Brushing Up on Oral Care for Cats

by James Brandly @ TropiClean Pet Products for Dogs and Cats

Tue Sep 12 06:23:08 PDT 2017

Did you know that cats are North America’s most popular pets? Over 30% of households in North America own a cat. (A). Did you also know that only 8% of cat parents currently own a dental product for their furry feline? (B) Despite cats reigning in popularity among pet parents, we lack the responsibility of taking care of their oral care. Cats, unlike dogs, groom themselves and at times can be finicky to deal with when it comes to hygiene. How can we keep up with our cat’s oral care without the claws coming out?   Brush your cat’s teeth – If they allow you. We can’t promise you’ll be scratch-free. Brushing their teeth is the most effective way to clean their teeth.   Oral Care Gel – No brushing required. Simply apply one drop of Clean Teeth Oral Care Gel for Cats to both sides of their mouth. They will lick their lips and move the gel around their mouth, creating a brushing effect.   Water Additive – Up to 12 hours of fresh breath. Perfect solution for cats and their people who seek a simple and safe way to address oral care. Simply one capful in their water bowl provides up to 12 hours of fresh breath and helps fight plaque and tartar. No brushing required.   Oral care is about more than making your cat’s smile sparkle-it’s an important component of their overall health.

Keep Halloween Stress-Free

by James Brandly @ TropiClean Pet Products for Dogs and Cats

Tue Oct 31 13:09:31 PDT 2017

Trick-Or-Treat! Halloween is full of costumes, candy, laughter, and scares. The holiday is meant to be fun and festive, but for some pets, the holiday can be overwhelming! Here are some tips to make Halloween not so scary for pets and their people. Candy Galore! Make sure you don’t catch their paw in the candy jar! – Keep a close eye on your pet to make sure they didn’t find the kiddo’s stash of candy, treating themselves to big stomach-aches or more serious issues. Growl Away the Ghouls! Don’t let them scare away the Trick-Or-Treaters! – If your furry friend enjoys laying in the yard most the day, we recommend bringing them in at night. Dogs can be territorial and may defend their territory once they’re approached by a group of ghost or ghouls. Ding-Dong-Ditch! Keep them safe and secure. Halloween is full of random strangers walking up to your door. Pets can become skittish, nervous or aggressive when they’re put through stressful situations. Make sure to keep them close to you or in another room. Keep Calm with TropiClean We recently introduced Life by TropiClean Calming Aid Supplement for Dogs. It’s expertly blended to help reduce anxiety and stress, promotes calming and supports a healthy rest. The supplement is applied orally and won’t make your furry friend drowsy or modify their behavior. Keep Halloween a festive holiday and stress-free for both you and your pet.

What Our Dogs Mean To Us

To kick off National Dog Week (Sept. 24-30) we asked three TropiClean Employees what their dogs mean to them and their family. Here are their responses:   Corey Hackmann, Central Accounts Manager Name: Phoebe Breed: Great Dane We got Phoebe when she was just 6 weeks old and a tiny little baby. Now she’s 2 and around 140lbs. My wife, Natalie, and I love her so much. She’s a part of our family and we try to take her everywhere with us. She brings us so much joy every day with all her goofiness. Phoebe enjoys our family walks, sleeping a lot, putting her face on everything, and sitting like a human on the couch or anything for that matter. We couldn’t imagine what life would be like without her.   James Brandly, Copywriter/Public Relations Specialist Name: Nash Breed: Mix The instant I saw Nash I fell in love. The animal rescue he was at was 3 ½ hours away from me, but that didn’t stop my wife and I. In fact, nor did it stop the animal rescue, as they traveled the distance to meet us! Nash has a special place in our hearts and truly is considered our child. We absolutely love everything about Nash and will continue to provide for him. We totally are the pet parents that make plans that involve Nash and bring him with us everywhere.   Eva Peters, Direct Sales Accounts Manager Names: Neiko & Buddy Breed: Labrador Retrievers I have two dogs and […]

Norrbottenspets The Norrbottenspets is a spitz-type dog from Sweden and Finland, originally bred for hunting in the rugged landscape of Scandinavia. Tough and very agile, they can hunt even large game, like moose, despite their small size. At the same time, they are known to be friendly and affectionate. The breed has a reputation for its intelligence and need for variety in its exercise, so Norrbottenspets are best suited for pet parents who pursue a variety of outdoor activities, such as hunting, camping, hiking, and more. 2. Portuguese Water Dog Portuguese Water Dogs are working dogs originally bred for multiple uses on fishing boats: they herded fish into nets and carried messages from ship to ship. Although they have grown in popularity due to their recent presence in the White House, they remain fairly uncommon. They are particularly well-suited for active sports in the water, whether used as a water retriever or taken on canoe trips, and are one of the preferred breeds for families who suffer from allergies to pet dander. 3. Harrier The Harrier is one of the rarest breeds of dog according to the AKC. While the breed is known to be good-spirited and generally healthy, Harriers are also known to be incredibly active, and thus not well suited for urban apartment dwellers or pet […]

Why Grooming is Crucial for Your Dog’s Health

by MarketPlace @ TropiClean Pet Products for Dogs and Cats

Fri Apr 21 07:18:20 PDT 2017

Although most pet parents appreciate that good grooming helps keep their pups attractive and pleasant to be around, they may not realize that grooming also has an effect on health. If you want to keep your dog healthy, a regular grooming regimen is essential. In particular, grooming helps with coat and skin health, as well as giving you an opportunity to spot other underlying health problems. Healthy Fur Regular brushing distributes your dog’s natural oils throughout the coat to ensure healthy fur. For breeds with a double coat (a downy undercoat beneath longer hair, like Collies or Chows), make sure that you brush against the grain from time to time, especially in spring and fall, to removed shedded undercoat which can easily get matted. Other dogs with silky or wiry coats have their own needs for special brushing techniques or even trimming, so make sure your research the proper grooming technique for your pup if you’re doing it yourself. Skin Health Brushing also helps with skin health. If your pup’s coat becomes matted or tangled, it can create a constant, unpleasant pull on the skin, creating discomfort or even more serious skin irritation. Keeping the coat free of such issues helps make sure your pup’s skin is healthy and comfortable. If your pet has dry skin, a product like OxyMed Oatmeal Shampoo by TropiClean can help address the issue and keep your pet healthy. Most importantly, regular grooming ensures that you carefully inspect your pet for health concerns that can […]

Tears – More Than Meets The Eye

by James Brandly @ TropiClean Pet Products for Dogs and Cats

Wed May 03 12:08:39 PDT 2017

Tears-More Than Meets The Eye Tears have a purpose; to lubricate and moisten the eye. Many pets have facial staining from excessive tear production. We often see it in small breeds, brachiocephalic and large round eyes. This can happen if eyelashes rub against the eye, irritating it. But there are other underlying reasons too. Tears will be reduced in a sympathetic (fight or flight) state, where circulation and attention are being routed to the muscles of extremities and heart for “escape.” This condition can happen over time with chronic stress and worry, creating digestive problems. Tears will be increased in a parasympathetic state. This turns on (if the body is not under the sympathetic influence) during digestion and rest. It focuses which circulation to the central core and slows the body down. A body that is parasympathetic dominant, meaning too much of the “slow” compared to the “go”, may have an overproduction of tears. Lack of tissue calcium and imbalance of gut microflora can increase drainage of the eyes. Calcium is needed for many areas of the body. It is carried in the blood for a minute to minute life. But it is also needed in muscle and nerve tissue function and the immune system. Studies show reduced calcium and magnesium availability increases the ability of cancer cells to grow. A body low in calcium, of the lactate form, can raise tear production and facial staining due to the alkalinity of the tears. Up to 85% of a body’s immune […]

Why we don’t use probiotics in any of our supplements

by Barb Murphy @ inClover

Wed Nov 11 07:54:55 PST 2015

Probiotics are all the rage. Whether you’re in a pet store or a grocery store, it seems like everything from fruit juice to cat litter is touting their probiotic content. If probiotics are so “hot,” why doesn’t In Clover include them in our products? Although many pet parents say they notice improvement in their animals’ […]

5 Great Pet-Friendly State and National Parks

by MarketPlace @ TropiClean Pet Products for Dogs and Cats

Fri Mar 17 01:25:06 PDT 2017

If you’re a pet parent who loves to camp, you may have thought of bringing your pup along. Although many campsites and parks allow pets, it can be challenging to find parks that offer good amenities for human and dog alike. So, we’ve put together a list of a few lesser-known parks that are both pet- and pet-parent-friendly to consider for your next getaway. Acadia National Park, Maine Acadia National Park on the coast of Maine is the oldest national park east of the Mississippi River, but because of its somewhat remote location and small size it is not among the best-known parks. Acadia National Park is open to leashed pets and has more than 100 miles of hiking trails open to dogs, as well as three pet-friendly campgrounds. There are also swimming opportunities in certain lakes. The park maintains a list of pet-friendly trails and other guidelines on its website. Lake of the Ozarks State Park, Missouri Lake of the Ozarks State Park is a popular weekend spot for Missourians, but it also makes a good camping spot for visitors from out of state. The park centers around the Lake of the Ozarks, a large reservoir in central Missouri, and it participates in the Cabins for Canines program, a Missouri parks policy which allows for dogs in certain cabins throughout the state. The park offers pet-friendly camping at its Outpost Cabins, a set of rustic cabins set in an oak-hickory forest. The park offers twelve trails—one of which runs closely by the Outpost […]

Why are enzymes important?

by Barb Murphy @ inClover

Mon Mar 16 11:30:39 PDT 2015

Enzymes are the building blocks of life. The functions of enzymes are the same in humans as in animals. These little proteins control essential chemical reactions inside our pets’ (and our) bodies, such as building bones, developing red blood cells, healing wounds, driving heart beats, thinking, breathing and digestion. Without enzymes, life couldn’t exist. There are […]

Six Reasons to Hike with Your Dog

by MarketPlace @ TropiClean Pet Products for Dogs and Cats

Fri Jun 02 07:20:13 PDT 2017

Many pet owners love to take their dogs hiking. If you haven’t tried yet, here are six of the best reasons to hit the trail with your pup this weekend! 1. Exercise Walks are great exercise for your pup, of course, but hiking offers a different experience that will stretch different muscles (for you and your pet), especially if you have access to an area with elevation or rugged terrain. If you have a high-energy dog, hikes are a great way to ensure your pup gets necessary exercise and expends appropriate amounts of energy. 2. Affordability Unlike some other active sports, hiking requires no expensive equipment. You just need access to a good hiking area—something freely available in most parts of the country at state parks or recreation areas—some comfortable shoes, and water sources for you and your pet. 3. Companionship Much as with human beings, when you and your dog share circumstances where you are challenged, your relationship deepens. Hiking together helps you bond with your pup through a shared experience of fun and physical exertion, leading to a greater understanding of one another and a closer emotional tie. 4. Confidence If you hope to train your dog to accompany you on more extreme adventures—camping or canoeing, for instance—a simple hike is a great way to begin to get your pup used to rugged outdoor activities. And even if you don’t intend to go any further than hiking, getting your pup used to the great outdoors helps build confidence […]
