1800PetMeds
-
Our new vet doesn't carry heartworm medicine on site so we were referred to 1800petmeds.com to order our heartworm medication. I was leery. Most vets seem to be vehemently opposed to this site. But the vet said it's a fabulous site and they do all the work for you. So I went online and went through the steps to order the dog's meds. It was simple and easy and the only information you need to have is your vet's name, phone number and address. 1800petmeds faxes the prescription request to the vet and (hopefully) your vet signs it and faxes it back. In just a few days the medication did indeed arrive in the mail and it's the real deal. I was very pleased with the ease of being able to order it and the site will remind me when it is time to reorder the medication. I also liked that the site allowed me to order a year's worth of heartworm preventative whereas my previous vets never gave me the option to do that. The only thing that keeps this site from getting a perfect rating are the prices. They are a little higher than I am accustomed to spending. While not insanely overpriced, they are higher than the medication had cost me at my previous vet. But the ease of ordering and the timeliness of shipping will keep me going back.
Celltei Pet on the Go Carrier
-
After hearing the buzz about Celltei's carriers we decided to give them a try. We purchased the Celltei Pet on the Go model in a size small and in the camouflage print. We were immediately impressed by Celltei's customer service. They were gracious and very accommodating and we really felt that they treat every customer like an individual. Now, on to the product. We received the carrier lightening fast and it is just packed with features. Always being on the look for a hands free carrier that was stylish and functional had been fruitless until the Celltei carrier. It met every single need we had. The carrier is roomy with enough room for Tuffy (6 pounds) and his cousin Palbert (3 pounds) to fit in. Of course it's meant just for one dog but in a pinch you can easily carry two. The carrier has a long messenger style strap that can be shortened or lengthened depending on your needs. There are two openings on each side of the carrier making it easy to remove the dog and for them to enter the carrier. One opening sports a Velcro attachment so you can roll the end up and allow the dog to look around outside. The inside of the carrier sports a comfy, removable padded floor mat, a water bottle holder which is just awesome, a small pocket and a leash hook. The outside of the carrier has a large pocket on end of the carrier and the front of the carrier has a large pocket, pen holders and a cell phone pocket! The strap also has a little zippered pocket! It is just packed with extras. The pockets are roomy enough to keep essentials on hand like pooper scooper baggies, treats and leashes. Now, let's talk function and comfort. The construction of the carrier is top notch, everything is very well made and we haven't had any issues with it. The carrier is very comfortable to carry for extended periods of time. The hands free aspect is just fantastic because you can be carrying items with your free hands now. It is just made for shopping. The carrier is also stylish; coming in a variety of colors and patterns. We loved the camo because it was just a touch edgy and different. Camo is also a great print for all those guys who want to carrier their pampered pets in a carrier that isn't covered in flowers. Celltei also can custom create a carrier in your choice of fabric. We have received an abundance of compliments on the carrier; everyone wanting to know where they can purchase one too. The price is just right for the Pet on the Go models though some of the other carriers do run a bit on the high side. The price, however, is well worth it for a stylish and incredibly well made carrier. Do yourself and your shoulders a favor and get one of these fabulous carriers. With a huge selection of patterns, carrier styles and sizes, Celltei is a great choice for your next carrier.

#006 Buttercomb from Chris
Systems -
We were introduced to the wonderful world
of Chris Systems products while at the
Reliant Dog Show in Houston, Texas this past July and we haven't looked back
since. We asked a general question of what brush or comb would work the
best on all kinds of dogs. The answer, The Buttercomb. Chris
Systems' Buttercombs come in a variety of sizes. The one we went home with
was the smallest of the bunch, the #006. Taken directly from Chris Systems'

Pet Flys Clothing -
Purveyors of wonderful carriers, Pet Flys has recently expanded into the dog clothing realm. Pixie (and her mother of course) are suckers for being the first to have anything so we were thrilled to get to try a new dress from Pet Flys "Ready to Ride" line. The specific dress we purchased was the Halloween dress which barely made it in time for Pixie to wear it. The dress is adorable, it's a great shade of orange with an adorable glow in the dark Halloween picture on the back. Very well made and super cute to boot. The only problem we had with it was the odd smell coming from the glow in the dark portion on the back. After letting it air out for a while the scent is still there but not as overwhelming as before. The website claims that it's supposed to be strawberry scented but it just smells like plastic. The price is very fair, especially for a brand name item. Pet Flys clothing ranges in price from $20-$25. And probably the coolest thing about the clothing line is that the styles match their fabulous carriers as well. Most of the designs come in girl's sundress styles and boy's tank styles. Sadly we were only able to get the sundress for Pixie as the boy's tank wasn't available at the time. Hopefully we'll have the matching tank for Tuffy next year. The line has 3 sizes: Small (3-5lbs), Medium (6-10lbs) and Large (11-16lbs). Miss Pixie is usually somewhere around 5 lbs and we opted for the Medium size and it fits perfectly. If in doubt, go a size larger. Pet Flys Clothing is available on the Pet Flys website as well as other high end dog clothing sites such as ImAPreciousPup.com (which is where we purchased ours from.) By the way, the adorable Halloween bow Pixie is sporting is from none other than HighStyleDoggy favorite, Marj!
Marj's Bows -
Marj (aka Lady's Mom on various forums)
has a great talent for creating beautiful bows. For anyone on that
seemingly never ending quest to find a great, well made bow that doesn't break
the bank, your journey has ended. We really can't recommend Marj enough.
Her bows are exquisite and by far the most beautifully crafted bows I've come
across. Her online photo album showcases a variety of the bows she has
created for people. She also will create custom bows with your
specifications. Marj offers bows in two sizes, 5/8 for our smaller furry
friends and 7/8 for our larger furry friends. We personally purchase the
5/8 size for Pixie and the bows look spectacular on her. Pixie gets
showered with compliments every time she is seen in one of Marj's creations.
The pink and silver bow Pixie is sporting in the 1st picture below has actually
been named after her! So ask for the "Pixie Bow" if you like it.
Marj is also now creating it in a variety of other colors due to the demand for
it! Pixie, of course, is just thrilled that she made the bow famous.
The prices are also very low, especially for the workmanship involved in each
order. The bows are beautifully created; each one is made individually by
hand and the centers are sewn rather than glued.

delicious."

fool me into eating a pill by tucking into a treat. No sir."
