Best Dog To Take Everywhere (Jan 2023 Update)

I have not trained a puppy since 1994, things have changed! This book had some great ideas examples and pictures. Some of it is complicated or difficult to do. This trainer is a stay at home person, I dont have time to hand feed every meal of kibble. Its hard to retrain old habits, like only use the dogs name for good, not when they are doing something bad. So got a good start w puppy but will be going to a live trainer to help train me.sheehcari

Started reading the book and wish I would have known about it and bought it before i got my chihuahua puppy. I could have started out right from the start. This is my first puppy and I am fifty-eight years old. I really enjoy Zoey, but need help with the training. This book will be referred to a lot by me. Thanks for the expert advice, I really need all the help I can get. Bambigrammybambi

This book is the only book you need packed with information and an easy guide to which dog would suit you and your familygypsy-princess

Bought this for my 7 year old son who is obsessed with dog's, and he loves it. All the breeds, size, weight, height it just goes on and on. Very pleased with this purchase.razor7709

I think this is great book. It's a little simple, but it has pictures and some info about more dogs than any book I have seen and I like it. This would fitting for all dog lovers.kathrynb984

What a beautiful red dragon!! Ruby the Red Dragon has such vibrant colours of red & gold that no photo can truly due her justice!! She's so soft and cuddly as well, & great to take on any adventure! She's very durable and easy to clean & care for, too! If you have a dragon lover in your life of any age ( or are one yourself) 'adopt 'Ruby for them today! You won't be disappointed!donahar-0

He is very cute, but he can't be patted, as my granddaughter had hoped to do, because there are hard ridges/lumps all across his back – sewing irregularities as he was being assembled? – so he is fine for sitting on a shelf for viewing but not for cuddling. I normally buy her stuffed animals that I have inspected and selected in person for suitability, but with Covid-19, in-store shopping was not an option. Not a negative toward the Tack Room – they are just the marketers, not the producers of the possum. But I won't be buying any more stuffed toys on line from any source. For future purchases I'll wait for stores to (eventually) reopen.Constance R

Percy, the porcupine, will be loved and adored by my grandchildren during their visits. Percy will have to assume the personality of dozens of characters in the childrens Play-Acting which they write and Film scripts for, filming on their phones and played on the TV for the adults.craftsm1n

I bought this food 2 weeks ago because my dog has been picky about her food for months now. I have tried Hills Science, Purina Pro, Blue Buffalo – all puppy dry food. I think she really doesn’t like the chicken taste so I thought I’d try something different. From the start when I was phasing out the old food with the new she was way more interested in eating. She also stopped biting her arms which I thought was due to a seasonal allergy but now think it was actually a food allergy. I’m really satisfied with the food! She seems more energetic and overall happier which makes me happy!Drea710

I wish someone would make small sample bags of pet food to allow owners of pets to know if their pet will like it or not before wasting money purchasing several different kinds trying to please fussy pants pets! Or maybe have a tasting station with small bowls of pet food set up for the pet to try in the store! I’m sure this food is great for a starving dog, but my baby would like to share my dinner plate, thank you very much … and I don’t feed him from my dinner plate! My husband keeps telling me he will eat if he gets hungry enough … but I’m a mommy! Mommies feed husbands, children, and critters! And if those don’t eat but sit and whine at my feet, I’ll try anything, cook anything, buy anything to get my family to eat and be healthy! I shall give this food a five star review if you allow me to vent a long-held idea about pet food!Momma of Parry

We’ve been feeding Taste of the Wild Appalachian for small dogs for about a year now after switching to about 10 different brands. He loves it. The kibble is small, and the food is palatable and healthy. I wish the small kibble was available in fish and sweet potato too, but this has some fish in it. It’s a great choice in food for a very picky little dog. Now if he would only stop chewing his feet. This is new and been going on for about a year or so. So I’m wondering if it’s connected to the food in any way.Remy

My daughter loves it. Do not wash it/submerge in water. The heating stuff inside will melt away and deep out the reach and make it slimey. I had to sneak and get another before my daughter noticed it was gone when we had just bought the original. I didn’t read the rage before washing. I wiped it down with a cloth and clothes detergent/water, and then sprayed with disinfectant spray.Nmsj

Very disappointed. The thickness of this blanket is very deceiving on your site. It is not at all as thick as pictured!! Especially along the edges. Very light weight small blanket. But it does have a cute design and is soft. Overpriced for this thin blanket. Not plush at all.Diana

We love our Warmie! The Golden Retriever curls are precious. I bought it specifically for our new baby boy, but his older sister has claimed it! She has a jr sized Warmie already, and this larger sized Warmie is perfect for toting around. We will have to buy another for our son to replace the one his sister has claimed!Sarah B

Wife found young cat in drain at work. She took it home. A few weeks ago she got underneath vehicle and jumped down while we were driving down the street. She had her tail and rear end run over. We took her to the vet, she was bleeding heavy. They patched her up and gave her meds, sent her home and said see if she makes it. Thankfully she is making a recovery, but she is not able to lift her tail or control her bladder or ****. Wife searched online, found mostly dog diapers, but came across this site. We ordered 2ea. 3 packs after measuring cat. Package arrived quickly, and diapers looked high quality. Unfortunately we tried multiple times and ways to get diaper on. We did not have any problem getting over tail its when we tried around legs, either picking her up or trying upright. Wife and son tried to hold while I attempted to put on multiple times. All I can say is the diaper does a good job of holding my blood. We finally gave up after about the 10th time. Maybe our cat is a wild one, but she was having no part of this. I thought that since she was injured we would have no problems. Also tried when she was sleepy. I think I need to search for a cat diaper holding pen! Anyway I've got an unopened 3 pack and an opened unused 3 pack that is sitting on my table. I'm glad cat is alive, but these diapers are not for her.George P.

I bought small for my mini dachshund and medium for my beagle. Both were perfect fit. I found they are great for occasional incontinence but they wet through quickly and sag, making them very easy to slip out of. Daisy, our 16 year old beagle, wrestled her way out of them repeatedly. After some trial and error, we found the perfect solution. We use Poise pads inside the diaper (disposable pads used for human incontinency issues) and mitten clips to attach them to her harness! I'm about to order another set in the pretty fall Lodge colors. Very happy to have saved my floors and my sanity. Great product. If they sold disposable pads and mitten clips, I'd give them 5 stars!Tina

We absolutely LOVE the Belly Bands! My 12.5 yo boy was peeing on the floor in the kitchen during the night and it made me crazy! I was about ready to start crating him at night, like I did when he was a puppy and house training. As a last ditch effort to having crates in the house again, I got the Belly Bands and Diapers, and the bands fit and work GREAT!! But the diapers in the same size, are too big and come off! (He does have a stub of a tail, idk I’d that may be part of it.) That was disappointing. We only tried one of the three because of this. Hoping to get a credit/different size.Laura R.

I received a variety pack of 3 different flavors for my chihuahua to try out and see how well she liked it! Thenpre packaged portions was perfect for her and was given one package a day along with her hard food and she was always asking for more! My little lady weighs 11lbs and she is will nibble on food all day along except when I would put a plate down with the PURINA BENEFUL INCREDIBITES 12-COUNT SMALL WET DOG food then she would finish the whole dish!!! I personally liked the differeflavor options for her because she was able to have a different flavor each day! There was no issues with any upset tummy or excessive gas like she has had with other soft food brands in the past. I like to give all my dogs a soft food as a treat once a day and keep hard food down for to eat for their other meals!kimberly_in_4y4tk

I bought this for years for our adopted Pomeranian. She was an old dog. She made funny noises from day one. The vet told us it was common for this breed to have their throats collapse. I wanted to buy something that she could easily eat. We enjoyed three amazing years with her. She loved the quiet, cuddles, and playing fetch with her several squeak toys. I missed her so much. Recently, I bought a Pomeranian puppy. I was sorely missing my routine with our adopted Pomeranian.candy.s

I received IncrediBite 12-Count Small Wet Dog Variety Pack free from PinchMe in exchange for my honest review. I breed Yorkies, so I had plenty of taste testers ranging from 6 months old- 8 years old, and it was an absolute hit with everyone! Everyone went crazy over all three of the flavors including the salmon, which surprised me, because my fur babies typically don't like any fish flavors in treats or food. We have also tried competitor's wet food in the past, and none of my kids liked the other brand, but they love this! My only complaint would be that they loved it too much, and it became part of our routine that they get one can as a treat before bed. Now no one wants to go to bed without their nighttime treat and I am forced to buy more!chelsea_mi_hz4mf

This Voyager dog harness is great for my pup! I am training him to walk on a leash and this is so helpful so that I don’t pull on his neck. I got the size XXS for him as he was 4 lbs. He is now almost 8 lbs and it still fits him but I am going to buy another one in a bigger size so I can keep it until he is fully grown. They are adjustable so I will probably get size Small. Great product!!teresa.d

I abdolutely feel in love with this harness (by far the easiest to get onto my puppy). I love is so much that I jought 6 of them in the past 4 months. Why did I need to buy so many one may ask…becauae that is how many the puppy chewed through in that period of time. I ended up switching brands after the 6th one. The ease of the new one does not compare but the duribilty was just not there for us on this particular harness. If you dont have a chewer it is highly recommendedMooncat84

My Dodo and I love this harness! He seems to be comfortable all day long no matter what we do? Only downside is we live in Las Vegas so on the very hot days I prefer him in a more breathable type of harness. Other than that I definitely recommend this harness.

This product works for my incontinent 17 year old Maltese. It really holds the urine – including first morning urine. I was previously shampooing rugs constantly, investing in lots of dog gates and still replacing carpet. I wish I found this product years ago. Value Pet Supplies offers the product at a fair price. Another supplier gauged me during the pandemic – doubling the price. Even though they have lowered the price again, I am happy I found Value Pet SuppliesCynthia F.

It’s a good diaper with plenty of absorption. Tends to slide off my dog but I do not consider that a flaw in the product. Well maybe the tail hole could have been set back an inch or so, so the the diaper rode higher up on her back. What I did was just made the opening a bit larger. Otherwise it’s an excellent product and I am completely satisfied. Not sure if all there pics came through but I cut the tail hole a bit bigger which helps the diaper ride higher up on her back.Mary P.

The tape fasteners have been changed and no longer keep the diaper on my dog. When she lays down, the tape unfastens and the diaper is off of her. Why why why would they go cheap on the tape fasteners??? They used to stay fastened for a long time even after taking them on and off. Will not order again.cathy6oo4

We received our NEW FURREAL FRIENDS®: Get Up & Go-Go, My Walkin' Pup™ free from Hasbro, thank you Hasbro! This puppy has been my daughter's new best friend since she saw the box. She has wanted a puppy, but due to her allergies we have not gotten her a real one, so this was a great treat for her! The first thing she did was name her puppy "sparkle." This toy takes four C batteries, which for this promotion came with. The quality of the puppy is great. A very solid toy. Also, pretty realistic for a toy puppy. The fur is super soft and great for cuddling with a young girl. The puppy comes with a collar and a leash (which is non-removable), this is the device for walking with the puppy. On the end of the leash there is the handle with the button for walking the puppy. You push the button and the puppy walks/barks/talks (of course in puppy language). On the top of the puppy's head there is a bow, which if it is tapped the puppy sits down. The instructions said that the puppy responds to voice commands, although not super clear with what commands it responds to. This puppy came with an optional application which can be downloaded to your phone or tablet. The application is free. This really optimizes the interaction that the child can have with the puppy. The puppy just has to sit close to the phone/tablet and they connect via blue tooth. There are numerous games that you can play with the puppy with the application and the puppy with interact according to what is being done. Very cute and intuitive application. It does make a bit of an annoying sound of the "talking" between the puppy and application. This puppy has played with the girls for hours. I would recommend this toy hands down, except the price point is a bit high ($60.00). Great toy for a preschooler if would love and animal and cannot have one.TinyRose

We received this product as a review from Hasbro. From the perspective of my 4yr old daughter this was a hit. This toy has gotten more teeth brushed and tea times that any of her other toys. Taking it out of the box and getting it ready was a breeze. She quickly caught on on how the buttons on the leash worked to control it. For the first few weeks I just let her play with just the toy and then showed her the Iphone app for this toy. It was like getting a new toy all over again. Initially she thought it was just a game and did not understand that it interacts with the actual dog. She still has not caught on to it yet but the app has kept her entertained. Her parents get a kick out of how when you wash the dog in the app the FURREAL Dog starts getting upset and makes noises to show it This toy also moves around by rollers, it does not walk. Movement on rough terrain was a bit unsteady. The noise leve from this toy is acceptable. It is not loud or overpowering. It has been a few weeks and she is still playing with it and having tea parties with it. So in her eyes she still loves it. In her parents eyes we are hoping that the novelty of this does not wear off any time soon.CaptK13

NOTE: I received this product free from Bzzagent to honestly review. Though I might not have sought out such a toy on my own, I was excited to see how my four year old child would interact with it, and she was overjoyed at its arrival. The toy is even cuter in person, and well made. The fur is thick and soft, so the puppy is cuddly, her eyes appear almost bright and "shiny" and the mouth and nose look quite realistic, all things considered. The leash walking is fun and she seemed to respond quite well to the leash control button and moved fine on tile and carpet. The tail wag is very much like a real dog's, as are the head tilt and the playful open mouth expression. Sometimes the pup will also spontaneously charge forward on its own. My little one discovered that one cool thing the pup can do is be "stood up" on her back legs and then flip back down to the ground on her front paws. It would be nice if the toy could react to simple voice commands or to hugs, or run purposefully towards objects placed in front of it. However, as she is, there is plenty of room for creative play, such as running doggy daycare or a training obstacle course for pups (which is what my child and her friends have done, among other things). The variety of sounds she makes (from whimpering to dog singing to loud belches) is entertaining but random. One issue I have is with sound-based interaction. The toy is supposed to react to hand clapping by moving forward, but this seems to be a bit spotty and can be a little disappointing for smaller children when it doesn't work. Also, it's advertised as being compatible with a downloadable interactive app. My issue with the app is that only about 50% of the time does the dog respond to it in any way indicating that they're really interacting– it's supposed to make sounds in response to activities, such as getting a bath or being fed, but the dog just continues making random, unrelated noises. I'm aware that the phone must be placed close to the dog (and loud enough) for it to respond, but this has been very hit and miss. This could be a phone issue, I suppose, but there is nothing wrong with my phone or its volume. My daughter still enjoys playing with the app sometimes with her puppy next to her, and apps are definitely not a top priority in my book for a toy given to (in this case) a preschooler, but if I were paying good money for this toy, I would not have been very impressed with this function. Two months out, the toy has definitely not been abandoned in our household. The toy has seen daily use and still looks brand new. Battery life is great. This seems to be a very durable, quality-made product. Given a few limitations, I don't think that I would pay the current "going rate" for this toy (maybe the price will drop over time?), but it has been an enjoyable companion, and my little one certainly likes her.bluepoodles

I have a 54 lb. Springer-Standard Poodle mix. She is not strangely shaped but, she does have a bit of a deep chest. I bought the XL and it was super tight around the girth. Bought an XL-XXL, the girth was fine but then the neck was too big. Tightened up the neck all the way and it was hard to get it over her head (and still too big). When the the leash was clipped to the front and the dog pulled to one side the neck area bulged open. A bad look at that point. Nicely made and well constructed, just can't fit it to my dog. Very nice harness if you can fit it.springer oodle

What a relief to find this harness. I was terrified to take our lab pup on walks because she was able to wiggle out of everything I tried. (she is still afraid of strangers and cars so she would try to escape) I finally found this harness and now she can join us and I don't have to spend the entire walk in a panic that she will get loose and get hurt. Highly recommend this harness. Some advice…our 6 month old lab is still learning to calm down on walks so she pulls quite hard at times. I find it is more secure if I tighten the straps near her neck before every walk to tighten back up.CMLow

At first, I really liked this harness. We love the handle feature. Have only had the harness for a few weeks and only use it during the weekend. The stitching is wearing and unraveling where the strap is. Would have hoped for the $ this would have lasted longer!DogMom12

This is a fantastic product! My little Patterdale, Fionn, always joins me on the trails and this pack has allowed him to carry his own water, food, and kit. The bright orange colour is great for visibility and I can see him very well when he is darting across the moors or up the mountain paths. The handle is arguably the best feature as is very useful for stiles and deep river crossings or sections of scrambling on the route. The pack is very easy to fit and adjust using the girth strap. The pack dries quickly and is easy to clean with warm water and some mild detergent. Fionn's pack has survived many overnight, weekend, and thru-hikes since purchase and has plenty of life left in it, considering it is worn by a Patterdale! Highly recommend the pack, the best bit of equipment I have bought in a long time!Sián H

Our dog wasn’t sure about it at first. We tried to get him used to it gently by putting it on in the house for a couple of minutes but this backfired as it brushed against the walls and made a rustling noise which he didn’t like. As soon as he was outside for a walk with it on he was fine so I’d recommend putting it on outside just before a walk so your dog associates it with fun. A few days later he did an overnight backpacking trip with it on, carried his own food/bowl and seemed totally relaxed. We did find a small rubbed patch on his chest the next day so ordered the brush guard and this seems to keep him protected. The orange is great for visibility and the quality of the pack seems very good.Katie P

I had an older Ruffwear dog pack (not sure which model) that fit my previous lab perfectly and we covered hundreds of miles with it. My new lab is a different build and the old pack just didn't fit him right. After trying different sizes and packs (medium and large versions of the newer Approach and Palisades packs) – I'm so glad to have found this one! This older version of the Approach has a bit more capacity (size medium) than the new version and less extra straps/separated pockets/etc… My dog does not wear a harness so although it may be a good feature for those that do, the removable bags on the Palisade pack were just unnecessary and added extra material/bulk/weight. This is a simple, few frills pack that fits my dog great but still has everything that we need! The bags ride higher and more compressed to his body so it does not swing around like the much older pack did. Great improvements and I'm stoked to have finally found a new pack for the many miles ahead!Jodi N.

I have a teacup yorkie named Cookie, she's 6 years old and looks just like January's picture when she was a baby, thanks!vikkivale

So cute! Every year for the past 19 years I have purchased Yorkie calendars at local malls for myself. I have had yorkies most of my life, they are the cutest. Our local mall closed last year, google bought the building so it’ll be a hipster hangout for their employees. I bought this one and it is perfect!Liorsmom

These are definitely my pups favorite treat. They go wild over the bacon smell and gobble them up within seconds. These are also great training treats and was very useful when they were puppies. My oldest boxer has had digestive issues since he was born and these treats has never bothered him. Very reasonably priced and comes in larger bags.tre.r

Be aware that even those these dog treats are advertised as 5 ounces, they are not. Instead, they are only 4.5 ounces. We all recognize that prices are rising and products are shrinking in size, but accurate pricing and sizing should always remain constant. As for the treats themselves, my dog enjoys them, so I'm giving this item three stars.Martie

After examining the ingredients list, I will not be purchasing these treats again for my dogs. According to the information provided on this site and on the bag, they contain onion and garlic. Enough of which will kill your dog. Onion and Garlic are toxic to dogs (and cats too, but I digress) and this company should know that, what with being in the pet food business. Also steer clear of leeks and chives. I threw the remainder of my last package away over this. Garlic powder is even more dangerous than regular garlic, and I can only imagine how band onion extract is. Steer clear of these potentially dangerous treats, as even spreading them out over a period of time can cause complications once enough is built up. I say why risk it?Andrew

Very impressed with the material and craftsmanship of this stuffed animal — much above the many others I saw Very happy with this purchase Price higher than others but worth itGuest

I really like this very light crate for my well behaved dogs when I take them to agility trials. Easy to carry and set up. Note this is not a good crate for dogs that are not used to be crated or that might try to escape. For those, you will need a wire crate, which I have for my not well behaved dog that suffers from separation anxiety.poodles

This is a great product for people who are on the go with their pets or just last minute travel plans and you don't want the hassle of packing a big travel kennel. So far I've seen the small and medium sizes. Love that all you have to do is give a quick twist and it pops up. There's no hassling with putting it together like most do. Comes in black and tan. Sturdy enough for your pet to be in and move around. The price is decent about $70.00 but remember once your done with your usage it's very easy to clean and put up. To me this is great for small to medium size dogs. For bigger dogs I really don't think it's big enough or sturdy for them. You can find this product at Walmart.jessica.l

This crate is great! So packable and has Velcro on the bottom to stay in place on the curvey back roads. Our new puppy road all day as we traveled place to place, the kennel and was extremely comfortable! She loved it!Cora5
