Wool Cat Sweaters

Jax always gets cold during the winter. I have came across many different types of sweaters, but this one is by far the best. It is very thick and warm and would work great for your cat.

New Job

Duke & Piper have a new job! They will be working for Pampered Puppy!

If you have never visited Pampered Puppy it is a fantastic website for reviews, shopping, articles, and runs a monthly dog photo contest where you can win great prizes.

Take a look at Pampered Puppy if you are looking for a great selection of dog clothes, birthday party ideas, and any other dog products you may need.

Welcome to the Family

We would like to welcome Piper to the family! She is a 4 month old Biewer terrier and has fit in great so far. Duke doesn't really care either way and tends to ignore her, while Jax and her had issues at first and now they play and wrestle alot!

Do can find the dog clothing that Piper is wearing at Poochieheaven.

One Brave Bunny!

I know it is really hard to see, but this is a picture of Duke eating on the deck. In the back by the retaining way is our resident bunny, so thinks it is totally fine to eat the bird seed while Duke is about 10 feet away.....

FYI: Duke's lead that he is connected to would not be able to reach the bunny, but would get very close...

Bessie & Barnie

Bessie & Barnie Sofa Bed

I LOVE Bessie & Barnie Dog Beds. Duke has two of them in the bagel shape and I've been wanting one for Jax, but he isn't a big fan of laying on actual dog beds, so I didn't want to get one and have it sitting around without being used.

Jax does like laying on furniture though- couches, chairs, etc. Bessie & Barnie has a sofa bed option that I thought I would try.

1. It is furniture like- which he enjoys sleeping on and wrestling with his mice in.
2. It would look super cute in the living, so even if he doesn't use it, it will still look nice (FYI: He is currently sleeping on the couch, next to me while I type...)

So far we have had to for 3 days. He has slept in it a handful of times and has played with his mice in it a handful of time.

The thing I love about Bessie and Barnie beds is the fact that they are available in sooo many different colors and designs. They have one to match your home decor no matter what it is. My favorite fabric is the rosebud fur. They are extremely soft. They are also made in the USA, so buy purchasing one, you are keeping jobs in the USA and do not need to worry about toxins from China.

Do you own a Bessie and Barnie bed?

Seat Belt Harnesses for Dogs

It terrifies me when I see small dogs sticking their heads out a very open car window or large dogs in the back of pick up trunks. While I know that most dogs have no issues, it makes me sad for those that happen to hit a bump and end up injured or worse.

I think that there is a reason why us humans have laws for seats belts- it is for our safety. I think that when we drive we should also think about our pets safety.

If you do not have your dog in a dog carrier , dog crate, or dog car seat you really should think about giving them a dog seat belt.

Not only will these save your dog if you were to be in an accident, but they can also prevent distractions because your dog will no longer be able to climb where ever they please.

Dog seat belt harnesses are available in multiple sizes, so whether you are looking for your small Shih Tzu or your large bull dog, they will be protected.

Dog & Cat Swimwear

It is supposed to be in the high 80s here the next few days. That means that lots of people will be out on the water. Make sure you pooch is looking stylish with dog bathing suits.

There are a few different styles of swimsuits for dogs available. The first option are swim trunks for male dogs. Just like the ones daddy will be wearing, you boy can sport a stylish pair of Hawaiian swim trunks. They are available in colors such as green, orange, black, red, and more!

For those ladies, you will want a dog bikini. Just like with humans, there are dog bikinis that come more than other. They are also multiple colors such as shiny gold, skull and crossbones, floral, polka dot, and many more. There is also a one piece swim suit for those dogs wanting more coverage.

Our dog swimsuits are available in many different sizes- so whether you have a tiny Maltese or a beautiful cocker spaniel, at Poochieheaven you'll find some dog swimwear for them.

Comfort Carrier

At Poochieheaven we recently got in two new types of dog carriers.

They are made by Bergan and are great for airline travel. They are not flashy and will not work as a discreet carrier, but they are great for traveling. Whether you are going to the vet, daycare, grandparents, or on a plane, these carriers will get the job done.

There are two types- one with wheels and one without wheels.

The Wheeled Comfort Carrier is black in color and will hold dogs up to 22lbs and can either work as a regular carrier or as a wheeled carrier. It provides plenty of ventilation and pockets for other goodies.

The Comfort Carrier is available in two color- Comfort Carrier Blue and Comfort Carrier Pink. These carriers will hold dogs up to 10lbs and provide ample amounts of ventilation with a patented Pet Connect which allows you to pet your dog safely while they are in the carrier.

Make sure to stop by Poochieheaven and find the perfect dog carrier for you.

Ruff Ruff Couture Cat Clothes

Many people actually like to dress up their cat, but there is a limited number of cat clothes available. One of our great customers are Poochieheaven owns two cats that she likes to dress up. She found that Ruff Ruff Couture Dog Clothes work great as cat clothing!

Ruff Ruff Couture clothing is made in the USA and extremely high quality. Not only that they make great boy dog clothes, which is very hard to find. Many times they also have matching boy-girl clothing, so if you own two dogs or cats, you can have them match.

Grooming your Long Haired Dog

Yorkies, chihuahuas, Lhasa apsos, and Maltese have such beautiful coats, especially when it is long. But these long, beautiful coats can also cause many problems for their owners. It you don't want to cut it, below are some solutions to help keep it looking nice.

1. Brush your dog at home every day. Set aside a time each day and make it a routine. Brush your dog for five minutes, this will help to keep mats out. Don't be afraid to trim a small area if it is getting to difficult to groom, it will grow back! Brushing is one of the easiest things you can do to keep your dog's coat in good condition.

2. Feed high quality food. Good coat and skin start from within. If you feed junk, it will look like junk. Another good thing is a fish oil or coconut oil for dogs. This will also help with their skin and coat.

3. When bathing your dog, use a shampoo and conditioner that is made for dogs with long hair. This will help to keep it in pristine shape.

4. Invest in some dog hair barrettes. These will allow you to keep your dog's hair out of their face. It will also help with keeping their hair clean from when they eat.

These are a just a few suggestions to help you keep your long haired dog looking beautiful!

Separation Anxiety and Dog Toys

For some reason, Duke has had some issues with what I think is separation anxiety. He is doing things he has never done in the past- getting into garbages and going to the bathroom in the house. While these things are not the end of the world, I wonder- what happened to my dog?

The more I thought about it the more I thought that maybe it is a form of separation anxiety. That instead of eating the carpet or destroying the table, he was destroying and eating the garbage. It seems to be the worst right when we leave -I once took a shower and didn't let him into the adjoining room, and he got into the garbage- and then it it over.

So what I thought is that I needed something (and something good) to distract him for the first 5 minutes when I leave. He is not a big chewer, so bully sticks, himalayan chews, deer antler chews, etc where not going to work. I have down the kong filled with frozen peanut butter before, but I usually forgot to fill it back up and the soft peanut butter wasn't going to work. So I was stuck. I thought about giving him a Nina Ottosson dog toy, but since he really isn't into a lot of dog treats and food, I wasn't sure if that was going to work.

I decided that I had to try once since there wasn't much else I could do. I finally brought one home and set it up. Of course I had to put really good treats in there. The first time I gave it to him, he looked at it, smelled it, licked it a few times and went to go find his ball. I thought, see I knew he wouldn't like it. But then Jax thought it was pretty neat and started using it, of course then Duke thought it was pretty neat and was able to get it to work after a few times.

Well, not after many uses, it seems to have done its job. When I left his morning, instead of trying to stop me from getting out of the dog and freaking out that I was leaving him behind, he was upstairs trying to get the treats out of the toy. So HOPEFULLY, this will be it. He can forget that I am leaving, get his treats, and then lay down and relax.

So, if you are looking for dog toys to help withe separation anxiety, I would highly recommend the Nina Ottosson Dog Toys.
