Daisy toys r us pet toys from petsmart

The very kind folks over at PetSmart sent Daisy a pretty gift pack of toys from their new Toys R Us Pets Collection and WOW are they adorable! Maybe you’ve seen the TV commercials already about the new Toy Chest dog toy aisle. Well, PetSmart has been working with Dr. Sophia Yin, veterinarian and applied animal behaviorist, to provide insights on how toys and play help develop a happy, healthy pet. This Toys R Us Pets Collection includes dog toys designed especially for all stages of development from Puppyhood to Adult Years and even with the Senior Dog in mind! There are over 100 whimsical Toys R Us items available at PetSmart stores and online at PetSmart.com including:

Toys R Us Pets Patterned Body Canvas Caterpillar: This toy has 5 squeakers for extra fun! Remember to always supervise dogs with squeaker toys…Daisy and I enjoy playing fetch and a light game of tug with this one!

Toys R Us Pets Wacky Water Bottle Crunchers: You know how dogs love to play with empty water bottles? Well, Daisy sure does! This cute toy covers the water bottle so that a pup can enjoy the crunchy sound and fun, without you having to worry about them hurting their mouth or swallowing pieces of broken plastic if they crack the bottle!

Take the Pledge: Support ASPCA No Pet Store Puppies Campaign!

Sadly, many people still don’t know that most Pet Store Puppies come from large-scale commercial breeding operations commonly known as Puppy Mills.  Operators of puppy mills breed dogs in unsanitary, overcrowded and often cruel conditions where profit is given priority over the well-being of the dogs. ASPCA is raising awareness and helping to put a stop to this with their “No Pet Store Puppies” Campaign. In addition to the No Pet Store Puppies Facebook Page, ASPCA has also rolled out a series of YouTube Videos to inform the public and YOU can help spread the word AND enter to Win a $50 ASPCA Prize Pack!

Take the Pledge and help fight puppy mill cruelty by refusing to shop at pet stores and on websites that sell puppies.

I pledge that if a pet store sells puppies, I won’t buy anything there. Not pet food, kitty litter, or squeaky toys — Nothing! And I pledge to tell everyone I know not to shop there either!

ASPCA would like to give our fans and followers the chance to Win a $50 ASPCA Prize Pack with items designed to help show off your support for their important work to end animal cruelty. One lucky winner will receive an ASPCA Prize Pack including:

·         ASPCA T-shirt +  Cute Dog Mug

·         ASPCA Wristband and Magnet

·         ASPCA Orange Tote and ASPCA Calendar

This giveaway runs thru June 12, 2012, is open to US residents age 18+ and uses the Rafflecopter Widget for FAST and EASY ENTRY! There are multiple entry methods to give you additional chances to win, but just choose the ones you want.

Delivering 220 airwatts of suction power, this canister vacuum cleaner features advanced Level 3 Root Cyclone technology to ensure thorough, efficient cleaning with no clogging or loss of suction. It also offers a TurbineHead brush bar that’s ideal for cleaning medium and short pile carpets and can be turned off for hard floors. Certified asthma and allergy friendly by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America, the unit expels air that contains up to 150 times less mold and bacteria than common breathing air thanks to the vacuum’s money-saving, lifetime washable HEPA filter. Plus, Dyson’s Bactisafe screen traps and kills bacteria, mold and allergens on contact, preventing them from re-entering the air.

The Telescopic Wrap System allows the hose and wand to be compressed, and ensures that the Dyson DC23 can be stored away neatly and compactly, with no loose components or wires to get tangled. It comes with a stair tool for focusing on dust and dirt from stairs and stair carpets, a brush tool with long bristles to dislodge cobwebs and for delicate cleaning, and a high-velocity airflow crevice tool that’s ideal for cleaning base boards, picture frames and in-between furniture. Other features include a clear bin with 0.44-gallon capacity, 21.6-foot cord length, and easy-to-maneuver fixed wheels. The Dyson DC23 TurbineHead is backed by a 5-year warranty.
