![the white gate with dog in front]()
If you have another dog in the house, you may need to separate your foster until they and the rest of the pack are ready for their big meet-and-greet. Or, you may need to leave the house, and if your foster isn’t loving the crate, a baby gate is a great way to restrict them to one room with an easy-clean floor and minimal destructive possibilities. A simple baby gate can provide boundaries for your foster and keep your couch pillows safe from anxiety-induced destruction.

Similarly, toe grips can help provide traction for dogs developing mobility issues on slippery floors — granted they’re okay with their toes being handled. That being said, Dr. Iovino does warn for some caution against persistent chewers. “If a dog is prone to eating or swallowing foreign material, then I can see one of the toe grips potentially being swallowed if they decide to try and chew off the product,” he says.

Joint pain and aging go together like olive oil and ice cream. And similar to that strange food combo, the pair seems much more daunting before you dig in. In actuality, there are many small adjustments that’ll help your pup handle their aging joints. To avoid them bending over too much, try an elevated bowl. The doc adds, “I think elevated food bowls are a good idea for any dog, especially if they’re larger, or they have, for example, a chronic neck issue that may make it more difficult to put their head downwards.”

Who doesn’t love a good colorblock? Featuring both front and back leash attachments, this harness is scoring major points for diversity. Available in a variety of sizes, it’s understood that the one-size-fits-all rule doesn’t apply when it comes to harnesses. As Grossman’s go-to harness for training, she shares what she finds most valuable about the Freedom harness.
“I really like that it has the option of both a front and a back clip,” she says. “The front clip can help reduce pulling as when the dog does pull, it exerts pressure on the chest, which will result in the dog pushing against the pressure, moving backwards rather than forwards. The fact that it attaches in the front also means that the dog is likely to turn towards you when pulling, giving you a chance to reward a quick check-in.”
The harnesses’s sizing extends up to XXL, but it’s also available in a five-eighths-inch width for smaller pups.

![paw soother balm for dogs]()
Natural Dog Company’s Paw Soother balm promises to smooth rough and dry paw pads. Dr. Warnes has one stipulation to that claim: “It’s OK for dog’s pads to be rough or coarse. Most dogs do not need balms or creams for their paw pads.”
However, for the minority of pups who live in environments where moisture and barrier protection are crucial, this organic, plant-based healing balm is an excellent option. Plus, its twist-stick applicator makes it easy to dab on your pup’s paw pads. This company has even shared their best pet-parent tips, including placing baby socks over your pup’s feet at night to encourage the balm to absorb into their pads.
In terms of application, Dr. Iovino suggests “dabbing it on lightly in a reasonable way — that way they aren’t eating it. I wouldn’t lather paw pads with all this waxy stuff.” Even if your pup is prone to licking, all Natural Dog Company products are 100 percent natural, safe, and edible. It’s important to note that the Paw Soother works to treat paws, while the company’s PawTection helps prevent damage.

Circling back to actual Barbie brand merch — this toy from the Canada Pooch collab will definitely be your dog’s favorite way of celebrating the movie. Out of the two toys in this line, we recommend this one for strong chewers as the added rope feature makes for a more durable toy. Remember to always supervise your pup when they’re playing with rope toys; the string is a very real choking hazard, which would ruin any Barbie’s day.
