Happy Friday friends! Welcome back to this month’s installment of my puppy series with BJ’s Wholesale Club. Did you know October is National Pet Wellness Month? It’s also Halloween and who doesn’t love an excuse to dress up their pups in costumes? Heidi is going to be a cute little duck this year! As you can see by the photos above she is just thrilled about it! Since this month is wellness month, I wanted to share to share a few tips on how we keep our pups healthy with the help of our friends at BJ’s!
Wellness Tips for Dogs
This month is also a big deal in our home because it’s Henry’s 8th birthday! It feels like just yesterday I brought my little 4 pound yorkie puppy home with me! I have made it a priority in my life to always take good care of my pups because they are a vital part of my family. Today I want to share a few ways I keep up with their wellness- especially now that they are getting older!
- Quality Food– One of the first things I did when I got my pups was research high quality dog food options. Every pup has different needs but mine have done best on NUTRO™, which I buy at BJ’s. You can actually read all about it HERE.
- Dental Care– Another area that I have invested time and effort into is my dogs dental health. Yorkies unfortunately suffer from tooth decay so keeping up with their teeth is a must! I get their teeth professionally cleaned once a year and I brush them weekly. I recommend using EZ Dog Small Breed Toothbrush Kit from BJ’s. Not into brushing? No worries- BJ’s also carries Pedigree DENTASTIX Original Dog treats to promote oral health.
- Exercise– One of the reasons I wanted yorkies is the small amount of exercise they need. However, I do like to keep my pups active! We go on walks almost every day and/or spend time in the backyard playing.
- Quality Treats– This goes hand in hand with our high standard for dog food. If you have been following along my BJ’s dog series you know how much I love buying treats at BJ’s. One of the reasons is because they have such a great selection of treats. One of our current favorites are Claudia’s Cookies Dog Treats {available in store} because they are made with all-natural, high quality ingredients.
- Extra Love– What pup doesn’t want to be loved on? Henry and Heidi are constantly spoiled in our home with toys, comfy beds, and of course, lots of cuddles! We also try to treat them to a new toy every once and while like Loofa and Lampchop plush dog toy {available in store} from BJ’s!
