			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was recently invited to take a look at a new service by Text Link Ads, a reputable online advertising company. <a href="http://www.reviewme.com/">ReviewMe</a> connects bloggers and potential advertisers. In this case, pet related advertisers. Bloggers give an unbiased review of the product, service, or website the advertiser wants to promote. The blogger is paid for the post and the advertiser gets publicity. A win-win situation, right? </p>
<p>Well, if you&#8217;ve been following the get paid to post controversy, you&#8217;re probably thinking, &#8220;Great, another one. Just what we need.&#8221; However there are a few very important differences here. ReviewMe will not allow advertisers to demand a positive review. Instead, this service points out that constructively critical comments can help improve the product or service and are just as valuable as glowingly positive reviews. Also, ReviewMe requires the blogger to specify that the post has been sponsored in some way. </p>
<p>My review of this new service? A very easy to use interface. I was able to navigate around the site with no trouble. The ability to see all of the reviews the blogger needs to do in one spot is particularly nice. I think this service will be a wonderful opportunity to bloggers and advertisers alike. If you&#8217;re planning to launch a new pet product and want to build some online buzz, I&#8217;d advise taking a close look at ReviewMe.</p>
<p>This post is sponsored by ReviewMe.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=ozZuAQTiSro&#038;offerid=86036.55873&#038;type=2&#038;subid=0" ><img border=0 src="http://www.petsmart.com/media/ps/images/products/detail/thumb/August04/thumb_55873_3af11.jpg" /></a><img border=0 width=1 height=1 src="http://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=ozZuAQTiSro&#038;bids=86036.55873&#038;type=2&#038;subid=0" /></p>
<p>I used to worry that my dogs would drink all the water in the dog bowl and get thirsty while I was working or shopping, especially if it was a hot day and they were barking at the cats. (Their favorite activity. They don&#8217;t bark at all the cats, just the black and white one belonging to the neighbor and a stray all black cat.)</p>
<p>When I had the opportunity to test the <a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=ozZuAQTiSro&#038;offerid=86036.55873&#038;type=2&#038;subid=0" >Contech Water Dog Motion Activated Outdoor Pet Fountain</a><img border=0 width=1 height=1 src="http://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=ozZuAQTiSro&#038;bids=86036&#038;type=2&#038;subid=0" />, I decided to give it a try. Well, it works great, as long as you don&#8217;t constantly walk in front of it, which sets off the sensor. I had to spend a few days working on the way it was positioned to get it set up so I wasn&#8217;t constantly walking by and setting it off. However, I didn&#8217;t install it on a faucet attached to the house- it is set up on a faucet I had piped over to the dog run so they can just go out the doggy door and get a drink without running loose in the rest of the yard when I&#8217;m not there. If you&#8217;re installing the Water Dog on your house, it may not be as difficult to get it adjusted. </p>
<p>Two of the dogs figured out how to use the Water Dog right away, but one had a lot of trouble and he kind of waits for one of the other dogs to get it started and then gets a drink. Intelligence challenged dogs may need a bit of help. </p>
<p>My dogs are happy because they can run up and get a drink anytime they want and I&#8217;m happy because I don&#8217;t have to worry that they&#8217;ve run out of water in their dish. Even better, the water is really clean and fresh. The dogs and I give the <a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=ozZuAQTiSro&#038;offerid=86036.55873&#038;type=2&#038;subid=0" />Contech Water Dog  Motion Activated Outdoor Pet Fountain<img border=0 width=1 height=1 src="http://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=ozZuAQTiSro&#038;bids=86036&#038;type=2&#038;subid=0" /> four bones. </p>
