I recently worked at the Race for The Rescues event in Silverado, California with Toyota, talking pet safety in vehicles. They bring the cars and I equip them with various restraining devices to show to pet parents that there are choices when it comes to restraining a dog in a car. It is really not […]

Outward Hound Fun Feeder
There is no question that many dogs simply vacuum up their meals without ever using a taste bud. Hasty eating can in fact lead to digestion disorders such as bloat and food regurgitation. Tester Dani got to try out the Outward Hound Fun Feeder in the Flower design, which is designed to slow down the rate […]
Merrick Pet Care’s Purrfect Bistro Cat Food
When it comes to reviewing a pet food line, apart from the actual recipe itself, there are the Three T’s to take into account. Whether it’s a dog food of a cat food, the first two T’s are always at the discretion of the testers, namely taste and texture. The third T is in fact […]
Must-Have Books!
I am always thrilled when some of my favorite colleagues bring out new books. One can’t help casting a critical eye; it’s only human nature right? All the more reason to rave about the books when they really hit the high mark and are absolutely fabulous. So I can truly say that the latest books […]
Motorola Scout 66 Pet Video Monitor
It’s no secret that I have a working relationship with Motorola. But I only align myself with products that I truly believe in some way improve our experience as pet parents or the general health and wellbeing of our fur kids. And the Scout 66 pet video monitor is such a product. I love the […]

The PURRfect Cat Collar
I believe that EVERY domestic pet — both cat and dog should wear a collar. Even if they after microchipped, a collar sends the message that this pet has a home and belongs to someone. SO a collar along with an ID tag is as far as I am concerned an essential because its […]
The Ultimate Small Pet Carrier/Mobile Home
Last year, Consumers Digest rated the Sleepypod the magazine’s Premium Best Buy Carrier. And with very good reason.It is crash-tested and made from ballistic nylon. The design is a winner because many small dogs and of course cats, love to sleep “in the round”. And there is another plus. For dogs and cats that […]
The Plush Pet Bed
It’s probably fair to say that I have inspected dozens, if not hundreds of pet beds. Last year, beds was a category I researched for Consumers Digest magazine and they don’t talk about “a category” but instead refer to it as a “product universe” because there are so many makes and styles. So I would […]
