Bonide 12-Pack Mouse Magic Pest Repellent


Best used in VERY compact spaces ...
I really wanted this product to work, big time. And your mileage may vary, but here's what I found. We have a small 21' Chinook Concourse RV that is a two-person rig. When parked in our rural yard during the summer (between trips), white-footed mice would get into the camper even though I have spent many hours trying to find out how they do it. I use snap traps, but I need a deterrent because as you all know, mice are continuously excreting waste products as they move (that's why falcons have vision capabilities that let them see the urine of their rodent prey) and who wants mouse pee and droppings everywhere? Not my wife, or me, for that matter. So I really needed a deterrent.

I ordered the Mouse Magic 12-pack and when it came, I put four of the large teabags out in the camper. The peppermint smell was wicked strong! Satisfied that I had defeated my enemy, but being eternally curious, I put out 8 Victor mouse traps with peanut butter, just to see. Three days later, three...
the mice love it
I purchased this product to discourage the mice from my kitchen drawers and counters. They have chewed holes in some of the sachets, and have otherwise continued to run rampant over my kitchen. Very disappointing -- but it does smell good.
Mice seem to like it
Mice were running across my wife's desk at work during the night. She put a packet of mouse repellent on her desk and the next morning there were droppings on the packet so obviously it really scared the mice.

Oster Equine Care Series Grooming Brush, Stiff Bristle, Synthetic, Blue


Oster Stiff Brush A++ -- really lifts the dirt and easy to hold
This Oster stiff grooming brush really lifts the deep dirt and dust in my horse's coat. I am finding that my horses no longer puff up a cloud of dust when I pat them in the winter (when there is less grooming and NO bathing). I like it ten times better than my old, standard shaped wooden brushes. The ergonomically shaped, padded back makes it much easier to hold and to use. I have chronic tendonitis in my hands and this brush is great. Plus -- it WORKS!
Decent stiff brush for mud
This brush works well for mud removal when used in conjunction with a good curry comb.
*********** THREE YEAR UPDATE ***********************

After three years of regular use, this Oster brush is still in excellent condition and works as well as it did when it was new. We use a variety of Oster brushes on our Percheron and Mustangs daily.
My goats love it!
this brush is good to brush your animal down, but its big. it lays in your hand funny, i dont like using it very much, but my goats love it!

Four Paws Reflective Safety Comfort Harness, X-Small, Red


very small neck
bought this for my 3 lb dog, it was great for like 2 weeks and then the hole for the head was to small his ears were getting stuck. the body fits great, had to buy the small. now the neck hole is to big and body is ok. he has grown in weight and with time it should fit good. i did notice some tearing at an edge but think it was just seam of the reflector coming out and not a broken harness. love the reflectors all harness should have them good for night walks and when the time changes.
very very small, very reflective
I have a chihuahua and at just 5.5lbs this harness was a little too small for him. The neck and back part were ok, but the length was too small so it rubbed his armpits and he didn't like it. I went to my local pet store and got the same one in blue in size small and that's a little bit big around the neck but fine elsewhere so we deal with it. I was very happy with the price for this on amazon, I paid over 3x as much for the bigger one at the petstore. The harness itself is also good, it's a mesh material, not as thin as say a part if basketball shorts a little thicker. Almost like a thin foam or something behind it for comfort. It is definitely strong enough for my little pipsqueak but I can imagine that a larger stronger dog could easily tear the mesh if it is a puller when walking. At night when the light hits it the reflective strips really light up bright! It reminds me of the suits on that movies Tron haha overall I think it's a good product esp for the price and it arrived...

Dog Games Puzzle Paw Flapper


My OLD dog loved this!
My dog has NEVER wanted to play with any sort of dog toy, she won't even play fetch (she's kind of a weird dog in that way). However, I do know how much she loves her treats. Our dog is 14 years old, she can not hear at all anymore her vision is going, but she is still very playful with us. My dad thought it was a silly idea for me to waste my money on this item as our dog can't even eat hard food anymore. However, I know my dog and had faith that she would love this item. We broke it out on Christmas day...put a treat in it and the dog went to town. Our dog loved it. She might be deaf, her sight might be going, we will probably even have to put her down soon, but she still has a great since of smell. My dad even said "Well, I guess you can teach old dogs new tricks". Thank you for letting me see my dog SO excited over something again!
Paw Flapper a good puzzle! Star spinner a WASTE

has potential...but...
So our 1-1/2yr old boxer has tons of energy but little patience. He played with it for a few minutes and was able to figure out what was going on. He definitely did not like the rotating portion. Because boxers have shorter noses, he was unable to get into the little bowl area and retrieve the treat we had put in for him and the harder he tried the more the bottom portion rotated. In the end, he ended up getting frustrated (not the point of the toy), flipping it over and bullying his way to the treat. I think if his nose/snout was longer/thinner, he would have enjoyed the game more, but as he was physically limited it was more of a tease for him. If your dog is a boxer, bulldog, or other short nosed bread, I would look for something else.
