Wellness Pet Food CORE grain-free Protein Bar Treats Review & Giveaway (8/1)

*I was provided with Wellness CORE protein bar treats. All opinions are my own.
I've learned a lot about dog food and treat ingredients in the last year since I brought Frank & Beans home. I've learned that there is a really big range in the quality of ingredients in treats depending on what brand and type you purchase. Some of the features that I look for in dog food and treats are made in the USA, grain-free, protein listed first on the ingredients, no by-products, no corn, and pronounceable Read more [...]
Milo’s Kitchen Dog Treats Review & Giveaway Including $25 Visa (7/31)

Dog Weight Loss Story – Nerissa’s Search For Her #PerfectWeight

A few weeks ago, I mentioned in a blog post that I had learned how serious it can be for dogs to be even a pound or two overweight. The Human To Pet Weight Comparison Tool really opened my eyes. I had been told that my pugs were probably a couple of pounds overweight, but at the time I didn't realize how serious it was.
For most dogs, their total body weight is much smaller than ours, so an extra 2 or 3 pounds is a much higher percentage of their overall weigh than that kind of weight gain Read more [...]
