This is one of our favorite dog shampoos because of its gentle, non-irritating formula. It has colloidal oatmeal to relieve itchy skin, according to the brand. NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio uses this shampoo on her havanese and bichon frise mix Bella, and says it leaves Bella’s fur extra soft. Another perk: It leaves behind a subtle honey scent.

Basepaw’s dog DNA test comes with everything you need to collect a saliva sample and send it to the brand’s lab. After a few weeks, you’ll get results via email that dive into their health, physical traits and breed mix. This test is especially helpful if you have a rescue pup and don’t know much about their background.

Cats prefer running water to still water because their instincts tell them it could have bacteria that’ll make them sick, experts told us in our guide to preparing for a new kitten. This stainless steel drinking fountain has a quadruple filtration system and holds up to 108 ounces of water, which can last for up to a week, according to the brand. It also has dual water flow modes that lets you choose between a more fountain-like flow or one that’s a bit calmer.

I have a very picky French bulldog who requires the softest, most cuddly place to sleep. I bought three other beds that she rejected before finding this one, which she loves. The round shape allows her to curl up and it has a raised edge that she likes to rest her chin on. The bottom of the bed has rubber grips so it doesn’t slip and slide on my hardwood floors.

Keep your cat’s shedding to a minimum with this brush, which has metal pins with rubber tips to penetrate thick fur. After you’re done brushing, click a button on the handle and the pins retract, leaving behind the hair for easy disposal. The brush also has a loop on the handle so you can hang it up when you’re done.

Pets aren’t always the cleanest eaters — they can spill water as they drink it and push around their bowl looking for every last morsel of food. Placing a mat underneath their food bowls can prevent them from slipping around and also protect your floors from spills. This mat is made from non-toxic silicone and has raised edges to help contain the mess. Plus, you can roll it up for easy storage. One thing to note: Though the mat comes in 13 shades, only the grass green color is currently 50% off.
All of my recommendations above are based on NBC Select’s previous coverage and reporting. All the deals I recommend are 20% off or more and highly rated with at least a 4.0-star average rating from hundreds of reviews.
