Best Dog Boots @Ruffwear
It is January and there has yet to be 1 snowflake in sight in New York City. In anticipation for the snowstorms to come and our wintery friends in Canada – I am rating the Ruffwear winter accessories an A+. As you know, Jacob has worn Ruffwear since 2008 but these new high boots are just amazing. PolarTrex are engineers for the winter weather and it has a Vibram rubber soles for traction. Every dog’s paws are different and you have to put them on properly. Boots are a MUST for city dogs. I have used Ruffwear boots on Jacob in Toronto during winter and for hiking in the summer, in Los Angeles on the beach and also hiking through Runyon Canyon and also in New York City through a nasty snowstorm. Salt and windshield wiper fluid and even gravel can be so damaging for dog paws. Having boots on your dog is not just for fashion purposes but extremely practical for your 4 – legged friend.
When it comes to winter apparel, it is not cute to be freezing. I focus on form, function and practicality first and foremost. Last winter, we swore by the ‘balloon boots’ by Pawz (perfect for the slushy pre-spring mess) but the Bark n Bootz from Ruffwear is the best top of the line boot you can get for the cold.
This is the investment that you won’t regret!

Try Fido’s Cookies! They are fresh and all natural from Denver, CO and come in beautiful gift sets.
The cookies will have your tail wagging and the Christmas tin is reusable.

Looking for something to do all winter long when it’s way too cold to play outside? You can bake your very own fresh cookies for your pooch. I love this! I bet there will be a lot of spoon licking
Jacob recently received the Christmas Cookies and he was over the moon! As soon the package arrived, his eyes got really big and his tail was wagging at turbo speed. The little pink tongue was ready to taste these treats!
So we had to open them! These are one of the best presents you can get for your dog or your friend’s dog this Christmas! The cookies are delicious and the tin is reusable to keep all your treats, toys, and knick knacks!

I want it @Bluebloodpups
I think I found the J.Crew of doggy apparel. I found Blue Blood Pups when I was looking for a present for Jacob for Christmas…
What do you think of this? So ‘All American” right? I think it would be preppy and oh so cute.

Protect-a-Bed @Bigbedbug
After hearing so many horror stories about BEDBUGS, I did some internet research.
Did you know dogs that are trained to detect bedbugs get paid $3000 per gig! Oh man. I decided to train Jacob with the bedbug toy Protect-a-Bed gave us at a convention. Didn’t go so well.
Bedbugs emit a pheromone that is detectable by dogs. My dog, Jacob can only detect fun, peanut butter and furry toys. So if you have a dog like mine, don’t depend on him to save you from BedBUGS.
Make sure you get a good night sleep sans paranoia by getting the best protector out there – Get Protect-a-Bed!

Saturday with the @Supercollar
The Supercollar has been featured on numerous design blogs and I just had to try it out. So this unseasonably sunny Saturday, we tested it out! Jacob was wearing the size M supercollar at the very last notch (i should have gotten large) and he got his croc and we were off to Washington Square Park!
The collar it self has a retractable leash within and also 3M reflectors. It’s works well but because of his love for chasing pigeons and squirrels, I wouldn’t use this on him on regular city walks. I would bring this only for when we go hiking or if we go to the beach.
I would 100% recommend it for dogs under 20 lbs who have no pulling issues or if you lived in a quieter neighborhood. We walked through Soho and it was quite busy!
Have you tried them? Share your experience on https://www.facebook.com/supercollar
