RedBarn Natural Treats

Today we went to Rural King and while shopping we came across some treats. These are made by RedBarn Inc. and I seen the stamp that said "Made in U.S.A." Thought, hmm let's see what these are all about. Ma picked the bag up and looked all over it to see the tiny letters that say "Produced in China" but it wasn't on the bag. She checked the other treats and they did't have it on them either. Sounded good to her so in the cart they went.


These are called "Wooly Bullys"! For those of you who don't know me personally, this is one of the names that my ma calls me. I have always been her wooly bully so I thought this treat was named after me. BOL! 

They are bully coated lamb ears. I am a die hard chickyum lover but I do love my lamb. My first thought was "what does bully coated mean?" This treat is loaded with natural antioxidants for the joints. Sure I am always up for trying out a new treat. I consider myself a professional treat tester because I am picky. It's got to be good for me to eat it. 
I just read where the bully came from
Did you know that lamb ears are more nutritious than regular raw hides? They have more protein in them. These treats are slow roasted so they are crunchy but not overly hard. They are the pawfect size for most sized dogs. I wouldn't recommend them for dogs who gulp their treats. There may be a choking hazard. If your dog like to savor their treat like I do or is small, medium, large or older then this is a great treat. 

The ingredients on the bag is lamb ears, beef liver, egg white, beef pizzle, chickyum fat, chickyum cartilage, salmon oil, and more. I know what you are saying, you want to know what beef pizzle is right? I had to google that word. We will say it's bully stick gravy and its good. Chewing on Wooly Bullys also promotes healthy teeth and gums. 

Honestly I could have ate this whole bag by myself and my brudder, Scooby Doo and sissy spaniel agreed. They cost about $6.00 at Rural King but I have seen that you could order them through a variety of places online. 

I give Wooly Bully's by RedBarn pet Products 4 paws up because I had to do  the happy roll after eating them. You can view their whole line of products on their website RedBarn. They also have a reward program you can sign up for on the site that sends you contest updates, freebies, product discounts, and they will be adding more soon.

Seresto Flea/Tick Collar- Product Review

When I went to BarkWorld in Sept 2012, I was chosen to be on a Bayer test panel for a flea collar called Seresto. At first, I thought "hey I don't have fleas"! But there is a reason for this. I use another Bayer product to prevent them. The only thing I don't like about using my topical treatment is that when I get my monthly treatment, I am not allowed on the couch until my fur dries. The microfiber couch will suck the flea treatment right off my fur and it leaves a greasy feeling spot. My first question on this collar was "can I get on the couch right away?" They said "Yes" that was music to my ears! 
Disclaimer: I was given this Seresto Collar as a demo from the Bayer Company and I am expressing my own opinion on the product. Some information came from the Seresto website. 

#Seresto flea collar for large dogs
I am a one collar girl so I didn't know how this flea collar would feel considering most flea collars are stiff. Ma put the collar on me and I didn't mind having the second collar. It is lightweight yet durable and it came with 3 reflective clips that give it the bling look. Now are you ready for the BIG news?

This collar not only REPELS and KILLS fleas, ticks and lice but it does it for up to 8 MONTHS! Yes,up to 8 MONTHS! It's also Waterproof so you don't have to remove it when you get baths or go swimming. Its odorless, non greasy and can be used on puppies as young as 7 weeks and kittens as young as 10 weeks. 

This collar has been used in the UK for yrs and has been deemed safe and effective but it was released in the US in Feb. 2013. If you register with Petparents you can save $20.00 off the collar. The collar retails for around $70 but when you add up how much you are spending for your current flea/tick treatment you will see the savings. If I were to use Frontline Plus and bought it at Walmart at $42 for a 3 pk that would be over $100 for a 8 mth coverage and we have to remember to get my monthly treatment. With the collar you put it on and forget about it for 8 mths.

The reflective tags makes it easy to see me at night. I am invisible to fleas and ticks.
