An essential duty of kitty ownership is cleaning up the poop — can't be avoided. Now there are plenty of pricey products that come highly recommended (like the Litter Robot); however, community member Arcsis shared her love for an affordable alternative in the Street Team —this Omega Paw Roll 'n Clean Litter Box ($29):
My favorite thing about this is you never have to touch, or even come close to touching waste. You fill it with your favorite scooping litter, roll it upside down, roll back and empty the drawer.

Even though it's called Sleepytime Tonic, this remedy helps nervous or anxious dogs in any situation. It's also said to help with overactive dogs (I'm looking at you, North) for $13 a bottle.
Paxtonita raves:
It's like doggie prozac!

Good thing there are plenty of other dog owners in the office, otherwise North would have a serious case of dandruff! I've been wanting to test out all the shampoos I've had stashed in my desk for a while now, but if I bathe my pup too often, his skin gets flaky and dry. Thankfully, Samson was good and stinky (and needed to be fresh and clean for our Dog Day on the Bay) when I asked LilPeaPod to test out True Blue's Super Fresh Grapefruit and Chamomile Shampoo ($13).

It just goes to say that even the most well trained pet can still have an accident. Be it an unforeseen, emergency potty break or reverse sneezing turned vomit, getting the stain and the smell totally out is key to preventing a repeat performance in that spot. TeamSugar member wren shared this outstanding solution of Kids 'N' Pets Stain and Odor Remover with the PetSugar Street Team:
I've tried a few and finally found one that really works –it's my new favorite thing.

If your dog's trudging through snow or scampering on icy sidewalks treated with salt, it's important to keep their paw pads protected. Granted this can look a bit silly to nondog owners, but it's important since the lime-rock or calcium chloride melts are poisonous to pets. Shoes prevent the risk of a pup cutting or licking his feet, but I can tell you from experience, it's hard to find ones that stay on!

Is the weather outside still frightful wherever you live? Since the snow and cold isn't leaving anytime soon, I asked all you savvy shoppers and Internet researchers to come PetMarking for cozy sweaters for our furry friends!
Take this craveworthy Cashmere sweater, for example, petmarked by wren.

While some dogs love playing outside in the cold, others shiver and shake when venturing outside in the wintertime. I know many short-haired, lil pups benefit from an extra layer this season so let's look for some snuggly sweaters for those pet owners who have doggies (or kitties) that are especially sensitive to the chill.
All you savvy shoppers and Internet researchers out there, can you locate the cutest, coziest pet sweaters to make sure your animal is warm and stylish too?

As a prize for winning Cutest Dog at the Worldwide Fido Awards, Samson (and family) got to take home a brand new vacuum: the Bissell Pet Hair Eraser. How appropriate! Coincidentally, LilPeaPod's Dirt Devil was on the fritz, so getting this vacuum ended up being a lifesaver in more than one respect:
My trusty Dirt Devil vacuum that we've had for a few years was on its last leg.

If there is one guarantee in life (well, besides death and taxes), it's that your dog is gonna get dirty. . .
