The Riley Report – DuraChew® Monster Bone
January 12, 2012 by admin | Dog News | Comments (0) |
Riley Reviews His New DuraChew® – Monster Bone
My dog Riley does a great job at chewing his bones down to a nub within hours of receiving them (as can be seen in the photo of his old bone above). He received a DuraChew® – Monster Bone about a month ago, and while he has tried his hardest to chew it down, he hasn’t gotten very far. The Monster Bone has proved to be a challenge for Riley, he loves chewing on it since it’s not as easy as most bones for him to break down. The Monster Bone is great for large dogs who are powerful chewers. Riley especially enjoys the bone’s chicken flavoring. He will carry the Monster Bone around in his mouth just to ensure no one else can steal a taste!

New Year’s Resolutions for You and Your Dog
December 29, 2011 by admin | Dog News | Comments (0) |
Celebrate the New Year with Your Dog
When you think of New Year’s Eve, you probably think of fun parties, noise, and libations. However, your dog’s idea of a perfect New Year’s Eve is probably snuggling with you on the couch and watching the ball fall on Times Square on the television. No matter how you decide to celebrate, it is a great time to make some resolutions for the year ahead with your dog.
- New Year’s Resolution #1: Get your pooch’s weight where it belongs. In a recent study, thinner dogs lived an average of more than 2 years longer that slightly chubby ones. You want your dog with you for as many years as possible, so talk to his vet about a sensible weight loss plan.
- New Year’s Resolution #2: Get vigorous exercise at least five times a week. That’s pretty easy to do with a dog, since it might mean just chasing his favorite toy around the house for 20 minutes at a time. Walking, for most dogs, is the ideal exercise.
- New Year’s Resolution #3: Get an annual physical check-up for your dog. Just do it—just one appointment a year with your vet can save your best friend’s life.
- New Year’s Resolution #4: Give your dog some social time with other dogs. While a fraction of dogs don’t enjoy the company of other dogs, most love to play and just hang out with other dogs. Find a play group (or start one) of other nicely behaved dogs. Your dog will love you for it.
- New Year’s Resolution #5: Take as good care of yourself as you take care of your dog. Your furry friend needs for you to be healthy and long-lived, just like you want him to be. So, go get your own annual check-ups! Check with your own doctor about a diet and exercise plan. Step one might be a long, lovely walk with your favorite dog on New Year’s morning. And that may start a whole new season in your life with your dog.
