Flea the Scene insect spray contains herbal extracts that repel bugs and a sunscreen to protect your dog’s skin from the sun. The sunscreen is non-toxic and PABA-free, so your dog won’t get sick if he licks it off. However, you may need a separate, non-scented sunscreen for your dog’s nose, especially if he has pale skin. Plus, it’s not cheap-$12.99 at Just4Pooches.com.

Swheat Scoop litter is clay- and chemical-free and 100% biodegradable. Not only that, but it’s also the only litter on the market that’s certified flushable in sewer or septic systems (by the SGS U.S. Testing Company). It has wheat enzymes that help to eliminate unpleasant odors and it clumps firmly to avoid being dragged all over the house by little kitty paws! There’s even a multi-cat version for automatic litter boxes and owners with more than one feline.

Swheat Scoop is available from $13.00 at Buygreen.

It may seem strange to add supplements to your pet’s diet, but there’s a lot of great products available to naturally help avoid nutrition problems. This ‘Super Immunity Powder’, for example, is 100% organic, contains more than a dozen vitamins and minerals – but no sugar, gluten or artificial ingredients – and can help dogs or cats who have allergy problems or who are recovering from sickness. It’s mostly based on traditional Chinese medicinal mushrooms and apparently tastes great. Even the container is reusable and recyclable.

The powder costs $27.79 from the Only Natural Pet Store.

Another natural product from the stable of herbalistic and holistic medicine. This one’s aimed at helping animals with urination problems, like frequent urination associated with urinary tract infections, stress and other problems due to aging. The product works for dogs as well, though. Just put a few drops in their food or water and it helps regulate their toilet visits. As you would expect, it’s organic and natural, with no chemicals added.

Available for $24.99 at the Only Natural Pet Store.

My dog Zola was fortunate enough to get a generous box of goodies from Dogswell for testing and tasting purposes. She happily gobbled up every morsel! First there were cookies which Dogswell calls “Biscuits with Benefits” because they are not only cookies but they contain extra ingredients for fresh breath, happy hips or vitality. They are all wheat-free and corn-free. Theses biscuits are the perfect size for when your dog needs a bit of a treat and you need to give your dog some love! Dogswell also has a line of chew-like treats called “Jerky Treats” that were a big hit with Zola…(Zola is a big fan of chewy treats like pigs ears …and I think pig ears are disgusting so Dogswell may provide a compromise for the two of us) I feel better giving her these chicken breast jerky chews since they are fortified with added vitamins and supplements and they are made from all-natural, cage-free chicken breast. They come in a ton of different flavors.

Dogswell also has a full line of dry dog food and canned dog food. Zola tried both and loved the canned food. (Zola rarely gets canned food and it is always a treat for her) The flavors sound yummy such as: Lamb & Sweet Potato Stew, and Duck & Sweet Potato Stew which contains cage-free, human-grade duck and Antioxidents, Super-Fruits & Omega 3’s & 6’s.
The full line of Dogswell, biscuits, jerky treats, canned food and dry food is available at Dogswell and Amazon
