Make Your Own Sweet Potato Dog Treats

Make Your Own Sweet Potato Dog Treats

By Becky Striepe on February 10, 2012

I was at the grocery store the other day shopping for the week and I popped into the pet aisle to grab a can of wet food for our pup who’s being a little finicky about eating lately. It was right there that I spotted them: organic cans of pureed pumpkin and sweet potato for dogs!

Nice try, Fresh Step! Luckily, there are lots of actual eco-friendly kitty litter options out there. What sort do you use?

Reuse Old Socks: DIY Dog Toy

Reuse Old Socks: DIY Dog Toy

By Paula Mitchell Bentley on May 11, 2009

This is a great way to use up those socks and fabric scraps without throwing them away. Animal shelters, dog foster families and rescue foundations are always looks for toys for the dogs to play with as well. If you don’t have any dogs, consider making these chew toys up anyways and donating them. These toys save money and rescue items headed for the landfill into a new use. If they’re going to eat your socks anyways, you might as well just give the socks to them!
