Fashion the frugal way!

Not too long ago, I showed you the super CUTE pair of glasses that I got online from Firmoo.com. They are a Global Online Optical Store with modern, trendy and classic styles of eyeglasses and sunglasses for both prescription and non-prescription glasses for men and women. And their glasses are super inexpensive so you can change up your look without breaking your budget!

I recently got a second pair from Firmoo because even though I usually wear contact lenses, it’s always a smart idea to have a couple of good-looking backup pairs of eyeglasses. This is the new pair I got:

dental gel dog review

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Daisy and I have been testing some dental health products for dogs from Tropiclean. We’re working with them to help spread the word about the importance of healthy teeth for dogs.

Did you know that 80% of dogs show signs of periodontal disease by age three? Daisy turned four this year and her vet says her teeth look great. We plan to keep them that way for a long time to come, because left untreated, oral disease can seep into the blood stream and cause serious health risks for your pets. Bad breath is often one of the first signs of oral disease and should not be ignored.

In addition to brushing and scheduling regular veterinary exams for your fur kids, you can also add a simple dental solution from Tropiclean to help remove plaque and tarter for a healthier mouth you will love to smooch! When it comes to clean teeth and fresh breath, we like the extra help we get from Tropiclean Fresh Breath Clean Teeth Gel. You just apply a few drops directly to your dog’s teeth.

It’s recommended that you start by using the gel once daily. You’ll notice your pet licking their lips repeatedly after application. This is normal and helps the gel to mix with saliva and coat all surfaces of your pet’s teeth and gums. Ordinarily, after 30 days, application can be reduced to twice weekly for regular maintenance.

Reasons to Use Clean Teeth Gel for Dogs
  • Removes plaque & tartar
  • Works fast and naturally to help reduce plaque and tartar
  • A proprietary blend of natural, holistic ingredients produce a healthy oral environment
  • Kills the germs that cause bad breath, plaque and gingivitis
  • Soothes minor gum irritations
  • Clean teeth and ‘up close’ fresh breath everyday!

If you’d like to learn more, be sure to check out the results of the Clinical Trials for the Fresh Breath Clean Teeth Gel. Pretty impressive and validates the positive feedback we’ve heard from other pet parents about their own experiences. Visit Tropiclean their website, on Facebook and Twitter.

Daisy is known far and wide (or at least around these parts) for her many smiles. My mom likes to say that Daisy is “Personality Plus” because she is so adorably expressive and such a character. Like every dog mom, about a million times a day I just want to stop whatever I’m doing and give that face a big fat smooch!

Also like every dog mom out there, I want to make sure to keep her smile healthy (and smoochable) because a dog with a healthy mouth is a healthier dog overall…and nobody like stinky dog breath. In addition to regular tooth brushing with a toothpaste made just for dog teeth, there are some additional ways you can help give your dog a healthy smile while still keeping your dental routine simple.

Easy Ways To Give Your Dog a Healthy Smile

We’ve recently partnered with TropiClean, and because dental health is the core to overall pet health, we want to let you know about their easy and non-invasive solution to at-home pet dental health care. TropiClean has developed 3 Simple Steps so that caring for your dog’s teeth doesn’t have to be a struggle:

All are made with ingredients from Nature, so you can feel good about using them with your fur kid. And, all are designed to make it easy to keep your dog’s mouth a healthy and smoochable mouth.

We’ll be back over the next several weeks to tell you more! For now, you can visit TropiClean.com to explore their products, and find them on Facebook and Twitter…and don’t forget to Smooch Your Pooch!

This is not intended as medical advice. Remember that no product is a substitute for regular visits to a veterinarian or pet health care professional, and not every product is appropriate for every dog. Always discuss health questions and concerns with your dog’s vet, and seek their guidance about the best ways to keep your pet healthy.

Natural and Cruelty-Free Body Care and Deodorant from Primal Products

As pet parents and animal lovers, most of us take extra care to be selective about the products we use for our pets, home and family. This means watching for natural and non-toxic ingredients, as well as those that are better for the environment and that have not been tested on animals.

cruelty free

I recently received some samples to test from a company called Primal Products, a small Florida company that makes handcrafted deodorant called Primal Pit Paste, and several other body care products, using organic and natural ingredients. The timing was perfect because over the past several months, we’ve been trying to swap many of the conventional products we use around our place, with safer and more natural alternatives.

I’ve been spending time reading reviews online and using the EWG Guide to Healthy Cleaning and Skin Deep Database to help find smarter choices, so the first thing I did when I was offered the samples to review, was look up Primal Products! The Skin Deep Database lets consumers search for beauty and personal care products by brand name or type of product, and look up ratings for how safe the ingredients are. I was super happy to see that Primal Pit Paste is rated 0 which is the BEST rating on the Skin Deep scale from 0-10 from low hazard to high hazard products and ingredients.

Over the past several weeks Woof Woof Papa and I have been using several of the Primal Products and are ready to give you our impressions. All products are Natural, Gluten Free, Cruelty Free and contain No GMOs. Here’s a rundown:

popo powder

Primal Popo Powder

This is an herbal body powder made with organic arrowroot, aluminum free baking soda, kaolin clay, magnesium, and organic cocoa butter. We’ve been using the unscented but it also comes in Lavender or Thyme and Lemon Grass made with natural essential oils.

Popo is a cute sounding nickname for your “down under” region, which as runners and other athletes know, can need some extra care due to perspiration and sweat glands in that area…but the powder can be used all over the body. It’s gentle yet effective, and I like to sprinkle it in the hubby’s stinky running shoes when he’s not looking.

pucker paste

Primal Pucker Paste Lip Balm

Proof that this company really does make everything to cover you from head to toe and in-between, they make an awesome natural lip balm. The hubby has always used lip balm when he runs, to avoid chapped lips…especially when he was training for his marathon. I just wish we’d known about this one sooner! It’s made with all-natural ingredients including Organic Coconut oil, Organic Shea Butter, Organic Beeswax and different Essential Oils depending on what flavor you choose. He likes the unscented, and I love the Vanilla Peppermint.
