Wild Calling: A New Taste for our Fur Babies

Having two different dogs is like having two  kids whose personality are  so different.   Our Jack Russel Terrier (Champ), is very hyper while our mixed-breed dog (Bolt - part miniature pincher and part doberman) is very   mellow and gentle.  Champ loves to bark   and very aggressive while Bolt is very quite. 

Having said that, even on food, they have their own preference.  Champ loves  seafood like fish while Bolt is not crazy about it.  I thought of letting them try this  Wild Calling Mountain Lake  dog food made of 96% duck meat.  It is a grain-free rotational diet dogs.

There  is added vitamins and minerals on this  dog food to ensure a healthy life for canine. It does not contain artificial  ingredients but has  zinc, copper and iron.   They are made in the USA and you can get it for   $35.35 (12 cans) at their website.

See how excited Champ is for his dinner?He immediately lick the opened can and  tried to immediately  have a taste of it.

Bolt on the other hand, did not touch his food.  For some odd reason, this is the very first time where gave him something that he did not like.  I think, he doesn't like the pasty texture of it.  I even mixed it with their dry dog food so it will grab on to something and he won't have a hard time eating it but he refused to eat it.  So I discovered that he is not  fond of ducks!

I also got this Nature's Miracle stain odor remover  because I will be cleaning this house  when we move out next month  to get it ready for listing.  I did not realized that they have specific  bottle for cats and dogs.  I don't have a cat so I got the wrong  bottle.  Anyway, this cost  $7.29 at Chewy.com but I think I can still use it as it can remove stain from the carpet so we will see.  This suppose to break down odors from dog and cat vomit, urine, feces, or any other organic substance on contact, and penetrates deep into surfaces to wipe away stains.  This is suitable for carpet, hardwoods, kennels, fabric, and more.

Gourmet Carnivore Beef Liver and Chicken for our Dogs

Introducing new foods to our fur babies is exciting.  Our dogs Love anything excep dry dog food.  Chewy,com sent  Bolt and Champ one  box of  Tiki Dog Gourmet Carnivore Beef Liver & Chicken canned dog food.  As usual, they are  excited for meal time.   

This will surely satisfy your dog's carnivore cravings with a gourmet menu that matches their natural prey diet! It has  whole meats and great flavor that  your carnivore dog  is sure to love.  Believe me because our  two fur babies loves it!

Tiki Dog Gourmet Carnivore comes in different flavor, it's available in chicken with turkey, beef liver and lamb, chicken with duck, and this beef liver and chicken that I got.  There's a dozen in every box and you can get it for $40.92.  This is also grain and guten-free which really nice.

These two have been enjoying this gourmet food  ever since it arrived.  Of course, I always  mixed it with their dry dog food so they won't run out fast with yummy stuff. 

 I am sure that  the taste of this familiar to the ones I have prepared for them before when I bought some chicken  and liver and cooked it for them.  Dogs these days are very lucky because they get to eat hese gourmet menus that a lot of compan's are  doing now.  My dogs when I was growing up eats whatever we have left on the table hehehe.  It's still  healthy for them but you know, they only get the scrapes and stuff.

Naughty or NIce? Holiday Treat! #Product Review

Looking at these two, (Bolt and Champ, who do you think is naughty and who is nice?  These two fur babies are actually very nice this year so we are rewarding them with goodies.  It's funny, I asked them to wear a tie  so I can take pictures of them and they  did not move so I guess that was their  approval of me  putting these ties on their neck lol.  

They normally don't like anything on their neck bu this time, they played along with me.  My daughter wasn't feeling good when I  took these photos.  I told the dogs that we have to do something that would make the little lady feel better.  She actually  laughed when she saw these two with ties on and i started taking photos.  

We love talking to our dogs.  It's hilarious to see  how their eyes and ears reacts to what you say.  Champ would usually  put his ears up and down when he hears  "walk", "play", and "ball" then he wiggles his tail.  

When we talk to Bolt, he usually respond  with  bark especially if he hears the word "food".  When he is guilty of something, he doesn't look at us, his eyes  moves  like avoiding to  look at you.

I got them a dozen of this Merrick Classic Grain-Free Venison Holiday Stew Recipe canned dog food  from Chewy and they are loving it.  If we  deserve to have a little extra eat during the holidays, our fur babies deserve some holiday treats as well and this venison holiday stew is just perfect for them. It is full of venison, red jacket new potatoes, carrots, zucchini, peas and red delicious apples .  

Another thing that Champ is looking forward in getting is this KONG Holiday Jumbler Football Dog Toy.  Of our  two dogs, Champ is the playful one.  He always love to play.  He loves  playing with rubber balls.  So the moment  I  squeeze the ball and it made noise,  he was on it.  

;

This  KONG Holiday Jumbler toy is just what we  need to get Champ in the holiday spirit!  Winter is not only hard for us, people, but it is also hard for  pets because they don't get to do the things that they love to do outside.  They are  indoors most of the times so this jumbler toy is perfect for our Jack Russel Terrier.   It's is a 2-in-1 ball toy for twice the interactive fun. The interior tennis ball and loud squeak entice play, while the handles make pickup and shaking easy. The Jumbler stands up to tough play, making it ideal for games of fetch.   It has the ffestive colors for the holiday season, available in red and green.

Champ actually love to open gifts on Christmas so we decided to wrap this toy for him to open on Christmas day.  It was funny when my daughter was wrapping it in her bedroom, Champ wanted to get inside the room lol.  Below is the short video I recorded of Champ when he was trying to get the ball.

Jammin' Salmon - Chicken and Salmon in Pumpkin Soup #ProductReview

September is International Pet Blogger Month at Chewy.com so I got  another  dog food  for our  fur babies.  This time, I wanted them to try this Weruva's Jammin Salmon, it's a combination of chicken and salmon in a pumpkin soup.  Our dog Champ is very fond of seagood but Bolt is not.  However, they both love chicken so I was hoping hat they would like this as much as they loved the  Beef Stew.

This Jammin Salmon has  boneless, skinless, white breast chicken and wild caught salmon.  It is loaded with Omega-3s for their healthy skin and coat.

It is made with tomatoes, green peas and sweet potato in a pumpkin soup and it is made without added antibiotics or hormones.

What I like is  that, it is grain-free.   As usual, I mixed it in with their dry dog-food.  When introducing new dog food to  our fur babies, I only put a little bit for the first time to   gauge if they like it or not.  

At first, Bolt smelled it and walked away, but when Champ started eating, he came back and started eating his.  I think the smell of the salmon turned him away but later on find out that  it's nothing bad.  He  polished his bowl nd wanting more.  With the three  varieties of  dog food that we got   Champ and Bolt, they love the Beef Stew the most.

Hearty Beef Stew for our Fur Babies from Chewy: Review

Bolt and Champ loved the first  Beef Dinner dog food  by Evangers that I got from chewy.com.   They just consumed all of those  so I got them  new  beef stew by Whole Earth Farm from Chewy as well.  This  beef stew smells so good that it  smells like human  food almost.  As you can see, it has  whole chunk of  real meat.  You can check out its ingredients below.

Our fur babies  does not  like  eating  pure dry dog food so we always   mixed it with  canned dog food.  We don't give them  pure  wet food either because they get the runs so the formula is 50/50 for their system to work  perfectly.  

Bolt (black and brown) will eat dry dog food when he is so hungry but Champ, our JRT, refuses to eat  dry dog food alone.  That's why we always  have canned  dog food.  Now that I know that they love this kinds, these are definitely the brands that we will buy from now on.

Kennel Cancellation, Vacation Cancellation, and Evanger's Dog Food

Having pet is  great especially if you have kids.  It's a great bonding experience  for the whole family.  There is a however a downside to having pets especially if you like to go places.  We booked our dogs to the kennel in March, we had their shots done, and we were ready to go.  We were supposed to leave   this Saturday for our vacation,  until our schedule got derailed.  The Kennel called and informed us that the owner is having  a bypass surgery so they are closing down for a while.  My heart goes to them and I hope that the owner will have a safe  surgery.  The dilemma we had is finding an available kennel to take our dogs in and by this time,, it is impossible.  I tried calling friends as well and asked if they could  watch the dog for us with pay but to no avail.  I got frustrated, had a migraine trying to find a place toboard our dogs but  we didn't find one near the area so we didn't have a choice but to cancel our reservations.  I think that the kennel should have  a back up plan just in case  emnergency like that happen.  I understand that  they didn't plan it but  they should have at least someone continuing their business.  As a result of their cancellation, we cancelled our planned vacation as well and  it cost us since we have to pay a fee to cancel it, sigh.  

On the lighter note, some of you might have read my post  about my daughter's birthday .  Here are some more photos of her with our dogs, Champ (JRT Black and white) and Bolt (Mixed-breed  miniatue and  doberman pinscher).  

When I told the kids that we have to  cancel our  vacation, they got upset but we explained to them what the cisrcumstances are.  The two of them are the ones fighting to keep the dogs.  I am ready to give  the fur babies  for adoption.  I mean, I love dogs  but it is hindering us from doing things.  

They would rather lose the vacation time than lose the dogs. I don't really mind not going on a vacation but I know that my husband really wants too. We might do something later on but for now, I hope my migraine would vanish and leave me alone, it sucks! I get sever migraine when I am stressed out!

Onto another thing, let us talk about the Super Premium Evanger's dog  food.  They were voted the best  pet food in 2014 during the Pet Product News International's  Editor's Choice Award.  They sent me a box of Beef Dinner with spinach and kale for our dogs.  

Their dog food is moist, meaty, and complete meal that are slow cooked in small batches using USA farm grown, human grade ingredients for superior taste and bioavailability.  (05 of their ingredients  are sourced locally, daily and used within 24 hours.  The remaining 10%    comes directly from American Farmers  or US-sourced suppliers. 

Bolt and Champ really love their dog food!  I have  mixed it with  dry dog food and  they clean their bowls every time!  I bet they would love just about any kind of  flavor from their selection.

When you open the  can, it doesn't smell like dog food at all.

Their dog food is available in  different flavors such as Duck and Sweet Potato Chicken Dinner, Lamb and Rice, and the Beef Dinner.

Okay here are Bolt and Champ, wonder what they are thinking?  They want more!

They also sent me two wilderness Wild Chews Knuckle.

I thought for sure that they would dig this right away since they love to chew on chicken bones but I was so surprised that they did not.

For some unknown reason, they just sniffed it and walked away.  

I think it has something to do with the fact that we never gave them big bones like this before. They aren't used to chewing on big bones so they are a little intimidated by its size lol.  The bones are still sitting in our back porch

If you are looking for a great dog food, I highly recommend this  just by judging how much our dogs loved it.  It is made in the USA and no ingredients  is from China so  you are guaranteed that it is  safer and healthier for your fur babies. You can buy the above-mentioned products  at Chewy.com.  They carry over 400 brands of the best pet food and stuff.  They offer free shipping for order $49 and up.
