8 Doggy Life Hacks to Make your Life Easier

We all love our dogs, even more than ourselves sometimes. However dogs are stubborn, things can be expensive and sometimes it's just nice to take the shortcut. So here are 8 great life hacks for your canine companion:

1: A Squeegee for all the dog hair on your carpet

Use a window squeegee to get the pet hair from your carpet, just use it like a brush and all the hair should stick to it like a magnet.

2: Smelly Dog Breath?

If your dog's food makes your dog's breath smell horrible then instead of using dental treats to freshen their breath, sprinkle chopped parsley on top on their food to counteract the smell as you go!

3: Dog won't take their medicine?

We know that a lot of dogs will eat anything. They will scavenge and eat that mouldy chip that's been under your fridge for a month, but when it comes to pills: Oh no can't eat that, that's yucky! So make your dog some homemade peanut butter pill pockets if your dog refuses to take their medicine:

• 2 tablespoons fine flour
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 1 tablespoon smooth peanut butter

4: In case your precious pooch goes missing...

All you need is a mattress from a crib, a fitted sheet, a wooden pallet and some creativity! decorate it how ever you like with what ever you have to hand and let your dog enjoy their  comfy new bed!

6: D.I.Y Dog Toy

Sometimes the best dog toys are the ones that provide the most enjoyment for the smallest expense.Use and old sock and a empty plastic water bottle to create the perfect crunchy play toy for your doggo.

7: Zip wire cord for your flighty dog

For those pets who refuse to stay still in the back of the car and keep trying to jump into the front seat then use the handles above your car doors and a zip wire cord to prevent your dog from jumping into the front.

8: Slow Down those fast eaters!

Put a tennis ball in their food ball so they have to work to get their snout in the food!
