Top 10 New Year Resolutions for Dog Owners- CLICK HERE!

Here are 10 easy-to-keep resolutions for the New Year. Adopt one or all 10, and you will be on your way to dog heroism.

1. Reduce your pet’s environmental paw-print by choosing recycled, eco-conscious dog chew toys and dog bedding wherever possible.

2. Feed your dog or puppy premium kibble that contains human-grade ingredients, and add the occasional "garnish" of fresh-cooked veggies and/or eggs.

3. Keep your dog’s coat shiny – and give his kibble a dash of gourmet flavor - with a daily dose of antioxidant fish oil supplement for dogs.

4. Groom with gentle, preservative-free dog shampoo containing ingredients that will soothe and moisturize your dog's skin and coat.

5. If your dog has a long coat, make a daily effort to brush and otherwise detangle him, so those irritating mats won’t start forming with a professional grade dog brush.

6. Brush your dog’s teeth with an all-natural toothpaste created just for pets. Think of it not as a chore, but as a form of good-health insurance.

7. Prevent canine weight gain by avoiding crunchy, high-carb dog biscuits and opting instead for high-protein morsels that are soft, chewy, and meaty (not to mention great tasting). If you have an elder dog, support her joints with a tasty nutritional treat.

8. Eliminate ordinary rawhide from your dog’s repertoire and replace it with an equally toothsome veggie alternative that’s got real bite.

9. Keep your animal house clean and green by spot-cleaning your dog's paws with all-natural wipes – you’ll spend less time dusting and more time playing fetch!

10. Select a water bowl made of non-porous ceramic or metal, and be sure it stays full – especially in the chill of winter, when dogs need even more water than in hot weather, to maintain energy levels.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
