 JENNIFER'S FAVORITE DOG SUPPLIES

Here is a list of my FAVORITE DOG SUPPLIES for you to choose from...

Dog Training Clicker
This is an indispensable tool for obedience training and problem solving because your dog learns that the noise it makes is associated with a food treat.  It will help your dog learn simple to complex behaviors faster and with more precision.  Click HERE for more information about Clicker Training.
Gentle Leader Headcollar
Where the nose goes, the body follows. That's why head halters are used on horses, it takes very little strength to control a large animal by the head versus the neck. With the Gentle Leader Headcollar, if your dog tries to pull ahead, his nose and head will turn back to look at you, making it virtually impossible for him to drag you down the street.  It provides immediate, humane control that eliminates pulling and lunging on the leash.
Easy Walk Harness
The Easy Walk Harness is a front attachment harness that is designed to gently discourage your dog from pulling while walking on a leash. It works similarly to the Gentle Leader Headcollar.  And, it’s easy to use,  and requires virtually no acclimation period or specialized training. 

Treat Pouch
Can’t keep your dog away from the pocket you put all those treats in? After years of treat handling inconvenience, renowned dog trainer Terry Ryan designed this treat pouch. In addition to creating quick and easy access to treats, the pouch closes with a touch, and stays closed, keeping dog noses out!
Long Training Leash

A sturdy twenty foot leash is an essential item as it allows you to work on commands such as "come" and "stay" at a distance and around distractions, but in a completely controlled manner.

Kong Dog Toy

These virtually indestructible toys are a must for any puppy owner, as they can be stuffed with canned dog food, soft cheese, peanut butter (my favorite!), yogurt, and treats for hours of chewing enjoyment and mental stimulation.

Buster Cube

This an another type of mentally stimulating dog toy that can keep your dog occupied for a substantial period of time, plus it allows your dog to use his own natural working instincts if you fill it with his regular dog food.  The food is slowly dispensed from the cube as your dog pushes and rolls it about.

  

Poochie-Bells, the only designer doggie doorbell

Poochie Bells

Teach your dog to ring a bell to let you know when they need to go outside.  My dogs ring the bell every time they need to use the restroom outside.  Training for most dogs is relatively simple - simply ring the bell just before opening the door to let your dog outside.  In a few weeks, your dog will start ringing the bell on his/her own.  In some cases, especially if your dog is initially unsure of the bell, you can use food treats to reward them for touching the bell and then progress from there.  

Fleabusters

This is an all natural flea control product.  Once per year, I sprinkle this product on my carpet, brush it in with a push broom, and my household is 100% flea free.  I do not use any other products to control fleas in my home.  I would swear by this stuff!

Bitter Apple

This is another must for puppy owners! Bitter Apple is a non-toxic, but awful tasting, deterrent that can be sprayed on just about anything -- from wood to carpet to furniture to children's toys to human hands -- and it deters your dog from chewing on these items.

Midwest Training Crate

A sturdy crate that allows for maximum visibility is a great tool for containing a puppy  when you cannot supervise them, during the night hours, or when you are away from home for short periods of time.  Crates tend to cut housebreaking time in half, and can help solve behavior problems such as chewing, digging, and barking.
