    Why would you need a credit card?

    You can get any of those foods in small petstores, and most cities (if not all) carry most of the foods I mentioned above. I'm sure you could find a place where you live that sells a good quality food.

    Yeah the beniful is probally the problem. Do you have a local cenix? They have canidae, and canidae is much cheaper then beniful. Beniful is just junk, it's like you eating potatoe chips all of your life. It will probally help Reggie loose weight also.
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!

    No, the only pet store that we have around here is walmart, the nearest Petsmart is in Gainesville, and the nearest little man pet store is in Cleaveland, Georgia.

    Wal-Mart carries Purina ONE - it isn't a premium food but it certainly is more quality than Beneful.

    It may help a bit with her shedding to put her on a food that is a bit more quality.

    I went to an adoption event for pugs with my co-worker. The woman in charge of the adoption has five pugs of her own. She stressed that pugs are heavy shedders. She said she has been known to need to vacuum her home twice a day. BTW, my co-worker adopted a little black puggily girl from this woman several days later. I would love some day to have a pug of my own. Though my present dogs don't shed at all, I have two cats that make up for it. It just means the vacuum cleaner gets a bit more use.

    Yes, pugs are super heavy shedders. Our dog grooming salon has SEVERAL pugs who come in to get shaved. The people swear it is the only way they can stand the shedding. We use a #10 blade and NO the dog is not bald! The pug has very dense fur, so it comes out very short and smooth. So even though many will scorn this advice, I have pug owners who LOVE this and do it all year long.

    My sister has 2 pugs. She can't keep up with the shedding no matter how much she brushes them. It's part of owning a pug.
