September 2025 Archive: Vet‑Backed Food Review, Air‑Travel Hacks, Grooming Guidance, and Sleep Myths

Welcome to the September roundup from Nelson's Equestrian and Pet Supplies. We gathered four fresh posts that tackle everyday questions every dog owner faces. Whether you’re checking the label on a new bag of kibble, planning a flight, scheduling grooming appointments, or wondering why your pup prefers your bed, we’ve got straight‑to‑the‑point answers.

Food, Travel & Grooming Insights

What Vets Really Say About Beneful Dog Food cuts through the marketing hype. A veterinarian breaks down the ingredient list, flags any fillers that might irritate sensitive stomachs, and confirms that Beneful meets AAFCO standards for all life stages. The article also includes a quick feeding checklist so you can match portion sizes to your dog’s weight and activity level.

Is Flying Traumatic for Dogs? 2025 Guide answers the worry many owners have before boarding. It explains the main stress triggers—cabin noise, temperature swings, and confinement—while comparing cabin travel to cargo. You’ll get a step‑by‑step prep plan: a short‑term fasting schedule, a calming pre‑flight walk, and tips on choosing a breathable crate. The guide even suggests a few low‑dose calming supplements that won’t interfere with your vet’s advice.

How Many Dogs Can You Groom in a Day? gives a realistic look at solo grooming capacity. The author ran the numbers on typical breed grooming times and found that most professionals comfortably handle four to eight full grooms per day. A printable timetable helps you slot in baths, haircuts, and nail trims without overbooking yourself. If you’re thinking about expanding your business, the post also highlights when to bring in an assistant.

Sleep Behaviors Decoded

Do Dogs Sleep With the Alpha Human? tackles the old dominance myth. Scientific studies show dogs pick sleeping spots based on comfort, safety, and bond strength—not a need to claim “alpha” status. The article walks you through how to set fair sleep rules if you want your pup on the couch or the bed, and offers gentle training tricks for dogs that insist on snuggling with the wrong person.

All four pieces share a common goal: give you practical steps you can apply today. No jargon, no fluff—just clear advice you can trust.
