*Click a category link and it will jump you down the page to give you my recommendations.
Lead-Free dog bowls & Radioactive-Free cat bowls
Dog Vitamins & Pet Supplements
Pet Emergency: Id Tags, Harness, Dog Mask

Eco-friendly cleanings supplies
Non-toxic Mattress and bedding
Choose from several cat litter options that are Environmentally safe, biodegradable, Non-GMO, Fragrance-free, and dye-free. Also, a few automatic litter boxes that work with non-clay litters.
*I prefer to use companies that privately manufacture their food. Why? In 2007 hundreds of brands of dog foods were caught in a recall because they used 1 of the 2 major manufacturers.
Companies that privately manufacture their food tend to work closely with their suppliers, maintaining quality control because it is in their own facility, and batch-test their food BEFORE they release it for sale.
Cat food: 20 Recall-free cat foods from wheat and grain-free to cage-free and grass-fed cat food.
Raw, Freeze dried, and lightly cooked dog foods: These are the best dog foods I found in 2023.

Tennis ball replacement: This was my dog’s favorite ball! I liked it because it did not have the tennis ball material, which I heard can be bad for their teeth since he likes to squish his ball. They come in different sizes and have versions available like a glow-in-the-dark and a squeaker ball.
kickball size ball for dogs: Do you prefer your dogs to play with a bigger ball but your beach ball gets damaged quickly? This large dog ball would be a good replacement.

I wrote a quick blog that covers liver detox foods and recipes
Stress relief for Pets: Alcohol-free homeopathic dog stress remedy. *I suggested this to a neighbor whose dog was reactive (barking & lunging) on the leash. Once she implemented this remedy, she said her dog was much more pleasant to other dogs while on a walk, which decreased her stress as well.☺️ NOTE: if you, the owner, are under stress our pets do pick up on that. Here is a human stress relief supplement.

I have used it myself since I had it on hand and it helped me every single time! *If used on a regular basis vs. as needed, it should help deal with the underlying issue causing your pet’s digestive problems.

Green Tea and Bergamot, 16-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 2)
I ❤ this stuff! If it was sold as air diffuser, I would buy it and I don’t generally use any of that stuff in my house. My dog and I both don’t care for particular smells but this is one of the few things he will NOT turn his nose away from.

Smaller and lighter than this popular blender, great at blending frozen fruit, dates, and nut butter.

Plus they will let you know about future products and sales.
4 piece Cookware set is Teflon Free and Nickel Free cookware. I love these pots, they are heavy and pretty. Learning to cook without Teflon took some adjustment. Coconut oil didn’t help prevent sticking when trying to cook things like pancakes but vegan butter did. The control lids allow you to keep steam in or open it to release some steam. The best part is you can use the lid to strain out the liquid without dirtying a separate strainer.
Steamer insert: This nickel-free stainless steel insert will help you cook the healthiest food possible. This insert has several “ridges” to fit different-sized pots. I use it in my big pot featured in this picture.
