Pet Products I Love
Below you’ll find a list of products that I actually use in my own home with my own dogs. We don’t list any products that we don’t actually use. Each product has been thoroughly tested and loved by our family before sharing for yours.

I get a lot of questions on products we use, to make it easier to reply to those I sat down and made a list of our favorite items for our top asked-about categories.
I’m very picky about what I give my dogs; after lots of research and discussions with their care team of vets, we make sure they eat healthy, have treats they gobble up and love (even picky Maggie), and toys they love and last in our household of guest dogs too.
Some of the companies (like their favorite toys from Pet P.L.A.Y, the CBD Maggie takes, Skouts Honor, Ziwi, and Diggs has been kind enough to provide discounts and coupon codes we can pass down to you!

Probiotics + Oils
Both dogs are on probiotics. Puppies should be on them daily in my opinion as they love to put dirty things in their mouths and we need to keep them healthy. Probiotics have a ton of health effects for dogs. just like they do for us. Maggie is on them 3-5x a week to keep her gut healthy and stool formed. If either dog has an upset tummy I give double the dose that day and the following day. Here’s our favorites:
Nordic naturals fish oil
Honest Kitchen’s Goat Milk
Good Guts for healthy mutts probiotic
Grooming
Having poodle mixes I get a lot of questions on how my dogs smell nice and don’t have knots, here are our top products we use to keep them tangle-free, keep their smiles bright, and their paws clean. If you’re interested in Skout’s Honor’s products you can Use code ELLIS20 for a discount on their site.
Not on the chart below is the health test I do for allergens and gut issues, Use code Maggie for $20 off Petmedella.com. It’s hard to put into words what I learned on this test, I took a chance on it and was so blown away I ordered for myself and not long later it solved ALL of Rossi’s skin issues (that no one could answer). Maggie has some weird tummy issues that no one has been able to figure out. We did it! This taught us what’s going on, what wasn’t performing properly in her body and what items she is sensitive to (from food to plastic). We are now on the road to get her gut working at 100% and that is AMAZING.
Lastly, pet insurance is health-related and so important! Read more on pet insurance here.
