And since a dog and a cat's body is made up of about 80% water hydration is pretty important. So, here’s what to look out for. Lethargy, so if your pet has less energy than usual. A loss […]

Turns out, and I guess now that I think about it, wearing your skinny jeans too often, is pretty bad for your health. Jeans tend to be a much stronger material than other tight-fitting clothes, so they don’t really GIVE as much as, let’s say… ski-pants, haha… there’s an old word for you, straight out of the 80’s!!
