Does your pup seem anxious? Stressed? Scared? Nervous? Don't despair, the Anxiety Wrap is here. We are so excited to offer The Anxiety Wrap offers a holistic approach to calm your dog when it is stressed by thunderstorms, fireworks, car sickness or vet visits. Repeated use can aid in ending shyness and nervousness, destructive chewing, grooming issues, jumping and help release stress and tension in your dog. The Anxiety Wrap uses Maintained Pressure and Acupressure to relieve stress and end/lessen fears and anxieties in dogs. Created in 2001, it was the first of its kind on the market and invented the category of Pressure Wraps. It's the only patented pressure wrap in the industry and comes with 100% satisfaction guarantee and free, on-line support.

The Anxiety Wrap Is Designed To:

- Target acupressure points on the dog's body to aid in the calming effect from the light pressure of the garment.
- Hit sensitive pressure points on the back legs with the "butt straps" to - Help calm and release tension.
- Provide minimal disruption/discomfort to the dog while providing just the right amount of pressure to affect the nervous system.
- Allow the dog to freely urinate and defecate.
- Vary the amount of pressure through various elastic bands so each Anxiety Wrap can be customized to meet each and every dog's individual needs.
- Allow the "butt straps" to be used in a variety of ways - crisscrossing them, using only one strap, holding the tail down, etc. - to vary the effect.

This is a great way to ease anxiety and stress, while not having to medicate your pooch.

Summer not only marks the time for outdoor fun but heat waves which can be hazardous to your dogs health. Here are some simple summer time dog safety tips to beat the heat and stay cool!

1. Exercise your dog early in the morning or late at night. With the heat dogs run the risk of getting hear exhaustion and heat stroke so exercising or walking your dog in the cooler parts of the day is key. Avoid strenuous excercise with your dog when it very hot outdoors.

2. Use doggie boots. Keep in mind that when the mercury rises this will cause the pavements & surfaces like asphalt & cement to heat up. Before taking your dog for a walk check the surfaces by hand to see if you can stand it. Better yet have your dog wear booties to prevent their paws from becoming burned.

3. Watch for signs of dehydration. Dogs can't sweat, they cool off by panting. Some signs your dog is overheating is excessive drooling, lethargy, bloodshot eyes and paleness. You can also do a dehydration skin test by lifting a piece of your dogs skin. If its takes longer for the skin to fall back into place then this can be a sign of dehydration.

4. Keep your dog hydrated! Darker coat & overweight weight dogs run a higher risk of dehydration. Always carry enough water & collapsible bowl when going on a short or long walk and hike with your dog.

5. Cool your dog down. You can cool your dog down with a kiddie pool under a shady tree, laying down a wet towel for your dog to lie on, turning on the sprinklers or gently spritzing your dog. You can be creative with a make shift air conditioner by setting up a fan in front of a pan of ice.

6. Bottoms up! Dogs cool from the bottom up so spritz your dogs paws and stomach, not just the top of the dog. You can also place a wet towel on the bottom of your dog.

7. Check the weather. Keep an eye on pet weather alerts during the summer and heed the warnings to have your pet chill out indoors.

8. Never leave your dog in a parked car. Cars (even when shaded) retains more heat and can heat up very quickly leading to heat stroke & possible death.

9. Doggy paddle in the pool! Cool down with your dog by taking a dip in the swimming pool. Never push or force your dog into the pool it may only traumatize him, instead gently coax your dog in and hold on to him until he is comfortable in the water.

We always love getting tweets from our Twitter friends asking us to feature their dog  or favorite breed for our Best Bully Sticks Spotlight on a Breed blog series. As always we are honored to oblige. Thanks @JHowerthKing for submitting your beautifully mixed pup Indiana to be featured. Also thanks for following our @bestbullysticks tweet updates. We affectionately refer to our mixed-breed canine companions as "dogs of mixed heritage". Whether your dog is a purebred or mixed breed remember all dogs are created equal and deserving of unconditional love.

Bio About Indiana

Indiana is believed to be a Labrador/Dachshund mix and will be a year old in June. She is just under 40lbs. She was adopted her from a shelter when she was 3 months old, and has been a bundle of fun and energy for the King family ever since.

Congrats on being spotlighted!!

Labrador Retriever Breed Description

Height: Male: 22.5-24.5; Female: 21.5-23.5 inches

Weight: Male: 65-80; Female: 55-70 lbs

Coat: The Labrador Retriever is a double coat breed. The outer coat is straight, short, very dense, and hard in texture. The under coat is soft, weather-resistant, and protects this breed from cold, all types of ground cover, and water.

Color: chocolate, black, and yellow.

Appearance: The Labrador Retriever is a handsome, sturdy, and robust dog that is large in size. He has dark, wallowing eyes, and an eager and intelligent expression.

Temperament: This breed is highly intelligent, loyal, and deeply devoted. The Labrador Retriever is reliable, affectionate, and thrive on human companionship and attention. They are absolutely wonderful with children and get along exceedingly well with other dogs. They may be reserved with strangers and make good watchdogs. If this breed is left alone for extended periods of time without attention or stimulation they will become lonely, bored, and destructive.

Health: The average lifespan of the Labrador Retriever breed is between 10-12 years. The Labrador Retriever is prone to hip and elbow dysplasia, PRA and various eye disorders.

Dachshund Breed Description

Height: Standard types are an average of 14-18 inches tall

Weight: average of 20 pounds.

Coat: The Dachshund comes in three different varieties. The Smooth Haired Dachshund, Wirehaired Dachshund, and the Longhaired Dachshund. He also comes in two different sizes being standard and miniature. The Longhaired Dachshund has a long and straight coat, with hair slightly feathered and longer on the underbelly, ears, chest, and legs. The Smooth Coat has a straight, smooth, short, and glossy coat that should all be of equal length along the body of the dog. The Wirehaired has a coat of broken appearance with wiry, coarse, and harsh hair.

Color: Smooth-coated Dachshunds - The smooth-coated Dachshund may have one-colored, two-colored, dappled, sable or brindled coats. The one-colored coats can be red or cream which may or may not have darker hairs throughout. They may have a small white patch on the chest. The Two-colored Dachshunds may have black, chocolate, wild boar, gray, blue and fawn coats with rich tan or cream markings above the eyes, on the underlip, sides of the jaw, inner edge of the ear, front, breast, throat, inside and behind the front legs, the paws, rump extending one to two thirds up the underside of the tail. Dappled Dachshunds have areas of lighter color contrasted with a darker base color. They may have a white patch on the chest. The Brindle Dachshund has a pattern of dark or black stripes over the entire body. They may only be visible on the tan points. Sable Dachshunds have a uniform dark overlay on the red coat. The hairs in the overlay are two-colored with the tip being much darker than the base color. The sable Dachshunds typically have a widow's peak on the head.
Wirehaired Dachshunds - The most common colors of Wirehaired Dachshunds are wild boar, black & tan and various shades of red. Any color or patterns listed above are admissible. Wild boar is a banding of the individual hairs that gives the coat an overall grizzled look. Points of tan may or may not be seen. Variations of this pattern can include red boar and chocolate-and-tan boar. There may be a small patch of white located on the chest.
Longhaired Dachshund - The coat of the Longhaired Dachshund can be any of the colors of the Smooth-coated Dachshund.

Appearance: The Dachshund has a long, round body that is low to the ground due to their short legs. The head is elongated with a slight convex skull and long muzzle. The Dachshund's skin is elastic and free from excessive wrinkling. The Dachshund carries its head with the utmost confident. They have an alert, intelligent expression.

Temperament: Dachshunds are a very clownish breed and can be very mischievous at times. A very intuitive dog, the Dachshund is now most commonly seen as a companion rather than a hunter. The Dachshund is an all around friendly dog, loves people, very outgoing, and is sure to steal the hearts of everyone he meets. The Dachshund is a fun loving dog, tenacious, and lively, but can become jealous at times. This breed does very well with older and more considerate children.

Health: The average lifespan of this breed is between 12-15 years.  Dachshunds are prone to spinal disc problems, heart disease, urinary tract problems and diabetes.

Dry, itchy skin can leave your dog feeling miserable and you going crazy over your dogs incessant scratching. All this scratching can be unbearable to watch and give you the itches. Well we are here to remedy the situation. Here are some easy, safe and natural remedies to soothe dry, itchy skin and give your dog some relief.

1. Vinegar & Water. Calm the itch by wetting the area with a solution of half vinegar and half cold water.

2. Oatmeal. Another remedy is to put a half cup of oatmeal in a quart of water, bring to a boil, strain, and let it cool to room temperature. Pat the mixture on the itchy spots.

3. Olive Oil & Lavender. Mix one half cup of  olive oil with one half teaspoon of lavender essential oil. Dip a cotton ball in the oil mixture and rub on the itchy areas.

4. Fish Oil. Apply fish oil directly to the skin and coat; or put a bit of the oil in your dog's food once or twice a week or give as a fish oil capsule. Consult vet for proper dosage.

5. Aloe Vera. Aloe vera soothes and moisturizes dry or itchy skin. Cut open some leaves from an aloe vera plant and strip out the pulp. Gently massage the pulp and juice into your dog's skin.

Consult vet if itching is persistent and does not get any better. This could be a tell tail sign of something more serious.
