Blue Buffalo ” Blue Mini Bars”

November 7th, 2010

We recently discovered Blue Buffalo’s, Blue Mini Bars.  We have been using Blue Buffalo Health Bars for a while now as treats for Rusty.  The Hearth Bars are about three times larger than the Mini Bars.  We have been breaking the Health Bars in half to make the bag last longer but no need to break the mini bars.   We now stock our selves with both giving Rusty a little more variety when it comes to his treats.

Prevention Medicine Yearly Cost

November 2nd, 2010

What is the yearly cost of prevention medicine for your Goldendoodle?

As many of you know owning a pet is not cheap.  We took Rusty to Petsmart Banfield today for his yearly heartworm checkup and we left with a year supply of prevention medicine.

Year supply of Heartgard – Heartworm prevention

Year supply of Comfortis – Flea prevention

Yearly heartworm check

Total Spent – $320.00

Overall not an outrageous cost for a year supply.

Heartgard – Heartworm Prevention

November 1st, 2010

We give Rusty Heartgard medicine to prevent heartworm disease.   I learned today that the manufacture requires that your pet get a yearly check for heartworms in order for you to buy the prevention ( Heartgard ) .    This is a nice yearly reminder to get your Goldendoodle check.  We buy a year supply and when the package is out we know it is time for his yearly checkup.

It is always better to be proactive rather than reactive.
