Piggie Parcel: Introduction To Forage parcel

Hi readers! Piggie Parcels kindly sent me their new box for 2019 to try with my piggies.















What is it? 
It is a forage box for young guinea pigs or guinea pigs who haven't had forage before. The forages that are in it are the most palatable for guinea pigs who are new to eating forage.

How much does it cost?
It is £12.50 from https://www.piggieparcels.co.uk/product/introduction-forage/ with FREE shipping. Piggie Parcels only ships to the UK

What is in it? 
Dandelion (30g)
Plantain (30g)
Strawberry Leaf (50g)
Beetroot and Parsnip (30g)
Carrot (50g)
Cut Parsley stalks (25g)
Flower Mix (50g)
Apple (25g)
All of this is dried!

What do I think? 
This is a brilliant box for anyone looking to try different natural forage with their guinea pigs. It is also suitable for rabbits which is great. It isn't expensive in comparison to other boxes made for rabbits and guinea pigs and the fact shipping is free is fantastic.

Would I buy it again? 
I would definitely buy it again and I am planning on trying some of their other boxes in the future.

NEW AND IMPROVED Halti Headcollar

Hi readers! The Company Of Animals kindly sent me some products to review after they saw my review of their old halti headcollar. This is my honest opinion of the new and improved headcollar. I am not being paid or anything to review this.

What has been improved on the headcollar? 
It has a new design for no pulling and better control over your dog. It is lightweight and has a fully padded noseband which has a reflective strip at the front. Just like the old version it has a safety link to attach to your dogs collar. The first thing I noticed when I took the headcollar out of the packaging was that the part that tightens to stop the dog pulling is a full loop round rather than just straight up the dogs face. I personally thing this is a great change and is kinder to the dogs face.

What do I think of the improvements? 
The improvements personally haven't changed much about the headcollar. The noseband is definitely better padded and the reflective strip is a great addition. It still stops Angel pulling and she still doesn't like having it put on (she doesn't like wearing her harness either).

I use the halti whenever I walk her and it really does help with her pulling. I would really recommend this to anyone whose dog pulls.
