Autumn Is A Fun Time Of The Year, Keep Dog Safety In Mind.

Autumn is a busy and fun time of the year for many of us with kids being back at school, Halloween around the corner and plenty of other autumn activities happening everywhere.

Don’t forget your dog’s safety during this season, here are few tips to keep in mind:

• Remember to keep fido warm! Shorter haired dogs should wear coats or sweaters and longer haired dogs shouldn’t be shaved down to the skin.
• Mushrooms are popping up, keep your pets away from them! Fall is mushroom season, and while 99% are not toxic, 1% are. 
• Oh no, snakes! Snakes prepare to hibernate in the fall so stay clear, they’re not in the best of moods!
• Keep school supplies tucked away! Crayons, glue sticks, pencils and magic markers are toxic, be sure to keep them tucked away!

Happy (almost) autumn!

Host The Ultimate Pet Paw-ty For Your Furry Friends!

Summers are fun AND the perfect time to celebrate just about anything! If you’re someone who enjoys planning parties and casual soirees with friends and family, why not let pets be in on the fun too?

Planning and prepping a PAW-TY can be done (almost) lickety-split.

Here are a few ideas: 

• Let the waterworks begin! Grab a kid’s pool and let all of those four legged beasts in! Remember to always keep an eye on your pets and ensure that proper safety practices are in place.
• Doggie loot bags are always great fun! You can include healthy treats and toys that are safe to play with.
• If you have a big yard, provide some space for pets to run! Leaves time for a little chit chatting amongst the grown up humans.

Remember to always have fun. Enjoy the rest of your summer!

TOP 5 Reasons Why Dogs Are Good For Your Health!

Owning a pet can be a life changer. The relationship that develops between a dog and its owner grows and develops as years go by. We can learn a lot from dogs such as loyalty, friendship and how to take care  of ourselves and others. Just like humans, dogs feel emotion. Their loyalty, intelligence, devotion and affection are incredibly rewarding and for dog owners, nothing could be more enjoyable than a long walk in fresh air with our pets or relaxing at home in each other’s company.

Owning a dog can be great for your health. Here are 5 reasons why:

• You spend more time outdoors. This forces most us to get away from our devices, computers and TVs and get outside enjoying long walks and runs with our furry pals.
• You become more social. If you’re feeling a little isolated, getting out talking and meeting other dog owners is a rewarding and refreshing experience.
• Learn to relax. If yoga or meditation isn’t exactly your thing, being with your dog during downtime can relax the noggin’ and stimulate calmness.
• Practice patience. If patience isn’t your forte, playing with your dog or teaching them tricks is a lesson in patience. Try it, the rewards are endless.
• Become physically fit. If the gym or busy fitness outlets turn you completely off, running or taking brisk walks with your dog can get you (and fido) into shape in no time!

It’s spring! Get outside and enjoy that springtime air!

Keep Your Furry Friends Happy. Pet Trends For 2015.

Trends. Whether you follow them or not, they come and they go. We often don’t know what to make of them. Should we follow? Pay attention? Trends can be fun to test and try out as ridiculous as some may seem.

What’s on the plate for 2015 as far as pets go?

Here’s what we’ve come across recently, in case you were curious!

Dog Resorts. These locales are created specifically for pet owners who need a place to send their furry friends during the day while at work, or overnight while at play. These places offer new takes on kennel care and offer a more luxurious, sociable experience for pets. 

Natural High End Pet Foods. Many new trendy boutique style pet shops are carrying high-end, all natural food products such as baked treats and canned wet food. These items have little to no preservatives and aren’t necessarily lackluster or bland either. The ingredients and formulas have been perfected compared to some of the offerings of the past. If you’re a health nut, following the same nutritional path for your furry friends is definitely the way to go.

Natural Holistic Grooming Products. Now it may seem a bit ridiculous however holistic grooming products are coming up the ranks such as blueberry dog facials and anti-itch oatmeal based sprays. Again, if you see a product you wouldn’t dare try on your own person, apply that same thinking when it comes to your precious pets.

Upscale Spa Services. Ever thought about taking your pet to a dog spa? How about a massage? They are out there!

Self-Serve Dog Wash. Self-serve dog washes are hugely popular. Just imagine not turning your bathroom into a disaster zone each time you have to wash your pooch!

Not all of these trends may appeal to everyone but they sure can be fun!

Wags and wiggles all around, happy 2015!

Ruckus Dog A Hit At The One Of A Kind Show 2014!

We went in, we set up AND we gave it! The One Of A Kind show this year was not only so much fun BUT Ruckus Dog had a wag wailin’ great time meeting fellow show peeps and connecting with a whole bunch of new faces!

 

 

Our booth was just the right size, showcasing our wall of breed specific dog leash and collar hangers as well as other assorted goodies.

 

 

One of the best parts, we had friends show up to say HELLO!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AND we managed to come up with some new product ideas and designs while we were in the midst of yipping with curious Ruckus Dog newbies!

We have to say, this was definitely one of our best shows and we’ll definitely be doing it again!

Breed specific leash and collar hangers.
