We were teased with a few nice days of weather and it is now back to cold and yuck. With this means no or shorter outside time for Piper and only outside time if she is wearing some type of dog clothing. She has lots of energy and always needs to be doing something, so that means that she has spent time recently chewing on her Himalayan dog chews!
These chews are safe, healthy, and an excellent option for gross rawhide. The Himalayan dog chews are available in three sizes, Piper does perfect with one of the pieces for the small. Duke has no interest in them, but a large would be good for big dogs.

Dogs & Beds
I've learned that dogs have their own opinions when it comes to dog beds. We have a handful of beds around the home and it seems like Duke and Piper choose a different one every day.
The strangest things regarding Poochieheaven's two clowns is that Duke loves the little beds and Piper loves the big dog beds! Other days, such as yesterday, a certain birthday dog decided to lay on a bed we have had for almost a year and he has never laid on.
See below for a few pictures of my two clowns on dog beds that don't just look right!

Potty Training Puppies
One of the hardest and most frustrating things to owning a new puppy is the house breaking.
But we have a few items that will help you keep your sanity. The first are male dog belly bands. These are obviously for male dogs, but they go around their belly's and cover were they pee, so that for training puppies, if they do try to pee, they pee in the dog belly band and not on your carpet. These are also great for older dogs that have issues with marking furniture- either at your house or when you visit other people's houses. There are several different styles and sizes of the belly bands, so you will be able to find one that works perfectly for your dog!
For those with little girls, a belly band won't do, but at Poochieheaven we have a grand selection of dog panties. A dog panty will help those with female dogs as they will cover the back ends and prevent your dog from peeing on your carpet. I've also been told that dog underwear may also help to potty train your dog as they do not like the wet on them if they do go in the panty. There are several different types of dog panties, from cute and frilly, to more functional and boring.

Yorkie Fashion
Yorkshire terriers also lovingly called as yorkie and they are adorable little darlings that have been companion dogs for a long time now. As petite as they are they also need the same pampering that any other human baby would need. Also they easily feel the need to be cozy at temperatures that are considerably low. Natural protections do exist in the form of dog fur but their bodies give similar kind of response when exposed to outside temperatures and need dog sweaters.
So if you are carrying an umbrella or wearing a raincoat to protect you from rain they would as well choose to have the same kind of protection. Thus it is imperative for you as yorkie owners to dress up your cute little angels in dog clothing that not only would provide the necessary warmth but will also make them look like actual angels from heaven.
Yorkies look elegant as it is, and when additionally decorated in colorful and funky clothes they would essentially be the center of attention no matter wherever they go. It is bound to be the most picturesque sight. Lovely dresses for female yorkies along with cute bow on the forehead is something one can just not let go off admiring. Even shopping for yorkie dog clothes is mighty entertaining and fun and you would love to experience it again and again. Your neighbors and friends are going to be stunned and fascinated by your stylish pooch’s wardrobe and would want to own a yorkie just so that they can dress and decorate the lovely little creatures.

Trachea Free Dog Harnesses
For those with small dogs, you know that it is important when walking your dog to have them wear a dog harness instead of a collar. This is due to the fact that a collar pulling against a dog's trachea can cause major damage. Even some dog harnesses can be dangerous as they are not low enough. At Poochieheaven, we have one of the best on the market for trachea free dog harnesses- Ultra Non-Choking Dog Harness by Doggie Design.
This harness if made to sit very low on your dog's neck so that it does not affect your dog's trachea. It is easy to put on with a velcro and snap closure, and is available in ten colors and four different colors.
Poochieheaven has a great selection of dog clothing, dog beds, and dog carriers!

Tasty Thursday: Canned Pumpkin
One of the best things I've found for helping me control Duke's upset tummies is canned pumpkin for dogs. It is full of fiber, which helps to regulate Duke's digestive track.
It is also great for those dogs that get a little clogged up!

Carry your pets on-board with airline approved dog carriers
Carrying pets in cute and adorable little bags are the ‘in thing’ with famous people. This trend has caught upon the society in no time and you see numerous people carrying their charming little puppies in handy dog carriers that serve well for transporting the dog along with you while you are on the move. Pets are very close to many owners and the owners as well find it hard to spend time apart from them. In such instances, dog carriers come well into their rescue and help them carry around their pets in attractive pouches that also double as a handbag.
Sometimes we would love to take our pets with us on our holidays and long distance travel. For such traveling one needs to essentially carry their pets in airline approved dog carriers. There are only a handful of brands that are airline approved as dog carriers and you need to find the right vendors who make these dog carriers easily available to you.
While carrying a dog that weighs within 12pounds is easy with a carrier bag that may hang on the shoulder, for bigger dogs you have the choice of carrier bags that come with wheels and trolleys that could be easily dragged around. Measure your dog weight and length along with the height before you place an order for the perfect fit dog carrier that is also airline approved. You could choose dog carriers that have cushioning material within, that gives the much needed comfort for your pooches in them and also make sure that they are well ventilated and made out of a fabric that allows a light feeling and is able to allocate a constant flow of fresh air.

Comfortable Dog Harnesses
Dog harnesses are well preferred than dog collars these days due to the harm that a dog collar may bring upon your lovely little pooches. Dog collars happen to concentrate all the strain on the neck and with sudden jerk movements can cause unseen adverse effects on either the trachea of your pooch or incur unwanted and painful neck and back injuries. It is well advised to use a dog harness instead because it is like having the weight of the yank and the pressure applied during movement is concentrated on a larger and stronger mid-area of the body.
If you are a dog lover, the last thing you need is to hurt your dogs. Although you might take utmost care that your pooch does not face harsh handling in any case, there might be instances where the extension cord gets stuck somewhere and your pooch tries to free from it thus causing hurt to its neck. Dog harnesses on the other hand gives a firm and stronger grip to the dog and is rather too comfortable as compared to a dog collar.
You have a variety of dog harnesses available in the market today in various colors and sizes. They also adorn beautiful designs to make them look extra stylish and special. Your pets would love to walk around in comfortable harnesses rather than collars. Overall dog harnesses are much preferred since they do not cause any kind of external skin or internal organ damage to dog necks be it a small or a big dog.
