CONTEST TIME!!!

CONTEST TIME! We have a contest in store... When you spend $10 or more on cat products or $100 or more on dog products, you can enter your name into a draw to win a BOWSER BALL BED (valued at $110.99) or The Ultimate Scratching Post and Perch (Valued at $140.00).

The Ultimate Scratching Post and Perch encourages the mental & physical stimulation of cats! Cats need a scratching post that will allow them to get a full stretch. This post is 32” high and is designed to maximize your cat’s scratching pleasure by providing an appealing target for territorial marking, exercise and natural cat exuberance.

The Bowser Ball Bed is a luxurious bed made from durable, soft berber fabric and filled with high loft memory fiber. Dogs LOVE burrowing into this fancy nest. It is machine washable and dryable and there is a zippered cover for easy washing.

We will be drawing the prize winner names on Father's Day- Sunday, June 16th. Best of Luck!

Abbie's Favourite Products

We're featuring Abbie's favourite products, as part of our series of blog posts on our Wag staff's favourite items.  Though Abbie has had a difficult time narrowing down her favourite products, she has shortened the list to her top three favourite items that WAG carries.  Read on to hear what Abbie has to say about her favourite items:
Wagmores dog treats:  I love supporting local businesses.  Wagmores are a super healthy homemade dog treat that are made using local, human grade ingredients.  There are no preservatives, artificial additives, fillers, colouring, or by-products and they are 100% homemade!  My dog Frankie LOVES 
them!  Best of all, they are chewy and soft, so I can break them up and offer him little bits.

Bowser Donut Bed:  We love his Bowser donut bed!  It's made with a soft, micro velvet material that wipes clean and washes well.  There is a mattress inside that we use for travelling too.  It's a tufted cushion, and so it washes well in the washing machine without the cushioning clumping.  He loves to curl up in his bed and rest his head over the edge.  He has a coordinating throw blanket too he likes to snuggle under.  


Champion Dog Food (Orijen & Acana):  Champion Dog Foods is a Canadian company.  All of their meats are fresh, never frozen and their meat is all Canadian. The first ingredients of Orijen are named meat products.  The food uses salmon oil rather than fat, providing omega 3 and 6.  There are no grains in this food and there is a range of fruits and vegetables in the food, and a good range of probiotics.  There are no grains in this food, which are not a natural part of a dog's diet.  It is really outstanding product!  Frank's favourite flavours are Orijen 6 fish and chicken-- we can interchange flavours without upsetting his digestive system.  Plus, when you buy 12 bags, you get your 13th free!

Heather's Favourite Products

We're featuring a number of reviews of our staff's favourite products.  Heather has selected her favourite items for the second segment of this feature.  Read on to hear why Heather has selected the following products as her favourite:


Tree trunk with squirrels dog toy: This is a great toy that will keep your dog busy!  This was Heather's previous dog, spring spaniel Buster's (Missing you) favourite toy.  Heather has recently added Hadley, another springer spaniel, to her family and this is her favourite toy also.    Aww...

Heather also loves the Smoochy Poochy collars.  They are a great leather alternative, especially for dogs who like to swim, because they don't smell like wet leather does.  Even more, they wipe clean, so they are easy to keep clean!


Hadley loves her American Kennel Club toy so much she won't go anywhere in the house without it. This racoon is her best friend! She throws it, chews it, shakes it and squeaks it. Hadley is just starting to  teeth and this toy is nice and durable for a stuffy.
