The Susan Lanci Travel Sling is one of my favorite products for small dogs. If you have a little one that loves to be held, this will really make your life easier. When you use this pet sling, your dog will still feel the comfort of being held right next to your body, but you will have the convenience and comfort of having both arms free.
I use this pet sling with Cookie (9 lbs.) whenever I take her to a consumer or trade show. She settles right into the sling and barely moves until I take her out. She will even tuck her little face in it and take a nap. It is so cute!
Because the sling is lightweight and breathable, it is very comfortable for both you and your pet. It folds up very small to easily pack for traveling or throwing into your bag. It is washable and made in the USA!
The designer told me that the sling can hold a dog as heavy as I can hold. The largest dog I have sold a sling to was 19 pounds. Cookie is 9 pounds and I can keep her in it for hours at a time.
If you have a small dog, you will love this product!

Susan Lanci designs some of my favorite products. The Sport / Travel Sling is one of them.
I travel quite a bit to various Pet Expos, Trade Shows and Dog Shows. My dog, Cookie, goes with more often than not. Cookie is a Mama's girl and wants to be held as much as possible. This can be a bit inconvenient, as you might imagine.
Using the Susan Lanci Travel Sling has made my life so much easier! Cookie feels like she is being held, but I have both hands free to help people, write orders, etc. She'd be happy to "hang around" all day in it.
The Travel Sling is made of lightweight, breathable material that can hold as much weight as you can. Cookie weighs about 9 pounds and does get heavy after a while, but the sling holds her with no problem. I have sold them to owners of heavier dogs, but I would say the ideal weight to be between 4 – 9 pounds.
The Susan Lanci Travel Sling is available in assorted colors, including Black, Gold, Brown, Purple and Pink. It is washable and Made in the USA.

The Furry Travelers To Go Bowl was created for dog owners who love to take road trips (as well as short car rides) with their furry companions. It fits conveniently into your car's 3 to 4 inch (standard and x-large) cup holder in either the front or back seat, and comes complete with a splash guard and lid to reduce spilling. The unique, patented design of the To Go Bowl also allows for storage of treats or dry dog food in its removeable base.
The To Go Bowl is an ideal and necessary travel tool. Your dog will stay well-hydrated throughout the trip without the frequent stops you previously required and since the bowl can also sit flat on the groud, it easily transitions from the car to the hotel room, dog park or home, whereever you are and wherever you are headed.
Available in eight great colors (Pearl, Pearl Blue, Pearl Lavendar, Pearl Pink, Red, Cream, Metalic Silver and Yellow), and retails for $19.99.
Don't leave home iwthout your To Go Bowl!

It's really important for pet parents to take care of their doggies and kitties teeth. Just like humans, pets also have very sensitive teeth that need a lot of attention and care, even when you're on the go! Single-use toothbrushes make it easy to provide dental care for your pets, especially when you're traveling. Each disposable toothbrush contains a mint-flavored toothpaste that automatically dispenses through the bristles with a push of your thumb. The disposable toothbrush effectively distributes hydrogen peroxide gel that removes tartar build-up and fights bad breath! Now for your next trip, you'll have two toothbrushes not to forget!

We lost our dog Sammy earlier this year. We had to make the difficult decision to put her to sleep. She had been suffering for years from serious back problems related to major surgery she had 10 years earlier. She also had recurring eye problems caused by a paralyzed facial nerve.
We did all we could to make her life happy over the years. This included building homemade ramps for 4 rooms of the house so she could sit and sleep with us, taking her for walks in a stroller so she could get fresh air, putting carpet runners throughout our tiled house so her little paws wouldn't slip out from under her while she walked. We gave her supplements, a radiant heat lamp, acupuncture treatments. She was truly a loved member of our family and we spared no expense or effort to make her happy and comfortable.
At 15 years of age, she was no longer our happy-go-lucky Sammy. She seemed uncomfortable and the only excitement she showed was at mealtime. Other than that, she didn't wag her tail or even want to be in the same room with us. Given her health history, we discussed that we would not put her through another surgery, should that need arise.
When she developed another serious eye problem requiring surgery, we discussed the situation with her doctor. Our wonderful vet assured us that these were all signs she was ready to move on. She was no longer enjoying her life. I heard another vet once say that it is better to end a dogs life too soon than to risk ending it an hour too late.
While this made our decision easier, it did not make the loss easier. For all but the last few months of her life, she was the happiest, friendliest dog we had ever known.
(This blog entry started out to be about a pet product and I'm not sure what got me on the subject of Sammy, but I am going to leave it in case someone out there is needing to make a similar decision about their beloved dog. Talk to your vet. They can help you decide what is best.)
The loss of a pet is tremendous and the sadness sometimes overwhelming, but it does get easier with time. Let yourself be sad, cry, go through the grieving process. They are members of your family and most likely loved as much as your two legged family members.
Finally, don't be afraid to eventually get another pet! I have spoken to so many people whose dog passed away years earlier. When I ask why they haven't gotten a new one, they say because they don't want to ever go through that type of loss again.
I can't imagine being a dog lover and choosing to be alone rather than have a dog bring you love, companionship and joy for so many years. Don't be afraid! It can help you overcome the grief and bring you years of happiness.
Just be careful not to expect your new pet to "replace" the old. Dogs, as people, are all different. One thing that stays the same, is the unconditional love and wet kisses you only get from a dog.
Our little Sammy
