bungee Pupee up to 165 pounds 3ftBlue/Black Bungee Pupee up to 45 pounds 6ft

Do they stop my hounds from pulling? No. They're the houndiest of hounds, and they like pulling. Perhaps these leashes would have been helpful if they had been puppies and just learning to walk on a leash, but they were all adult shelter dogs when I got them.

However, in every other way these leashes are great. I bought the first two at a pet show several years ago. I just bought the third one for my newest adoptee. The leashes are extremely sturdy and the padded handles are easy to grip. Aside from being a bit dirty now, my original two leashes still look brand new. For me, the 3-foot length is perfect, as if the leads are too long the three hounds tend to get the leashes tangled when all three are walked at the same time.

Using these leashes (bought 3 others in different weights and lengths) to train 2 Labrador Retrievers... one 50 lbs the other 80 lbs. Product works well to get their attention with a short pull on the leash, plus allows for lapse of concentration on the pups part too (say when they see a rabbit... you don't get your shoulder pulled out of its socket). The product is incredibly well made of high quality materials.

I bought this leash to help alleviate jerking motions my young Eskie causes during our walks. If you know American Eskimo dogs, you know they aren't the greatest on leashes. They're a very independent minded dog and tend to sprint or leap unexpectedly on leashes, although they are incredibly trainable in other ways. I picked the 3ft length because I live in the city. I can't let my pup (he's 9 months) get 6ft away from me on busy streets and sidewalks.

PRO: As far as function goes, this leash does EXACTLY what it promises. It's durable and stretches just enough to absorb the force but no so far that it's rubbery. For that reason, it scored 5 stars.

CON: I was really disappointed that when I ordered it, the 3-foot variety for dogs weighing up to 65lbs didn't come in more than one color scheme on Amazon. I ordered it anyway hoping that when it arrived I'd be pleasantly surprised. However, the moment I saw it come out of the box: "Ugh." I saw recently they added a blue-black-gold variety, and I wish it was available when I ordered this one.

The colors are muddy. I REALLY dislike camouflage color schemes for dog accessories and was hoping the gold bungee would make the leash not appear so camo, but it's definitely camo-looking.

The 165lb 3ft leash comes in at least three different color schemes, but I don't need one nearly so strong for my 18-pound pup. And before anyone says I should have ordered one of the many Bungee Puppee leashes for dogs 25lbs and under, they are all 6 feet long and not what I need.

For function, it's PERFECT. But for appearance, it's a let down and so I deducted one star.

Pro-Treat Beef Liver, Freeze Dried Dog Treats

Stewart's Pro-Treat 1 Ounce Bag Freeze Dried Dog Treats, Beef Liver by MiracleCorp/GimbornMy dog has never stopped loving these treats for over a year.

Service was great and shipping was prompt.

Altho you can't give too many of these to your dog on any given day (not suggested by the manufacturer), I have never found a treat that my German Shorthair Pointer really loved, until we discovered these. Buzzy just loves them more than anything....even more than the meatballs I through in his food to entice him to chow down (he's very finicky)!!! Get em for your best friend!!!

Buy Pro-Treat Beef Liver, Freeze Dried Dog Treats Now

Freeze dried liver has a hypnotic effect on dogs. They LOVE it and will do just about anything for it, so it is a great treat to use for training. (Powdered freeze dried liver is even added to many dog medicines nowadays-heartworm and arthritis tablets, etc.-because it causes the dog to scarf the medicine down like a treat.)

Freeze dried liver has a dry, hard, yet powdery/easy to chew consistency. It comes chopped/cubed. It is extremely lightweight due to the fact there is so little moisture in the product (thus the low weights on product labels).

Even though your dog will love liver treats, you shouldn't overfeed it. The manufacturer recommends 1-2 cubes daily for small dogs, 2-3 cubes for medium dogs, and 3-4 cubes for large dogs.

The largest package sizes of liver treats tend to be far more economical. I recommend buying the larger tubs, as you will save lots of money, you'll have a handy treat supply around for a longer time, and your dog will never tire of this product.

There is really zero waste with this product. When you near the end of the tub you'll find some powdery bits of dried liver at the bottom. Your dogs will go CRAZY if you sprinkle this dust over their dog food-it's a wonderful reward that is easy to use.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here's the nutritional analysis:

-100% freeze dried liver

-NO additives or preservatives.

-Crude protein..... not less than 50%

-Crude fat..... not less than 5%

-Crude fiber..... not more than 3%

-Moisture..... not more than 6%

These are great training treats when you need something lightweight that won't make a mess of your pockets. I have a couple problems with them though. First, they are too expensive for every day training. Second, the sizes are so inconsistent that you need to cut some of the large cubes up (at this price, they should be ready-to-eat). Actually there is a third, which is that the powder leftover on the bottom is useless to me.

I've found it much cheaper to just put some sliced beef liver from the store in the oven and bake till dry. Cut it up, put it in small portions, and freeze. My dog likes it better than the freeze-dried anyway. I do a whole bunch at a time so I am not prepping frequently. But I figure if I have to prep something, it might as well be something cheap!

My dog goes bonkers for these treats! They seem to be crazy delicious. Some of the pieces are so small, Lulu doesn't have to chew them; she seems to swallow them whole. I wonder how she even tastes them! But she must, because she whines and acts like a obnoxious brat every time I go near the bucket.

I like that the treats don't have any additives. They really stink, though, and the smell stays on your fingers. The smell and the price are the only downsides. Also, I wish the container said how many calories the treats have so I could compare them to other natural treats like Fruitables. The vet said Lulu is getting fat (to which I replied "Yo momma is fat!") and that we should start watching her calories.

If you're curious about the consistency of the size of the pieces, please see the photos I posted. There's some variation in size, and when I tip the bucket, I see more crumbly pieces at the bottom, but I don't foresee Lulu turning her nose up at them!

Still annoying, yes, but I'm happy with the major decrease. Sometimes I wish humans were as well behaved as our animals.

Dog Supplies Training Pad Holder Tray Medium (Up To 17.5X23.5)

Dog Supplies Training Pad Holder Tray MediumThis is a good product. It contains the urine well (if your dog is paper trained). The only problem is that my older, stupider dog thinks it's a dog bed. pew-wee. And for some reason, my little (paper trained) dog still chooses to defecate on the floor by the pad. I do think this product is saving my wood floors. Worth it.

Beefeaters Little Bitz Small Round Chips with Chicken On Top

Beefeaters Little Bitz Small Round Chips with Chicken On Top, 5-OunceI picked up these when the local pet store stopped carrying the thin bone shaped Little Bitz chicken and rawhide chews. The Beefeaters Little Bitz Small Round Chips are circular wafers of rawhide backing with a hard dried meaty topping. I was reluctant about getting these because they are about 1/4 of an inch thick though they don't seem to be more than an inch in diameter, and well I wasn't sure if it would be too big for my teacup's bite. My picky pooch seems to do ok with them though sometimes the cracking sounds she makes scares her but she cant get enough of these. I prefer the similar product by Beefeaters that are thinner less chunky. These are great for smaller breeds. But be warned they give my dog terrible gas. Only recommend these if you really love your fur babies and won't mind the smell.

IRIS 8-Panel Plastic Pet Pen, CI-908, Pink

IRIS 8-Panel Plastic Pet Pen, CI-908, Pinkgreat1 i use this everyday. my pups ..pom..chi..and jack russtle chi.

The jack r chi.. can jump over it now and my other chi climbs out.. but my pom stays in ;) i recomend it to people with lil dogs.

The pen is very high as well as wide which kept my dog (who is an escape artist) from getting out. I also loved the fact that it was pink and a cute little door. This was a great buy and i would definitely recommend it!!

I've been looking for a good size crate for my puppy. I was a bit skeptic about this crate but i have to make s choice. I'm glad I choose this one. Its super cute in pink and its pretty sturdy. My puppy cant escape nor can she slide it around the floor. I would suggest that you use the crate on a flat surface. I bought the 8 panel one. She has sooo much room in her new home she loves it!

Very happy with the IRIS 8 panel pen. We purchased the pen for our yorkie poo puppy to have a safe place to play, since we also have a large lab. It is roomy and spacious enough . The sides are pretty tall making it slightly difficult to bend over and pick the puppy up ( there is a door) It's very lightweight (plastic, but durable) making it easy to move around.

Overall.... Great purchase

Want IRIS 8-Panel Plastic Pet Pen, CI-908, Pink Discount?

This product is great for my dog so I do not have to keep her in a little cage while I am gone!

The only thing I had a problem with was that the little plastic pieces that cover the poles would fall off. It is only one of the poles I have had problems with but it is noting a little glue can't fix.

I still love this product because you can add and take away as many panels as you would like!

I would highly recommend it!

Lentek Koolatron Dog-Off

Lentek Koolatron Dog-OffEvery time I ride I get chased by dogs because I ride a recumbent trike. The Silent button with the ultrasonic sound is less effective than the other button that makes the continual irritating noise. The dogs do pause which gives me an opportunity to cycle away, but on a few occasions they have continued to pursue especially the smaller dogs. Generally it works though. I wish they would make it smaller so attach more conveniently to the bike and also that it would stop the dogs dead in their tracks once the button is pushed. All in all it has actually been very helpful.

The product does not seem to work.. the dogs still bark when I press the button.. the alarm button is pretty loud.. it's great to use as an alarm.. the flash light is not really bright.. But I got this item for the ultrasound for dogs.. but it doesn't seem to work too well...

Both of my dogs ignored the ultrasound completely. They were however curious about the audible warning sound. I am not sure the ultrasound worked at all.

The first problem I have is that the Emergency Alarm for personal protection should not be on a unit for animal control. The very first thing that happened? My wife hit the wrong button and scared all of us half to death. The other, bigger, problem is the unit isnt powerful enough. It barely works on our dogs and to keep it effective for "barely" we have to use it way more sparingly than we could have imagined thus making it useless most of the time in trying to train our dogs into not barking so much at random sounds. Given the knowledge, based on experience now, I would have tried one of their other products, hoping it was more powerful.

Sound Barrier Indoor Sonic Fence

Sound Barrier Indoor Sonic Dog & Cat Fence SB-1It works just fine. The sensitivity is adjustable, from "Don't get anywhere frickin near this, Damnit!" to "Come on over and sniff the funny colored box, cat!" It makes a really annoying audible beep when it senses the collar, and continues to beep until the collar goes away.

Note: This will NOT train your cat on its own. You still have to punish the cat when it goes off, to give the cat the idea that the noise is "bad" and not just "annoying". However, it does tell you when the cat is trying to get somewhere you don't want him, so you can punish as you see fit, without having to stare at whatever it is you are trying to keep the cat away from.

When the so-called piercing alarm went off, my dog stood there, tilted her head and looked at me as though to say, "Whaaas up?" I couldn't ship it back fast enough...can't someone make a product that is so high a pitch that HUMANS can't be annoyed by it but it keeps dogs away? PLEASE...

This product is not for containing an animal like a fence, but for scaring them away from a certain spot. I am using it to keep my chronic poop eater dog away from the cat litter boxes. Works like a charm! I like that it is just noise, not a painful shock, and also the loud alarm lets me know when he's trying, so I can come reinforce the warning. I've been trying for 10 years to keep him out of the litter boxes, and now he won't go near them after only a few alarms!

It works great. Keeps the cat away from the christmas tree. The device was very easy to use. Love it

Want Sound Barrier Indoor Sonic Fence Discount?

our dog would eat the poop from the kitty litter box. So we setup the box in the hall leading to the bathroom where the litter box was. Our dog went near there once it went off and she left the hallway. Few weeks latter we were upstairs (the litter box bathroom is downstairs) and we heard it go off, our dog came running upstairs and looked like she knew she was in trouble. After that she has never gone near that hallway again. it's been months now and our dog still wont go down that hallway even if we are down it ( laundry is also down the hall) she will just stand at the edge of the hall or lay down there. We have since removed the collar and our dog still hasn't gone down there. Mission accomplished.

X-Mat Pet Training Mat - Flexible Mat

X-Mat Pet Training Mat - Flexible MatI gave this as a gift to my stepfather to use in his wheelchair. At night he would have to take the arms & seat apart to protect it from the cats. Now, all he has to do is place the mat in the seat. They only bothered it once. I initially anticipated buyIng him the electric pad, but I knew he would forget it was there & fire up his fanny. This was a safer & cheaper alternative.

I use these to keep my cats from sitting on top of my warm water fish tank. They are certainly uncomfortable for any animal to stand or sit on. They do not injure the cat. If my cat cracks the top or falls into my fish tank this would be ugly. They are a training aid, not a one time miracle cure for behavior issues. They can be trimmed to size and are washable. I would recommend them to anyone with cats who also has a fish, bird or lizard cage/tank.

i got this for our "sitting room" so the (3)cats and (1)dog wouldnt get hair all over the sofa. I got this out of the box and touched it it hurt the heck. There was no way i would let an animal jump on this. This is abuse. I returned mine and will never try again. Its very sharp and hurts just to place your hand on... think about an animal jumping and landing on this with all their body weight.. PLEASE DO NOT BUY.. ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!!

I bought it so my cat would not pick under my bedroom door at 3 a.m. to tell me she's hungry and wants breakfast NOW. Instead of picking under my door, she picked around the mat, which was just as annoying. If I leave my bedroom door open a crack with the mat in front, she just jumps over it and into the room. I think two mats placed side by side across my doorway would work best, but for now I think I'll go back to piling blankets and pillows in front of the door so I don't hear her picking and scratching. I'm sure it will work fine for chairs and counters, but my cat doesn't have that problem. Oh well, live and learn.
