    How We Battle Fleas and Ticks Naturally Without Harmful Pesticides

    May 26, 2021 /

    I’ve never been comfortable using pesticides on my dogs. Delia has never tolerated them. As a result of using them, her skin is almost immediately red and inflamed, causing her pain and itching. A few years ago, after moving to a heavily wooded area, our vet recommended topical chemicals. Reluctantly, I followed their advice for Chewy. He had a seizure and other neurological/muscular side effects. Never again. Since then, we battle fleas and ticks naturally without harmful pesticides. We have used only pawTree flea and tick spray and diatomaceous earth dusted on our yard, and lots of checking for nasty bugs. It takes more work, but I’d rather keep them…

    Allprovide All-Natural Fresh Raw Dog Food Review

    August 24, 2015 /

    Allprovide is a new all-natural raw pet food company with a focus on making pets healthier and happier by providing wholesome, real human-grade food for dogs and cats. I’ve been interested in transitioning Delia and Chewy to a raw diet for a while, but the process seemed daunting. Cost, equipment, quality ingredients, safety…these were all concerns. When I was approached to review Allprovide in exchange for food for Delia and Chewy to try, after doing some research on the company and consulting our veterinarian, I thought it would be a great opportunity to delve into raw feeding. Allprovide is all-natural and made with USDA select meats and USDA Grade A…

    My Failure at Delia’s Dental Care Routine and How I Plan to Fix It

    February 13, 2015 /

    Delia has horrible breath. It is my fault. We used to brush her teeth at least three times a week, but she put up such a fight, I felt terrible, so I stopped, which was worse for her in the long run. I’ve bought countless dental treats, water additives, and numerous flavors of toothpaste. I’m convinced she’s got to be one of the pickiest dogs on the planet. She won’t eat any of the chews, stops drinking the water with the additives and runs at the sight of a toothbrush. It doesn’t matter if it is a brush, a finger brush, or what. She wants no part of it. The…

Posted @withregram • @bailing_out_benji Today is Posted @withregram • @bailing_out_benji Today is Puppy Mill Awareness Day! 

Can you help us spread the word about this cruel industry by telling at least one person about puppy mills? 

Here are a few quick facts: 

- 75% of the puppy mills in the United States can be found in 8 Midwest states (Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, Oklahoma and Wisconsin). 

- There are approximately 600 active puppy-selling stores in the United States and our research shows that the majority of the puppies are coming from puppy mills and large scale commercial dog breeders, many of whom have violations. Bailing Out Benji has publicly connected many of these stores to the facilities they buy from. 

https://bailingoutbenji.com/puppy-mill-maps/cvi-data/

- Over 475 localities and 7 states have enacted ordinances that prevent or regulate puppy mills from selling puppies through pet stores. 

Resources to tune in to: 
* Dog by Dog: Documentary about the dark money behind puppy mills. Can be found on numerous streaming sites! 

* Puppy Kingpin: A Sony Productions Podcast that dives deep into the world of puppy mills becoming nonprofit “rescues”. 

* The Doggie in the Window: A phenomenal true story that follows a journalist as she uncovers the cruel puppy mill world that her new puppy was born from. 

If you or someone else wants to get involved with our nonprofit and help us with our mission to end puppy mill cruelty, please contact us about becoming a volunteer or supporter!

What a beautiful day for the @apaofmo Canine Carni What a beautiful day for the @apaofmo Canine Carnival 🐾

We were able to share @bailing_out_benji work and educate about puppy mills!
💜One of the highlights of the day for me was meeting sweet little Rosie.🌹 She spent the first 9 mos of her life as an Envigo beagle, being used for inhumane testing. Before her parents adopted her, she was known as CMKCEU, her tag number, which is also tattooed on her ear. She has adjusted to the life she deserves with her family, surrounded by love. She's a happy, sweet girl!

These healthy chews are made from yak milk, high in protein, easily digestible, and truly long-lasting. He's been working on this chew for a week!
