In regard to traveling with pets, this collapsible dog crate helps your pet to feel safe and secure in their new surroundings.  Whether you go to your in-laws or camping, this crate will become your dog’s home away from home.  When you train a new puppy to a dog cage or crate as to where they sleep, it becomes like a safe haven or den where they feel secure.

This crate comes in Pink Camo or Green Camo.  There are 4 pockets, 2 on each side.  On 3 sides the window coverings roll up over mesh windows so your dog can see out.  The mesh door will roll up and is secured with velcro.  This comes with a matching carrying case that has 2 pockets and a handy shoulder strape.  There are 4 stakes to stake the corners of the crate if you are outside.  There is a faux sheep skin pad inside that is washable.   The outside material is like a tent and can be sponge cleaned.

Best Dog/Child Indoor Gate

By 3 Comments

On a personal note, my husband & I keep our 2 Shih Tzus in our bedroom, where the doggie door to the outside is located, while we are at work so they cannot get to the rest of the house.  We have used a couple of cheap plastic pet gates that never seem to work well or last.

With my business, I have the opportunity to view several dog gates and compare prices and product styles.  This is the best dog gate around.  It is so easy to install, no tools required, and easy to change from opening to opening.  If you love to take your dogs in your car on trips, this can easily be taken with you.

It is a metal security latch gate which opens easily with one hand in both directions.  A stopper mechanism allows the gate to be propped open at a 90-degree angle for easy walk through access.

Overall dimensions are 30-35 1/2″ wide x 29″ high x 2″ deep.  The slats are only 2″ wide so a child can’t get their head stuck.  There are also extensions that add 5 1/2″ to the width of the gate and up to 3 extensions can be added to each gate.

Listen and watch the video demonstration to see just how easy and great this gate is:

How To Identify Nutgrass

By Leave a Comment

You may have nutgrass and don’t even know it. Definitely do not let it get this big with the seed heads. It is best to apply the Sedgehammer when there are only 2-3 leaves. By adding the surfactant, it will stick to the plant without having to let it get taller.

Don’t try to pull them out. They have tubers (nuts) underground that send off shoots so if you pull one out, you have simply broken off the connection to the next one that will definitely find its way to the surface! I have personally used this product with great results. It took a couple of years of diligent spraying but I don’t have the problem anymore.

Get Rid of Nutgrass!

By Leave a Comment

I have a lot of customers who have nutgrass and there is a perfect solution.

Sedgehammer is a product from Gowan Company. It was originally a Monsanto product called Manage and they sold the technology to Gowan.

Here are the instructions for successfully eradicating your property from the Yellow & Purple Nutsedge, Nutgrass:

This is a wonderful product for the control of yellow & purple nutsedge.
When I re-did my flower beds and disturbed the soil down deep, the terrible nutsedge emerged.
After consistently spraying every time I saw one pop up through the soil, I got rid of them.
This product works better if you can spray when the nutsedge is not taller than 2” tall or it will take longer to work.

You have to mix this packet in one gallon of water with 2 teaspoons of NONIONIC SURFACTANT * (that is the Spreader Sticker which makes the product stick to the weed). Periodically as you are spraying, be sure and shake the pump-up sprayer to keep the mixture agitated. This is safe in all grasses.

Give yourself some relief from these troublesome weeds-get a packet of Sedgehammer today!

You may have to reapply in 6 to 10 weeks but eradicating these weeds is worth it.

Interested in Sedgehammer, check it out.

Next, I’ll publish information for fleas & their eggs.
