Never to old to color



I have done quite a few reviews for both Tali Carmi and for other Adult coloring books. I love to read Tali Carmi's books to my smaller children and grandchildren while my older children and myself can enjoy Tali Carmi's talent in a new way. Through Adult Coloring Books which are growing in  popularity. Matter of fact while shopping I noticed that a popular store has a whole section dedicated to Adult coloring books.

Coloring is something that can be done at pretty much any age, but us adults sometimes want something a little more intricate. This is where Adult Coloring books come in. I love that this one had different breeds of dogs inside. I called the page with the Saint Bernard while my daughters and husband picked other pages for themselves. What I love is that these are one sided and if more then one person would like to do the same page you can copy them either on your copy machine, or scanner then print.

Now back to some time with my girls, coloring life away for a little while.

You can find this Adult Coloring book on Amazon.


Let your imagination soar and color this Amazing Dog Coloring pages with the colors of your choice.
This adult coloring book has Over 30 Different & Creative Dogs designs, originally designed by our Favorite Artist to give you the best coloring experience. Dog fanciers and coloring enthusiasts would definitely love this one. >Pages are SINGLE SIDED.

Walk two dogs with one leash



We have been looking for a double lead so we can walk two dogs at a time. We know when our Saint goes to the big doggie heaven in the sky we are going to get two new doggies to take her place. One for me and one for my husband. We also thought about getting a Savannah cat or two, they are so big and beautiful. Our kind of Kitty.

I like that I can have one leash with two dogs attached which will work great for our future needs. A simple invention that makes it easier for multiple dog owners.

You can find this double pet coupler on Amazon.

Silicone Pet Food Mat




We love our pets but they sure can make a mess while they are eating. We have Mama kitty who always takes a mouthful, puts it on the floor by the dish and then eats what she has taken then goes back for more.

We have another that about slam dances their face into the bowl every time like they have never been fed, splashing food everywhere, and then our third kitty who just eats very slow.

We were getting tired of sweeping, wiping, and scraping the floor by the dishes so this nice silicone mat comes in handy because when it is dirty it can be picked up discarding the hard food in the garbage and if there is any food particles stuck on the mat it is very easily washed and air dried. Much easier than mopping, sweeping, etc. Save me time, and is much faster than the later.

These mats come in several colors and measures 19 by 12 inches, and the best part besides the clean up is the little paw side so you can easily pick up your mat from the floor.

You can find this Silicone Pet Food Mat on Amazon.

Skout's Honor All Natural Stain and Odor Removers






I think the picture speaks more then I could ever in words but I will try. We have several cats, one giant Saint Bernard, lots of children, and a floor that has seen everything from food spills, blood, urine, feces, vomit, and mud from the kids as well as the animals.

I have used other products and they have worked well, some better then others, some on some stains, while other like Skout's Honor cut through it all.

You can see a spot that I missed on the clean part which was deep like the other dark spots you see on the dirty side. Mind you it says to saturate but I really only used a few sprays of the product to get what you see in the picture. Awesome products, and something we are going to add to our buy list for products that work great.

I love that the products are cruelty free, biodegradable, eco friendly, non toxic, as well as actually working which is what we really want when we purchase a cleaning product. Plus with every purchase there is money donated to feed a pet in need.

Now that I have used this upstairs I am excited to move onto my living room rug. Love that these products work so well. I think I would be hard pressed to find something better.

To use spray cleaner on area to be cleaned and 2 inches past all the way around, make sure to saturate everything, let sit 5 minutes. After sitting either blot up with rags or wet vac. We used our floor cleaner to vacuum up the liquid. Boy was the liquid yucky but after the floor was so clean my girls couldn't even believe it. The whole family is impressed with the results.

You can find Skout's Honor Products on Amazon.

No more yapping




There are plenty of training collars out there but if the only problem you have is a yappy dog, then you might be interested in Bark Control Collar. DogControlPro makes a pretty good one that you might want to try.

Unlike others this one is waterproof, has a long battery life between 6-18 months depending on use, and has an on and off switch. Easy to use but not recommended for small dogs.  Has different size nubs depending on your dogs hair length and size. Has 3 different levels of control so you can choose the that will work best for your pet. I suggest starting off on the lowest and working your way up to find the right setting.

You can find the DogControlPro Bark Control Collar on Amazon.

What DogControlPro has to say about their product.

Digital Microprocessor Automatic Bark Training Collar

This is one of the only automatic bark collars on the market that is run by a digital microchip system instead of a mechanical sensor. This means no false corrections that plague other automatic collars and will only correct when the dog wearing the collar is barking.

This collar solves the 3 most often complained about problems with automatic collars.
1) It is waterproof so can be worn while swimming or in heavy rain
2) It has an on/off switch to conserve battery life
3) It comes with a lithium ion battery INCLUDED that will last between 6-18 months instead of 3 days-3 weeks

This collar is made of high quality materials instead of cheap plastic components and the difference is even noticeable to the touch.

The collar strap is adjustable for almost all size dogs and there are 3 different levels of correction for dogs that range from "timid" to "stubborn"

Shiny Fur






Our pets loved to be brushed and cared for. Petting, brushing, combing they all love it as long as you are not hurting them. This brush from Shed Ninja is great because it has a pivoting head that goes with the contour of your animals body. Love that it has rounded metal bristles instead of sharp pieces because our kitties really enjoy this much better then the latter.

Different brushes do different things to your pets fur, of course you also need to find a brush both your pet loves and works for what you need it for.
This one, kind of takes care of it all if you regularly brush your pets will help create long lasting shine, as well as less shedding because you will catch more of the fur in the brush before it ever hits your floor, furniture, or clothes.

Feed my Pooch




If you travel with your pet you might want to invest in a set of these Collapsible bowls to be able to feed them on the run. Great for both smaller dogs and cats. Too small for our Saint Bernard her snout won't even fit inside.

I think these are great since then fold flat take up nearly no room, can fit on your belt buckle or even your dogs collar while hiking, walking, or traveling. I would like to see these made in larger sizes for the large and giant breed dogs in the future. Other then that these are pretty neat.

Keep your pet clean




We had a little bit of a discussion about keeping our pets clean and what scents we like them to smell like. Funny thing is I am not sure our pets always agree on what we pick for them to smell like. Until they can talk or pull away and I don't mean a little fight while giving a bath to I don't think we will really know for sure if they like it or not.

I do however let my pet smell what I am going to be putting on them and so far so good. I have had them in the past kind of turn away so I am pretty sure that is a sign they don't like it. With this shampoo she didn't turn away so it was a go. 

Bathing a Saint Bernard is hard enough, she just fits in our downstairs tub for her washing. She will get maybe two more baths before winter and then she won't get another until the spring. I don't care if she is a cold weather dog I am not going to let her shake off outside while it is cold. She is getting older and I don't want her to get sick. 

OK so back to the Fifi & Fido shampoo. While my husband says it smells like coconut cookie while I thought it smelled more like Fruit Punch, either way it makes our pet cleaner and leaves her smelling quite nice too.
