FortiFido Vitamin Water for Dogs: Spoiled Sweet or Spoiled Rotten?

I know I'm totally guilty of spending a big chunk of cash on pet supplies and food, and apparently I'm not the only one with a recent study saying that Americans will spend over $40 billion dollars on pampering their pets this year. To add to the pampered lifestyle of pets comes FortiFido, a doggie vitamin supplement in water form, so your pooch can lap up his vitamins without you having to coerce him to swallow a pill.

What's the deal, you ask? Each of the four drinks focuses on keeping your pup healthy and is packed with essential vitamins and minerals, plus it's all pet/human safe, so if you grab your pet's water instead of yours after a workout, it's a-OK. The flavors include peanut butter for strong bones, lemongrass flavor for healthy joints, spearmint flavor for fresh breath, and parsley flavor for great skin. I know that North would dig the peanut butter flavor and possibly even the spearmint. But I have to ask myself if he would ever drink something that's lemongrass flavored? And what the heck does parsley water taste like?!

Bare Bones: Aqua Pure Breed Water

It doesn't look like bottled water, but it is! And it kinda makes me wonder why anyone didn't think of this design before. You're looking at the newest bottled water to hit the market, and it's made just for your on-the-go pets. Called Aqua Pure Breed, this water is fortified with vitamins and minerals to aid in joint, heart, nerve, and skin health (similar to FortiFido, which a slim majority of you would file into the Spoiled Rotten category), but in an easy-to-use package shaped like a water bowl!

Gone are the days of toting around your water bottle and a collapsible bowl, since Aqua Pure Breed has thought of that already. Honestly, why hasn't anyone thought of this before?! And although the "bottles" are disposable, I might want to keep these around and reuse them since they are so portable. APB doesn't have a list of retailers on their website just yet, but if you can't find it at your local pet shop, you can have your bottles delivered to your home in cases of 48 for $60 - the equivalent of about $1.25 a bottle.
