A few of our favorite finds for everyday adventures

Two SLSON collapsible travel bowls in green and blue with carabiners attached to their rims.

FOR HOME & TRAVEL

SLSON Collapsible Travel Bowls
These lightweight bowls collapse flat when not in use and come with carabiners, making them easy to clip onto a leash, backpack or travel bag. A simple way to keep food or water handy for walks, road trips and other adventures.

Why it’s a Flap Find:
Portable, practical and easy to tuck away when you don’t need it. We also like that the set comes in several color combinations.

Green Wobble Wag Giggle Ball decorated with a black swirl and blue paw print.

TOYS & ENRICHMENT

Wobble Wag Giggle Ball
This interactive ball makes playful giggling sounds as it rolls and wobbles—no batteries required. Its unusual movement and sounds are designed to spark a dog’s curiosity and encourage active play.

Why it’s a Flap Find:
It’s a fun twist on an ordinary ball, adding sound and unpredictable movement to keep playtime interesting. The recessed pockets also give dogs places to grab and carry it.

Three pouches of Nature's Blend dog food featuring an Australian Shepherd, colorful ingredients and the Nature's Blend logo.

HEALTH & CARE

Dr. Marty Nature’s Blend
This freeze-dried dog food combines meat with fruits and vegetables in a shelf-stable formula that can be served dry or rehydrated with water. The freeze-dried format also makes it convenient to portion and store.

Why it’s a Flap Find:
Our five-year-old petite Golden Doodle, Willow, loves it. After years of coaxing her to eat, this is the first food we’ve found that she genuinely looks forward to eating.

On Flap’s Bookshelf

Stories have always been part of Flapjack’s world. From time to time, we’ll share children’s books and other stories that catch our attention-especially those celebrating animals, friendship, kindness, courage and the special bond between people and their pets.

Some may be books we’ve read and enjoyed ourselves; others may simply be stories we think are worth discovering. We hope you’ll stop by again from time to time to see what’s found its way onto Flap’s Bookshelf.

In the Trees, Honey Bees book cover.

In the Trees, Honey Bees
by Lori Mortensen • Illustrated by Cris Arbo

A beautifully illustrated introduction to the fascinating world of honey bees. Rhyming verse engages younger children, while additional facts give older children—and the grown-ups reading with them—a chance to learn more about life inside a hive.

Why it caught our eye 🐾
We love books that make learning feel like part of the story, especially when they encourage children to appreciate the animals and insects that share our world.

Polly's Pink Piggy Parlor book cover.

Polly’s Pink Piggy Parlor
written & illustrated by Lisa Vento Hainline

Polly is a lovable little pig with interests all her own. With encouragement from her friends, she discovers how something she loves to do can become a special talent—and a wonderful way to make others feel special, too.

Why it caught our eye 🐾
We like its playful message about being yourself, discovering your talents and having the confidence to follow what makes you happy.
