Score a Dog Ramp - Bow-WOW!
|
Did someone say, car ride? Most dogs leap at the chance - literally. But age, injury and size limitations can make getting in and out of vehicles, especially SUVs, challenging for our canine travel mates. Road trips can be much smoother, thanks to the Solvit™ UltraLite Bi-Fold Pet Ramp. Weighing just 10 pounds and made of durable plastic, this ramp can hold up to 200 pounds of dog. It folds up easily for storage. Arden is giving away one ramp - a $100 value - to the 3rd person to email her with the name of her 60-pound Golden retriever-Husky mix. (Hint - visit the About Arden page on www.fourleggedlife.com. Learn more by visiting www.solvitproducts.com.

Brrrrrr! Keep it Cozy for Your Pet This Winter 
Doggy, and kitty, it's cold outside! Sure, our pets sport coats, sometimes double coats, but just like us, they need to be protected from Mother Nature's icy wrath. Heed these tips from Arden: - Don't eat yellow snow. It is not winter's version of lemonade. Trust me.
- Check under the hood. That 'purr' in your engine could be coming from an outdoor cat seeking refuge from the chill. Bang on your vehicle's hood before starting the engine.
- Be a real paw pleaser. Salt and encrusted ice on sidewalks can cut paw pads. Steer clear of these icy danger zones and always inspect and clean your pet's paws when returning inside.
- Size up the portions. Pets tend to be less active in the winter, so weigh your pet weekly and adjust food servings to keep him at a fit weight. Don't let him turn into a hairy ottoman during the winter months.
- Be a clothes hound. Fit shorthaired breeds like Chihuahuas and Whippets with doggie sweaters to stay warm when venturing outside on walks.
Bonus tip: offer true creature comfort by fitting your pet's bed with a Pet-ZZZ-Pad. This veterinarian-recommended, fleece-covered heating pad maintains a cozy 102 degrees and features a steel, chew-resistant casing for its electric cord. It earns paws up from the American Kennel Club and Cat Fanciers Association. Win a Pet-ZZZ-Pad for your pet by being the 10th to email Arden. It comes in two sizes to fit all pets.
