Puppy Potty Training: It’s Not as Hard as You May Think

by Valerie Goettsch

“Not on the Carpet!” How many times have you yelled this, or something similar, at your new puppy?
Puppy Potty TrainingWhile soiling the house is bound to happen on occasion with a new puppy, potty training is easier than you may think, although it does take some time, patience, and consistency.

Would Your Dog Benefit From An Orthopedic Dog Bed?

By Valerie Goettsch

Just like with us humans and the type of beds we prefer, what makes a comfortable bed for your dog can depend on his age, health, and personality.

Orthopedic dog beds are built to protect and provide added comfort for aged dogs, those with arthritic joints, and dogs that are overweight.

They provide maximum support and are typically constructed with medical-grade orthopedic egg crate foam cores and sometimes box-springs. There are even gel-foam beds that conform to your dog’s shape.
