As every pet parent out there already knows, cleaning can be a real challenge! Having the right tools can make all the difference, which is why we were super excited when Eureka contacted us with an invitation to join the pre-release testing team and try out their brand new AirSpeed EXACT Pet vacuum.

You wouldn’t guess it by looking at her, but Daisy sure does SHED! And she spends quite a bit of time on our furniture, so you can imagine how eager Woof Woof Papa and I were to get started putting Eureka’s suction power to the test!

Designed to remove pet hair in your home, the AirSpeed Exact comes with a PET Power Paw which removes pet hair from carpet and upholstery. The on-board crevice tool and PET dusting brush with plastic teeth grab pet hair from hard to reach areas. Super easy to use, the vacuum’s suction control valve lets you direct all of the power to the floors or to the tools, so you can deep clean to stairs, furniture and crevices. Just turn the dial to TOOLS and start cleaning furniture with the PET Power Paw attachment!

The only thing better than getting a super powerful new pet vacuum, was getting Woof Woof Papa to help out with the cleaning! LOL! Just kidding…he’s great about helping out anyway, but it was easier for me to take photos while he did the vacuuming. Check out our Cleaning Challenge video to see him put the AirSpeed EXACT Pet to the test on our carpet and fur-covered sofa:

Based on independent testing, Eureka AirSpeed EXACT Pet cleans carpets better than the Dyson DC40. This model includes a washable dust cup filter that reduces maintenance costs because it is washable and reusable, requiring less frequent replacement. The AirSpeed EXACT Pet also features an 8 foot stretch hose and long, 27 foot cord to reach further without unplugging. Great for saving time AND hassles. The high efficiency allergen filter helps to eliminate 99% of dust and allergens…especially important for homes with pets and allergies! Experience Eureka Power with the Eureka AirSpeed EXACT Pet, available nationwide.

No More Boring Meals Thanks to Aikiou Interactive Dog Feeder

Daisy and I recently had the chance to test out the award-winning Aikiou (pronounced “IQ”) Interactive Dog Feeder from PetPPI. Not only is it super fun and challenging, but it’s also a great way to slow down your dog if they tend to eat to quickly or gulp their food. This can be a real concern for certain breeds and types of dogs, who are more prone to bloat, or who are following strict portion control for weight loss.

For Daisy, we like that it challenges her problem-solving skills and reduces her anxiety over being left alone because she’s having so much fun trying to get the kibble out that she hardly even notices when we leave! Plus, I always try to find new ways for her to “work” for her food. She gets fussy about not eating sometimes, and changing up the “delivery system” keeps her interested in her food without me having to encourage her to eat.

Daisy received the Dog Interactive Feeder, designed for medium and large dogs. Aikiou also makes a Dog Junior Slow Feeder for smaller dogs, and the Stimulo Interactive Cat Feeder. They come in a variety of cool colors and although each style is different, they all work basically the same way: hide food or treats in the various compartments and your cat or dog goes to work figuring out how to get it out. This unit holds up to 3.5 cups of food and is dishwasher safe. Whether you’re looking for new interactive toy to keep things interesting, or need help slowing down your pet’s eating habits, these feeders are a sure way to add some FUN to your fur kid’s mealtime!

Natural Balance Dental Chews

As you might already know, Daisy eats Natural Balance dog food and we get to help spread the word about cool news and pet products through the NB Insiders program. We’ve been anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new Natural Balance Dental Chews ever since we first heard about them!

Because of Daisy’s sensitive tummy and skin we have to be really careful what treats we give her, so you can imagine how excited we are about this new product release! Natural Balance never lets us down, and we feel especially good about their L.I.T. Limited Ingredient Treats. Natural Balance L.I.T. Treats are designed with a limited number of protein and carbohydrate sources. Scientifically formulated and free from any artificial flavoring or coloring, these treats are great for dogs with food sensitivities and allergies like Daisy and so many other fur kids.

We’re SO happy that the new dental chews line includes grain-free, limited ingredient options! And the timing couldn’t be better, since February is Pet Dental Health Month, too. While there is no substitute for daily tooth brushing, it’s always great to take some extra help where you can get it. These dental chews have grooves that help do the work to reduce plaque and tartar. They’re also easy to digest, help freshen breath and feature Vitamin C, a powerful antioxidant nutrient to support healthy immune function.

They’re made in both Small Breed and Medium/Large Breed sizes and are available in the following varieties:

  • L.I.T. Limited Ingredient Treats with Duck Meal Dental Chews
  • L.I.T. Limited Ingredient Treats Sweet Potato & Chicken Meal Dental Chews
  • Pumpkin & Chicken Meal Formula with Papaya Dental Chews
  • Sweet Potato & Chicken Meal Formula with Mango Dental Chews
  • Clean Grooves Formula (Vegetarian Blend) Dental Chews
