101 Dog Care Tips - Best Bully Sticks Tip 8 - Spring Dog Care

We are approaching spring and with that comes walks through the park, maybe a jog, and dangers that you should be aware of.

Heart-worm is caused by mosquitoes and can be fatal for our pooches.  Spring time is a major time for this because of the weather warming up and the mosquitoes becoming more active.  There are many products out on the market that can prevent this.  Check with your vet to find out which one is right for your dog.

As the weather warms up, we also need to monitor our dogs tolerance for heat and the sun.  Some dogs like pugs and bull dogs can not tolerate the heat for very long and can actually become dehydrated and get heat stoke.  Dogs can also get sunburn, like us, so monitor the amount of sun that your pooch gets.

Also be aware that it is also approaching flea and tick season.  There are many holistic flea and tick medicines that your vet can recommend.  Although it is recommended to treat your pet for fleas and ticks all year round, we are approaching the season when this medication is most necessary.

Although we think that fairs and concerts are a great bonding experience for us and our dogs, the noise and commotion can be stressful for your pups.  These are places that should be avoided for long periods of time.

Dogs love spring and summer because it means more outdoor time and more time to release all of that pent up winter energy.  By keeping tabs and following these few tips, you can ensure a safe and happy season for you and your pooch.

Best Bully Sticks Launches Kangaroo Dog Treats and Chews

We are proud to announce a new line of dog treats and chews that we know are going to be a big hit... (our dogs told us so)!  These treats are made from kangaroo (one emu variety) and are all natural, containing only kangaroo, in some cases chicken, sea salt, and water (check each item description for exact ingredients).  Kangaroo is a known for it's hypoallergenic properties, so for those of you who have pooches with allergies, this is a great option.

They come in several varieties, some which are treats and some which are longer lasting chews.  The kangaroo bones and wing dings are slow roasted to ensure that they don't splinter, and to make sure that they have a perfect flavor.  They also come individually shrink wrapped to ensure freshness.  We recommend that the bones, wings, and tails be used with smaller dogs who are 50 pounds and below.  However, the treats, sausages, and jerky's are perfect for dogs of any size!

The different kangaroo dog treats come in a re-closeable zip lock bag and are great to use as everyday or training treats for your pups.  They come in several varieties, all which have a slightly different taste and consistency.

Check out our Australian - All Natural Dog Chew section to see the different exciting varieties that we know your dog will love.

Spotlight on a Breed Great Pyrenees

Weight:  From 85 pounds

Height:  25 -32 Inches

Coat:   Outer coat is straight or slightly wavy

Color: solid white, or white with patches of tan, wolf grey or pale orange

Appearance

The Great Pyrenees dog conveys the distinct impression of elegance and unsurpassed beauty combined with great overall size and majesty. He has a white or principally white coat that may contain markings of badger, gray, or varying shades of tan. He possesses a keen intelligence and a kindly, while regal, expression. Exhibiting a unique elegance of bearing and movement, his soundness and coordination show unmistakably the purpose for which he has been bred, the strenuous work of guarding the flocks in all kinds of weather on the steep mountain slopes of the Pyrenees.

Temperament

The Great Pyrenees is a capable and imposing guardian, devoted to its family, and somewhat wary of strangers - human or canine. They are often used to guard livestock. When not provoked, it is calm, well- mannered, and somewhat serious. Courageous, very loyal and obedient. Gentle and affectionate with those he loves. Devoted to family even if self-sacrifice is required. It is very gentle with its family and children.

Health

The Great Pyrenees, like many larger, purebred dogs, is prone to hip dysplasia, a degenerative joint disease related to arthritis.  In addition, because of their long, thick coats, they can be prone to heat related issues if in warm weather for too long.
