How To Enjoy The Snowy Season With Your Pets
It’s time to prepare ourselves for winter: the rain, the
snow, the sleet and slippery paws!
Everyone needs good winter gear to keep warm and safe and our
pets are no exception.
Here are a few products I thought were great to keep those
winter blues away.
1.
Heated Water Bowl
Our pets don’t
have a natural instinct to paw through ice, plus could you
imagine your dog’s tongue stuck to a frozen water bowl? To avoid
this painful (yet perhaps slightly amusing) dilemma, get a
heated water bowl for your outside pets.
2.
Heated Bed
While this
product is great at making an outdoor pet feel a bit of luxury,
it’s also good for arthritic pets all year round.
3.
Dog Sweaters and Jackets
They’re not
just for fashion! Short-coated dogs should wear a
weather-resistant coat when outside; and because older dogs are
more susceptible to sickness and arthritis, they, too, can keep
out the cold with a snug sweater.
4.
Spray-On Safe Pet Deicer
This all
natural "veterinarian approved" spray keeps snow from building
up and forming ice balls on your dog’s paws and underbelly. Just
spray and you’re good to go!
5.
Pet ID Tags
It’s easy to
lose track of time when you’re out in the snow, but it’s also
easy to lose track of your pet! A simple ID tag could help
locate a lost or injured pet and make the difference between
life and death.
