DogBlog: A Dog’s Eye View Review FabuLeash

Fabuleash Fabulous Collection of Pet Accessories

Fabuleash makes pretty beaded dog leashes and collars for small to medium sized dogs.

Dog people know that there are many different dog personalities.  The cute little dogs are usually owned by cute people.  Cute people like cute accessories for their fashionable pets.

We have been contacted to review a dog leash.  This is our first review for a dog leash.  I was rather surprised to see this beautiful little leash with such a sturdy design.

The leash we reviewed is the FabuLeash (FAB) FUCHSIA.

“Blue Belle – You look marvelous!” 

Some dogs are athletes, some dogs are hunters, some dogs are guard dogs, and some dogs are couch potatoes.  If you want your dog to look like a movie star, this leash is for you.  The FabuLeash is a little small for our dog, Blue Belle, but it actually is strong enough.  The clasp is very sturdy.  It has a smooth, double-riveted handle.  It is durable, comfortable and stylish.  The leash is made of acrylic beads on a steel cable line that has been pull-tested to over 100 pounds.

“Put a little catwalk in your dog walk. . . and be the envy of the dog run, park or city streets with our doggy dazzler of a leash.  Now walking your beloved pet is more fun n’ fashionable than ever!”

The leash is recommended for dogs 25 lbs and under.  Blue Belle is over 50 pounds, so it is not really a leash for her.  I think it would be great for a smaller dog who wants to be the fashionable talk of the dog walk.

There is a warning that this leash is not for children under 3 because there are small parts, so it can be a choking hazard.

The DogBlog thinks this is a winner of a dog leash for fashionable pooches.

Dog Treat REVIEW – Grain-Free Lamb with Cranberry

Blue Belle was excited to see a package arrive especially for her, a dog treat ready for testing.  Today she is testing a grain free treat which is a perfect treat size.  A bonus benefit is that it helps clean teeth and it is USDA-inspected.  This healthy treat is made with lamb, cranberries, apples, vegetables, and parsley.

Product sent to us from: Chewy.com

Dog treats

Product name:  Fromm Four-Star Nutritionals Grain-Free Lamb with Cranberry Recipe Dog Treats

Ingredients: Fresh lamb, pea flour, potato flour, tapioca, whole peas, chicken fat, tomato pomace, fresh cranberries, sweet potatoes, carrots, apples, split peas, green beans, green bell peppers, celery, beets, parsley, lettuce, watercress, spinach

The first thing I look for is the ingredients and the country of origin.  YES! The package says “made in USA”.  This is so very important to us.  The price is very reasonable too.

We give Blue Belle the taste test with an added trick – place the treat on her nose with the command to wait.  Then we say “OK” and she snatches the treat.  We play this game with toys too and then she will toss the toy in the air.

The Fromm Four-Star Nutritionals Grain-Free Lamb with Cranberry Recipe Dog Treats was a great success.  It is the perfect size and Blue Belle really loves them.  Now when she is outside barking at the squirrel, I just say “come, Blue Belle, get a treat”.  Her ears perk up she runs right in.

We highly recommend this treat.  Visit the Chewy.com website for this product to read more reviews.

Pet Product Review – Blue Buffalo Wilderness Trail Treats

Blue Buffalo Review
Blue Belle Reviews Blue Buffalo Wilderness Trail Treats

Our new family member Blue Belle, the rescue dog, is happy to review her first pet product.  A package arrived from Chewy.com.  “How exciting a box just for me.  Let me get my paws at it! ”  In the box is a dog treat – Blue Buffalo Wilderness Trail Treats Chicken Jerky.

We have heard of Blue Buffalo dog and cat products, but never tried them.  Before making the decision to review this product for our precious pup, I wanted to make sure it was safe.  Upon investigation I was reassured to realize that Blue Buffalo is made in the USA.  Our beloved dog, Maggie, recently died from something she ate, so you can understand our concern.

Blue Belle absolutely loved these tasty treats.  Of course she did, she’s a dog! We loved the details and information about the Wilderness Trail Treats.  The treats are made with the finest natural ingredients.  According to Blue Buffalo, Wilderness Jerky is a wholesome treat that will help support your dog’s strength, health and vitality.  Again, something that this dog loving family is very concerned about.  We find ourselves reading all the details on the packages, to make sure our dog gets the best of everything. There are no by-products or artificial anything in Blue Buffalo Wilderness Trail Treats Chicken Jerky.

For those of you who need grain-free products, Blue Buffalo tells us that this is a perfect grain-free treat.  “High-quality poultry makes BLUE Wilderness Jerky the perfect treat for dogs who are fed a grain-free or raw diet.  It’s jerky with a wild side!”

The jerky is intended for intermittent or supplemental feeding only. Ingredients listed include chicken, dried cane molasses and salt. For maximum freshness Blue Buffalo instructs you to be sure to store BLUE Wilderness Jerky Treats in a cool, dry place.  To keep them as fresh as possible, they recommend refrigerating after opening.

Because the product is not cheap, it might be good to use some scissors to cut the jerky up into smaller pieces to make it last longer.  We think your dog would still be satisfied with a smaller piece.

We found this to be an excellent product and Blue Belle approved.
