House Training Key Tips

Getting your pup to ‘go’ where you need them to can be a mammoth task, but we have some tips that may help!

  • This task can take several weeks. You should have realistic expectations. Mentally prepare for accidents/setbacks.
  • Provide constant supervision, especially at first. Leashing the dog to yourself is an excellent way to keep track of the times they need to go and to stop accidents as/before they happen.
  • A consistent eating routine helps their bodies regulate elimination times. Get to know when they need to go - every three hours, or even every hour. 
  • If you have an accident happen indoors, don’t punish the behaviour, but do clean the area thoroughly with solution to remove smells and the temptation to ‘go’ in the same area.
  • Carpet feels soft under their paws and could encourage them to use that spot, so if you’re secluding them in a smaller area, bear this in mind.
  • Stick to a regular spot for their business outside. When they successfully do use it after you take them there, reward them with lots of affirmation, perhaps even a treat.

Joint Health Ultradog

Good quality food - I have 3 dogs with joint problems. They have been on Ultradog's Joint Health food for several months now and they are doing really well. The old man (16 years) is even joining in play with the younger ones now!

The best cat litter on the market

Best cat litter in the game!

I had an active collie that wouldn't eat. I tried everything but she would only occasionally eat fresh meat. Even then she wasn't keen. This food is the only one she eats and she adores it. Wish it was less expensive.
