As most of our customers know if they shop for their pet’s food at Beastie Boutique, we are advocates for a fresher food diet for your pet as we believe this is the best way to receive optimal nutrition. When I say fresher food, that doesn’t mean your pet can only get that from a balanced raw-meat diet, but also a lightly cooked balanced diet or a canned food diet. Of course, if you only have one pet and that one pet is 10 to 15 pounds, it’s easy to choose a......

Recently Evangers Dog Food Company had a voluntary recall on one of their products: Hunk of Beef. Somehow the food was contaminated. See info below. I was advised today of another recall of a line we do not carry. Due to this recent recall, we are pulling all Evangers products from our shelves even though there was no recall on those products. We may bring them back once all this is sorted out and they can determine how their products were getting contaminated. If you still choose to purchase Evangers please let......

Our payment processor for the online store prohibits any of its customers from using the proper abbreviation for this oil (CeeBeeDee oil).

Recently, we noticed Beau was having back pain so I took him to the vet and we discussed his options.  I told the vet that I didn’t want to just put him on pain killers (due to their side-effects) but wanted to look at......

Bone broth is essentially the nutrient-dense stock liquid made from simmering raw or cooked bones at low heat over long periods of time. This oily broth is packed full of amino acids, vitamins and minerals and is considered a nutrition powerhouse for dogs!  Bone broth is especially ideal for sick dogs and senior dogs, as it is extremely easy to digest and is soothing for the gut.

A lot of times when we get a dog or cat, we don’t think about their teeth until it’s too late.  Keeping your pets teeth clean is as important to your pet’s overall heath as nutrition, proper exercise and for some pets, routine grooming. Keep an eye on your pet’s teeth.  Look at them regularly to avoid dental disease.  To check your pet’s teeth, lift the lips all around the mouth, look at the front and back teeth as closely as possible. Be careful…as your pet may want to nip at you.......
