1. Dog Dental Health
This year, I focused on KORU BEAR’s dental health. Both bluestem and TropiClean pet oral pet products played vital roles in KB’s dental health progress. Brushing using dog-safe bluestem toothpaste is a must. When brushing is not an option, TropiClean Clean Teeth Gel works well and naturally reduces plaque and tartar.
2 Reduce Dog Shedding
It is important to use a quality deShedding tool like FURminator especially if you have a Golden Retriever. Having a grooming routine of brushing, deShedding, and bathing helps to keep our home clean. Our favorite is FURminator’s new Bathing Brush. You can watch KB’s Grooming Secrets video on Instagram IGTV and KB’s FURminator Spa Day video on Instagram Reels.

4. Dog Supplements
Supplements can be beneficial for the overall health and wellbeing of your dog. This year, I supplemented Koru Bear’s meal with The One of Front Of The Pack all-in-one daily dog supplement. Using The One for a couple of months helped improve KORU BEAR’s digestion, coat, and overall mobility. Read more about The One in our post: 8 Reasons You Should Give Your Dog Supplements.
I also provided Koru Bear a multi-health supplements by SmartyPaws which were formulated by vets based on dog’s size and life stage.

6. Wonder Suit
Surgi Snuggly is truly a wonder suit. Koru Bear originally used it after his neuter surgery. It is a multi-purpose suit, an e collar alternative (cone of shame) garment. When KB has an allergy or hot spots, Surgi Snuggly is very convenient and helps him relax.
