Pet Product Reviews

Thinkers Smart Dog Snacks by Plato Pet Treats

While Larry has reviewed everything from hoodies to collars, he has never promoted any food items given his diet remains so strict. With that said, when the Thinkers treats were spotted in a locally-owned pet shop we decided these snacks might be a great addition to Larry's palette. After reading the ingredients, which are natural and over 90% meat, we were sold. As a bonus, we appreciated that the treats contain zero by-products, artificial colors, preservatives, or GMO's. Upon opening each container of snacks my sense of smell was completely overwhelmed with an intense compilation of odors. While the Pacific Salmon smells similar to fish, Larry's philosophy is "The stinkier the better." Talk about a happy puppy, he would have wrote this review himself for another serving if he could!

Ruff Wear's Palisades Pack™

Staying hydrated is a necessity, so the mere concept of Larry being able to carry his own water and other essentials is exciting. The removable saddlebags incorporate 2 hydration bladders that hold a total of 2 liters of water. Zippered away on both sides, filling up the bladders is very simple. Of course, you can't just throw the bladders into the dish washer to clean them after an adventure. Rather you must pour in some warm soapy water and rinse them thoroughly. The bladders should be empty and dry before storing the pack away for another fun filled day. Since I was already familiar with hydration packs for humans, using this product appropriately came very naturally.

Booda® by Petmate® Fur Tug™, Tuff 'n Tuffer™, and Squeakbottle™ Dog Toys

First and foremost, you should know that the Tuff 'n Tuffer™ is infused with a genuine chicken flavor. When Larry is done playing with this plush and rubber toy his breath even smells like chicken! Given the frequency with which he completely destroys new toys I appreciate how this one was constructed to be so durable. Each of Petmate®'s Booda® Toys have a category rating system which offers an added understanding to you, the consumer about what type of toy you are purchasing. The Tuff 'n Tuffer™ is considered perfect for chewing because it's extra tough. So far, it has resisted any shredding and is played with multiple times a day!

Petmate®'s Aspen Pet American Kennel Club™'s Premier Matching Leash and Adjustable Collar

When Larry was a puppy he had a deep affection for chewing through his leashes. Whether he was in the middle of a walk around the block or happened to find where it was stored in the house, the first few poor leashes didn't stand a chance. Therefore, the need for a back up collar and leash set was important to have on hand at all times. Especially with all the traveling thanks to the holidays, keeping one stored in my suitcase over Thanksgiving was a life saver. With that said, thanks to Petmate®'s Aspen Pet American Kennel Club™'s matching leash and adjustable collar set, Larry the Lab never ceased to look good!

Simply Fido's Oscar Monkey

During late night blogging hours Larry the Lab needs company. Not just anyone of course, but his organic toy monkey Oscar from Simply Fido. Made out of certified organic cotton fabric the toy is non-toxic and chemical free. While environmentally friendly toys are a bit more expensive then the other items in your local pet store the investment is worth it for your best friend! Larry eats only Science Diet cookies and food so it's only natural that his toys uphold the same high quality consistency.

Purrfect Play Organic Natural Dog Toys

A healthier organic lifestyle is obtainable for yourself and your pets. Purrfect Play is an organic dye-free dog brand that hooked Larry the Lab up big time. Today's review features their fortune flyer toy, leash pouch, and wool ball. Since you only put the finest ingredients into your body shouldn't you uphold the same logic for your canine best friend thats always by your side? Plus, the more Purrfect Play products you add to your house the more money is donated to no-kill and rescue organizations. Five percent of each sale is donated! It's always a good feeling when a company's logic and priorities align with your own.

Premier Pet Products Pogo Plush Bunny

Unlike any other toy Larry has played with, the inside is made of a unique bouncy squishy frame. The toy has a free floating squeaker in it as well making it an MVP for Larry. The bounce back effect makes this toy his absolute favorite. Since his bunny goes everywhere with him I appreciated learning that the Pogo Plush is machine washable. Stuffing free I'm amused that Larry has to have his pogo plush bunny when he's napping. I completely agree with the toys packaging, it's "guaranteed to be your dog's favorite."

Premier Pet Products Easy Walk Harness

Available in a wide range of colors and sizes, Larry's purple harness is a size medium. If you've ever struggled to put a harness on your pet before then you're in for a real treat because I've never been so easily able to outfit Larry. Thanks to the belly strap being a different color and the two quick snap buckles getting Larry in and out is a breeze. Rather then the old fashioned harness I appreciate that at no point does Larry end up coughing or wheezing due to the harness. I can now easily discourage Larry from pulling while at the same time get him to be a good little walker who stays beside me. With four different points of adjustment your dog will be walking with ease in no time.
