Kong classic

Hi readers! I thought I would review the classic kong.

What is a classic kong? 
It is a way of feeding your dog to slow them down. It is also a great way of occupying them whilst you are eating or you have guests and your dog gets very over excited. Kong do make fillers for it but I just use Angel's normal food as she has a very sensitive tummy.

How much is it? 
It is £5.99 on Amazon UK for the large size.

Pros
1. Very durable.
2. Comes in different sizes.
3. Comes in different strengths.

Cons
1. Only comes in 2 colours in the adult ones (black and red) and 2 colours in the puppy ones (baby pink and baby blue).
2. Expensive.

My thoughts
This is great for all dogs. Angel is already on her second one as she outgrew the puppy one!

I hope you will try this with your puppy! Go follow Angel on Instagram: @angel_the_cheeky_labrador and Kong at @kongcompany

Kong Knots: Scrunch Knots Fox M/L

Hi readers! I thought I would review another dog product that Angel really enjoys.

What is a Scrunch Knots Fox?
It is a soft dog toy without stuffing, with a rope inside and a squeaker in it's head.

How much is it?
UK on amazon: £5.49
USA on amazon: $7.79

Pros

1. Durable.

2. Not too expensive.

3. Has no stuffing for them to pull out!

My thoughts

When I gave this to Angel she absoloutely loved it! She does get bored of toys quickly but still loves chasing it.

I would buy it again if Angel destroyed it (hopefully she won't any time soon!).

I hope you will try this with your dog or puppy! Go follow Angel on Instagram: @angel_the_cheeky_labrador

I CAN'T THINK OF ANY!

Eden dog food: Fish Cuisine

Hi readers! For a change I thought I would review a dog product. Here is the link to the food.

What is Eden dog food: Fish Cuisine? 
It is a natural dog food suitable for all ages of dogs. It is 80% fish and 20% vegetables which is a healthy mix.

How much does it cost?
It is £13.80 from Eden for 2kg (or selected pet shops).

Pros
1. Comes in different size kibble pieces.
2. Natural ingredients.
3. Made using only natural ingredients from the UK.

Cons
1. Expensive compared to more common dog food.
2. Hard to find in pet shops.

My thoughts
It is a good quality food. My Labrador puppy has a very sensitive tummy and all the other foods we tried with her (Skinners, Barking heads and James Wellbeloved non grain free) just upset her stomach whereas this didn't. It is also great as we won't have to change her to an adult food when she is older as it is suitable for puppies, adult and senior dogs.

I hope you will try this food with your dog(s)!

Hop To Forage: Forage Dice

Hi readers! Hop To Forage kindly sent me some products to review. Visit Hop To Forage here!

What is a Forage Dice? 

A forage dice is a cardboard box with holes in to make it look like a dice, stuffed with forage.


How much does it cost?
It is £4 which is a good price for it's size.

Pros

1. Brilliant size for guinea pigs and rabbits.

2. Would be great for hamsters and gerbils to hide in! 

3. Good amount of hay and forage inside

4. Most guinea pigs and rabbits like forage.

Cons

1. Wouldn't last long if you had lot's of small pets.

Delivery and customer service

Came four days after they posted it out. Delivery is done with Hermes or DPD depending on the weight. Hop To Forage were very helpful and friendly.

My thoughts

This is a great way to give your small pets forage. I gave it to Maisie and she ate all of the visible forage in one night which means the others will just have to eat the forage off the cardboard! 

Would I get it again? 

I would definitely get it again for the rabbits to try as well as the guinea pigs to have it again.

I hope you enjoyed this review and will try the Forage Dice with your small furries!

Hop To Forage: Scottish Oat Hay

Hi Readers! Hop To Forage kindly sent me some products to review. Here is their website

What is Scottish oat hay?
Scottish Oat Hay is exactly as it is title; Oat Hay that is grown in Scotland. Oat hay is the fresh stems of oats dried into hay.

How much does it cost? 
It is £3 for 100g.

Pros
1. High is fibre to help wear down small pets teeth.
2. Good quality.
3. Low in calcium so good for elderly guinea pigs.
4. It looks delicious because of it's green colour.

Cons
1. More expensive than other types of hay.
2. The oat heads could be fattening.
3. Thick stems which some guinea pigs or rabbits might not like.

Delivery and Customer service
Came in four days after they posted it out. Delivery is done with Hermes or DPD depending on the weight. Hop To Forage were very helpful and friendly.

My Thoughts

Good quality hay and very green. Well packaged and labelled, in a plastic bag. The guinea pigs really enjoyed it, as did the rabbits, which is surprising as they don't normally go for hay.

Would I get it again?

I would but only as a treat as it is quite expensive when you have multiple small pets. 

I hope you enjoyed this review and will try this oat hay with your small furries!

Hop To Forage: Dried carrot, Dried apple and Dried parsnip

Hi readers! Hop To Forage kindly sent me some of their products to try with the guinea pigs and rabbits. Visit Hop To Forages website here!

What is Dried carrot, Dried apple and Dried parsnip? 
It is a mixture of carrot, apple and parsnip, dried so it lasts longer, specially for small pets. It has no added ingredients.

How much does it cost?
It is £2.50 for 25g.

Pros
1. Healthy treat for guinea pigs and rabbits.
2. Easy to store in a small container once opened.

Cons
1. The apple and carrot are quite sugary (more than if it was fresh).

Delivery and customer service Came in four days after they posted it out. Delivery is done with Hermes or DPD depending on the weight.
Hop To Forage were very helpful and friendly.

My thoughts

It is quite expensive for the quantity but is very well dried and a great size for hand feeding. My guinea pigs and rabbits aren't a big fans of parsnip but loved the dried apple and carrot. 

Would I get it again? 

I would probably buy the individual bags of dried carrot and dried apple instead, as my pets don't like the dried parsnip. 

I hope you enjoyed this review!

Hop To Forage: Micro Timothy Hay Bale

Hi viewers! Hop To Forage kindly sent me some of their products to try with the guinea pig and rabbits.

 Here is Hop To Forages website

One of the products was a Micro Timothy Hay Bale. (pictured above)

What Is A Micro Timothy Hay Bale? 
A Micro Timothy Hay Bale is a miniature hay bale weighing  around 1.05kg or 1050g. It is designed for rabbits and guinea pigs. There are also Micro Hay Bales with herbs and forage mixed in.

How much does it cost? 
It is £5 which is a good price for most people when they want to give their pets a treat.

Pros
1. Easy to store due to small size compared to a normal hay bale.
2. Good quality timothy hay that is grown in the UK that is locally sourced by Hop To Forage.
3. Brilliant size for pairs or individual guinea pigs or rabbits.
4. Not very dusty so it is great for small pets who suffer from allergies.
5. Well compressed and held together with Baler twine like normal size hay bales.

Cons
1. Wouldn't last long with a group of guinea pigs or rabbits.


Delivery and customer service
Came in four days after they posted it out. Delivery is done with Hermes or DPD depending on the weight.
They were very helpful and friendly.

My thoughts
When it arrived I was surprised at how big it was as it looked a lot smaller online. The quality of the hay was good and even in colour.
It was packaged in brown paper which I then gave to Maisie to play with.
The guinea pigs really enjoy timothy hay and Maisie had some of the bale whilst I was taking photos and she was really enjoying it. My rabbits don't really like hay so I probably won't waste it on them!

Would I get it again?

Yes, I would as it is brilliant but would be better if the guinea pigs all lived together as then I wouldn't have to break it into three pieces. I would also recommend it to people looking to see what type of hay their small pet likes best. 

I hope you enjoyed this review and will go and check out Hop To Forages website and all their products!
