I like to go visit my sister for the weekend. However, I have a couple of dogs, and they are not as welcome at her house as I am. So if I want to visit my sister, I have to put them in a pet kennel. I really didn't like the idea of the caged kennels. That just seems cruel to me. Plus my dogs are spoiled and would die if they were in a cage for the entire weekend. I found a cage free pet kennel that I just love. I visited the kennel, and it was just one big play area for dogs. Someone is there twenty-four hours a day. And I could get online from my sisters computer and check in via web cam. My dogs love going to this pet kennel, and I love going to see my sister.
Owning a pet is a priceless opportunity to connect with helpless animals that just need love and attention. Having my dog is such a blessing. But, I do realize how expensive pets can be, from grooming to food to beds and accessories. So, being on a tight budget, I have been shopping wholesale pet supply stores. There are tons of them online. And, they offer everything from dog apparel to pet treats to grooming supplies. The prices are much better than regular retail stores, and they often offer specials. Sparky is always wagging his tail, especially when his doggy biscuits come in the mail.
When my 6 year old is having a rough day, I like to take him to the local pet store and let him love on some little animals. We can't leave until he has pet each one and given them a hug. He even takes time to see the mice and rats. His favorite though is the little puppies, we will get several puppies out at one time and to hear him giggle and be carefree just makes my day too. I know that these animals have feelings too, so I don't think he's the only one who has a great time.
After you get a puppy there will be a lot of things you need to buy to help accommodate him. First he will need a crate to sleep in at night and when you have to leave the house so he doesn't potty on the floor. Also, you will need to get plenty of chew toys so he doesn't chew on your furniture. Of course, puppy food and treats make sure you don't overdo the treats or he may gain too much weight. A leash and collar will be necessary for taking him for walks. And last, but not least, some puppy shampoo, 'cause it's more fun to cuddle a puppy that doesn't stink.
