Twinkle Twinkle Little Dog Star
Twinkle Twinkle Little Dog Star
There is a dog sweater at Paw Shop that is more than a holiday sweater to keep your dog warm, it's a holiday greeting all on its own!
A dog sweater is a great way to keep your furry friend from feeling the chill of winter winds when you are out visiting the friends during the holiday season or you just want to take your dog out for a walk. You can let him make a holiday statement all his own when he wears a
Twinkling Star Holiday Sweater. This fun sweater will truly light up the faces of anyone that sees your pooch wearing it. Not only is this sweater soft and comfortable; it is made from durable acrylic and is highly detailed with each red turtleneck sweater having a Christmas tree applique with sequined ornaments, bones, and a brightly blinking star!
The star is battery powered and will blink and twinkle for up to 72 hours. The star activates with a twist so if you and your dog aren't in the mood for twinkling or you want to save it for a holiday get together, just twist the star off and it will be ready to twinkle and spread the holiday joy again when you turn it on. The ribbed neck and cuffs on this sweater make it very comfortable for your dog to wear and there is a holiday sweater in nearly every dog's size. To find out your dog's size, just measure from the base of his neck to the base of his tail. Large fits 16"-20" and X-Large fits 20"-24".
Let your dog spread the holiday cheer with this fun sweater at all your holiday gatherings this season!

Pets: Good For Your Health
The majority of us had pets growing up. Nearly everyone has fond memories of the dog that allowed us to put Mom's make up on her or the cat who actually would sit in a stroller and play baby with us. When we felt Mom or Dad had been too hard, the family pet was all ears to listen to our worries and fears.
As an adult, you may own at least one pet and that's a good thing. There's strong scientific evidence that proves that with a pet is of great benefit to adult health, both physical and emotional. Stroking a friendly cat can actually lower your blood pressure, relieve stress and increase one's sense of well-being. Sharing your home with a happy, "so glad you're home" canine is proven to help relieve depression.
Children can learn to be responsible through pets. Many children show their maturity through the care of a pet. If you're thinking about getting a first-time pet or adding to your current zoo that you have at home; please consider adopting a homeless critter from your local animal shelter, especially as November 7th through the 13th is Animal Shelter Appreciation Week and if you do add a furry member to your family, have your pet spayed or neutered to avoid adding to the unwanted animal population. You may have good intentions to keep your female cat inside and it only takes one time for her to get out and you will have a coming litter of kittens on your hands to deal with. Get your new pet
a collar just in case a going on walkabout incident happens.
All in all, there's nothing better than having a pet in your life. They will benefit both yourself and your family's good health along with providing hours and hours of entertainment for the whole family.

Taking Your Pet to Holiday Functions
If you're like most people, your pet is as big of a part of your family as your children and spouse. When holiday time rolls around, you will most likely loathe the thought of leaving your pets behind to go visit family and friends or boarding your pet where they get lonely and sometimes catch illnesses from other pets being boarded.
First of all, make sure the host of your gathering is okay with your request to bring along the family pet or pets and then make sure your pets are well behaved enough to take to a family gathering. No one wants to be around badly behaved children or ill-behaved pets.
You can make short time training your pet by taking him out in a carrier such as an over the shoulder carrier. These carriers have mesh sides and a clip inside to secure your pet so that he can't jump out and cause injury to himself or others. Bring along some treats and talk soothingly to your pet and when he remains calm, reward him with a treat. He will quickly learn that being calm brings great rewards and many pets wind up jumping into their carriers and look forward to going out with their owners.
Groom your dog, get him a shiny new collar and take him to your family function in style in an
over the shoulder dog carrier and know that your pet will be better behaved than many people's children!

Decluttering the Kitchen
If you are sick and tired of dealing with that huge bag of dry dog food and you'd love a way to keep it out of the way, there is help for your dilemma!
Use a little wall space in your kitchen area and get a
Wall Mounted 3-Cannister Dry Food Storage & Dispenser. This unit will keep your dry dog food out of the way. If you have a cat in your family as well, this is an ideal place to keep their dry food too. The cannisters seal airtight and will keep dry food fresher than other methods of storages and lot fresher than just leaving the food in the bag.
Each cannister is fifteen inches high, sixteen inches wide and nearly six inches in diameter so you get a lot of storage space in one compact item. Each cannister will easily hold a regular 13oz bag of food. If you have coffee beans or other dry goods, these cannisters are also ideal for holding those items as well. There is a handy removable measuring cup at the bottom of each dispenser for accurate measuring of portions.
When it's time to clean your cannister set, they are top rack dishwasher safe and are very easy to assemble. These handy cannisters were even awarded the Cooking Club of America's Member Tested and Recommended Seal of Approval.
If you're looking for a way to get the pet food off the floor and keep it fresh for your pets while keeping spillage to a minimum; this handy cannister set will solve your dilemma while also looking nice on your walls.
