Pet overpopulation, neglect & homelessness is a big issue that impacts not only the lives of animals but your heart & entire community. Whether you are giving your time by stuffing & licking envelopes for the next fundraiser, passing out fliers for the shelter upcoming car & dog wash or donating money, every bit helps pets in need. When our hearts unite to advocate for animals we can save & enrich lives. Here are some ways you can help!

Be Responsible. The first step towards responsible pet ownership by keeping a watchful eye on your pet. To keep your pet from becoming a lost soul, keep current identification on your dog or cat at all times so your pet can be returned home safely. Be part of the solution to pet overpopulation &  homelessness by spaying & neutering your pet. In any event, your dog or cat should be properly supervised. Make sure all doors, windows and fences are securely latched so your pet does not become a runaway in distress. In addition to the basics—food, water, shelter, and veterinary care—give your pet lots of love and attention.

Make a donation to your local animal shelter, charity or rescue. Check with your local shelter to see if they have a wish or needs list. Donate usable pet food, old blankets and towels, or other needed supplies that you may otherwise discard. This is a great way for you to lower carbon paw print. By giving back & donating useable items, not only do you help your local animal charity, rescue or shelter but are helping the planet. You can also contribute to one of your local shelters special programs & help with one of their campaigns.

Lend a Helping Paw. Can’t donate money, well don’t sweat it. Roll up your sleeves & volunteer your time at your local shelter. One of the perks of hands on volunteering is the free of charge cuddle time with deserving & amazing animals. You can bathe and groom the animals, walk dogs, or play with cats. Stuff envelopes for a mailing or help publicize an event, the skies the limit. Check with your local shelter or their website for a list of  volunteer opportunities available.

Find Your Purr-fect Match. If you are thinking about adding a four legged addition to your family, well look no further then adoption at your local animal shelter or rescue. Your local animal shelter have dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages & breeds who are just waiting for a permanent, loving home. From puppies, adult-dogs, kitties, adult cats to purebreds you will find them at your local animal shelter or rescue.

Help Bark or Meow the Word. Don’t be afraid to speak out on behave of animals who can’t fight the good fight themselves. You can go door to door and spread the word animal safety & pet owner responsibility. Better yet, tweet all about it. With  blogging, Twitter, Facebook, Myspace & Youtube it easier then ever to promote a bark-worthy cause. Don’t underestimate the power of a click. Use your social media power to tell your friends around the globe about your local shelter’s services & cause.

Vote for the animals. Support legislation to protect animals. Contact government officials about animal issues and urge them to support pro-animal legislation.

Be a hero. Don’t sit in silence. Report animal cruelty and neglect as well as injured or stray animals. You may prevent suffering and even save a life.

Raise caring children. Instruct children in how to care for animals properly and how to treat them with kindness. Set an example by doing the same.

Work in Animal Welfare Sector. You don’t have to have to be a veterinarian to help animals! There are plenty of jobs in animal welfare.

Don’t wait to give back, make a difference and volunteer today! Your heart, animals & local shelter will thank you for it.

Aikou Interactive Dog Bowl & Game

For those of you who have pooches who gobble down their food or who just want to have a little fun while they eat, this is for you. Dogs need intellectual stimulation as well as physical activity. The Akiou (pronounced "IQ") Interactive Bowl was developed to meet that need. It gives your dog a chance to solve problems in the form of an interactive game between you and your dog. But besides using the Akiou as an anytime educational and fun activity, you can also use it as a food dish for meals. Because your dog will have to "forage" for his dinner, he will be eating his more slowly. This is a great way to slow down dogs that inhale their food.

The Akiou bowl has four double compartments, each with a sliding door that moves back and forth, and six compartments with a large spinning door. You hide the food in the compartments and the dog accesses the hidden food by turning the wheel and opening the sliding doors. The spinning door comes off for ease of cleaning.

Note: The Akiou is designed for you and your dog to have fun together. The dog should not be left unsupervised with the bowl.

Get a New Leash on Life with Krebs Recycle!

At Krebs Recycle, they are remaking the way dog leashes are made. Our Krebs Recycle dog leashes are fashioned from durable, pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled nylon climbing rope. In fact, they don't recycle rope, they up-cycle it, which is better than recycling because they use the rope in its original form and extend its life by transforming it into a dog leash. There are no carbon-intensive recycling processes to turn the rope into something else. So you get a great leash, the rope stays out of the landfill, and the environment gets a break.

Choose from the Krebs Reggie 6' Leash & Krebs Ruby 4' Leash
* Made from durable recycled nylon climbing rope
* Rope width falls within 10-10.5 mm range
* Heat-shrink tubing protects hand-sewn knot from weather, wear & tear, and dirt
* Swivel snap for easy connection to leash

Because these leashes are made from recycled climbing rope, no two are alike. You may request in the comments section what main color you prefer, but we can not guarantee specific colors.

Introducing Petkind 100% Green Beef Tripe: Reward Your Pet w/ a healthy & flavorful treat

After much request, we are happy to announce the arrival of a new tripe treat for your pooches. Tripe contains the partially digested grains and grasses that the specific animal source has eaten. As carnivores, dogs and cats cannot convert vegetation into nutrients within their own stomach. However, when they eat tripe, they receive these nutrients that have been already processed naturally by the animals stomach system. Also present within the stomach lining are natural gastric juices, amino acids and other digestive enzymes not found in other pet food. These gastric juices and enzymes aid pets in digestion to efficiently utilize food for maximum nutrition. Amino acids are necessary for muscular development and other gastric juices are excellent cleaners for teeth.

PetKind Tripe Treats are dehydrated dog treats made from 100% Green Beef Tripe. Green Beef Tripe contains all the essential fatty acids and juices within a cow's stomach and is one of the healthiest ingredients available to dogs. These treats are an amazing cleaner for teeth and great for overall skin and coat condition. You'll probably want to give this to your dog outside because they do have a slight odor. PetKind Tripe Treats are intended for intermittent or supplemental feeding only. These treats come in a 5 oz. re-sealable bag, which contains approximately 10 chews.

Benefits:

*Made in the USA
*PURE dehydrated meat-100% Green Beef Tripe
*100% all natural-No preservatives or artificial ingredients
*Contains naturally occurring Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids
*High protein, low carb, low fat
*Great for dogs dental care
*Dogs love tripe!
