dog food

Ever since my husband and I got our puppy about five months ago, we've been buying our dog food online. The breeder gave us a small bag of the dog food that she had been giving the puppy and when we priced it in the local pet stores it was outrageous. Because our puppy is prone to weight gain if he doesn't get the proper nutrition, we need to make sure that we always give him premium dog food as opposed to the inexpensive supermarket brands which are loaded with fillers.

I decided before we ever bought the first bag of dog food, that I'd look online and see if we could possibly find it for a better price online. Imagine my surprise when I found it for almost half the price of what the local pet store was selling it for! It just proved that the mark up on things like dog food and other supplies are high and my husband and I vowed to make sure we kept enough dog food in the house so that we would never have to pay those outrageous prices.

My husband and I are planning to go out of town in the near future and one of the things we thought may be handy would be to have a container to put the dog food in that would allow him to eat when he wants. My mother in law will be keeping him, and we thought it would be easier for her to not have to think about feeding the dog at certain times, because she tends to be a little forgetful. I decided to browse online and see what I could find, and I came across Petmate Feeder 2.5# Granite that I found for a great price at Top Line Pet Supply whose online store can be found for a great price at www.toplinepetsupply.com. It will hold more than two pounds of dog food, which will be enough that she shouldn't even have to think about refilling it while we are gone. I decided to order it, and while I was at it, also decided to order a new bag of dog food, just so that we wouldn't run out, plus it would save on shipping by ordering everything at once.

I hope that the dog will behave while we are away. This is his first time to spend away from us, and he hates being without us, so it could get interesting for my mother in law. I just hope he’ll eat the dog food we leave for him.
