Get Serious!

GET SERiOUS! Pheromone, Stain & Odor Extractor is an amazing product that should be in every pet owners cabinet! Why? It does what it says it does!

We got lucky with our dog, Baby, in that she hasn’t had any accidents in the house, even as a puppy learning to potty train! But, we love using the cleaner on her pet bed, which sometimes has little leaks to clean now that she is getting older. We really would have loved this product with our first dog though, as he had a hard time potty training. I know it will come in handy later as we move into the “senior” years with our current dog though!

Not only does it clean the accidents that pets can sometimes leave on our carpets, but it can also help speed the potty training process by extracting odors, including your pet’s pheromone! Without the smell, pets don’t return to the spot! It’s a great way to help your dog or cat learn to go where they are supposed to.

GET SERiOUS! is available at PetSmart, 1-800-PetMeds & pet supply retailers nationwide. It comes in 3 sizes, and also dog and cat specific formulas. We especially love that it’s non-toxic, and biodegradable. It’s great to have something that is safe to use around our beloved pets.

We also love this product because it can help solve a problem that sometimes leads to pets being given up. Sadly indoor accidents and the damage that they can cause is one of the leading causes of pets being sent to the pound. The company has an article about why The Pheromone Factor is so important, and how their product helps address the issue.

We think GET SERiOUS is very wish list worthy, and something pet owners will wonder how they ever lived without!

Natural Dog Snout Soother

Anyone who has a dog will absolutely love this great pet product! The Natural Dog Snout Soother is made just for dogs who have dry, cracked noses. It can be used to heal an already dry snout, or used to prevent one from ever happening. If you have dry lips or skin, then you know how much it can hurt, but luckily we have easy ways to take care of it. Dogs with dry chapped noses didn’t have relief, until now!

Made from nourishing, and healing ingredients that are 100% natural, it does wonders on dry noses. With a light, natural smell that isn’t too strong, and some seriously awesome packaging, we fell in love with the product before we even tried it on Baby’s dry nose.

Cute packaging

Some of the ingredients in Snout Soother even contain natural sunscreen, Snout Soother has an estimated SPF 9. It can also be used to help with weather related dryness, puppy acne, discoid lupus, cracking and chapped noses. I even tried it on my own cracked and dry hands, and it worked great! Click here to see some amazing before and after photos of dog noses that have been treated with the snout soother. We have seen a difference from using it on our dog’s nose, and think that this is a product that should be added to every dog owner’s wish list.

Pet Head

Designer Doggy (one of our awesome sponsors) sent us a bottle of Pet Head shampoo for Baby to try. You may be familiar with the human version, known as Bed Head! It’s a high quality shampoo, and we were thrilled to see that they offer a pet line. We chose the “Life’s and Itch” version of the shampoo because our sweet dog has dry skin. The shampoo smells wonderful, and she didn’t mind getting into the bath to have a good washing since it smelled like a treat.

This particular version (and there are many other choices too) is made especially to help with itchy skin. It contains no harsh chemicals, coal tar or drugs such as cortisteroids. It did a great job, not only did it get our little dog clean, but she wasn’t itching as much after she had been washed with the Pet Head product.

Because we live in a dry climate, especially in the winter, it was great to find a product that could help her. After all, it’s not like you can easily put lotion on a dog! We also thought that the packaging was really fun, and the bone on the lid is not just cute, but helpful too (makes it easier to open).

Designer Doggy has a lot of great products, everything from beds and leashes, to toys and clothes and beyond. The site offers everything that your pampered pooch could need. Four paws up for Pet Head, and for Designer Doggy for being so great about quick shipping, and a wide selection for our furry friends.

Puppy Kisses: Stylish Items for your dog.

We were lucky enough to get a stylish hair bow from Puppy Kisses. They have many fun products for your dog, but their Designer Dog Hair Bows are just awesome. Each bow is hand crafted with high quality grosgrain ribbon and decorated with real Swarovski Crystal or coordinating accent.

They offer a great variety of patterns and colors to match your pup’s personal style. Baby got an animal print with a red crystal, which looked adorable on top of her head! We keep her hair short, but even without much hair to put in the bow, the bow stayed in really well. The bows have a French style metal barrette closure with a non-slip grip to ensure they stay in all types of hair.

I wasn’t able to get a photo of Baby wearing hers, as she promptly scooted her head around to get it off, but for those few moments, she looked adorable! You can see how cute they look though in the photo to the left (from the Puppy Kisses website). I really wish that she would wear bows though, as they are great for keeping hair out of your dog’s eyes.

Puppy Kisses also offers fun toys, clothes, and other great items for the stylish pooch and the people who love them! Visit the Puppy Kisses website to see their full selection.
