Avocados Make Dog Cat Coats Shine Improve Pet Health - Avoderm Natural Food Challenge #ad

Pets

I was compensated for this sponsored post made possible by Mom Spark Media. Thoughts are my own. 

I am an unashamedly hopeless animal lover and adore dogs in particular, especially our family pet miniature pinscher Dexter who makes frequent appearances on MommyBlogExpert. Both my little four-legged guy and I support no-kill animal shelters and we never miss a great dog festival like the annual 90210 Woofstock in Beverly Hills. I'm also conscious of what I feed my children and hubbie and that concern overflows onto what goes into our doggie's tummy. So when I learn about great pet food products like AvoDerm® Natural premium dog and cat foods that improve the health and quality of pet lives, I feel it's important to share that information with my readers.

In this post I want to let my fellow pet lovers know about the AvoDerm Challenge so you can see a softer, shinier coat on your feline or canine in just six weeks. That's right. The brand guarantees it because AvoDerm® Natural premium dog and cat foods are specifically formulated to produce those kinds of enhancements in your pet's life.

The entire AvoDerm line is indeed great tasting and healthy, fortified with the quality nutrition your pet's body and soul need: meat proteins, rich in omega 3 and six fatty acids from natural avocados. According to the brand not only will your dog or cat's coat shine it helps maximize the overall good health of your animal. Who knows, it might even actually extend your beloved pet's life span.

Shake Up Your Wake Up Mom Ideas to Start the Day With A Fun & Healthy Breakfast for Kids

Good Food

Get ready. In this sponsored post I'm going to be inspiring you about about getting your family to eat a healthy breakfast. Moms have been saying it for generations -- I know my mom sure told me all these things while I was growing up in the 1960s before McDonalds ever invented the Egg McMuffin. 

• Never skip the first meal of the day
• Always eat a good breakfast
• You really need to have some protein first thing in the morning if you're going to do well in school
• My mom said _______________ (fill in the blank)

You get the idea. I'm betting your own mom told you one or more of all these things, too, when you were little. I'd also be willing to wager that you've tried -- not always successfully -- to imbue all that motherly good eating habit wisdom into your own growing children.

Sad but true, breakfast and starting the day on a healthy note is in danger of extinction. According to Statistic Brain and the U.S. Food and Agricultural Organization (FDA), only 44% of people eat breakfast every morning and that 22% of the breakfast skippers are obese and horror of horror 73% of today's kids who do eat breakfast are ingesting sugar sweetened cereal one or more days per week. There is definitely something wrong here because a full 21% of the sales at fast food chains come from breakfast items.

The good news is that we can put breakfast back on the menu at home for our kids right now. All it takes is a little more enthusiasm and creativity by us parents, both moms and dads, and other caregivers of our children. The key is making breakfast not a chore or a boring every day activity but making the breakfast table and the food we put on it fun, appetizing looking and tasty so kids will make it a priority and come running to do what's good for us all: get the proper nutrition at the start of every day.

Skip the fast food drive through during morning carpool. Instead why not consider getting your kids to try something really delicious before they leave the house on those crazy, hectic mornings: new Silk Fruit & Protein. It comes in three delicious flavors: Mixed Berry, Mango Peach, and Strawberry Banana -- they all sound so good I don't know which one to try first. 

Not only is the brand nutritious and an excellent source of protein, it is easy to serve: all you have to do is pour it into a glass and watch your child enjoy it. It's not just good for kids, either. You should give it a try, too. You can drink this straight up out of the carton (glass optional), blended into a smoothie you whip up in your blender or added to a variety of recipes you make for your family.

Silk Fruit & Protein has so many benefits

• Good source of soy protein
• Excellent source of calcium, vitamin D & vitamin C
• No cholesterol or saturated fat
• Non-GMO verified
• Free of dairy, lactose, gluten, casein, egg & MSG
• Absolutely no artificial color or flavors
• Just 130 calories per cup
• Comes in half gallon & quart sizes
• Affordably priced and available at the supermarket
