Pet Craft’s ‘Hide And Seek Plush’ Dog Toy

The Hide and Seek Plush Toys by Pet Craft come in a variety of different styles. But the main design of the toys is that they all come with one larger toy, which holds the remaining smaller toys that fit, or “hide,” inside.
The toys crinkle, and some squeak, as well, so that it stimulates your dog to try and get the toys out of the bag. If the toy is too easy, putting a treat inside would also be a fun game for your pet.

The Calming Cuddler Dog Bed from Petfusion actually encourages your dog to go through the digging motions before they lie down! It's perfect for the doggy digger in your life.
The bed comes with an excess of plush fabric on the top, designed to enable your dog’s digging and burrowing to their heart’s content.
The soft fabric also nestles beautifully around your dog, swaddling them into a comfy cuddle. The higher, cushioned sides are a wonderful built-in pillow option for your dog to rest their head upon.

The eufy Petcare Water Fountain is a great investment for pet parents who want to keep their dogs hydrated, and it's even great for cats, as well. It's perfect for multi-pet households.
The 5-tiered filtration system sifts out funguses like ringworm, something that could quickly escalate in a household of several animals sharing a water bowl!
Give this water fountain a try if your pets are finicky about their normal bowl, if you'd like to give your pets cleaner water, or if you'd like to cut back on refilling and cleaning your pets' water bowl so much.

Do you ever wish your dog could talk to you? Well, with a little training and some Dog Talking Buttons from FluentPet, they can!
You may have seen these buttons featured by Bunny the Talking dog who's gone viral on social media. Bunny is able to "talk" to her mom, Alexis, with the use of these word buttons. She steps on the buttons that play words to let us humans know what she wants to say.
Your dog may not master all of the complex thoughts that Bunny has. But they can certainly use buttons to tell you when they want to go out, when they want a treat, or when they're not feeling so well with a little bit of training.

PetFusion Hybrid Foldaway Dog Stairs

Dog stairs help pets ascend and descend to couches, beds, and furniture more gradually than jumping. Some pets suffer from arthritis, weakness, injuries, or just old age, and the kind of sudden impact from jumping off furniture can be very hard on their joints.
Unfortunately, stairs for dogs often take up a lot of space. Enter the PetFusion Hybrid Foldaway Dog Stairs! This staircase for dogs has a small footprint when condensed, and it doubles as an ottoman or side table.
Another very cool feature is that when it's expanded, it also doubles as storage! The product comes with a very sturdy, collapsible, structured storage tote, which tucks into the empty compartment the stairs would otherwise occupy.
