Start off the New Year Right With Healthy Treats for Your Four-Legged Friends! (Review)

January 1, 2014 by Juliann

Keep Your Pets Healthy and Happy in the New Year!


If you love your pets as much as I love mine, then you definitely want what is best for them. I have two dogs and a cat. My dog, Banner is a black lab and he is nine years old. Our pup, Vader is a husky/lab mix and he is six months old. My kitty is three years old and does not really have a name, so we call her “Kitty.” Not very original, is it? Anyway, I adore my pets. Nothing makes me happier than to know that they are healthy and happy. That begins with their food. It is scary to know that there are so many chemicals in pet foods and treats nowadays. It is hard to figure out what is good for them sometimes. That is why I have come to trust certain brands in the proper care for my pets.

For my dogs, I love to feed them Spring Naturals Grain Free Beef Dinner. Ever since we have tried it, it has definitely become one of their favorites.

Grain Free Beef Dinner (with chickpeas, carrots & berries)

This completely balanced, grain free recipe contains a savory blend of real beef, whole vegetables and whole fruits. It’s designed to provide no-compromise nutrition for dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds.

  • Real beef is the first ingredient, plus a unique combination of protein sources like whole chickpeas, green peas and eggs
  • No beef, chicken, turkey, lamb or fish meals of any kind
  • No wheat, gluten, corn, soy, by-products, artificial preservatives, flavors or colors

A very healthy and happy Banner!

Just like us humans, dogs need their daily vitamins to keep up  their ever abounding energy levels. My dogs absolutely love Canine Complete Soft Chews.

Wholistic Canine Complete™ soft chews are a super-premium soft chew that provides your pet with a complete array of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, essential fatty acids, powerful antioxidants, and digestive microflora! High bioavailability is ensured by the use of pure, organic, whole-food sources. Not only does Wholistic Canine Complete™ soft chews offer all required nutrients in a whole-food form that is easily and readily digestable, but it offers the highest quality of premium ingredients! No other supplement comes close in offering the quality and quantity of nutrients that are a staple of the Wholistic Pet Organics® full line of supplements and food.

Braxton and Vader (when Vader was tiny. He’s grown a lot since then.)

A treat for a humans is often an ice cream cone, or a lollipop, right? Have you ever heard of a lickeable treat for your canine companion? They love to lick things, don’t they? My dogs absolutely love their Lickety Stik Gel by PetSafe. We use it as a reward for them when they learn new tricks.

New Lickety Stik Gel gives dogs a delicious gel treat with added health and oral benefits. Choose from five gels to support health and well-being or three breath freshening gels. The gel comes in an easy-to-use bottle– just twist the dial to dispense the gel and give your dog just the amount he needs. It’s the perfect low-calorie treat, with only 1 calorie in every 10 licks.

When it comes to choosing treats for your pets, you can never be too careful. I have read many scary articles about pets getting sick and even dying because of unsafe pet treats. Sometimes you just do not know what is actually in some pet treats. I trust Whole Life pet treats for my dogs. Whole Life Pet Treats are the highest quality, best tasting, safest pet treats on earth. My dogs love them!

 Pioneering the Farm to Friend concept, Whole Life’s iconic striped bags are made from pure meat, fish or cheese and contain only one ingredient with nothing artificial.

As for my Kitty, she is just so adorable and sweet! She certainly deserves the best foods and treats available. I wouldn’t want anything but the best for my furry feline.

Look at my Kitty hiding in the pool table!!

One of the treats my cat loves are the Healthy Medleys for cats. My cat is usually a very picky kitty, but she really enjoys these treats!

Bravo! Healthy Medley Turkey for Cats is an assortment of freeze-dried turkey breast, heart, gizzard & liver, a gourmet selection for your feline friend. Bite-sized pieces are dried to preserve natural flavors and textures. High protein treats are the perfect snack or meal enhancer for cats and small dogs. All natural with no preservatives or artificial flavorings. Made in the USA.

Another treat my Kitty adores is her Feline Lickety Stik by PetSafe. It is so cute to see her nuzzle up to me as she indicates that she wants her Lickety Stik!

Show your cat just how special she is. The new Feline Lickety Stik lickable cat treat gives cats a special treat without the unwanted mess or extra calories. It’s easy and fun for your cat to lick the treat-dispensing rollerball– you hold, she licks!

Purchase at: www.PetSafe.net

To keep my cat healthy, I give her her daily vitamins. She loves Feline Complete Soft Chews! She eagerly gobbles them down, so I am assuming they are delicious.

A super-premium supplement that provides your pet with a complete array of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, essential fatty acids, powerful antioxidants, and digestive microflora! High bioavailability is ensured by the use of pure, organic, whole-food sources. If you are tired of using several different supplements in the never-ending quest for optimum nutrition for your pet, then look no further. Not only does Wholistic Feline Complete™ offer all required nutrients in a whole-food form that is easily and readily digestable, but it offers the highest quality of premium ingredients! No other supplement comes close in offering the quality and quantity of nutrients that are a staple of the Wholistic Pet Organics® full line of supplements and food.

Another favorite treat I have discovered for my cat that she really loves is Whole Life treats for cats, especilally the white meat chicken breast!

Pure organic breast meat chicken, gently steamed, sliced then freeze dried to perfection removing moisture while concentrating flavor, aroma and nutrition.

Whole Life freeze dried organic chicken breast treats are low in fat, calories and carbs making them an ideal healthy snack for both dogs and cats. Their single ingredient formula provides pure protein without fillers, chemicals, additives or preservatives.

We use USDA certified organic hormone free, antibiotic free white meat chicken breast sourced from Coleman Chicken in Golden. CO. Our freeze dried chicken is unique in color, texture and especially flavor. The attention to detail during every step of our process produces a crisp treat that can be broken into bite size pieces making them easy to use for any size or age dog and cat. You can also crumble them over your pet’s food adding nutrition and excitement to every meal. Freeze dried treats can be quickly rehydrated in warm water to produce a soft meaty texture ideal for older pets or those that have difficulty with hard treats.

About This Blog

Juliann, founder of Beautiful Moms

Welcome to Beautiful Moms!

Hi! I'm Juliann, wife of 33 years to Jon, a mom to four amazing children, and a proud grandma to five precious little ones. I live in Oregon.

When I started Beautiful Moms in 2008, my goal was to connect with other moms who were also raising young children. It became a creative outlet for me to share my thoughts on motherhood, review products I loved, and work with brands that help make family life a little easier.

More importantly, I wanted moms to feel seen. It's so easy to lose ourselves in the demands of caring for everyone else and forget that our own well-being matters, too. Every mom deserves to feel beautiful, valued, and appreciated, no matter what stage of motherhood she's in.

Over the years, Beautiful Moms has evolved right along with me. My children are now all grown up, and I'm blessed to be a grandma.

Life changes so quickly

One thing that hasn't changed is my passion for encouraging other moms—it's simply expanded to include every season of motherhood—from pregnancy and baby's first years to raising teens, becoming an empty nester, navigating healthy aging, and everything in between.


Myelie, contributor at Beautiful Moms

I'm excited to have my daughter, Myelie, join the Beautiful Moms team as a new contributor. As the mom of a newborn and a busy toddler, she brings a fresh perspective on modern motherhood.

She lives in Alabama with her military husband, so she also understands the unique challenges of military life, frequent moves, and building a happy home wherever life takes you.

We are PR-friendly and love working with great companies!
