PetSmile alternatives & is Dawn dish soap safe for dog paws?
Nikki is adorable! Thanks for including pictures! Yes, PetSmile is expensive, but it is one of the only toothpastes to actually be approved by the Veterinary Oral Health Council. Here is a list of their approved products. http://www.vohc.org/VOHCAcceptedProductsTable_Dogs.pdf PetSmile is what I use with my dogs. (Last year they ran a 25% off sale before Christmas, so I stocked up!) Yes, it is fine to use Dawn on Nikki's feet daily, but I suspect any gentle cleaner would be fine as well. You may have to experiment to find the best shampoo for her. I have been very pleased with EarthBath products, so you might want to try their Oatmeal and Aloe shampoo for itch relief. https://earthbath.com/product/oatmeal-aloe-shampoo/ There are also prescription itch relief shampoo and conditioner products if needed that you can talk to your vet about. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and answered your questions. Thanks for using PetCoach.

Which puppy activity tracker has no monthly subscription fee?
My personal (and totally independent of PetCoach or Petco) recommendation would be the FitBark2. It is small, durable and links to my FitBit. It is at the top of the list here too: https://www.caninejournal.com/dog-activity-monitor/

Vet Q & A
How do I choose the best dog DNA test to find my dog's breed mix?
The commercially available DNA tests I am familiar with are Wisdom Panel by Mars, DNA My Dog based out of Toronto, Paw Print Genetics out of Spokane and Embark out of Austin, Tx. Wisdom Panel® Canine DNA Tests determine the breed ancestry of a dog by determining the genotype of the dog, at hundreds of individual sites in its DNA. The results are then compared with the genotypes of the more than 12,000 breed samples in their database. Similarly, DNA My Dog tests for 85 of the most common breeds that make up approximately 97% of the common North American mixed breed population. Paw Print Genetics is designed to assist breeders and has the advantage of testing for several genetic diseases. The breed-specific panels offer a comprehensive service at a discounted rate, and you can choose genetic diseases you would like to test for. Embark tests for over 150 breeds including wolf, coyote, and village dog ancestry (feral dogs) - accounting for 98% of dogs in America. Additionally, Embark screens for over 160 canine genetic diseases including MDR1, degenerative myelopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy, PRA blindness, exercise-induced collapse. It is certified by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA), partnered with Cornell College of Veterinary Medicine. All tests require taking two samples of cells from the dog’s inner cheek on swabs, which are then air-dried, sealed, and mailed off to the lab. The turn around time varies from 2-8 weeks. As far as the cost, DNA My Dog is the most economical at about $60, followed by Wisdom and Paw Print at about $80 and Embark at $200.

Vet Q & A
What are the best affordable dog boots for paw protection and comfort?
Ruffwear is generally considered one of the best apparel companies for pets. Otherwise it is all highly variable. I recommend to look at product recommendations online. Any boot is liable to cause annoyance to a pet since they are not use to wearing them. Petsmart and Petco both tend to carry products that work well and are durable. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Best affordable pet health insurance for families with multiple pets?
There are some great pet insurance options. Petplan https://www.gopetplan.com/?gclid=Cj0KCQiAnuDTBRDUARIsAL41eDosrrZFsRgpVAVLL6k_F2IrrDt9H8AFJ7x-QuxyiWiWqlGrefVsW1IaAkuVEALw_wcB Trupanion https://trupanion.com/ppc/best-care3?gclid=Cj0KCQiAnuDTBRDUARIsAL41eDphbfV14ZZQmmmX9klKZOtmCEUoABKrWSUkBaeNgsZTtmwX54QKaxUaAmitEALw_wcB ASPCA https://www.aspcapetinsurance.com/ Nationwide https://www.petinsurance.com/ppc-b-video.aspx?src=GoogleSearch&OM=CI0416&gclid=Cj0KCQiAnuDTBRDUARIsAL41eDodbdZFd2P6cBEoJISv8mOih682_m_1cgZ4c-drNOUNHCvsCKZXBEgaAvQOEALw_wcB Your best bet to get the most affordable plan is to just get insurance to cover just emergency expenses not wellness prevention. Then I would just pay for vaccinations and yearly visits out of pocket. Thank you for using PetCoach.
