He's aware of his good looks and cutness! Yes, he's a male model. Although a beauty, he makes friends with all kinds of dogs, but reminds them, that he is the model and worthy of the attention. He is cheeky, speaks, barks and all in all, loves being the centre of attention. He loves his Nutro Natural Choice, Premium Rollover Treats and Merricks Texas Toothpicks! PRODUCT REVIEWS NUTRO NATURAL CHOICE DOG FOOD Natural Choice Lamb Meal & Rice Formula is unique because it provides superior nutrition and taste while being highly digestible and easy on the stomach. You sked! A SHANNON Q: How can I make the most out of my dog's walk? SUPER PREMIUM ROLLOVER Rollover's new line of Super Premium Dog Food starts with our Wild Pacific Salmon Rolls. These rolls are made of 59% Wild Pacific Salmon, not farmed! They are high in Omega 3, calcium and protein as well as being hypoallergenic; made with barley flour instead of wheat flour. A: Purchasing a back pack for your dog to wear while walking will help to tire him out. As he becomes accustomed to wearing the back-pack you can start to add weight to it. Some examples of ways to add weight would be placing a water bottle on either side (depending on the size of your dog). It is said that a dog walking for 1/2hr wearing a back pack is the same as an hour long walk. This is also great for dogs that have separation anxiety because a tired dog is a good dog! Outward Hound offers back packs in sizes to fit even the smallest dog, please bring your dog in to get fitted today! MERRICKS TOOTHPICKS Merrick's Texas Toothpicks are a one of a kind treat for the love in your life; your dog. These natural toothpicks are a dog's best friend.
