18 June 2015Today thanks to Chewy.com - the best and most well known online pet food, treats and goodies store I am reviewing Wellness TruFood CocoChia Bakes with Lamb, Purple Carrots & Coconut Oil Grain-Free Dog Treats. This is the first time that "I" the Denny dog have done a review all by myself. (Mom says it is because Reilly still can't have crunchy cookies yet)
Here's the Basics
- Wellness believes in giving pets a colorful palette of the best nutrition possible, so they made TruFood with whole foods from farm, field and sea. TruFood has more of what pets need to be vibrant and happy - that's how love becomes Wellness. When you treat with chia seeds and whole-prey protein, your dog gets more than just a tasty reward. These slow-baked TruFood CocoChia Bakes combine whole-prey protein with antioxidant-rich superfoods, probiotics, coconut oil and of course chia seeds to deliver a nutritious treat
- 5 oz bag is normally $5.99 at Chewy.com
Key Benefits
- 100% natural dog treats
- A naturally grain-free snack
- Slow-baked for more raw protein
- Naturally colored by superfoods
- No artificial flavors, colors or preservatives
 |
| You can't have these Reilly! |
 |
| Sniff sniff - they smell a bit odd |
Ingredients
- Chickpeas, Peas, Tapioca, Lamb, Dried Purple Carrots, Flaxseed, Coconut Oil, Chia Seeds, Turkey Liver, Turkey Hearts, Chicken Fat, Natural Flavor, Mixed Tocopherols added to preserve freshness, Dried Enterococcus thermophilus Fermentation Product, Dried Lactobacillus bulgaricus Fermentation Product, Rosemary Extract, Green Tea Extract, Spearmint Extract (this is a naturally preserved product)
Taste Test
 |
| NO MOM - I don't like the smell of these! |
- In all fairness I will admit that "I" the Denny dog am not fond of hard cookies - I will sometimes eat them but not very often and these are very hard cookies. Mom offered me one and I sniffed it and wouldn't take it. She then broke it up into pieces and I turned away when she offered it me. Now I can be pretty stubborn about trying new things so Mom even popped a little in my mouth and I promptly SPAT it out. No - no way did I like the smell or flavor of these cookies and I was NOT going to eat one.
Negatives - Kind of - Sort of - Maybe - Not Really
- These are nice small square cookies which would be a great training treat if you like them
- For me - I just didn't like the smell of them or the flavor
- Mom crumbled one up for Reilly today and he gobble it down but there is not much Reilly won't eat :)
Rating
- Sadly I have to give these a no paws ratings cause I just didn't like them all.

15 June 2015Today thanks to Chewy.com - the best and most well known online pet food, treats and goodies store we are reviewing Solid Gold Hund-n-Flocken Lamb, Brown Rice & Barley Recipe Canned Dog Food. As many of you know I recently had 4 teeth removed and needed to be on soft food for a week while my gums healed. Chewy.com was wonderful and sent me 12 cans of this wonderful food to get me through it.
Here's the Basics
- The first dog food Solid Gold ever crafted has a special place in the hearts of Solid Gold fans and so does the wet dog food variety of this formula! The holistic and natural ingredients (and the funny-sounding name) were inspired by Solid Gold founder Sissy McGill. Your dog will feast on tender, delicious lamb. Every bowl is a well-balanced meal packed with high-density protein and whole grain brown rice
 |
| Nice and chunky |
 |
| Me and my puffy nose :) |
Key Benefits
- Perfect to pair with Hund-n-Flocken dry dog food or to be fed as a standalone diet
- Nutritionally complete and balanced meal
- Holistic food for adult dogs of all sizes
- No corn, wheat or soy which are common allergens for dogs
- No fillers, by-products, artificial coloring, flavoring or preservatives
- Made in the US
Taste Test
- Now I must admit I TOTALLY loved this food and licked the bowl clean over and over again (until I drove Mom crazy and she picked it up to wash it) It is a nice solid food and had carrots in it which even I ate and I am known for not eating veggies!
 |
| Mom said I could I have 1 piece - I went for the big one! |
 |
| This is cruel - let me at it :) |
Ingredients
- Lamb, Water Sufficient for Processing, Lamb Liver, Brown Rice, Carrots, Barley, Guar Gum, Potassium Chloride, Dicalcium Phosphate, Oatmeal, Alfalfa Meal, Flaxseed Meal, Olive Oil, Salt, Carrageenan, Cassia, Choline Chloride, Zinc Sulfate, Ferrous Sulfate, Vitamin E Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Copper Sulfate, Sodium Selenite, Manganese Sulfate, Niacin Supplement, Calcium Panthothenate, Biotin Supplement, Folic Acid, Thiamine Mononitrate, Vitamin A Supplement, Riboflavin Supplement, Calcium Iodate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Vitamin D3 Supplement
Negatives - Kind of - Sort of - Maybe - Not Really
- Now Mom was a bit worried about giving me canned food as it not something I have ever had before and she remembers how many of the 'old' types of canned dogs food had a laxative affect on doggies. She was very happy to find this was NOT the case with this food and she loved that it was solid and chunky and could be cut into cubes for me. Denny also got to try a little of this in his food and he too totally loved it!
Rating
- I am definitely giving this food a high 4 paws as it is totally delicious and I was able to eat it with no problems. We would highly recommend this for older dogs who have lost some teeth and may be having trouble with harder types of foods.
- Chewy.com sent us 12 cans of Solid Gold Hund-n-Flocken Lamb, Brown Rice & Barley Recipe Canned Dog Food in return for an honest review. We were not paid or compensated in any other way and our opinion is purely our own.

Taste Test
Well needless to say we LOVED it. Sojos is such an easy meal to make for us doggies. For us in particular we love that there is no poultry in any of these new foods which means we got to sample all 3 !
Positives and Negatives
One of the things we love about Sojos is that it is the perfect food. It has everything you need in one small serving and it is also easy to take when traveling. We get a perfect meal that doesn't take up a lot of room and we can have a variety of flavors too. The only negative to us is just the waiting time - our noses are twitching in anticipation and we drove Mom crazy woofing and telling her to hurry up but it well worth the wait.
Rating
We definately give this an 8 paw rating - it is so good we kept going back to lick out our bowls for 15 minutes after we finished our dinner!
Giveaway
Ms Kira from Sojos also says one lucky blog buddy will get to try new Sojos Wild™ for free - how cool is that! Just leave us a message telling us which flavor you would like to try. We will use random.org to pick a lucky winner and Ms Kira will send you a packet of the food of your choice. Sorry but the giveaway is only available to residents of the USA this time.

Today thanks to Chewy.com - the best and most well known online pet food, treats and goodies store we are reviewing the new FURminator dual sided brushHere are the basics
A well groomed pet is a happy, healthy pet. But, there are many reasons that frequent visits to your pet stylist aren't always possible. With FURminator's new line of professional quality grooming tools, you can get near professional results at home. The FURminator is currently on sale at Chewy.com for $9.94
Key Benefits of the FURminator Brush
- Helps remove mats, tangles and loose hair
- Features a pin brush on one side and bristle brush on the other
- Pin brush works on long coated dogs
- Nylon bristle brush is an excellent all round brush that can be used on almost any coat type
- Removes debris from short coated dogs
- Finishes the coat and creates a natural shine for long coats
- Designed to follow the natural contours of pet's head and body
- The handle was very good - it gave excellent ergonomic grip and control
- Sadly we didn't find this particular brush very useful for our type of thick double coated long fur.
- It didn't go through our coats
- It didn't remove much hair
- The cover was a very poor design and wouldn't click or stay together
- Mr Reilly didn't like the feel of this brush at all
We will have to give this only a 1 paw rating for the ergonomic designed handle

Today thanks to Chewy.com - the best and most well known online pet food, treats and goodies store we are reviewing Evanger's Freeze Dried Beef TripeHere's the Basics

Because of the palatability and wholesomeness of these treats, they are excellent for finicky pets or pets with food sensitivities, as well as for use as a training reward or food mixer..

- Both Denny and I could barely wait for Mom to open the tub - and when she did our noses were twitching like crazy because if there is one thing we love is crunchy dried beef tripe.
- The treats are freeze dried which gives then a nice crunchy texture but it is an easy crunch that even little teeth (like Dweeb has) can manage. There are all different sizes in the tub and they can be broken into smaller bits but personally we like the BIG pieces. Mom does admit she had trouble breaking them but that is simply because of the arthritis in her hands - Dad just snapped them easily - booooooo.
Ingredients
- Beef Tripe, Beef Tripe, Beef Tripe, Beef Tripe - and absolutely nothing else
Negatives - Kind of - Sort of - Maybe - Not Really
- Not a one - we totally loved them. Mom also wanted to mention that they don't have any smell which she liked a lot as she remembers when she was a wee puppy her Mom use to eat Tripe and Onions and Mom would spend the day outside as she hated the smell - and no - Mom never tried it - she doesn't know what she is missing out on !!!!!!
Rating
- Definitely a 8 paw rating (that is 4 paws from each of us)

19 September 2014We were recently asked by Viva La Dog Spa to do a review of some of their products. We were sent a bottle of Gold Medal Whitening Shampoo and a container of Doggie Facial Wipes (We will review those later). Now as you can guess - the Dweeb and I were not to happy about this particular review - not because of the product but because we HATE, LOATHE, DETEST and just plain don't like baths. But being the brave doggies we are (and the constant bribing with cookies) we stoically undertook the task.
Here are the Basics
- Great for both dogs and cats, Gold Medal Whitening Shampoo is specially formulated to brighten white coats and highlight all coat colors while gently cleansing.
Key Benefits
- Gold Medal Pets with Cardoplex is a REVOLUTIONARY dog shampoo developed to wash and dry your pets faster, so bathing is easier, more enjoyable and less stressful for everyone.
- The Cardoplex system is a unique proprietary trade secret that will wash, rinse and dry faster. Whether an owner air, towel, or blow dries the will notice a definite difference. These formulas incorporate fruit acids, vitamins and fast-acting proteins to aid in water sheeting off the pet’s coat quickly and easily.
- Pro-vitamin B-5 is a moisturizing ingredient that adds luster and shine to the pet coat, as well as thickens the hair, which helps prevent future damage. Other extracts may be used in formulas to condition, moisturize, and protect the coat, and add luster and shine.
Wash Test
- We really like the purple color of the shampoo as it makes it so easy to see where you washed and if you have missed any spot. It lathers really well and washes off easily.
- It really did help to dry our fur a lot faster than normal.
- It has a nice light scent
 |
| Mom - I can't believe you are showing this |
 |
| I'm a soggy doggy ! |
Ingredients
- Gold Medal is a thick, rich shampoo that cleans, brightens and highlights white coats and dark coats without the use of harmful chemical optical brighteners. Gold Medal base contains special Hydrolyzed Wheat Proteins in a unique hydrating complex that combines moisture-balancing and film-forming properties. These ingredients work synergistically to provide maximum manageability to the animal's coat. Chamomile extract is essential to the formula as a natural moisturizing agent. Gold Medal Shampoo also contains Panthenol (Pro-vitamin B-5), which promotes retention of moisture, improves manageability, adds body and conditions a damaged coat. Panthenol also contributes to a fuller and more luxurious shine.
Negatives - Kind of - Sort of - Maybe - Not Really
- The shampoo did do an excellent job of whitening our coats and also made them feel very soft and silky.
- One thing I did notice though is that it really dried out Reilly's skin - now in all fairness he has very dry skin due to his allergies but he looked liked he had a bad case of dandruff after he dried off and was scratching a lot.
- It didn't affect Denny at all and didn't dry his skin out in any way.
Rating
- Reilly will give this product a two paws rating - it was a nice shampoo but just not good for him with his dry skin.
- Denny will give it a 4 paws rating as it really did make his coat very bright and soft.

14 June 2014Today thanks to Chewy.com - I THE DENNY am getting to do a review all by myself. See the other day Mom was mowing the lawn on the "Red Beastie" (ride on lawnmower) when she ran over my most favorite ball - it was devastating !!!!!!!!!! Now admittedly with all the rain we have had the grass was so long she didn't see it but she heard it as it squeaked it's final squeak, flew around under the mower and then got spit out and hit the fence in bright yellow fuzzy pieces. I know - the details are gory ....and I think I am still in shock!
Well thankfully Chewy.com and Mr Andrew came to the rescue because one of this months review items was "Planet Dog" balls. Mom quickly sent an email and said we would be happy to review a the new Orbee-Tuff Sport Ball.
Here Are The Basics
- Durable
- Buoyant
- Minty flavored
- Bouncy
- Has space for treats inside
- Made in the USA
- Cost $9.95 (Sale Price)
The Play Test
Now this looks like a tennis ball but it isn't fuzzy and I was a bit
Mom pondered for a moment - then she washed the ball and rubbed it all over ME ! What kind of strange ball game is this oh my DOG ...I didn't like that at all !!!!!
BUT - then Mom did something totally AMAZING with it - she put YUMMY treats inside it..... nice smelly stinky salmon treats - my most favorite and that Orbee ball suddenly became irresistible ! Mom would throw it and I would chase it and little bits of freeze dried salmon would fall out - what a wonderful magical ball it is.
Positives
I do like this one being a soft rubber - it means I can leave it outside and it won't get soggy when it rains. Of coarse it might get run over with the "Red Beastie" if I do that.
Rating
Now as much as I LOVE playing with this ball - I am only going to give it 3 paws rating. It loses a point because it doesn't squeak and I love me a good squeaky ball and also because the treat section seems like a good idea - but it is so small that it is hard to find treats small enough to go in it and if you crumble treats up small enough to fit - they also fall straight back out again. Now even though I am a BIG STRONG boy - I found this ball is also a bit to heavy for my little mouth.

Mom fell in love with the Plaid Bowtie and Plaid Neck Tie and Miss Amy kindly sent one of each for ME and the Dweeb (Denny). First we tried on the Bow Tie - we got a Large for me and a Small for Denny. They have a little white collar behind the bow tie and they tie on with a nice long silk ribbon so they are very comfortable to wear.

We thought the prices were AMAZING!! Our bow tie and tie are normally only $7.99 but are on special at the moment for only $4.99. Tail Trends has regular discounts and will be having a special for today (Cyber Monday) and for Christmas.

23th August 2013
Today thanks to Chewy.com we are reviewing Orijen's Regional Freeze Dried Dog Food. Note - this is a dog food and not a treat and what is shown is a sample bag.The test began with Mom trying to read the instructions - trying being the operative word as the print was so tiny that even with her glasses on it was hard to read. Mom eventually got the magnifying glass out. Hopefully on the larger bags it is easier to read.
Okay - break the pattie (which looks and smells remarkably like poop) into quarters and add 1/4 cup of warm water. Wait 3-5 minutures until softened. We waited - and waited and waited - after 20 minutes it still hadn't softened. Mom decided to try boiling water instead of warm water and we waited again and waited and waited. Another 20 minutes and only the very outside was soft - the inside was still hard.
Now in all fairness - I loved the smell - my nose was twitchin and sniffin but Mom had to take the bowls outside as the smell was making her feel queasy. It is pretty stinky but as you know we doggies love anything that is stinky.
Here's the basics
