Melbourne dogs have been spoilt with the arrival of The Canine Wellness Kitchen , a food truck offering a gourmet menu catering especially for them! Co-founders Katie Crandon and her partner Laura Yeomans launched their food truck at the Hank Marvin Market in St Kilda last year after identifying a gap in the market. They were already running a healthy pet food business but found that our canine friends - including their Cocker Spaniel Freddie - were missing out on the “dining out” experience even when they were accompanying their owners.  "The idea [behind the dog food truck] is, you come to the truck, buy yourself a meal and a beer and the dog can enjoy the same food as what you're eating." says Ms. Crandon. The food truck serves a range of raw and dehydrated snacks made from “human-grade ingredients”. Meat and offal are sourced from reputable butchers whilst the fresh vegetables used are grown in their garden at home.  Our mission is “to get healthy food to pet owners...

The new KeepSafe Break-Away Collar by PetSafe is a clever little device that can save animals lives. Sadly many dogs needlessly die every year from strangulation when their collar gets caught whilst their owner is out. According to the American Pet Products Association (APPA), upwards of   26,000 collar strangulation accidents occur each yearly in homes and establishments around the country !  "A survey of veterinarians, trainers and doggy daycares found that more than 50% of pet professionals have experienced a collar-related accident with a dog . The number one most common way these accidents occur is when dogs are playing together and one gets snagged in the collar." This has happened to us a few times as our two Malinois love having a rumble and can easily get tangled in each other’s collars.  Luckily, we were around each time to set them free… Of course, you should also never leave a dog tethered in your backyard unattended ! Tethered dogs can wrap themselves ...
