Quiko Exotic Eggfoods


Great
Birds love it!! A protein food with seed supplements. My finches of all varieties eat it without a problem. I wish packaging had a ziplock.

The Gripper Ball 8 Inch


Not for GSD who loves to chew!
My German Shepherd destroyed this in about 15 minutes. He tore the handle off. He still plays with the rest of it as it maintained its shape. Just be careful and watch your dog so he doesn't swallow any loose pieces.
Labs favorite toy
I have a 130lbs golden lab that's built like a mini-horse and she can't leave the house to play without this ball in her mouth. Bailey is 5 now and though they claim it's pretty indestructible this our 4th one as she does eventually tear it apart. I'd say they last a good year if your dog plays with it regularly. Once your dog bites thru one side of the handle at the top it kind of creates a hole/opening to tear thru the rest. Still though, I've bought many balls/toys in multiple different colors and this is the only ball Bailey retrieves. Bought for a competitive price here and saved the 30mile drive to Bass Pro where I used to go to find this exact ball for around the same price (+) tax.
Mom & Dad Buy Me One!
This is the best throw toy Mom & Dad have ever bought for me. Daddy throws it out in the back yard for 20 minutes every day and I LIVE to fetch it back to him so he can throw it again.

The only thing I don't like about this ball is that it is made of thick rubber and I can't chew it up. Oh, yeah! Daddy complained that it goes flat easily and he can't air it back up with the compressor because my teeth made holes in it when I fetched it.

I wish Mom & Dad would let me play with it anytime I want to, but they put it away after my fetch playtime with Daddy!

Better Than Ears Premium Dog Treats, Smoky Bacon Flavor, 36-Count Pouch


May be healthier than ears, but do not last as long
Maybe I am the only one, but I give my dogs pig ears to keep them occupied for a while. It takes both of them a good 5-10 minutes to eat one. But I know they aren't the healthiest thing on the planet, so when these better than ears came out, of course I tried them. Both of my dogs love them, but they can eat one in about 30 seconds, defeating the purpose of a chew type treat. For the price, I'd rather just buy them regular dog biscuits that are eaten in the same amount of time. That being said, the Amazon price is MUCH cheaper than any in store local price I've seen. Maybe these are better for small dogs that can't devour them so quickly, but my 70 pounders eat them like they are a regular old dog biscuit.
My dog loves these!
These are a better deal through Amazon than in the store and my dog is spoiled, so I try to purchase treats that are good and cheap too!! If you order several items and get free shipping too then it's even better!
Better than Ears
My dogs love these. This was a great buy for the price as they are quite expensive in the store and you only get 9. This is a bag of 36.

Conair PRO Dog Round Tip Shears, 6-Inch


great buy!
These very sharp shears work great for trimming the hair on my shih tzu's face. One of the blades is micro-serrated so the fine hairs are gripped while closing the blades (hair doesn't slide out like with dull scissors). Finger holes fit me fine (my ring finger is size 7 to give you an idea). Highly recommended!
Light, sharp, and safe
Going from a nurse's bandage scissors to this product was a revelation. Suddenly I don't have to worry about jabbing my dog with sharp scissor tips. Suddenly I don't have to crank my hand twistways to get the scissors to cut. Suddenly I have a good cutting length so I don't have to do a hundred short snips. Not 100% sure about the durability of the black coating on these, but so far I am very happy with these shears, as is my dog.
Nice shears
Used for removing the occasional fur matt from my Maine Coon Cat. Work well, nice build quality, safety tip. My cat recommends.

NaturVet Cranberry Relief, 50 Gram


Godsend for UTI-prone cats
I have two cats, one male and one female, and they are both prone to UTI - whenever they are stressed slightest bit, they'll have an episode. My vet recommended that I add supplements to their regular diet to keep this from happening too often. I did some searches, this seemed easiest (and also the cheapest) way to administer the supplements. I know cranberries are good for humans too, so I figured why not. At first I was afraid they wouldn't eat their wet food because of the cranberry odor(and yes they are picky about their food) but to my amazement, neither of them seem to care and gobbled it down. Granted, I added the powder into Fancy Feast (not the best food around, but it's by far their favorite wet food... go figure) so maybe that helped. I haven't yet tried adding the powder into their "regular" wet food (Natural Balance) which they don't like as much but is more nutritious. But I'm pretty positive they won't mind it much.

Since I've started adding the powder (3-4...
14 years old and still tick'n!
As a Vet Tech with 20 years or so under my belt, I have accumulated many "needy" critters. My all-time favorite is a 14 year old orange domestic longhair male kitty named Currituck. Tucker always showed many symptoms of urinary tract problems and blocked up more than once-barely living through one episode. Crystals in his urine have always been an issue, as well as the accompanying infections and discomfort. Prescription foods soon became too expensive with my large crew-so I began to "cook" for him. Since the prescription foods all have a urinary acidifier in them, I ordered NaturVet Cranberry Relief and hoped for the best. I did monitor his urinary pH for a while until I knew what his daily dose should be. He is happier and healthier that ever-pretty good for a kitty who almost died 7 years ago!
cranberry relief
My dog loves this and it has solved the urinary tract problems.
It was recommended by a breeder... my vet just kept giving her antibiotics.

Deep Blue Clarity Plus in Tank UV Sterlizer 35W


Deep Blue 35W Clarity+ Sterilizer Does the Job!
We have a 120-gallon aquarium with four large Shubunkins. A few months after setting up the aquarium, we noticed the water getting cloudy. We increased the frequency and volume of water changes, but the cloudiness continued to increase. We added polishing pads to our Fluval 405 canister filter and added a H.O.T. Magnum equipped with a micron filter to capture the particulates. The added filters got dirty fast, but even with frequent cleaning and replacement, the cloudiness persisted and began to take on a greenish color. Upon doing further research, we found out this was "algae bloom." We were informed that this condition was not harmful to the fish, so we decided to try one of several chemical treatments because they were readily available. After several days, there was little if any change in the greenish, cloudy water. Since this chemical treatment was toxic to the fish as well as the algae, we opted to discontinue using it.

According to the research we did, UV...
NO MORE ALGAE....
UV Sterilizers are the best way to maintain your aquatic environment. You will no longer need to chase ph levels or fight with suspended algae, cloudy waters, and parasites. You will finally get to enjoy the peace and tranquility of watching your fish without a daily struggle to control the environment. UV Sterilizers will also increase your confidence to add new fish to the environment without the stress of whether they are infected with ick of some other vicious virus that will wipe out your tank.
I have this 35W DeepBlue on a 100 gal community tank that houses a variety of exotics, including eels and Knife fish. I have seen such a turnaround in this tank since I added the DeepBlue. No more anmonia spikes, algae, parasites.....Just the confidence of knowing that the fish and environment of safe from all of those pesky critters.
FYI---In addition to the DeepBlue, I maintain this tank with a Fluval 5X and live bacteria cultures to scrub the gravel. Maintenance costs...

Black Custom US Military Dog Tag Personalized ID Set. Complete with Chains and Silencers


Perfect Dog tags
It took 3 days to hear back from the company after sending the initial email about what I wanted the black dog tags to say. I heard back 3 days later saying they were done and were being mailed to me. 2 days later I got them in the mail and they are exactly as advertised. Everything was spelled correctly and look great. Personally I think they are a great necklace for style. Great price also. Thanks
I LOVE these and the merchant that sold them
This product is awesome! My kids like to put their own wishlist items in my wishlist- pretty sneaky huh? I usally (99% of the time) ignore them, but saw this and thought it would be cool for back to school. I wasn't sure exactly how to send them the information to personalize, but they told me to just send them an email through my account after ordering. That's just what I did. 4 days later- we had it!! The boys love it, I loved how quick, easy and inexpensive it was. These are great quality and I have told all of my friends and their friends' parents about them. I will definitely buy more from this merchant and will order these again- when the boys lose them. Next week....
Satisfied customer
I purchased these ID tags as a Christmas gift. The first set of tags arrived and the name was misspelled. I immediately notified the seller and new tags were made quickly and at no cost. The chain is standard thickness for these kinds of tags and my 13 year old son has not broken it, yet. The black looks good and the ID info on the tag is legible and neatly placed. The tags are encased in an open rubber case as shown in the picture. Aside from the tags being black, they are very similar to the ID tags I still have from my Army days. Good product and good customer service. Quick email response.
