Hot Pet Products to Help Your Dog Brave the Winter

We all know that the time is coming. Those dark and cold winter nights will be upon us soon and it’s not just a painful experience to be out in the cold for us – but for your pets as well.

Here are a few items that will help keep you and your furry ones safe and sound on a cold winter night.

Salt on the sidewalks is a big concern when I have my dogs on their daily constitutional. If you haven’t ordered your EPIKS dog boots, made with special memory foam insole combined with the Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) sole to reduce the load on a dog's legs and energize with each step, you can help apply some TLC to their paws by rubbing on Cain and Able’s Paw Palm. This all natural paw rub is formulated to protect, heal, and moisturize. It is made with human-grade ingredients that are safe if ingested. It is also great for dry skin, chapped noses and chapped lips (for you!).

Get tired of having to bring along the flashlight in order to find your pets favorite ball? With the sun setting so early in the day during the winter months – it’s important for you and your pup that you don’t lose their favorite toys in the snow. That’s why the Night Wubba is the perfect solution. With night reflective tape on the Wubba’s tails and a reinforced orange nylon ball with squeaker you and your pet will be able to spot this toy without searching in the snow banks.

Of course, on those days that you just can’t face outside time because the weather is so bad, you need to find something to occupy your pet’s time and energy indoors. The Rudy Holiday Plush toy is made from a soft, yet durable corduroy fabric, non-toxic poly fill and an enticing squeaker. Rudy will be sure to entertain your pooch for hours this holiday season and this silly looking reindeer will warm any heart! If your pup doesn’t favour the squeaker toy (or maybe does too much) you can also spend some quality time inside with your pet by making them their own, home-baked dog treats with the Pet Cookie Cutter Gift Set. A cute and clever gift set that's packed with kitchen favorites, the kit includes two bone-shaped and two star-shaped cookie cutters, a red & white cotton dish towel, and a 1-quart stainless steel bowl.

So, whether you chose to brave the outside elements or stay warm indoors, these smart buys can help you and your furry friends through the cold season with skill and style!
