Give Your Pets a Little TLC

January 28th, 2011 at 3:01 pm by lalagirl

For the everyday person, taking care of personal hygiene is a given.  However, what about those furry little critters that we take under our wing?  That’s right, our pets deserve the same amount of personal hygiene as we give ourselves; however, sometimes that can be a difficult feat as we don’t know what our pets prefer.  There are many different shampoos and conditioners out there that our furry friends would enjoy, such as Jasmine and Vanilla, Violet and Sea Mist Lush, Red Berries and Champagne and so much more.  There are also shampoos that brighten and revitalize, and will include certain conditioning sprays that will treat your pets fur the way it should be treated.

Choosing to wash your pets on a consistent basis is not only beneficial to their health, but also helps them to smell good as well as rid themselves of any harmful parasites.  Many shampoos and conditioners work to fight against unwanted pests allowing you and your pet to live a parasite free life.  This is extremely valuable for your household because it will avoid the ongoing of uninvited bugs which will be difficult to get rid of if you don’t take care of it initially.

If you are looking for shampoos and conditioners for your pets, there are many different ones to choose from.  Whether your pet has dry skin, is prone to shedding, has tangled hair or just needs a little rejuvenation, you will be able to find the perfect product for your pet.  Animals enjoy being taken care of just like we do so don’t neglect your pet and the health of their hair – they will love you even more for it in the end!

“Dog” days of summer, Part 1…

May 26th, 2009 at 8:00 am by Leah & Jack

So summer is coming and that means my dog, Jack, has special needs that I have to deal with – especially with his fur and skin.  I’m sure any doggie parent with a small fluffy dog can relate!  I always struggle with keeping his fur from getting matted, but grass and sticker burrs are constantly attaching themselves to him during the summer months.  I love using Isle of Dog products…their products are very gentle on my dog’s skin and it smells great.  During the winter, I usually use the No. 16 to keep him bright white.  But during the summer, I like to switch to the Detangle Shampoo No. 30 – his fur gets super soft and I don’t have to brush him as often.  I love the fact that it saves me time!

It’s also really important to me to keep Jack hydrated too – it gets extremely hot here in Texas.  I always carry a portable water bottle with me for made especially for dogs to help prevent dangerous overheating.  And I know this seems silly, but I discovered a new product – Pet Sunscreen by Doggles.  It’s made specifically for dogs (non-toxic!) and his poor nose won’t get sunburned like it did the first summer we got him.

Everyone is so concerned these days about sun damage.  But we never seem to think about our dogs suffering from sun damage or from heat stroke.  But if you think about it, it’s imperative to keep our pets cool and healthy during the summer too.  It’s not as if they can speak up and complain about a sunburn on their noses or that they’re getting too hot, so it’s important to take preventive action.

Say Goodbye to Unsightly Tear Stains and Grubby Muzzles!

July 17th, 2007 at 7:55 pm by lalagirl

Runny eyes and tear stains (medically referred to as Epiphora) are a major concern for dog owners.  If you have a white Bichon Frise, Maltese, or Poodle, you are probably very familiar with unsightly tear stains.  They certainly don’t go well with your dog’s new couture.   The bacteria or yeast growth, particularly an organism called “red yeast” (causes the red/brownish stain color and possibly unpleasant odor) thrive on moisture and are attracted to the tear ducts in the eyes. Dogs with eye lash and eyelid problems, and dogs doomed by their genetics from their shallow eye sockets, have faulty tear drainage anatony.  Regular cleaning is required as the trapped moisture and tears can lead to bacterial infection. I found a great article about this on VeterinaryPartner.com. Click here to read it.

EyePack to the rescue! Say goodbye to unsightly eye stains and grubby muzzles! I am so excited about these two products as I have been wishing for something to make the eye stains go away and ease up muzzle cleaning.  The EyePads and EyeMunity pack not only keeps your dog’s eyes healthy and clean, but also improve the overall immune system as the main ingredient in the EyeMunity is Epicor,  an ingredient proven in clinical studies to have antioxidant properties.  All ingredients are human grade!  Dog breeds like Bulldogs, Cocker Spaniels, Poodles, Malteses, Sharpeis, Bichon Frise, and Pugs can really benefit from this product as they are genetically are more prone to having tear staining. If you buy the EyePack which has both these cool products, you save $4.  

Basic tips:  Give your pet fresh, distilled water, use stainless steel bowls, and keep their eyes clean (and area around the eyes like folds and muzzle) and dry everyday.
