First saw this used at a very hot week-long seminar in Mississippi. If the handler had brought extras to the seminar, she could have sold them all by the end of the week.

1. My kennel is inside my truck. I bought the largest size available so I could drape it over the cab of my truck and cover all the windows.

2. Very lightweight and easy to secure using the grommets.

3. Don't need to secure it unless it is really windy. The large size will just drape and stay in place.

4. I like that I can easily move it around as the sun moves through out the day.

5. If you have a hatchback, you can open the hatch and drape it over that to make a nice shady place for you and your dog.

6. Is durable and well made, though I imagine it could get damaged if not secured and allowed to flap around in high winds.

7. The perforated nature of the material provides good ventilation.

8. Not very effective as a dust barrier if near a dirt road on a hot, dry day, but will keep it cooler inside the kennel or vehicle which is the point.

This is a great size for one crate, lets the air through and reflects the sun off your crate or x-pen.

Honest reviews on Solar Crate Canopy in Silver

We bought this to keep our dogs cool at agility events. It works. And we bought the large size, so it not only covers the tent the dogs crates are in, but can be clamped to the "canopies" on our folding chairs, expanding our shaded space. Great product. My advice: Buy a larger size than you think you need. You'll be glad you did.

Anyone who trials with their dogs knows this is a must I purchase this side to drape over 2 36" crates or for use over the car, and it's plenty big enough.

These boots were great, and they fit over my huge Weimaraner's paws; however, after only 3 uses Ralphy decided to chew one of the booties off, so now he only has boots for 3 paws.....UGH!

These boots are well constructed and have held up to frequent use. I mainly use them on rainy and muddy days to keep our dog's feet (and our carpets) clean. I rinse them off and hang them by the furnace to dry between uses and they have held up nicely. While our dog isn't exactly amused by the boots, he soon forgets about them and starts running and playing, something he wasn't able to do in other brands we have purchased in the past. Also different from other brands is the fact they actually stay on! We've only had to go out looking for a boot once. I'll definitely buy these again when this pair finally wears out.

Well made but they fit my dogs paws strange and they will not stay on the back feet if the dog wants them off. I started out buying a size large but it wasn't near big enough for my 2 dobermans. I went with an xxl because even though they should be able to fit an xl they wouldn't because of their nails. I wouldn't buy any more of these but I guess they will do the trick for our occasional playtime in the snow. Bottom of the boots are a nice thick rubber so they should offer the protection Im after.

Honest reviews on ESC Classic Sherpa Pet Boots - Chestnut

These shoes are so stinkin' cute on my dog. You do have to make sure you tie the tie tightly so the dog does not step out of them or kick them off. Also, be careful of the zipper to not get the fur stuck, but you just use your finger. LOVE THEM!

These booties were bought for my rotweiler and they fell off her paws consistently before we ever got out the door. We live in an extremely cold environment which is necessary for paw covers. I would rather make put plastic bags over her paws before buying these in future.

This cat warmer is shown with a an 8 lb. cat...or less. It works but was too small for my cat. He is 16 yrs old and very thin, but weighs about 13 lbs. They should put a size guide on it. I had to cut off the bonnet so he could sit on top of it.

The bed itself is nice & soft, but I was disappointed with the heater, which is not the full size of the bed, but instead a tiny 9 inch by 9 inch square, which does not provide much warmth. You can purchase the exact same type of heating pad (made by K&H Manufacturing K and H Pet Bed Warmer) or larger for much less & insert into any bed with a zip off cover.

My cat spends about 85% of her time in this bed during the winter. It doesn't get overly hot on its own, but it warms up significantly when she is sleeping in it. I also haven't noticed a significant jump in the electric bill when its own. This is the second year she's had the bed and the heating element is still working fine (though I'm not sure it will survive another year, but they are fairly cheap to repace) She is a small cat though--she weighs about 10 pounds--and she fills up the bed nicely.

Honest reviews on K&H Thermo-Kitty Hut

My cat seems to like to sleep on the thermo-kitty hut but I was disappointed that the hood does not stand up as depicted in the pictures for this product. When she is asleep I can pull the hood partially over her. She does not burrow under covers and, since the hood does not stand up, she winds up sleeping on the open area left when the hood is down. The bed pad is thicker than the heating pad she had been sleeping on and she likes that. It also doesn't get as warm as the heating pad but she doesn't seem to mind. We have put the heating pad in my office and she only gets on it at night when I am working late, so it seems that she is willing to swap the extra heat for the comfort of the thicker pad. I just wish she could be shielded from the cold by the hood of the new bed which was what I envisioned when I made the purchase.

My kitty and I are so happy we purchased this pet bed. It keeps her warm in our unheated home. She is a senior and needs the extra warmth. It is true that the hood does not stay up by itself, but I folded a small blanket and put it inside to prop up the hood. I'm going to buy a few more for my other cats.

I almost didn't buy this because the color on the picture looks GREEN, this thing is tan/khaki on the top and brown on the bottom, very soft and pretty colors, may want to retake that picture or make the colour information glaringly clear. my advice, retake the picture! I added our own picture, but our dog is sleeping on the brown side at the moment.. the bottom is a very light tan, close to the color of my carpet.

We had reservations on buying another dog bed, our Dog Remy is an almost 3 year old Boxer, the last dog bed she had was when she was a pup and quickly tore it up.

It is flat, about an inch and a half thick, very washable, and comfy according to our dog, she lays on it, stays on it, in my mind I think that probably means she loves it.

We were very pleasantly surprised she took to it immediately and loves her new bed, loves her old bed more (which is our or our son's bed) but loves it which is what counts!

Hope that helps you with your purchasing decision

Thanks for Reading!

My dogs love it, keeps them warm off the kitchen floor when they're there. Not a whole lot of padding, but that's what I wanted since it's not their usual bed. It washes very easily too which is great. It is definitely a tan color on one side and dark brown on the other if you're concerned about the color.

The product saved my draperies! I have a 10 year old Maltese that just loves to make his marks around the house. Now with this I don't have to always looking around the house playing detective to see where he has marked. I take it off when he is outside of curse. But when he is inside the house he wears it all the time. It fits nicely around his waist and I use the thin feminine pads because the thick ones makes the band a bit tight.

Pink Ultimate 4 In 1 Pet Stroller Review

Pink Ultimate 4 In 1 Pet Stroller
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

Cute, functional, not durable completely. The stroller and basket are great. The cup holder does not fit well and falls off and the sun shade is difficult to extend/retract due to the cheap plastic hinges. I use my stroller without the ill-fitting cup holder and poorly constructed sun shade and it works great for the price. If you don't need those two things it is an excellent product for the price.

We are very happy with this little pet stroller. Perfect solution for our small breed dog, as we enjoy country fairs, parks, car shows, etc. and often carry her so she won't be stepped on. Our puppy is little and gets tired, and she is very content napping in it. It even has an awning which snaps onto the handle or stores nicely in the basket underneath, which is large enough hold a small cooler. There are several storage pockets on the basket itself, and the tray has two cup holders and a little covered storage compartment.

The stroller has also become our instant puuppysitter. Before the stroller every meal was disrupted by the antics of our mischievious puppy. Now she sits contently while we eat. The basket can also be removed from the stroller frame to be used as a pet carrier or car bed.

I deducted a star due to the instructions, which are virtually useless, and need some serious proofreading. But fortunately the stroller is not difficult to assemble. The frame comes pre-assembled, but the side walls, wheels and tray need to be installed. There is a little packet which, oddly, contains only one washer and one cotter pin. (Not sure if this is meant as a spare, or if there should have been two.) We added a washer and used them when we installed the back wheels. Also, we had a difficult time inserting the side walls as they fit very snugly. TIP: We sprayed some silicone into a bottle cap and applied it to the edges of the side boards, and that made them easier to insert.

The wheels are plastic but the frame is steel and seems sturdy enough for our intended use. We have had it just a few days, and only time will tell us how it will hold up. But all things considered, we are very pleased with our purchase.

We all love this pet stroller. I highly recommend it, our puppy is so happy to get it and take long walks outside. She doesn't care much for being it in the car, but hopefully she will learn to like that too. This was the same stroller I looked at on a different site that wanted over 100.00. Shipment was quick. Thank you so much

The stroller meets every expectation I had. The price was unbelievable for the value, and it arrived faster than I could have hoped for. The options on the stroller are great. I take my cat to work with me and while she doesn't like to "get packed up" so to speak, when I open the top and convert it more to a bed, she is comfortable and takes her nap. The stroller frame folds and opens in seconds. It's great not to have to carry the weight of the carrier, store the purse, her food, my travel mug, and simply stroll along. It'll simplify things going to the vet too.

Reviews of Gooby Freedom Harness Black Small

Gooby Freedom Harness Black Small
Customer Ratings: 4 stars

I have tried various harnesses for my cats, including the standard H style without a neck buckle and the Come With Me Kitty. This one is much better. The H harnesses my cats can back out of, and the Come With Me Kitty is overly complicated to fit correctly. I have one cat that has backed out of the Come With Me Kitty harness as well he's a wily one probably because I didn't have it adjusted correctly. With the Gooby harness, once you adjust this harness for the cat's girth, you never need to make any other adjustments. Just slip it over your cat's head, buckle the girth strap, attach a leash and take a walk. Neither of my cats has managed to escape this harness, and it allows them full freedom of movement. Would definitely recommend this to my friends. To ensure a correct fit, measure your pet around the neck and girth and compare the measurements to the measurements available on the Gooby website.

Well, one cat stays in it. The other managed to get out of it. Will keep looking for another harness for my little escape artist.

I absolutely love this harness. I have tried many different harnesses for my 2 year old, 12 lb Morkie (Maltese/Yorkie mix) and they were all either too big or too small, not to mention that they all applied pressure on her neck and made her choke while she pulled on the leash. One harness I tried did relieve some pressure on the throat but took a masters degree in physics and contourtionism to get on my dog. This Gooby Harness is easy to put on...just slip over neck, right foot into harness, pull strap under and buckle. After the first few times you're a pro.

When I first opened the package I thought, "No way, this is too big to fit her!" But if fit her perfectly. The neck was a lot bigger than other harnesses I had but when I put it on her I realized that this harness sits much farther down on the neck (which is great for alleviating pressure on the dog's throat) and it actually fit her very well.

I am very impressed with the quality of the straps, they are as soft as suede. The hardware is all top quality black chrome, except the buckle which is plastic (this is not a negative...it functions fine and weighs less than a metal buckle would). And finally the mesh really allows this to breath as there is no "backing" sewed into the mesh like some other brands.

I used sizing info I found from some website that sold this same harness:

EXTRA SMALL measures 11" to 12" Chest, 8" Neck, and for dogs that weigh 3 to 5 lbs

SMALL measures 13" to 14" Chest, 9" Neck, and for dogs that weigh 5 to 7 lbs

MEDIUM measures 15" to17" Chest, 11" Neck, and for dogs that weigh 7 to 12 lbs

LARGE measures 20" to 22" Chest, 12" Neck, and for dogs that weigh 12 to 16 lbs

EXTRA LARGE measures 21" to 23" Chest, 13" Neck, and for dogs that weigh 16 to 20 lbs

The most important measurement is the chest, and it is adjustable on the harness.

The neck can be an inch big or so and it should still fit...it will just fit lower on dog's neck.

My dog is 12 lbs, 16" chest, 10" neck and I got a medium.

It is a pleasure to walk her with this new harness. The leash now attaches in the middle of her back and gives me more control over her, without excessive choking that I got from other harnesses. The most important feature of this harness is where the D ring is sewn in (which connects to your leash). The D ring is BEHIND the two chest straps which allows any pressure from pulling to be distributed to the two chest straps and the one neck strap. That simple little thing is what creates less pressure on the dogs throat, and diverts most of it to the chest. I also like that is doesn't interfere with her existing collar and tags since it sits below them on her neck. I only use this when walking her, although it seems comfortable enough for her to wear for longer periods.

I only paid $19.97 shipped for this and it is worth every penny.

This not for big dogs though ...read the sizing info. The XLarge is only for a 20lb dog max.

I ordered a small for my mini dachshund and it fit perfectly. I love the material and the quality. It's comfortable for her and it looks great. Easy to put on and take off. I know it won't hurt her if she is accidentally yanked We're stylin'! The only way this harness could be any better is if it could be used a seat belt harness in the car.
