The Food We Eat:

What's Really in Pet Food?

Our Mom did extensive research on Dog Food and asked several Vets what the best choices were. She chose "Flint River Ranch"  She loves it so much she sells it now!  Learns more about it here at Yorkie Lane.  FLINT RIVER RANCH FOODS are rated in the top 10 dry dog foods in the WHOLE DOG JOURNAL  More info can be found below!

Our Yorkie Coat Care:

Our Mom asked some of the leading Show Dog Breeders that she knows around the country about what coat care products they use on their show dogs.  After reading up on the choices and trying just a couple different products, she chose "MinkSheen" by a Touch of Mink!  Why you ask?

"MinkSheen Pet Shampoo's rich lather will gently clean your pet without leaving it's skin dry or irritated. Mink Oil leaves a soft, shiny, "show" quality coat, while Vitamin E soothes and prevents "hot spots". The Cedar and Citronella oils will naturally repel fleas and ticks while leaving your pet smelling great for days!

The added benefit of an anti-bacterial will protect both you and your pet from the spread of harmful germs and bacteria. Used nation-wide by professional groomers that want a safe, gentle, natural shampoo."

Mom also recommends Coat Handlers.  It makes a wooly coat smooth, soft and shiny!  Poor Kozmo has a dry coat and Mom found out by the recommendation of her former Groomer that Bio-Groom products work wonders on his coat!  Bio-Groom's Coat Polish and Detangler is the BEST one she has ever used and it also works excellent on mats!

As for our favorite chew bones, none other than the completely safe and digestible Nyla-Bones!  As for treats, they are limited of course, only for special events.  When our Dad gets home from work, we give him lots of hugs and kisses then he rewards us with our favorite, Alpo Healthy Snacks.  There are NO meat by-products in these treats so they are the only ones we are allowed to have.  Then about an hour before bed time, Mom gives us all a carrot stick.  We love those also!  They are very healthy for us.

In the Winter time, Mom bakes us home made doggie treats!  They are YUMMY!  All natural too.  She does not allow us any meat or animal by-products whatsoever!  She loves us very much!  Her favorites recipes are here on our site too!

All of these coat care products and treats are available at  Pet Edge and J-B Wholesale Pet Supplies!  Click on the links above to go straight there and have all these products delivered right to your door so you don't have to leave your babies alone to go shopping!
