This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine. Dogs have become men’s (and women’s!) best friend for many reasons. They’re cuddly, friendly and loyal. Since the beginning of time, Fido has provided us with the type of relationship we’ve always yearned for. Are you already a proud owner of a pooch? Looking to adopt one of your very own? Today, I’ve put together four quick tips on how to keep your dog healthy and happy.
Four Ways to Keep Your Dog Healthy
- Dog Run: Dogs have lots of energy. It’s important that you offer your canine friend the amount of exercise that’s needed for his body type and weight. Also, be aware of your dog’s breed. Depending on their body structure, some breeds need to be more careful with how much they play and run.
- H20 For Your Pooch: Just like us, dogs need to stay hydrated. Make sure you’re keeping up with your pup’s much-needed water intake by filling his bowl with clean, fresh H20.
- Groomed And Clean: Regular grooming can help prevent fur knots, ticks, fleas and dry patches. Grooming is especially important for dogs with longer hair, so make sure you’re giving your furry friend the doggy spa-day he/she deserves!
- Treats, Treats And More Treats: Many owners like using treats to reward or provide happiness for their pooch. Remember that when giving a treat, allow your dog to sniff, stare and then eat! He/she will be appreciative and aware of what you have given him/her.
Choosing A Treat For Your Dog
There are many of treats out there in the market. Just like choosing dog food, it’s important that you’re picking up the best treats for your dog. Aside from taste, price and quantity, you must also consider ingredients, preparation methods, etc. A happy owners means a happy dog, so make sure you pick up high-quality products to maintain his/her health. Milk Bone has been a household name since 1908. Many dog owners swear by their wide range in pet products, especially their doggy biscuits.Make high-quality, premium and affordable dog biscuits a part of your family’s lifestyle!
Milk Bone Farmer’s Medley Biscuits
As a pet owner, I’m a firm believer that every family member deserves a treat – including our fur babies. Whenever I’m shopping around for treats, the first thing I look at is the ingredients list. Milk Bone Farmer’s Medley Biscuits are made with real USA-sourced meat. They do not have any fillers, meaning you won’t find a trace of corn, artificial flavors or preservatives in them. This is a huge plus for any dog-owner: you know that you’ll be providing the best quality for your loved one.
Yay! Grain Free Biscuits!
What’s even better is that Milk Bone provides the option of either whole grain or grain-free in their Milk Bone Farmer’s Medley Biscuits products. There are four types of biscuits to choose from. The whole grain recipes include a chicken biscuit flavor as well as a beef biscuit one. In terms of their grain-free varieties, Milk Bone offers alamb and Spring vegetables mix and a turkey and pumpkin variety. You can check out your local pet store for prices and availability!
If you care about your dog’s well-being and happiness, then Milk Bone’s new line of Farmer’s Biscuits are definitely the way to go. Keep your family’s lifestyle happy, healthy and flavorful. You wouldn’t want any less for your pup, now would you? Longing for some cute, fur-friendly updates? Be sure to follow Milk Bone on social media through Facebook, Twitter> and Instagram.

March 8, 2017 at 1:05 pmI love this post. My dogs get treats when they do a good job on their training or going potty. I try not to give them too many, though. I don’t want them to get fat!

March 8, 2017 at 1:16 pmThis is a great post. So many people just buy whatever cheapo dog treats are out there. Dog treats should be just as high a quality as dog food.

Annemarie LeBlanc says
March 9, 2017 at 1:47 amThese treats look like they are high quality. I only wish my dog would learn to love treats! All he wants are his meals. He turns his head away when we offer him dog biscuits. Maybe we’re not just getting the ones that appeal to him. We’ll try Milk Bone Farmer’s Medley Biscuits this time.

Lisa Heath says
March 9, 2017 at 3:58 pmCan I just come over and cuddle with your pups? They are so cute! And I agree with all your tips. It was so nice when my son was old enough to play more with the dogs and run around with them. We always took them on walks, but it’s so different when they have a child with unlimited energy to run with
Kate | Life of a Ginger says
March 9, 2017 at 4:10 pmMy dogs are as much as a part of my family as my kids! I was so excited to see the Whole Grain Milk Bone treats at my local store. I hate treats that have fillers and other things that aren’t healthy.
Karrie Truman says

Debbie Welchert says
March 16, 2017 at 4:29 pmWe love giving our dogs treats too. I have never heard of the grain free ones before and they sound like something our dogs would enjoy.
shannon fowler says
March 17, 2017 at 9:43 pmMy dog is a pomeranian-chihuahua, and his favorite thing to do is sleep and eat, so i make sure I take him on walks. He will only walk if there are small animals around or its a new place, so we go on lots of car trips to parks. We also make him swim because he has a knee issue the rescue said my eventually get worse, and swimming helps. I also monitor how much people food my fiance gives him. This little guy would never stop eating if he could.
laura schag says
March 18, 2017 at 9:28 pmAll these are such good ideas. My mom’s dog has some health issues, the info is perfect for her.
Barrie says
July 9, 2017 at 11:06 pmMy dog needs grain free doggie treats. I had no idea Milk Bone makes grain free treats, so I’ll have to look for them!
Jeanine Carlson says
July 13, 2017 at 3:19 amIt’s interesting- I never even considered grains in milk bones before. How many things do we take for granted without thinking twice about it?
Peggy Nunn says
June 17, 2018 at 8:11 amI want a dog but it just doesn’t seem to be working out. I want what is best for the dog too and right now is not a good time. But I will keep it healthy when we get one.
