The Wizard of Paws pet tips:

Making Sure Your Pet Is Healthy

There are three things; regular vet care, daily exercise and daily nutrition. It’s important that we remember treats that we love to feed our pet are part of nutrition. I love these CANA Singles Dog Treats, they are Limited Ingredient and Biologically Appropriate for dogs. Picky eaters that are choosy about what treats they like they even love them. Also, it’s good for dogs who have some food sensitivities. They start out with quality animal ingredients that get delivered raw to their own kitchen, and then they gently freeze-dry them using state-of-the-art techniques. They are loaded with goodness and full of natural flavor that every dog will love. For more information visit acana.com/singles-treats/

Grooming Tips

Grooming is important for a couple of reasons, we want to make our pets look pretty but it’s also good for their skin and coat health. There is this great new dog bathing tool called The Waterpik Pet Wand PRO It is known for the contoured shape of its high pressure WaterComb Spray that penetrates even the thickest of fur, rinsing away dirt and shampoo that other methods miss. The WaterComb Spray is great for deep cleaning of the back and legs, and the narrow spray allows for gentle cleaning of hard to reach spots and sensitive areas like the ears and eyes. The shower can be used both indoors and outdoors; just install the diverter to your existing showerhead or the adaptor to a garden hose for easy outdoor bathing. It costs less than $40 and is available at Walmart. For more information visit pets.waterpik.com

Older Pets/Health Problems

I have a senior dog and what I’m giving him is ElleVet Sciences hemp CBD chews and oils. There is a lot of different CBD products on the market today but the reason I chose ElleVet is because it’s the only CBD products to have gone through a clinical trial at Cornell Vet School on dogs with arthritis and endorsed by some of the best vets across the U.S. Over 85% of dogs on ElleVet show significant or dramatic improvement. No other CBD company has done a clinical trial, safety study, and metabolic testing so every dog is ensured to get right dose and the best possible CBD product. Dogs trusts owners and vets trust ElleVet. For more information visit www.ellevetsciences.com

Keep Pet Happy

Pets spend probably the most time sleeping. I got a great way you can give human quality comfort to your pet when they sleep. The Purple mattress is known for its scientific comfort for humans and whet they’ve done is taken that technology and created three different sizes of pet beds. Whats the magic of the Purple pet bed is Smart Comfort Grid allows airflow, so dogs stay cool during the hot summer months. It is gentle on dogs’ joints while also supporting the body. Dogs can chase squirrels in dreams happily, and still wake up well-rested. The Purple pet bed is also odor and accident resistant thanks to its ultra-durable, machine-washable protector, which means it’ll last without making homes smell like a doghouse.

About Kristen

I’m Kristen Levine, and I believe we need pets just as much as they need us. So I share stories, advice, and research to show how pets make our lives happier and healthier.

As a pet living expert, whether I’m reviewing a great new product, or telling an inspirational “tail” – I know pet parents seek content and connections with people who love pets as much as they do.

So I create watchable, sharable, fun content for Pet Parents and Pet-Positive Companies and promote engagement across multiple media channels. Feeling happier, healing faster and living healthier with pets – is a message I want to help get out into the world.

I especially love sharing weekly videos about living happier and healthier with pets. It’s funny when I look back at how this people-pet connection first started for me. I was working for the SPCA, advocating for pet adoption and pet lifestyle. I knew those pets needed us. Now I know we need pets just as much.

If I can help businesses, to help people, to help pets, then that’s more than work to me – that’s living.
