If your dog is troubled with a sensitive or upset stomach, it is natural that he may not want to eat anything. Your prime concern must be to provide the dog with the best dog food for his condition, instead of the cheap canned dog foods or other dog treats.

Make sure you serve the dog food at an elevated level, so that the dog needn’t bend and make extra efforts to eat the food – which can worsen digestive problems.

It is necessary to make regular changes in the dog food as the dogs tend to get bored with the same food!  Pictured to the right is Earthborn Holistic Dog Food – a great alternative to regular Dog Food.

Examples of high quality specialty dog foods are listed below:

Hi-Tor Veterinary Select Eno Diet for Dogs is a low fiber diet that has been specifically formulate to minimize stress and irritation of the gastro-intestinal tract.

Hi-tor Neo-diet Dog Food is specifically formulated for dogs requiring a low protein, restricted phosphorus diet to assist in management of renal disease. While this food is lower in protein and phosphorus, it has met the AAFCO Feeding Test requirements.

The Hi-Tor Reduso diet is specifically formulated for the dietary management of overweight or less active dogs. This reduced calorie diet is highly palatable and nutritionally complete.

SportMix High Protein Forumula  is designed to provide extra energy for highly active dogs requiring more protein in their diet. Working dogs, high strung breeds or any other dog under stress will benefit from sportmix high protein formula.

Made in the USA Pet Products

The 4th of July is approaching fast and we think it’s a good time to reflect about the freedom that the United States provides each and everyone of us.  We may complain about the politics or the taxes – but supporting each other’s endeavors and those products that are made here in the US is something not many would care to argue.

GregRobert proudly offers a litany of US made products:

• Made in the USA Dog Rawhide
• US Made Small Pet Products
• Made in the USA Cat Treats

Pictured to the right in made in the USA Cosmic Catnip.

What is the difference between USA made Rawhide and inferior rawhide made overseas?

Rawhide is the inner layer of the hide of any cleft-hoofed bovine livestock.  Beef-Hide is premium rawhide made from cows raised for consumption.  American Beef-Hide is derived from corn-fed cows within U.S. borders. Corn-fed beef raised in the U.S. supply a thick, palatable and high quality chew. American beef-hide is considered “The Source” of choice for premium rawhide chews.

If your dog loves to snuggle or cuddle with his or her dog toys, the Wool Koala Dog Toyby ABO Gear is a great eco-friendly toy for your dog.  Made with all natural, undyed and untreated wool, this Eco-friendly dog toy is great for the environment and fun for your dog to cuddle.  The inside is stuffed with natural coconut fiber that is biodegradable and makes a crunchy sound as your dog chews.

Another Eco-friendly dog toy that is made from all natural fibers is the Horse Shoe Jute Dog Toy, which is also made by ABO Gear.  This toy is made of undyed, natural jute and filled with natural jute fibers.  It is great for a game of fetch with your dog and is easy for your dog to catch in the mouth.  After this toy has been worn out, the materials will easily break down.

If your dog enjoys playing with rubber toys, the Pup Treads Recycled Rubber Tire Dog Toy by Ethical is made of recycled rubber and is a great Eco-friendly dog toy for dogs who love to chew on their toys.  It is available in a several sizes to suit your dog.

One of my favorite low-calorie treats for overweight dogs is the Trim Treats dog treats.  Not only are these treats very tasty, but they are also lower in fat and made especially for overweight dogs.  These treats are available in beef or lamb and are made to be crunchy.  The crunchy texture also has an added benefit of helping to keep your dog’s teeth cleaner and the mouth healthier.

If your dog loves to chew on pig ears, try switching to Cow Ears by Redbarn.  These ears are lots of fun for your dog to chew on and are a lower fat option to pig ears.  They are perfect for any overweight dog who loves to chew on rawhide and more.

A low fat treat that is great for helping to keep your dog’s teeth cleaner is the Greenies Lite Treat Pack.  These low fat treats are great for cleaning teeth and perfect for any dog who needs to lose some weight.  They are available in three sizes depending on the size of your dog.  Your dog will love the taste and you will spend less time worrying about your dog’s weigh.

It is important to give your overweight dog lite treats in moderation because giving too many lite treats to your dog can also increase your dog’s weight.  For a great selection of dog treats and more, check out GregRobert Pet Supplies for all of your dog’s needs.

• If you know that you will be gone for most of the day, it is a good idea to give your dog a big morning meal.  Not only will this help to keep your dog from feeling hunger pains and looking into the garbage can, but only help your dog feel like taking a nap.  Just like people, dogs get tired after eating a big meal and the more your dog sleeps, the less likely he will get bored and get into stuff around your home.  Ethical’s Stainless Steel Double Dog Diner is available in a variety of sizes and makes keeping your dog’s eating area neat easy.  It is slightly elevated and great for larger dogs.
• Make sure your dog has a “dog friendly” place to rest.  A cozy, warm dog bed is great for any size or type of dog and helps to keep your dog warm if you turn down the heat while you are away from your home.  A great dog bed for your dog is the Ortho Thermo-Bed Heated/Orthopedic Dog Bed by K and H.  This comfortable, heated dog bed will keep your dog warm and offers lots of back support for hours of sleeping.  Your dog will love the soothing heat and feel rested after a nap on this dog bed.
• Keep lots of chew toys and treats around for your dog to enjoy and entertain himself with.  Chew toys like the Fun Pack Dog Toys – Rough and Rugged has three tough chew toys for your dog to enjoy for hours.  If your dog likes to chew on bones, the Mammoth Bone Dog Treat is great for bigger dogs and the Stuffed Shin Bone Dog Treat is perfect for entertaining smaller dogs.

Keeping your dog happy and entertained is important when you are away from your home during the holidays.  For a great selection of products for your dog, check out GregRobert Pet Supplies.
