In February 2005, at the age of 5, Timber came to
Zeetlegoo’s Pet & People Store, and he has been toughness testing toys and taste testing treats ever since. |
|
The following products have
passed Timber’s rigid testing standards, and have gained the honor of displaying a
Timber Tested and Approved Stamp: |
|
Treats/Foods |
|
http://www.nuprosupplements.com/ - A joint/coat supplement
containing glucosamine, MSM, and Ester C in a base of liver,
kelp, flaxseed, bee pollen, plus natural enzymes – the
powder can be mixed with water to make a liver gravy. Timber usually follows
us around the kitchen watching the entire mixing process
each morning and evening. |
|
|
www.merrickpetcare.com Merrick
makes treats (Snozzles, Knuckle End Bones, Rollos, Flossies)
gourmet dry and canned foods. So far Timber has tried the Wingalings, Smothered Comfort,
Senior Medley, Brauts-N-Tots, Grammy's Pot Pie and Thanksgiving Dinner canned
varieties, and he practically licked a layer of stainless
steel off his bowl making sure he got every last drop. Best
of all, ALL Merrick products are MADE IN THE USA! |
 |
|
www.naturapet.com Timber is currently eating a mix of
Innova Senior Dog and Innova Large Breed Senior. This
mix has helped Timber slim down to a svelte 74 lbs.
Additionally, his seal of approval is on Mother Nature’s PB
Treats
and Mother Nature’s Carrot Cake Treats. (In fact all
five cats and the dog (Timber) in the Keane household are
currently eating a Natura product.) |
|
|
www.nutroproducts.com Large Breed Senior Food - the first food Timber ate when we got him in December 2004,
and therefore, the first Timber Approved Product. |

Toys |
|
| Kong Tennis Squeaker in the large size. Timber has had this ball
(and played with it extensively) since Christmas 2005 |
|
| Votoy Grrr-emlins latex monsters are extremely tough toys, but
beware, some dogs are afraid of them. Timber has had his Grrr-emlin, Booglin, since May 2005, and the toy is still entirely intact. |
|
|
Timber has certain toys that he babies. His favorite
toys are plush, like this Zanies Megabone. He is on
his third Megabone in two years - which is excellent
longevity for a stuffed toy. The first one got washed
7 times before it finally got a tiny rip. Once it had
a tear in it, Timber took about 3 minutes to extract all the
stuffing out of this toy. |
 |
| This
is the latest, greatest Timber toy. It is the Kyjen
Grunting Spider. This toy has a tiny squeaker in every
other leg, a louder squeaker in its head, plus a rattle and
a grunter in the belly. He loves to hold it in his
mouth and whip his head around so the legs hit him in the
cheeks. ???? It's a dog thing. |
 |
|
Other |
|
| We use Bark-2-Basics shampoos
on Timber, (www.senproco.com/bark2basics) and we have been using these products in our grooming area since December 2004. Zeetlegoos sells several professional formulas of
Bark-2-Basics. These shampoos and conditioners are concentrated, so one 16 oz bottle of concentrate mixes up into 2 gallons of shampoo! |
|
| We also use Ice-on-Ice Leave in Coat conditioner, from Chris
Christensen Systems. This product keeps the sand from sticking in Timber’s fur, and prevents static that causes his fur to pick up debris and bring it in
the house. In addition, it makes his fur silky, so that tangles don’t develop as easily. (www.chrissystems.com/iceonice1.htm) |

Why We Don't Sell Live Animals at Zeetlegoo's
Do you
know about puppy mills? If you don't - and even if you do -
then you've got to watch this undercover video from the
Humane Society of the United States:
http://humanesociety.org/stoppuppymills
Puppy
mills are large scale operations that force breeder dogs to
produce litter after litter to support consumer demand for
puppies. Puppies sold in pet stores or through Internet
sites often come from places filled with suffering, disease,
malnutrition, and loneliness. And the puppies themselves
are prone to a variety of diseases due to the conditions in
which they were raised. Some die within days or weeks of
purchase.
Zeetlegoo's does not sell any live animals and we hold pet
adoptions regularly to help find permanent homes for the
multitude of homeless pets in the area. |
