Ace and I received a generous amount of free products from k9cuisine.com, which may or may not have influenced this post
Ace is not a very good reviewer since he will give an A+ to anything he manages to consume (cat turds, Purina One dog food, cigarette butts …). So you’re going to have to trust my judgement instead. And no, I didn’t actually taste the dog food. Ace did the tasting, I did the ...
Well, actually, my dog will eat anything. He has been off prednisone for a year, but the “side effect” of “hunger” never went away.
The only time Ace isn’t interested in food is when we travel. There is too much going on, and he doesn’t want to take the time to eat. God forbid he misses out on someone walking from one room to another.
So, what do I do when Ace won’t eat?
I gi ...
Last week I began switching my dog’s food from Purina One lamb and rice to Nature’s Variety Instinct duck and turkey.
Nature’s Variety Instinct is a grain-free dog food with no by-products. I chose this food because I like that it has a raw option. Eventually I plan to feed Ace raw food several times per week.
My two cats are also eating Nature’s Variety Instinct. It is my responsibility ...

I’ve always fed my mutt and two cats dry food. They’ve eaten a few brands over the years, sometimes natural food, sometimes not.
I feed them dry food for convenience sake – convenience in buying it, storing it and preparing it. It’s consistent. It’s easy. It’s relatively cheap.
After my recent interview with Michelle from Natural Pet Center in Fargo, I thought I’d use some of ...
The best dog food is made from human-grade ingredients with high-quality animal proteins, whole grains, vegetables and is naturally preserved, according to Michelle Smith, owner of Natural Pet Center of Fargo since 2005.

My mutt Ace is one of the fittest dogs I know. He has a naturally lean body, and his sleek coat shows off his frame. He also gets plenty of exercise, and I don’t overfeed him.
People are so used to seeing overweight dogs that they tell me my dog is underweight. It’s no wonder so many of us have fat pets. We don’t even realize they’re fat!
Hide a dog’s obesity under a thick coat of fur, a ...
Ace got some Best Bully Sticks in the mail recently. Of course, he loved them!

Ace rates Best Bully Sticks a 10/10. His only problem was he wanted to eat his bully stick too fast ...
Note: This is a guest post from one of my favorite dog blogs, The Three Dog Blog. Check it out for insight into the ups and downs of living with dogs.
Having now lived with Dogs for over 18 years, I am amazed at all I have learned along the way. I just wish I knew when I was younger what I know now.
The first dog I had lived to a great age of 16 years, but he sure had his fair share of problems along the way. He cost ...
