Fur Fun

Well Made and Fun For my Fur Baby                                                                        



My puppy dog loves these toys!
So far he hasn't destroyed any.
I have only given him a few to play with and I hold some back for later, for rotation.
He loves playing fetch but also enjoy keep away or hide and seek.
Also makes great gifts to have some spares for his doggy friends.

UEETEK Pack of 8 Squeaky Dog Toys Pet Plush Chew Toys for Puppies Small Dogs 

Keeps My Dog Safe

Perfect for vinyl seats.

This keeps your pet safe and not slipping and sliding all over the place on a vinyl seat.

Looks so nice, you can order two so the driver has a trendy cover too.

Alternatively if you have a pet that shed, this will keep your upholstery clean.

You can remove this one and toss it in the washing machine as needed.

Very handy.

Cute idea.

Doesn't get hot like vinyl seats do in the sunshine.

Compact Rechargeable Unit Makes This Handy

This is for medium to large dogs.
It's not a substitute for good hard work, training your dog.
If you beast is pretty furry you may need to have the vet or groomer trim the fur on their neck while you train them.
This has vibration and audible sounds. It comes with a diminutive remote.
Both are rechargeable.
The dog can go out of range, so it's best to train them first before you let them run wild.

Waterproof Rechargeable Flashlight Weighing Less Than 5 Ounces

This is a great little waterproof light. It comes with a cord for recharging.

Super handy to have a builtin rechargeable battery.

I have to walk my doggy rain or shine, and sometimes after dark. Having a waterproof light is awesome.

Not having to buy batteries mean doggy's allowance goes a lot further. This means toys for him and he loves his toys.

I like that it has a magnet on one end and a hook on the other end.

Perfect for camping, Rving, dog walking. It's fairly small so you can pack it in your purse or pocket.

Makes a fantastic gift or stocking stuffer.

I give it five bright stars for being eco-friendly and functional.

Fabulous Food My Fur Baby Loves For Breakfast

My fur baby loves his Cesar's food. He eats half of one each morning for breakfast. The rest of the day he prefers dry food.
CESAR Classics Meat Flavored Adult Wet Dog Food Trays

The 36 pack last him 72 days, or about two and a half months. Getting it on subscribe and save with other products gets him an extra 15% off. So it's a win win situation for both of us.

He used to have dry wiry fur, now it's not so dry, though it's still wiry and sticks out at odd angles. I hope they keep this 36 pack around, it's handy to buy and store.

Cesars gives him loads of energy to play Frisbee and fight with his teddy bears as well as trot around the block a few times.

We travel in a tiny motorhome. Cesars is easy to store so no matter where we are, we have his food on hand.

Nothing like having a fence delivered to your door. This came in a nice neat roll in a box at a great price.

Garden Zone 48x50 Green Vinyl 3x2 16-Gauge Garden Fence

We didn't need poles because we were attaching it to a ramshackle existing fence that was about 4 feet tall and this was 48 inches tall, so it fit beautifully. It's sturdy, well made, vinyl coated, seems like it is built to last. We used green zip ties to attach the new fence to the old fence. It blended in nicely yet made the fencing surprisingly sturdy.

We used  Gardner Bender 46-308G Cable Tie, 8 Inch., 75 lb. Tensile Strength, Wire / Cord Management Industrial and Household Use, Nylon Zip Tie, 100 Pk., Green for attaching our fence. The colors were close and it blended right in. Zip ties make for fast work in putting up a fence in just a few hours.

Handy Snap Rings

10PCS Aluminum Carabiner Clip 2 inch (2")/5 cm - Durable D Shape Carabiner for Home RV Camping Fishing Hiking Traveling Backpack and Keychain - Gift for dad - child - adult.





10PCS Aluminum Carabiner Clip 2 inch (2")/5 cm - Durable D Shape Carabiner for Home RV Camping Fishing Hiking Traveling Backpack and Keychain - Gift for dad - child - adult.

These D rings are super useful. 

My small active dog wears a vest type harness that attaches with velcro across his back. To hook in his leash, there are two rings, one on each side of the vest. Once those are both hooked into his leash, then he is safe to walk outside on his leash. If he is rambunctious, the two rings attached to the leash keep him firmly inside his harness so he can't get loose and out in traffic. 

Now with these new carabiner 2 inch rings, I can just hook one to the rings on his vest. When I am ready to walk him, it's much easier to snap the leash on. The aluminum is so lightweight he doesn't even notice the extra hardware. 

At the other end of his leash around the handle, I attach one of these D rings with my house key when I take him out  walking to do his lumps and leaks. 

I have one of those day packs for hiking that holds my camera, phone and water bottle. It has straps on ithe utility bag where these D rings can be easily affixed for light weight items. I use these D rings  to connect my soft sleeve zippered sunglass case, my vehicle key, and my little compass. Each item has it's own carabiner. Because these are aluminum rather than heavier steel the added weight is minimal.

Dull Blades and Design Didn't Work For Me or My Dog

This was a disaster for me and my dog.

Safari Mat Remover for Dog
Safari Mat Remover for Dog

Mine arrived with super dull blades. It did a great job of tangling up my dog's fur without cutting or removing any mats at all. We both hated it and with the dull blades, it was hopeless.

I had to return mine for refund.

My dog is 6 pound terrier chihuahua mixed mutt.

I have included his picture to show you it did not work on his type of fur.


At the urging of my dog, I used the refund to buy him toys.

Fantastic Water Everyone Should Look Into Owning This System


The review below was written February 2014. As of March 2017, I am EXTREMELY pleased with my Berkey's performance. My health has enjoyed a great deal of improvements in many areas. Amazing what purified water can do for one. I do not trust bottled water one bit! It's not regulated and you have zero control over what's in it. The endless water bottles are clogging up our landfills and I see them littered liberally all over our beautiful countryside. 

I personally use a stainless steel water water bottle (flask) that I can refill from home thousands and thousands of times. I also use stainless steel drinking tumblers in my motorhome. Stainless steel is safe, non-toxic, unbreakable and free from BPA. As a bonus, you can store the stainless steel cups in the freezer (where I keep mine) so you always have icy cold drinks.After removing from the freezer,  I shove mine in a cozy cup so they are insulated and don't leave water rings when I set them down. 

My original review of the fantastic Berkey water purifier is posted below. If you don't own this, you aren't living right. Our bodies (and our pets) need good healthy water. Go green and be kind to mother nature. Stop buying bottled water and purify your own for drinking and cooking. Improve the health of you and your pets. 

Berkey BT2X2-BB Travel Stainless Steel Water Filtration System with 2 Black Filter Elements
Berkey Water Purifiers Come In Assorted Sizes
I own the one on the far left, which is 
18 inches high with a diameter of 7.5 inches

First off, do the math. This system will save you money. The filters in the one I bought last about 6,000 gallons, if I use 2 gallons per day for drinking and cooking, that works out to a filter life of over 8 years. I wanted quality stainless steel and was prepared to return this unit immediately if anything at all was flimsy about it. I have been vagabonding in a mini-motorhome for 4 years, so I need quality products that can stand up to the rigors of travel.

Water quality in the areas I travel varies widely, so this filter system will get a good workout over the years. There are times I camp remotely and the ability to filter water from natural sources that may or may be contaminated is awesome. I'm not expecting a major disaster, but I've lived overseas in a disaster zone and this would have been a coveted treasured item to have had then.

I ordered direct from Amazon because I've been a devoted fan of Amazon for many years. They have always been extremely attentive and prompt on solving issues on returns of faulty products. This one arrived well packed and in excellent shape. The directions are a bit clumsy, they could do so much better, but after a day of reading and rereading, I finally figured it all out.

I was extremely impressed with the stainless steel. It's heavy, shiny, quality stuff built for lifetime use. A super 5 stars on the quality. Follow the instructions carefully, it's a bit fussy to get the filters primed and all set up. At first mine filtered super slow, maybe I didn't prime it right. I kept tossing out the initial water filtration's per the instructions, so that it was almost a week from arrival until I started actually drinking the water. In the interim I continued with my old Brita pitcher. I have no beefs with Brita, they've been good to me and my health for decades, but Berkey is superior so bye bye Brita. Also, no need to buy filters every month, a huge relief. I never liked the plastic pitchers Brita supplies because they always look crazed no matter how delicately you clean and polish them.

After starting on the Berkey water, I am delighted over and over. The taste is HEAVEN ON EARTH! The water quality after filtering is just fantastic. Even though I've been filtering with Brita for 30 years, I could tell a difference in my coffee and green tea as well as plain water drinking.

I did tons of research on water filtration. I can't afford the ridiculous plastic bottled water. 90% or more of the cost goes to the plastic bottle and the rest to the water. I have no idea where or how they bottled that water, the landfills are overflowing with a a zillion water bottles, it's estimated that less than 10% are actually recycled. I volunteer for 5 months per year picking up litter in public parks, the mountain of water bottles I find tossed in the bushes is absolutely astounding. The same people that love nature, seem to also enjoy trashing it. Even crazier are the folks who throw out half full water bottles.

I have my own reusable bottles to take with me hiking and biking, I would never go buy someone else's water, I have to have my own Berkey filtered water. Good clean tasting water is a daily treat. Amazingly, I was having some health issues, they cleared up right away, whether by coincidence or maybe I was lapsing on changing out my Brita filters often enough. Now I don't have to worry for at least 8 more years before buying replacement filters.

I have used Brita water filter pitchers for about 30 years. But I was concerned that I failed to change my filters often enough. I never liked the plastic pitchers, they crazed super easily

So now it's Berkey all the way. I even managed to build my Berkey into a lower cabinet under the sink in the motorhome that is still a foot off the floor due to the air exchanger beneath the cabinet.This is perfect for dispensing the filtered water. I am able to refill the top with the pull-out kitchen faucet but the Berkey is lashed into the cabinet, so that when I go bouncing down the highways, the Berkey won't go dancing.

I bought the Rubbermaid 2 quart clear carafe (from Amazon) for storing filtered water on my counter top since the Berkey is built into my cabinet. That is one good looking carafe with a super tight lid. The opening in the lid is perfect for draining out the filtered Berkey water into the Carafe. The carafe is a beautiful addition to a dinner table or a party where delicious water is desired. I make my ice from the filtered water too, I can add ice to the carafe for dinner parties or for hot days when I am working inside and outside. To me, the carafe makes a perfect addition to the Berkey. Also, it allows me to drain out the Berkey, then refill the top without worry of overflowing.

LOVE MY BERKEY! If the RV is on fire, you will see me run out the door carrying the dog in one hand and the Berkey in the other. He loves the Berkey water in his water bowl too.

This is Just Paw-fect For Doggy Adventures!

This is Just  Paw-fect For Doggy Adventures!

Dog Treat Training Pouch Bag, Carry Treats Toys, Poop Bag Dispenser, 1 Roll Poop Bags, Reflective Lining Stitching, Adjustable Waist Belt, Over the Shoulder Strap, Metal Belt Clip, Zippered Pockets

This pouch is very nicely made with sturdy stitching and a wide assortment of options such as:
Dog Treat Training Pouch Bag, Carry Treats Toys, Poop Bag Dispenser, 1 Roll Poop Bags, Reflective Lining Stitching, Adjustable Waist Belt, Over the Shoulder Strap, Metal Belt Clip, Zippered Pockets

The nifty poop bag dispenser
A big squeeze clip for putting it on your belt
A wide comfy strap to wear it around your waist with a snap hook
An option shoulder strap with swivel hooks
A zippered pocket
A mesh pocket a front
A straw string to keep the treats and toys inside
The reflective straps are a nice bonus

My doggy requires a lot of paraphernalia to go on his outings and this bag is able to hold his favorite rubber ball, treats, his collapsible water bowl, his poop baggies plus I am able to use the zippered pouch for keys and ice cream money.

The vendor thoughtfully included a roll of poop bags.

I gave this 5 sloppy dog kisses. It's evident that a great deal of intelligent thought went into making this product.

Awesome Leash That Uses a Smooth Tape, Not A Dangerous Cord

I've been using this leash a few weeks with a super active small dog.

It's nice and long for hiking on trails so the dog has room to roam around yet still be attached to his pet parent. The brake has to be pushed down then forward. Very important to remember this.

The handle is nice and big which makes it comfy for me. I can even wear gloves and still fit my hand inside the handle. My friend with much bigger hands was able to use this to walk my dog too, so that is all good.

The metal spring clip that attaches to the dog's harness or collar is about medium sized, not too small but not real big either. I am a big confused from the listing whether this is for a 44 pound or 110 pound dog, maybe they meant 44 kg or 110 pounds but that doesn't quite convert right either as 44kg is 97 pounds.

Either way it works with my super active dog.

One thing I truly like about this leash is that it uses a sturdy tape not a cord. The cord leashes are an absolute nightmare! If someone is walking their dog on a cord leash and they tangle with your bare legs such as when wearing shorts, heaven help you as the cord will rip right through your flesh. I've had that happen from someone else's flimsy cord leash.

You won't have that problem with this leash, because the tape is very smooth and non-cutting on bare skin.

The spring for the tape is pretty powerful so take care when you want to pull it in if the dog is not attached. Be sure to use both hands when using the spring to reel in the leash without a dog on the other end.

So far I am super happy with this retractable leash.

Warning Super Cute Dog Video

Handy little pump for blowing up all your toys.

This will inflate beach balls, play balls, sport balls, beach toys and balloons. though you have to grab it quick and et that knot in fast.

I like that it's small and compact. It's become a must have for my dog. Yepper, the dog loves it and doesn't even know it.

He is a tiny little dog that loves to play with a big ball that is as big as he is. He bounces it off his body then kicks and chases it up and down the beach. Sometimes he tries to grab it with his teeth and we end up with a small puncture and a super sad doggy. Replacing the balls every time he punctures it was getting expensive.

Awesome Bowl My Baby Loves!

My precious baby loves his new bowl. He is 6 pounds of mixed terror. He goes for hikes, bicycle rides, car rides, camping and dog parks. Water on the go is a must for this busy canine.

He often drinks out of the top of my water bottle, the kind with a thick neck, but this means I waste water trying to rinse his slobber or beard fur out of it. Now that he has this cute collapsible bowl, I can just whip it out and put some of my water bottle in it for him.

I like the mini D ring carabiner on it. I use a big carabiner to hold his leash, his poop baggy purse, the keys and now his water bowl. I can just unclip it, pop it open and plop it down.

Two Comfortable Handles Make Dog Leash Versatile


Two Comfortable Handles Make Dog Leash Versatile

Here’s a dog leash that’s built to last and keeps dog and handler comfortable: The Hopy Dog Two Handle Leash. This six foot long dog leash is tough and well made. The nylon webbing is substantial, withstanding over 3100 pounds of pressure. With that strength, this leash can handle the largest of dogs. Its dual handles---one located close to the dog for training or those times when control of the dog is so necessary and the other traditionally located at the end for free range---are both lined with a soft, thick, waterproof fabric for extraordinary comfort to the hands. Furthermore, the heavy duty stitching includes a reflective stitch on both sides of the strap for added safety in the dark. The Hopy Dog leash is sure to be the one leash for all your dog handling needs.
I give the Hopy Dog Leash Five Stars. Its quality is clearly apparent and its heavy nylon strap will take a lot of use, and abuse. The comfort handles are perhaps my favorite feature, though. It sits in the hand well and is soft to the touch, but it’s substantial construction makes it work well. This is a keeper.

I wish the pricing weren't so ridiculous. It's hard to find this on Amazon and in stores. I hope that will be rectified and someone will offer it at a competitive price. I wish they offered the option of selling it in a pump spray rather than aerosol.
