Pet carrier for small dog?

I have two jack russells. One is 3 and the other 9.

I think this is a good idea.. for the sake of your older dog. She's only 9, she has several more years ahead of her yet, and she will just gradually need less exercize as she matures.

The thing with a carrier is, you will have to decide if you will really want to carry the weight of your dog while walking! They do make strollers for pets, which may be an option to consider.

Have you wanted to visit friends or relatives, or perhaps hike the trails at a scenic park? Did concerns over leaving your pet behind prevent you from going? Traveling with your pet is easier than you think.

Air travel with pets falls into two categories, in-cabin and cargo. In-cabin pets must be small enough to fit into a carrier that will slide under the seat in front of you. Pets too large to fit comfortably in a carrier must travel in cargo. If your pet needs to travel in the cargo area of the plane, you will need to check for temperature restrictions. Most cargo areas are not temperature controlled. They do not have air conditioning or heat.

When you make your plane reservations ask if the airline will accommodate your pet. Some airlines do not take pets. If you purchase your airline tickets through the Internet, make sure your pet will be able to travel with you. You will need a reservation for your pet as well as yourself. You will need to inquire of the airline's specific requirements such as plastic crate or soft-sided carrier. Ask the airlines what size will be required for your specific pet.

Airlines have restrictions on the number of pets they will carry in order to provide safe travel for all. Therefore, making your pet's reservation at the same time you purchase your ticket is a good idea. Extra charges for both in-cabin and cargo pets will be assessed.

You will need a health certificate from your veterinarian. Health certificates are good for ten days. If your trip will be longer than that you will need to purchase another health certificate for the return trip. Cost of a health certificate varies by location and vets. Cost can be anywhere between $15 and $45.

Most airlines require a soft-sided carrier for in-cabin pet traveling. Some soft-sided carriers come with wheels just like luggage, which makes it easier to transport your pet through the airport. A soft-sided carrier also reduces the amount of "pet space" under the airplane seat. Window and middle seats have more room underneath than aisle seats due to seat configurations.

Toy breed dogs traveling in cargo will need an airline-approved crate. Generally, these are hard-sided, non-collapsible crates. The airlines usually require the toy breed dog be able to stand and turn around comfortably in the crate. Some airlines will not allow toys to be inside the crate. You may have to pack your toy breed dog's toys separately with your own luggage. Be sure to ask about the airline's requirement of toys inside the crate when you make your reservations. If the airline does allow toys, it is nice to supply your toy breed dog with at least one companion toy for the trip. The crate will also need to have one water dish and one food dish attached to the front of the door. Most airlines will require you to place a bag of food on top of the crate and some inside the food dish. You will also need to provide soft, absorbent material for the bottom of the crate. A soft blanket with your scent works well.

Be sure to provide your toy breed pet Nutri-cal before the flight and as soon as you able to reunite with your pet regardless of whether or not they ride in the cabin with you or in the cargo area. The Nutri-cal will help keep their blood sugars level. Toy breed dogs are more susceptible to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar attacks), which sometimes occur during the stress of traveling. Do not give your toy breed dog tranquilizers.

The motion of the airplane has a soporific effect, which may cause your pet (and people) to drift off into a sleep. Once in the air your toy breed pet will probably sleep most of the trip.

You will probably want to train your toy breed pet before the trip to make your pet a better traveler. There are many resources available that will show you how to accomplish this. One way to help your pet get use to traveling inside a hard-sided crate or a soft-sided carrier is to pack the crate or carrier just as you would for the airplane trip. Take your pet for several trips in the car before you actually go on the airplane trip. Take your toy breed pet to the vet in the same carrier or crate you will be using for the airlines. A soft blanket with your scent is nice to place in the bottom of the crate for your toy breed pet's comfort. Time spent training will definitely pay off for you and your toy breed pet.

Don't hesitate to travel by air with your toy breed pet. A little preparation and planning before the trip is all that is usually required. Flying with your toy breed pet is safer than traveling in an automobile. Don't forget to check with your motel to see if pets are welcome!

Chews Large

What to charge tenants for large dogs?

I own a house and I rent out 2 rooms to friends. I have a small dog & before we moved in one of my roomates got a large breed dog. At first I was ok with it, but it has become a problem because it chews on everything and hes not getting it fixed because he wants to hunt with it. Then I come to find out that my other roomate has to keep his girlfriends largedog for a year because she is leaving the country.

You should definitely ask them for extra money in exchange for them living there with those dogs. If they moved anywhere else, they'd have to pay it.
I know they're your friends, but when it comes to financial matters, you have to use business sense.
And the one roommate's big dog is chewing because it's bored and badly trained. Well trained dogs don't chew. And a fixed dog hunts just as well as an unfixed one.
Personally, I think they are both taking advantage of you, and you're the one who's going to get stuck with the home repairs when they and their dogs move out.
Yes, charge the deposit and the extra rent...and next time you rent your home out, make one of the requirements a signed lease that clearly states NO PETS. I know it's hard to do when the guys are your friends...but if they are real friends, they won't mind that you're protecting yourself and your interests.

Different size dogs fit different lifestyles-but there are gray areas in these guidelines. "How to Pick a Dog?" is an important question for any potential pet owner.

If you live in an apartment, for example, you would suppose a smaller dog fits better into your small space. But, certain small breeds such as terriers are so full of energy they might be less adaptable to your lifestyle than one of the large breeds that has a reputation for mellowing as it gets older. If you want to enjoy the great outdoors with your doggie companion, then one of the medium to large sized "sporting" breeds could be appropriate. But if your lifestyle is more sedentary, these dogs can get bored from lack of activity sometimes resulting in destructive behavior. Small breeds are easier to transport or pick up, so for elderly people these can be ideal. On the other hand, small dogs can be injured by exuberant children who handle them roughly, or from a child falling on them.

Some dogs are more graceful. Some are more rollicking like clumsy adolescents, and are not good in houses filled with fine antiques that can be destroyed with one inadvertent swish of a powerful tail.

The size of the dog has an effect on the training required. It may be cute when a tiny Yorkshire Terrier tries to jump in your lap, but not so cute when your Labrador Retriever jumps up on guests when they walk in the door, and inadvertently claw them in an effort to say hello. Larger dogs can get into more mischief such as stealing food from the kitchen counters. Dogs can learn how to open kitchen drawers or cabinets as well.

If you plan on traveling with your dog, bear in mind that although more and more lodging establishments are "dog friendly," many have strict rules regarding the size of dog they will accept, and sometimes do not allow certain breeds that have a reputation for aggressiveness.

You should always know the height and weight your puppy will reach when he grows to an adult. Large dogs consume more food (greater expense), produce more waste, and in general need more space to roam.

Now that you know how to pick a dog for you, you can find that perfect puppy pal.

Large Breed

Help with food for my large breed puppy?

I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback, Rotwieler cross 6 month old puppy. The vets will only recommend Science Plan large breed puppy food but both a sheep dog trainer and the kennels think that 29% is too high for protein content. We've told the vet this and they are still convinced the food is the best dry food we can feed him. Who is correct?

Hi,
You will most problem find most vet recommend hills science plan. The protein content in the food is high because he is a large breed puppy. he needs to be fed a high protein food as a puppy up until about 12-18 months. If this is not done you have a lot of problems later on in life. The people that you have spoken to are right slightly. if this diet was fed to a small puppy it would be too much. You do not have any thing to worry about. After all the hills science plan has been fully tested and licensed and if it caused problems they wound not be able to sell it! if you are still worried you could change your feed. I use Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Maxi Jr, for my puppy and have no problems and i have used this so many times and recommend it to all my client and they love it! so its up to you from now but the protein content is right for your puppies, age, breed and size.

The working rescue dog from the Swiss Alps also had jobs in security, herding and the hunting sector as well. Very versatile for a dog that is an extra large breed, the St. Bernard will stand approximately 28 inches at the shoulder and a full grown male can weigh from 160 to 250 pounds! So the breed has not only been famous throughout history for their ability to serve as rescue dogs but their size makes them notorious in tales of rescue as well. With their broad chests, thick necks and large heads these puppies are strong and even hold the world strength records for dogs.

If trained when they are young to be socialized and accept people and children they can do very well as adults. Because of their strength, size and weight it is critical they are trained properly as puppies. They are eager to please their owners and even thought they may not be aggressive they will draw your attention to visitors and with their size they can certainly be a deterrent against unwelcome guests. In a large fenced yard with their own extra large dog house to protect from wind, rain, and extreme heat they can be an effective security system. A giant like that barking and moving towards someone could certainly have them rethinking a home invasion.

As with all pets, proper training is aided when they have their space to go to. A sign that they need to relax and get their 200 pound bodies out of the way. The people in the house will need this, and the dog can benefit from having their own dog house to retreat too as well. A large fenced yard will allow them to stretch and roam and then go back to the comfort of their own home. They are adorable and devoted but this way they will be in place to watch the exterior of the house and hear any sounds and shed and slobber outside for a while.

Do you own an large breed dog like a St. Bernard dog and need a extra large dog house?

Is it best to have a collar or a body harness on a small breed dog when walking them?

I have a Chihuahua. Is it better to put her on a collar or body harness to walk her?

A harness is better for small dogs since they tend to have collapsed tracheas from overbreeding. Collar will put too much pressure if they pull at all & will cause them to cough. Harness for walking is fine & gives you better control over the dog. These are not the same ones used for pulling as some folks seem to believe. Do keep a collar on dog for tags & always remove harness when not walking.

When most people walk their dogs, they use a traditional collar and leash set. However, more and more dog owners are trading those in for a dog harness.

Dog harnesses are ideal to walk dogs with for several reasons. One of the main reasons is because of how is distributes their weight. When you walk a dog with a collar, the pulling force will be on their neck, where the collar is. However, if you have a harness on your dog, it will spread the force out underneath their body. This makes it so they can't even feel being pulled.

Dogs choking themselves while they are on a leash or lead is a serious problem. Not only can this cause them discomfort, but it can also cause breathing problems, gagging, vomiting, loss of breath, and in even death in some extreme cases. The chance your dog will choke on a harness is greatly reduced due to the principle behind them. Remember, the force is spread under their body, instead of the neck.

For anyone with a small dog, like Chihuahuas and Yorkies, harnesses are perfect for. These small breeds are often hyper and will try to run away even when they are on a leash and collar. This can cause them to strain their fragile necks. However, a harness is a quick and easy fix for this.

Dog harnesses are also used for sled dogs. Chances are you probably wont need one for this purpose, but it's still a neat piece of information to know about them.

If you decide to get a dog harness there are a few things you should be aware of. Not all dog harnesses are one size fits all. Make sure the dog harness you are buying will fit the dog you need it for. Also, not all dog harnesses work the same. Some harnesses may attach underneath their body and to the collar. Check and make sure you understand how it works before you buy it.

The last thing you will have to decide on is the style and color of the dog harness. Dog harnesses come in a wide range of colors, designs, and styles. Some are made to look more "girly", while others look like they are made for males. I saw a cute harness the other day that was pink with rhinestones embedded in it. It would be perfect for a cute girl dog!

For the small price tag they cost, dog harnesses are well worth the money. They will give your dog the freedom to roam while staying in a safe and comfortable distance.

Medium Big Dog

Best medium/big dog?

My friend has about 12 acres of land in the country and wants a medium or not too huge dog. Its fenced and she wants something that wants lots of room to run. She's had lots of experiance with dogs (smaller/ medium) but doesn't know what to get. Any ideas from personal experiance.

I would reccommend something that likes to run.

Labs and Retrievers tend to have a lot of hip and heart problems, which people don't know, but they do get along with everyone. Both types of dogs also are prone to weight issues so it's hard to promise you will have a normal 50 - 65lbs. labrador.

I would recommend something from the sporting group. A Weimaraner (70 lbs.) is a good choice as is a Pointer (similar in size) or a Vizsla (40 - 55lbs.). All are highly intelligent dogs with minimal health issues - occasionally bloat.

Though not formally recognized as a breed of dog, Cockapoos, a cross between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, have been bred since the 1950s. Breeders have taken the best traits of Cocker Spaniels and Poodles and breed them into the Cockapoo. From the Poodle side, the Cockapoo takes intelligence, relatively little dander and an almost non-shedding coat that comes in many colors. From the Cocker side, it takes a sturdy build and friendly and loyal personality.

A crossbreed like the Cockapoo is also less likely to have many of the genetic problems that purebred breeds do (something called hybrid vigor). In fact, other than the normal care for a dog (grooming, cleaning ears, safety, exercise) Cockapoos have no particular health concerns, though it should be noted that without consistent care and cleaning of the ears, Cockapoos can develop ear infections, thanks to long floppy ears from the Cocker Spaniel side.

Cockapoos can live 18-22 years and come in different types: Teacup Toy (height less than 10 inches and weight under 6 pounds), Toy (height 11 to 14 inches, weight under 12 pounds) and Standard (height over 15 inches and weight over 12 pounds).

Since the Cockapoo is a mixed breed dog and there is currently no breed standard, there are variations in the build of the dog ranging from slim to stocky. The Cockapoo can also be bred with three different coats: a tight curly coat, a medium curl and a flat coat. Though different in style and color, all of the coats are less likely to shed, making them a consideration for allergy sufferers. However, Cockapoos, like all dogs, will have dander (though considerably less than other breeds of dog), a potential allergen. The longhaired coat should be trimmed regularly to prevent matting.

Cockapoos enjoy being around people and their intelligence makes them easy to train. Though active dogs, Cockapoos do not require large outdoor spaces to run around in and are good in apartment settings, provided they are walked at least once a day. It is the friendly personality – as well as forgiving nature and loyalty - that makes it an ideal family pet for those with children and other animals. Even when left alone for extended periods of time, Cockapoos are generally not destructive, though can become anxious so crating is recommend if leaving a Cockapoo alone for more than four hors at a time.

There is a website that has great information on Cockapoos and most other breeds of dogs. It has details that pertain to a dog breeds health, grooming, living conditions, best food choices and more, the website is called: Dog And Cat Facts, and can be found at this url:

I have cracks in joints of Sheetrock ceiling after tape & joint.How can i rectify it?

What is proper method of treating the sheetrock joints?What might be cause of cracks in joints?

I recommend using mesh tape instead of paper tape.

Like humans, canines can develop intense muscular skeletal conditions such as canine hip dysplasia, canine elbow dysplasia, and canine osteoarthritis. Like we as humans use memory foam beds to ease the joint pain we experience, there are also orthopedic dog beds that can provide your dog with the comfort it needs during joint pain.

If your dog is reaching an older age then you probably notice its energy slowly decreasing. If your dog's energy level seems to decreasing at a faster rate than normal or he doesn't express himself as enthusiastically as he used to, then it may be time to get him examined by the vet. Especially if yours is a larger breed dog or he is simply old, he is probably suffering from some kind of joint or muscle condition that causes extreme discomfort. To ease his pain you can get him an orthopedic dog bed.

These beds are much firmer than ordinary canine beds and they work to support the dog's spine better than any other dog bed can. The bed also supports the entire body in a way that will give your miserable dog a quality nights worth of sleep. A filler material is usually recommended to increase the longevity of your dog's new bed. Memory foam is the highest quality filler you can use. Egg crate foam can also be used. However, it is usually used for human mattress pads and toppers and is typically too thin and quite collapsible for a hefty dog. A memory foam dog bed is recommended so that the dog's body weight is supported and comfortable. The memory foam forms around the dog's body providing him with a unique and favorable comfort.

So if your dog is uncomfortable during the night and starting to move a little slower than normal, get him a bed that he will really appreciate. Invest in one of the most popular type of Orthopedic Dog Beds around, the OCK9 Memory Foam Dog Bed today and give your dog the ultimate support.

How do i get my dog to stop attacking people?

I have two dogs, great dane/mastiff and a great dane. My great dane/mastiff was a really great puppy until i had her fixed. Since she's been fixed she has been very protective of me and my property. If anyone comes near my house; let alone knocks on the door she goes berserk. She has bitten one person already, however at the time it was dark out and i thought maybe the person scared her. Either way it is unacceptable behavior. How do i stop this or control it?

Frankly, I would have to advise that you have her put down. That is a dog that could easily kill someone. If you can't bring yourself to do the right thing, then you need to learn how to take complete control of the dog. Checkout the link below for details on how to train a large breed dog.

Dog barking can be a major problem, especially if it's YOUR dog! If there is anything neighbors hate, it's loud noise coming from your house or garden - not everything is music to one's ears. And dogs barking seemingly without good reason is exceptionally annoying.
Dog barking can be controlled through a number of ways, but as with all forms of dog training, positive reinforcement helps more than hitting your dog or just shouting at him to quiet down. You can try to restrain your dog from barking by using a muzzle, but this won't stop him from whining and in the end, you haven't resolved the noise problem. Sometimes dogs bark for no visible reason, but it's only because they're lonely or restless.
One of the lesser known ways of stopping a dog from barking is by countering noise with noise. How to do this? Put a few coins or pebbles inside a small empty can, and whenever your dog starts barking, take the can in hand and shake it. The noise will startle the dog and make him stop barking. He might start up again in a bit, but just shake the can again; sooner or later your dog will understand what the noise means, and be conditioned to respect it.
If you're keeping a puppy and the poor little thing can't stop barking, take him aside and hold his jaws shut. While you're holding the jaws closed, say "No!" firmly. Release the muzzle once the puppy has calmed down... but if he starts barking again, repeat what you did. Sooner or later he'll get the hint, or will at least be too exhausted to continue barking, then go back to sleep. After a few days of this, your puppy will be sure to understand what "No!" means when he barks.
Special collars are another way to train your pets into behaving - but try to avoid shock collars, except in very extreme cases. Tone or vibration collars won't harm your dog, but ought to work as well. Vibration collars may be smarter, especially if you're keeping more than one dog, since it's quieter. Moreover, tone collars may emit sounds similar to cell phones or other digital devices, and they might end up confusing your dog more than helping him.
Stopping dog barking doesn't have to be a tricky task... however, it is important to remain humane and considerate of your dog, at all costs.

The first "dog" is supposed to have been wolves. They were wild, thin, and has worked as a team in one package to become hunter success. A dog and a wolf are the same species, and if they mate, they produce fertile offspring. If a male partner with a bird who could not produce fertile offspring, because both species are different.

Man domesticated wolves by their diet or taking Cub. In exchange for food and care, the Wolves gave their loyalty to their caregivers. The man used their canine companions to hunt for feed and protect your home.

When domesticated the wolf had litters of puppies, there may have been some that were smaller than the rest. In nature the smallest or weakest of the litter would have lost by natural selection, but human intervention allowed them to survive. If the smallest wolf trailer other young wolves, perhaps the same litter, a new strain of the youngest coach, most dogs like wolves began.

Prior to human intervention that wolves have evolved slightly different in different continents. It dingoes in Australia, wild dogs "painted" African, Chihuahuas in South America, etc. But the man dog Wild changed to suit their own purposes.

The man discovered that her canine friends can be trained to perform tasks that was beyond the capacity of man, such as cattle or sheep. The instinct of the game is simply an extension of the hunting instinct packaging that some dogs collies as experts. Other dogs have been trained to pull carts and sleds and some trained to retrieve fishing nets from the sea or shooter of the arrow or spear. So rescuers were created.

The earliest traces of the man working with dogs is of the opinion that the variety of the Nordic countries, but without doubt the man had a close relationship with their canine companions long before records were kept.

There were no inoculations in these days where the dogs died of low rabies and other diseases dog. In cold climates, the dogs that survived were those with heavy coats and warm climate with little odds survived. As survivors were mixed with certain features become apparent.

Farmers have discovered that small dogs are good for digging and deepening in burrows of foxes, rabbits and rats, and began to collect litter mate dogs with other dogs. Thus began the burrows, or "seekers", fierce enough to kill insects.

Emperor important dignitaries and small dogs "used as guards body invisible personnel to take in her long flowing robe. These little dogs have been trained to attack the throat of anyone who approached his master. If you wondered as a face Pekingese, you understand that are the bread this way on purpose.

That civilization took the dogs are used less work, but have acquired new functions. Ladies short tour as a fancy dog or long haired dogs it can cause. The children enjoyed aggressive, playful dogs. When the family dog has a litter, a dog is usually kept. Six months later, the dog father friends with her daughter, which has been maintained, and another batch of dogs are produced, which are considered the favorites for the family.

This is not the selection natural, man upon himself to select the best mood to breed dogs in order to produce dogs for their own design. So what do we mean when we say an animal is a tree?

A pedigree animal is one that has its history. The number of generations requirements vary from race to race, but all animals with pedigree papers registration organization that certifies their ancestry.

Sometimes the word is used as synonymous with race pedigree, but refers to the breed of the animal which has been raided, and the pedigree refers to a record written reproduction. Not all purebred animals have their lineage in the written form.

All pedigree (or race) animals share a thing with crosses, have all, at some point in their lineage fulfilled.

what is a goood way to train a 5 month puppy to walk on leash?

I am 100 pounds, the puppy is already at 70lbs.
Yes- the puppy is a large breed dog. She keeps pulling and I cannot walk with her at all. I am out of breath and my backs and legs are aching after trying to walk. Thus, I need solid advice.

The best way to train a puppy on a leash is to keep control of the situation at all times. Whenever the pup starts jumping around or wants to run off, STOP where you are. Don't take another step. Tell the dog to "heel" and direct her back to your side. As soon as the dog settles down, praise her and start walking again. If she tries to take off STOP again, give her the heel command, and direct her back to your side. If her misbehavior on the leash continues for more than 15 minutes, say "no walks", turn around and go back home. (Continue to STOP walking any time she tries to bolt.)

Don't hit her or yell at her. This will just make "walking" painful, aggravating and frightening for her. Just tell her "no walks" and go back home. Never allow her to drag you around.

If you consistently use this STOP technique, the dog will soon learn that misbehaving on her walks makes the walk end, and cuts off her time outside with you.

All responsible dog owners need a leash when taking your dog for a walk. In many cases a proper leash is used at home especially if your dog is aggressive towards friends, strangers other family members and or pets.

Several options are available depending on your needs. They should fit correctly and be adjusted for comfort while wearing the leash. Always make them wear a collar and leash in public places for safety with the ID and rabies tags, just in case they get loose.

When the collar and leash is new try it inside first, then in the yard if you have one followed by short public strolls and observe behavior carefully for a few days. If your dog gets loose and injures someone or another animal often law suits follow, NOT GOOD! That's why the correct collar and leash is critical. Don't be tempted if their pulling you around, this is a common trap many folks fall into after nearly having their arm yanked out of its socket.

Many leash and collar options are available now using more advanced technology. The chest leash offers better control, the retraceable leashes are popular now but can still be a problem if you let your dog have to much of a lead always use caution as sudden excitement can cause trouble. A shorter, maybe 6 foot lead is advisable.

Collar options:

In the old days and even now, dogs were trained primarily with choke chain collars and while this is a tool option it is not considered the best choice nowadays. There are alternative choices we have today for training dogs, like head halter collars and no pull halters each having it's devoted followers as does the simple buckle collar.

Controversy surrounds another type of training collar and it has been deemed by many as being cruel and inhumane. This type collar is better known as the prong collar. It looks like a dungeon torture chamber device, but it is really a kinder, gentler tool for many dogs and helps stop your dog from pulling your arm off. It is not right for all dogs, but it works quite well on anxious, strong or dogs that seem to have a high endurance for pain.

Prong collars are often the most misunderstood of the training options available today. They are not recommended for daily use and are not designed for very aggressive dogs. They are too hard on dogs that act scared or show fear once outside their comfort zone. This collar is not for young pups, however they are often used carefully by expert trainers for older pups.

The pinch or prong collar is made of interlocked metal links, each with two blunt prongs that pinch the dog's neck skin when the collar is tugged on. They pinch similar to you pinching your own skin. They press evenly around the neck and they will not penetrate or break the skin.

Some companies now have rubber tips, in my experience they reduce efficiency. Your dog needs to feel the pointed prongs and the rubber simply acts as padding thereby stopping the prongs from doing their job. Putting rubber tips on the prongs means they are too sharp to begin with (test a metal one before buying with your own finger tips) FYI if the rubber tip comes off you may hurt your dog.

Prong/pinch collars are not for daily use and should only be used a few times for training purposes mostly. Although for more hard headed dogs it often takes a little longer. Remain calm yet assertive, and consistent because typically dogs are just a mirror our own emotions and actions.

Often trainers only use the pinch/prong collar on large dominant breeds, but the choices of course are made by the owner and the dogs personal relationship, show respect and your dog will give respect. Prong collars are not status symbols, or jewelry and should not be used as such.

Always set your dog up for success, this helps build confidence, and the rewards are a calm submissive state which allows you to live in harmony and peace with your best friend.

Throughout history people have always loved dogs. They have been our faithful companions, friends and protectors. In more recent years our dogs have become more than pets and are now, at times, almost accessories.

For example our dogs now have outfits! Including, but in no way limited to, jumpers, dresses, hats and even shoes. They are dressed in the finest apparel, given the prettiest collars smothered with diamantes and are even carried in handbags.

This started as a celebrity trend, with the super rich showering their pampered pooches with gifts and designer labels but like most celebrity trends it has now trickled down to the high street. We love our dogs like they are members of the family and not only care for them but in many cases baby them. This obviously makes sense as it seems it is extremely common to purchase a dog as a baby replacement, I have to admit I have done this myself.

I also have to admit that my dog is no exception. She has a reindeer suit which she wears at Christmas, a teddy bear suit which she wore for my son's birthday party and even a pumpkin suit for Halloween. When we go for our family portrait photo every year she always comes along too, she is after all a member of our family.

That's the reason we just can't take any chances when it comes to her safety. She has her very cute pink and diamante collar but I always ensure she has a safety Id tag hanging from it, luckily I make them myself so I can make sure they are just as pretty as she is. Her tag has her photo engraved on the front and all her relevant details on the back.

It is horrible and almost impossible to comprehend but 2500 dogs go missing every week in the UK and a staggering 38% of missing dogs are actually stolen, even 35% of missing cross breed dogs are reported stolen so this terrible theft does not only apply to pedigree dogs. It is vital that as dog owners we protect our pets in every possible way. To most of us our dogs become more than a pet, they really are part of the family, they are included in every part of our lives and that can sometimes put them at risk.

Always ensure your dog is wearing an ID tag, never leave them unattended in public areas, check that they can't escape through holes in fences and hedges and be aware that there is a very real risk of theft.
