Zack & Zoey Acrylic Poinsettia Dog Sweater, Small/Medium, Black


Pretty Holiday Sweater
Very pretty, but going by seller's sizing it's still too big for my shih tzu mix and
she doesn't really like the binding behind dog's legs in the back. I shrunk it by letting
it sit in hot water and then put in the dryer...it's now the correct size :) Very pretty for
Christmastime wear.
Love the coat!
Very pretty coat-the detail on the back is very glittery, very pretty and nice and noticeable-well made too. I have a 14.5 lb bichon and got the small/medium. It is a bit big but ok-probably could have gone with a small. The best part about this coat is the colors for the holiday-the black against a white dog is lovely and the design on the back is big and sparkly enough to see well and make it a holiday sweater that is a bit different from all the green/red ones out there...we both love it!
Nice!
This is totally well made, is beautiful, and has survived one season with my kitty. She wears it proudly around the holidays, and is the toast of the season.

Midwest Black Polyester Crate Cover for 42 Inch Wire Crates, 42 Inches by 28 Inches by 30 Inches


Does what it says.
It covered the kennel until she pulled it apart.

I agree with the other reviewer that it is flimsy material. It's like umbrella material. However, I knew this when I bought it. We have a husky/lab mix, she is about 40 pounds. We used it to help keep her quiet at night when she is supposed to sleep. It did it's job well for 2 months.

She would pick at the edges she could get and once she pulled enough the velcro that keeps the sides together (3 pieces on each corner side) would just easily pull apart. She pulled the entire thing in her kennel when we left last week for a few hours, and when we returned she was uncovered, and had literally ripped the entire front flap off the cover.

Yes, it is her fault, however, this could be made more sturdy. We know dogs chew, and are going to do whatever they find interesting. My suggestion would be to have the back completely stitched so there is no flap (our kennel has one door) and to have zippers on the...
Poor quality and poor fit
This product was poorly designed. A thin material that had velcro to attach the sides together. When the front or side was open as it was designed to be, the panel was placed across the top of the crate and exposing sloppy seams with lose threads all over. Furthermore, the fit was not exact. It was about 2 inches too short and didn't go to the ground to cover the entire crate.
I returned the product without any issues.
Great crate cover!
I have to say I am surprised at the poor reviews on this crate cover. I have two already and just ordered a third! I love them, They are light weight and easy to store. They clean up well and I love the Velcro corners. They fit the crates well and do everything I could ask of them! Great product!

Flexi Durabelt Retractable Belt Dog Leash, Extra Small, 10-Feet Long, Supports up to 18-Pound, Black


The quality is incredible
I can't believe how good this product is. The push button looks like its from a batman movie. The rope is very wide and strong. My rottweiler is 130 but he is much stronger than most 160 pound dogs. He is aggressive and I need the rope to return fast and this product leaves me at ease.
Quality Product
Not much to say really. It's a dog leash that hasn't broken yet and is doing the job well. It is exactly what I wanted.
Pink with BLACK belt
I have an identical one in black that I bought at least 3 years ago and is still working great after walks with a 100+lb dog. I got this for my smaller 75lb dog. Flexi brand has several products that look similar and when you are shopping for them this makes it really hard to select one. This leash has 'classic compact 3' stamped into the plastic housing and back when i bought the first one that is how it was listed but now flexi seems to be calling this same leash 'Durabelt'. This is further confused on amazon where some are listed under names that don't match the product photo or the packaging. The housing part of the leash matches the product pictured at the time of review however the belt is black on mine and the item pictured at the time I purchased showed a pink belt along with the pink housing.
I feel this is one of their more solid leashes and although it is large it does feel more compact than other models. For some reason it feels a little lighter than my other leash...

Casual Canine Polyester The North Paw Puffy Dog Vest, Medium, Black


Minimal padding.
I purchased this because I have a short hair dog, and I live in New England. It gets very cold here, and he will often shiver. There is so little poly-fill in this, that it's pretty much useless. I actually took it apart and put in more poly-fill. I also put in a small opening between the collar and the body for my dog's leash to go through so when he's on his leash it doesn't pull the collar of the coat off his neck.

This is good if you live in an area where it gets mildly chilly, but if you live where you might see penguins on snow drifts.. look for something better.

Or if you are looking for "my dog looks cute in it" more than "practical and useful" you might like this.
Very warm
The vest is very warm which is great. The workmanship is superb with tight stitches that don't tear and plenty of Velcro on the underside. I did need to shorten the length to fit my terrier mix that weighs 12 lbs, but is a long dog, thus needing this size vest. Highly recommend this company.

Comfy Cone Pet E-Collar, Medium, Black


The Comfy Cone
My dog had surgery that was going to require almost a month of the use of an e-collar while the leg healed. The first few days I tried to use the "more comfortable than the old ones" e-collar that the vet provided. My dog was more distressed by the e-collar than the surgery because it was so big and had no flexibility at all. Also, I think because it is see through it confuses the dogs more because they can see things but then bump into them!

I found the Comfy Cone online in an article by someone whose dog had the same surgery and the same issues with the vet-provided e-collar. From the moment I put it on my dog he has been GREAT with it! The cone is not as big as a plastic e-collar and I was afraid my dog may still be able to get to his leg, but he never tried and it is big enough to make attempts very difficult. The cone is very flexible so he can sleep in total comfort. Even though he does not have the ability to see out of the sides like the plastic, I think it is...
Good product, but the sizes are odd....
Great product, but the sizes are really odd. I tried the small and it was too small for a 10 lb dog, so I ordered the medium which looks like it's more for a 50 lb dog. There isn't anything in the middle. It would have been great, but the types of dogs that it will fit (according to the product description) did not seem accurate. Thankfully, I purchased through Amazon, so the return was easy. I just wish they had a size in between the small and the medium for a 10 - 20 lb dog.
Totally Recommended
I'd recommend this cone before anything else. Our dog (laborador)can actually see around this flexible cone. You can't beat it for the price. You can wash it when it gets dirty and it seems to keep it's shape. Our dog hasn't been able to get it off or reach his hot spots. We regret spending $50 on an inflatable, blue round tube that makes him look like he's ready to dive off into the lake. Not to mention he was able to get to his hot spots with this blue tube. The comfy cone is definitely the way to go.

Guardian Gear Nylon Classic Dog Car Seat Cover, 63-Inch, Black


Pro's and Cons
I bought this item for my Great Pyrenees/ Anatolian Shepherd who is about 100 pounds. I am using it in my 2010 Toyota Tundra Crewmax.

Pros:
Fits the back seat perfectly. There is no access hanging over the sies of the seat at each door but it does fit and does the job. After driving for hours with my dog I can see the particles from the bones and his hair. That is what would have been on my seat! So I am pleased with it. It is machine washable and real easy to take off and on. Has a zipper on one side of it which is convient since I have a 4 year old girl. I am able to unzip one size and put her car seat in without having to take the whole thing off.

Cons:
It comes with bungie cords that hook to some of the wholes. These bungie cords provide a little too much tension adn are wripping the holes. Thanksfully it is real strong on the outside layer and have not wripped through. But the little holes are now a tad stretched.

I would recommed this...
Works Great
This seat cover is just what I needed. It keeps my puppy in the back seat, keeps my seats clean, and prevents him from falling onto the floor if I should have to suddenly hit the brakes. It makes him his own little ceiling-less 'kennel' in the back seat. Pretty cool. I did have to add a couple bungees of my own, so it would be better if it came with more of those. But very happy.
Well made.
Thick and padded cover that has a nice durability and resistance to dirt. Easy to assemble. Would recommend others to buy it.

Casual Canine Polyester Basic Fleece 24-Inch Dog Hoodie, X-Large, Black


Failure to provide a size chart on Amazon is disappointing
There is no way to avoid discussion of the lack of a size chart when reviewing this Amazon purchase. I had to look elsewhere to find the Casual Canine size chart. I have no idea why such little information is provided on some products but it is a serious failure on the part of Amazon. Clothing should always have a size chart or a size chart link and this dog coat is no exception.

Harry is an aging 65lb Lab mix. I bought at XL and there isn't an inch to spare. It fits well but snuggly and keeps in body heat. I prefer the fleece to the bulkier quilted dog coats because I think the fleece is warmer. It will, however, offer little rain resistance. No problem since Harry hates rain but enjoys the snow and I bought this for those colder days.

The full velcro fastener makes it easy to close once you've managed to get the forelegs into the semi-sleeves which I think are a must. I wish there were a velcro tab to hold the hood onto the back because cute as it is, it is...

Avenue Design Retractable Tape Leash for Dogs, Black, Medium, 16 Feet


Very Nice Leash, but has a minor flaw
This leash is very nice, it fits very well in the hand and it is plenty long without being too long. There are two locking mechanisms, one which stays on as long as you press it in and another which is a permanent lock. The temporary lock is very nice as you can stop your dog quick if you need too, but then let it go and give it the full length again very quickly. The permanent lock is the only drawback, it is very stiff and poorly designed as it gets stuck and is hard to turn on and off. However I find the temporary lock is all that I ever need so I don't even worry about using the permanent lock. All in all I'd recommend this leash.
Great leash, but watch out -wrong size descriptions on webpage!!!
I gave it 5 stars because it is a great leash, if you get the correct size! However, I ordered M size because the webpage says suitable up to 35 pounds, when it arrived it says on it suitable up to 65 pounds( 30 kg). These descriptions are mixing up kg with pounds! So, I had to return my leash for a refund, and have to make a new order now!

Snoozer Pet Stow and Go 3-in-1 Pet Car Seat, Black


Godsend!!!
We bought this for a 800 mile road trip to fit in the back seat of our SUV between our two children. Our dog is a 6 lb puppy. Absolutely great storage below for all your pet's needs with an easy access velcroed flap so you dont' have to take the thing apart to get to something. You can kind of see it in the picture. The storage compartment has 3 sections for things don't get jumbled up. It separates from the top piece. Here's how we used this. We stored the bottom compartment in the trunk. We opened up the top unit so the bed laid out and created a bridge between the back seat and the front center console. It's sturdy enough so it doesn't collapse into the foot well. This gave our dog more room to stretch out and didn't interfere with the kids space either. Great product. Very versatile!
Poor Stability for Price
This seat is comfortable for my dog but not very "stable" per say. I have a 12 pound pomeranian and he gets very anxious while traveling so I was looking for something to make him feel more secure. The seat is really not very deep and where you have to slide in seat belt is not very "user friendly". This is way over priced for what it is. I would not recommend anyone to spend this much money on this.

Sherpa on Wheel Dog Carrier Bag, Medium, Black


Not all airlines accept this carrier
This review is for the MEDIUM size carrier, but if you're looking for an "airline approved" carrier, you should read it.
First of all, there is no such thing as and "airline approved" carrier. Here's why. Airlines are capricious about what carriers they will allow, this varies from flight to flight, and it has nothing to do with their written policies or the kind of plane you're in. If the flight attendants decide it doesn't fit under the seat, and they vary in their opinions about this, you can't fly with it. I had taken my dog in his wheeled Sherpa (medium) carrier on 15 trips in the 18 months I had the carrier, on US Air, AirTran, United, and Frontier (before Frontier quit allowing in-cabin pets). Most of the trips were on AirTran. But on an AirTran flight last year there were four people with pets on the plane, all with the same size Sherpa carriers (mine was the only one with wheels, and btw the wheels don't make the carrier that much taller, and the carrier will squish down...
Smaller than advertised
I just received this Sherpa pet carrier for an upcoming flight. Although it is well designed and built, it is much smaller than advertised. The dimensions that are listed are the exterior dimensions and not the interior dimensions. The problem is that the wheels that from underneath and pad inside of the carrier take up 2.5 inches of room. And the exterior length is an inch shorter than listed. Not bad if your pet is smaller than those measurements, but important to consider when buying. I am going to opt for a carry model by sherpa instead of the wheeled version. The larger wheeled version is pushing the limits of the recommended size by the airlines (and is not in stock anyhow). Well built, nice looking and an instant hit for my pooch, but just to confining for her size. My Papillion is 11' high and under 9 pounds with a length of 16". I measured 17" long x 11" wide by 8" tall on the interior.
Sherpa On-Wheels Pet Carrier - Medium
Its the ONLY way to fly with your small or medium pet
I am a pembroke welsh corgi breeder. I fly to dog shows quite frequently. I HATE to fly them down below. First it's risky, you never know for sure what will happen to the pet, second it's expensive. My corgis are pretty big around thirty lbs and I get them in this bag. No they can't stretch out but being cramped for a few hours is beter than being totally scared in the belly of the plane. I am there with them and give them cool water and treats. For heavy dogs the wheels are a must. YES the bag CAN tip over I STRONGLY suggets you get your dog used to the bag, which means put them in and out of the bag, wheel them around and tip them over. Give them LOT'S of treats in the bag, they will be great flyers. I have never had a dog come out of the bag in pain, or looking like a pretzel. After years of travel with many corgis, I noticed that the bottom has started to wear and the wheels are now misshapen. I'm sure thats from lot's of hard use, so after probably ten or so years of using this...

Out! 120 Count Waste Pick-Up Bags Refill for Dogs, Black


Perfect size
So glad I found this product on Amazon. They are the perfect size for my small dog's "business" as most standard poop bags seem to be an excessive waste of plastic. I used to buy them at Target until they stopped carrying it. I'll be buying them from Amazon from now on. Sometimes I wonder why I bother going anywhere else!
Wish these didn't sell out so quickly!
These are the only waste bags I like. I've tried many brands, colors. and styles and keep coming back to these black Out! bags as they're more opaque and heavier than competitors' bags.

Aria Polyester Canine Royale Dog Bowtie, Small, Black Satin


Looks a bit like a priest's collar
I liked the idea of a collar with the bowtie (so dapper!) but mostly when it's on the dog you just see the thick white band of collar and not the bowtie. Basically looks like he's wearing a priest's collar.
Cute but too big for my chihuahua
It is extremely difficult to find something small enough to fit the tiny neck of my 3.5 pound Chihuahua including this one. The Velcro made the strap around the neck made it too stiff to curve. I wish the neck length range was advertised in the description which would have helped to figure out fitment better. I'm going to try to give this away to another dog that's a little bigger. Delivery itself was smooth and timely.
Cute on the Dog
I ordered this the week of our wedding and chose it over others because the shipping choice would get it to me before the wedding. It looked super cute on our doggie but I do wish that the bowtie was stiffer and had more shape to it. The droopiness you see in the picture is true to the real thing and no amount of adjustments will get it even.

Casual Canine Polyester I Bite Dog Tee Shirt, Medium, 16-Inch, Black


Very cute!
Bought this for my wheaten with some skin allergies that leave her needing to wear a shirt throughout the day. She is around 30 pounds and the medium just barley fits her, but will keep it because she doesn't mind the snugness. I would order up a size next time. The glow in the dark wording is useful for nighttime. The fabric is very soft and comfortable for her as well!
OK shirt, glow-in-the-dark lasts
I bought this for my boyfriend's dog, and old and balding dog who needed a new shirt ASAP. Considering the dog's bite-ful glory days, this was a comical shirt that suited him. The glow-in-the dark has been the coolest quality of this shirt, making the dog much more visible from evening on. I have actually managed to not trip on him now in the hall haha. Good t-shirt for us.
I bite
This T-shirt was the perfect size, It is funny the looks my dog gets when we are going for a walk, He looks so cute everybody wants to pet him, But then they see the writing on the shirt. And jump back ...i
tell them don't worry it's okay it's only a joke.....
