My Favorite Dog Products
Rescuing a dog has been one of the most rewarding and best decisions I’ve ever made. Mindy, our Beagle/American Staffordshire Terrier mix, is a true joy and brings happiness to every day. Over our years with her we’ve zeroed in on our favorite and most practical items for her.
Leather Collar: we love this collar! It’s cute and neutral and has stayed in excellent shape the whole time we’ve had it (almost 3 years!)
Leather leash: we had another leash for her before this one, but this leash was highly recommended by the trainer we met when we took Mindy to behavioral classes. It helps keep a tight grip and is a great quality.
Travel water bottle: on hot days or a long car ride, this comes in major handy without pouring water into a separate bowl.
Belt bag for walking: I wear this every day when I walk Mindy - it’s the perfect size and keeps my hands free for handling her while toting all the essentials along.
Deodorizing wipes: these are great when she rolls in something or on a rainy day when her paws get muddy.
Water additive: Mindy’s teeth aren’t so great, and this really helps keep them clean.
Snack bones: these are the perfect size to take along on a walk! We never leave the house without treats in case I lose grip of her, and this is just enough to keep her going or to distract her from other dogs passing by.
Furminator brush: this is key during shedding season!
Barkbox subscription: Mindy loves her Bark boxes! They are so fun and festive, but we go for bi-monthly boxes with just treats and chews because the toys were stacking up. But the toys, I must say, are the best toys. They can withstand anything.
