20 Best Breeds of with Having Small Children!

Dogs can teach kids responsibility, compassion, and cooperation — not to mention they're the best playmates anyone could ask for. Before you adopt any pup, however, always research the best kind of breed for your children and lifestyle. Some dogs do better as playmates for rambunctious older kids, while others have the gentle, patients souls more suited for little ones. If you have young children at home, consider adopting an older dog as well. Temperaments can vary based on the individual animal, but these 20 friendly breeds are a great place to start your pet adoption search, according to the American Kennel Club:

https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/best-family-dogs/

How you choose can depend on your living arrangements, schedule, activity levels, and budget. The average lifetime cost of raising a dog is more than $20,000 across about 10–15 years, including food, supplies, and veterinary care. When you welcome a new pet into the family, expect to provide your pup with consistent, loving training as well. Your child will also benefit from learning how to interact safely and respectfully with animals. Don't forget to create a family schedule for walking, playing, feeding, and grooming! With sweet, loving dog breeds like these, your crew won't be able to imagine life without their canine pal.

Choosing The Perfect Horseshoes!

Who is a lover out there? Well if you are a horse owner, here’s some information you need to know!

shouldn’t be taken lightly. They are your horse’s only protection to their hooves and the only cushion from their hooves to the ground. In addition, your horse may have odd-shaped feet or feet issues that can prevent them from being able to use regular horseshoes. You must always be cautious when applying and buying the horseshoes or it can definitely go sideways. So to make sure that doesn’t happen here are some tips to help with the horseshoe picking process.

Horses in the wild do not require shoes unlike domesticated breeds of horses. Those horses that are not worked out and trained regularly on the hard ground do not need them. If a horse’s foot is hurt, you will not be able to ride it. In order to maximize a horse’s use, horseshoes are needed in order to protect the horse’s feet. When they are not there, the hoof walls can crack. And a horse with sore feet will not be able to be used for riding. You also do not want to neglect your horse by causing unnecessary pain. You must check all four of the horse’s feet every day. You need to pick them out and ensure that no dirt, stones or other foreign objects get stuck. Daily cleaning of the hooves is crucial to proper hoof care. Failing to clean your horse's hooves on a regular basis puts him at risk

You must also check if the hooves get loose or no longer fits properly. Shoed horses also require the visit of the about every 4 to 6 weeks. Each visit would mean placing new shoes. A horse’s hoof grows, just like our nails, thus the shoe will stop fitting correctly after some time. The functions and movements of the foot must be taken into consideration when fitting shoes. Commonly used for shoes are steel and aluminum. Your farrier can help you decide which kind is best for your horse. To make them lighter and to give them a better grip, a groove underneath are placed on most shoes. Those placed in the front limbs are circular, while those on the hinds are diamond-shaped. Few horses have the perfect conformation and many have improper feet. Many horses have boxy feet or club feet while others may have broad flat feet and some have feet that turn in or out. And these characteristics of a horse's foot should be properly addressed. Some of these characteristics are dependent on the breed of the horse. Shoes must fit to accommodate the horse’s foot. Foot diseases may cause severe lameness and may be made worse by owner neglect, so don’t take horseshoeing for granted.

Traveling With Your Pet Survival Guide!

Taking your dog along can make the family vacation more fun for everyone if you plan carefully. Also, you don’t want to leave your pet at a doggy daycare or hotel. You want your furry friend to be with you. It can be a real hassle though; with the bathroom breaks, the plane ride, and the overall maintenance. But let there be no fear your plane pet tips are here! Here are some trip tips to make traveling with your dog enjoyable.

A crate is an excellent way to keep your dog safe in the car and is required for airline travel. It can also keep your pet from getting into trouble in a hotel or at your host’s home. Crates are available from most pet supply stores. When packing your crate be sure to include a comfortable mat, your dog’s favorite toy, a water bottle, and your dog is ready to go. When you are traveling by plane here are some things you need to do. When traveling by plane, plan to visit your veterinarian before your trip. Certification of health must be provided to the airline no more than 10 days before travel. Rabies and vaccination certificates are also required. Your dog should be at least 8 weeks old and weaned. When making your reservations, you must make reservations for your dog. There are restrictions on the number of animals permitted on each flight. They are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. Remember that each airline has its variations on regulations and services.

For example, if your crate doesn’t meet its requirements, the airline may not allow you to use it. They may, however, allow your dog in the passenger cabin if your crate or carrier fits under the seat in front of you. Before you leave home, teach your dog to relieve himself on multiple surfaces — not just grass! Having the ability to potty on different terrains, such as concrete, mulch, and gravel will alleviate his discomfort as well as the possibility of accidents while you’re on the road or otherwise. Bring a supply of bags to clean up afterward and a leash.

To make sure your dog doesn’t get bored, provide him with a few new toys — and a couple of old favorites. You might want to include a puzzle-type toy to keep him occupied. You may also want to pack food such as treats and mini dog food bites. Remember, it’s a vacation. Traveling can be stressful, but a calm owner usually has a calm pet. Our animals pick up on our stress, so if you’re nervous and uptight, your dog may show stress and anxiety, too

Why is Beneficial to Seniors?

Pet therapy is a practice that not many home care companies use. This is a therapy session between a dog and a senior. Although it may not seem to be as beneficial as you may think, it actually is helpful in multiple ways which we will be discussing. Pet therapy is a unique way to provide a sense of happiness to seniors who are either living by themselves, in group homes or who feel isolated and alone. They may have also experienced something that changed their life such as a spouse or relative who died. This can cause them to become very sad not having someone to talk to.

As I said feeling alone can be very depressing and with pet therapy, it gives seniors a chance to feel happier with a furry little pup walking into their house or room waiting to be loved by them. They can provide a sense of comfort in a comfortless situation. These dogs provide warmth to the alienated seniors. It can also make the seniors feel more self-confident and useful because they feel responsible for something in taking care of the dog. They also provide stability in stressful situations. Plus, it can reduce depression and anxiety.

You can enroll your pet after doing a thorough training process. After you do this you can enroll them in multiple organizations, such as The American Kennel Club. If you don’t do this it can also be an ESA (emotional support animal) for yourself. You must get a medical slip from the doctor though. You can also create your own therapy program. The process depends on the condition of the senior. Some seniors can play fetch, give it treats, and brush it. Others though just need it as a lap dog. In that case, the therapy animals would be smaller breeds such as Shih Tzus and Yorkie. Plus if the senior can walk the dog this also provides physical benefits. Another thing is the ability to touch and pet something which can actually lower the blood levels of the seniors.

For dementia patients, can be soothing to those who have difficulty using language. They can also help improve socialization- they listen without judgment and give unbiased affection, especially when a senior may desire to share the thoughts they may not be comfortable telling family or friends. In addition, seniors with heart conditions who own pets tend to outlive those who don’t. Studies show that seniors who are active and always around others, or who own a pet decline in health far less rapidly than isolated or depressed . These benefits can change a senior’s life forever because seniors suffer from depression usually as a result of loneliness or isolation, either because friends and family members cannot visit on a regular basis, or they aren’t as active as they previously were. Perhaps a loving spouse has passed away. Contact with therapy animals can bring some withdrawn seniors out of their shells, making them happier and more communicative.

Which Pet Is Right For You - The Final Chapter!

Have you ever wanted a dog? Or any other pet? Dogs are probably the most popular pet, but also the most complicated pet. As you look into breed and where you are going to get the pup, you realize that’s it is a lot harder than it seems. You can often find your self-feeling overwhelmed. The key is to know what you need and want before you invest your time into finding what you want.

The first step for finding a dog is deciding what breed and size you would like. The larger dog breeds include Pitbulls, German Shepards, Golden Retrievers, cattle dogs, labradors, Labrador Retrievers, and standard Poodles. Those are some of the more common large dog breeds. The pitbull and the german shepard have been commonly used as guard dogs. They can also have a mean streak, so be careful if you have small children who could agitate the large possibly aggressive dog. Cattle dogs and labradors are common working dogs and are great for farms and in the countryside. They can also be great family pets. Another breed is the Great Dane who is also a very good and gentle dog for families, but they can also work despite their tall frail figure. Golden retrievers and standard poodles are very popular and obedient dogs. They are very easy to train and can be great family pets. These two both need to be groomed often and will require very advanced brushing tools to care for their manes. These larger breeds will also require larger supplies. They will need a large bed, large cages, large food bowls. brushes, collars, leashes (I recommend retractable leashes), heavy-duty shampoo and conditioner, and you will also need large bones to keep them busy. I would recommend buying some great toys as well. I would recommend buying durable frisbees, balls, and other durable chew toys.

Another size of dogs is your medium dogs which can include breeds like corgis, bulldogs, cocker spaniels, border collie, dalmatians, beagles, and terriers. These dogs are some of the best family dogs. They also have high energy. I recommend lots of toys and walks. Walking your dogs is a very important thing to do. They will also need to chew bones and treats. The border collie is a very furry dog and will probably require lots of grooming. You will need to take into consideration their temperaments as well.

If you are using certain dogs for emotional support or therapy, I would suggest the cocker spaniel or the border collie. They are the most empathetic and also the easiest to train in the medium dog category. Finally, the small breed dogs, are the cute, little, and precious babies that we all know of. These types of breeds include Chihuahuas, Yorkshire Terriers (Yorkies), Carin Terriers, Minature Poodles, Shih Tzus, Pugs, Maltese, Bichon Frise, Havanese, Papillon, and Pomeranian. These are just a couple of fluffy foo dogs. They are the cutest dogs on the map. They tend to be the most expensive and require lots of attention. Surprisingly all of these dogs are easy to train. They are very cuddly and are often considered lap dogs. These dogs are often recommended to be therapy or emotional support animals. They are very sweet. They also will need lots of grooming especially Poodles, Havanese, and Bichon Frise. Chihuahuas are often claimed to be mean, but can actually be quite good as therapy dogs. They are spunky, energetic companions. They can cling to one person but in many cases this isn’t the case. If your dog is a mutt or mixed breed they will gain traits from both sides so make sure to do your research before you invest in a dog. You will also need to consider who or where you are going to get your pet. You could get your pet from a breeder. Or you could get your pet from an organization. These places foster usually older small breed pets. They can also foster younger young dogs. But usually, they foster older dogs. The advantage of doing this is you know the back story of the pets. You can also go to the pound. The pound collects abused and neglected. They take pets who are surrendred lost and all of the above. Adopting pets from the pound is also a very good idea. It will save the life of a furry friend who could be your new best friend. Just like any of the other animals of this series.

Which Pet is Right For You Part 3!

In the previous parts, we’ve talked about easier pets like reptiles, ferrets, hamsters, fish (the easiest one), and birds. But these pets might not be enough. You may want to a more independent pet that you can still form a bond with. Cats and bunnies are very qualified pets for those needs. They require care and you can do many things with them, but they are not needy. A pet is a very important decision, so when you think about which pet you want to be sure to make a wise choice. You also want to consider how much time you spend at home. The money you are willing to spend. Think about all of this while reading about the fluffiest things on earth: cats and bunnies!

Your feline friend the kitty, is a very simple animal. At the same time though requires a lot of things to keep them from being bored. They will require basic things as well, and they typically like to roam around and do things as they please. Be warned! They are climbers, so if you have expensive antiques on a high shelf they can still get to them. They will need things to keep them active. You can give them one thing for free though. Personal space. Cats like to do as they please and preferably don’t want to be smothered. The best thing you can buy for your cat is towers and scratchers galore. They want to scratch and climb things all day. Plus it gives them there own personal space. They also love toys like the feather on a stick. For the basics, you will need to buy shampoo, a brush, a water bowl, a food bowl, a collar, a leash, and a litter box. You’re probably wondering why I added a leash to that list; This is because cats often need exercise. They need to be challenged and need to not be bewildered. Walking your cat expends its energy. If you don’t have time to do that you can also buy a cat wheel. A cat wheel expends the energy as well. This also doesn’t require you to walk if you do not have time. In conclusion, felines are very independent, but still, need their fair share of maintenance.

The bunny requires a little less. You’ll need a cage for your bunny or will you let him roam the house 24/7? That is your choice. You will also need a litter box with bunny safe litter. I also recommend sturdy food and water bowls made of ceramic or heavy metal. You will need a carrying case as well. You will also need to thoroughly groom your rabbit with brushes and combs. Provide fresh hay and greens for your bunny as well. You will also need to bunny proof your house since they are fast and like to nibble on stuff.

I also recommend getting your bunny a bunny buddy. Having two isn’t harder than having one. Plus it will keep your rabbit from getting lonely when you are out of the house. They also need lots of space. I recommend you buy a playpen for your rabbit. This will provide a way to help it play in a safe manner with its buddy (if you buy one).

I would also recommend a rabbit-savvy vet. Since rabbits are considered an exotic species. They need different care other than dogs or cats. They also like to play a lot so buy them stuff like rabbits tunnels and jingle balls. They sell these light balls at local pet stores. Speaking of toys, the next animal that I will be talking about in pt. 4 is the one and only the dog. The dog is the most known pet but has a lot of things you need to know so that will be the only pet I cover in pt. 4

Which Pet is Right For You Part 2

In the previous part of this series, I discussed easier pets. I discussed the fish and the bird. The next to pets are fairly easy, but they still have their requirements. The common pocket animals include hamsters (most common), rats, and ferrets. I’ll be discussing the requirements for hamsters and then touching on rats and ferrets. I will touch the topic of reptiles. Now reptiles are for some people and not for others, so if you don’t want to feed a frog cricket, feed your snake a mouse, or feed your lizard cockroach then you may want to reconsider. Without further do I present “What Pet is Right For You” part two.

So for a reptile, you’ll need a tank. Definitely a tank a nice spacious terrain. The tanks range from $15 (super small) to $150 (super large). The best part of having a reptile is there are so many creative ideas that people have made over the years. For example, the lizard lounger. This is like a hammock for your lizard. You can also get caves, perches, rocks. You can also purchase toys and other goodies. After all the fun stuff though comes the gross stuff like when you have to drop that poor little mouse or bug into the tank and watch them eat it. To be honest that is a little hard for some people to get past. Once you do though you will have a very great buddy. You also must make sure that the temperature is perfect since reptiles are cold-blooded. You have to have the correct humidity as well. These are all things to consider before you buy a reptile. There is also more advice on many pet websites for more details.

The next pet is the pocket animal. This includes hamsters, guinea pigs, and ferrets. Hamsters will be the main topic for this paragraph.

Hamsters require lots of things and they actually are one of the harder pets. They require lots of things to be healthy and happy. They are really amazing pets though so it makes it worth it. You will need a sipper water bottle that lots of small animals use including guinea pigs and ferrets. They will all require a large cage with lots of things to do inside. This includes a wheel for hamsters, toys like blocks, and tunnels. You also will need chips at the bottom of the cage. This is for them to know to go to the bathroom. You also will require a food bowl. I also will recommend buying a ball so that your hamster can explore the world outside of the cage.

Now for a guinea pig, this is quite similar to requirements except for they are bigger and they don’t have to stay in the cage all the time. Guinea pigs will need to have chew toys. Plus they need a healthy diet of vegetables and grains.

For a ferret, you will need to be prepared for a high maintenance animal. Ferrets require 3-4 hours of supervised playtime every day. Some people let them roam like a cat or dog, but I would be cautious with that method. Ferrets also need toys and a cage. They are strict carnivores so they will need lots of animal protein. They will also need a place to go to the bathroom like a litter box. Ferrets also require sturdy food and water bowls. I recommend buying the type that sticks to the side of the cage since ferrets are known to tip there bowls.

The next two pets require more than the ferret. These two are the cat and the bunny. The cat and the bunny are definitely pets that you can make a bond with. But this is to an extent since both animals are independent. So check in to see part three of “Which Pet is Right For You”. These two are definitely more common than the ferret.

What Type of Pet Is Right For You?

When you are thinking of adopting a pet it may be wise to read into animal type, breed, cost, maintenance, and size. You may want a simple pocket animal, or you may desire a dog or cat of your own. You could even want a fish or reptile. The pet that requires the least maintainest is more a fish than say a golden retriever or siamese kitten. Here are multiple choices and their requirements down below.

The first and simplest pet is fish. You can pick from multiple types of fish; The simplest type of fish is the Betta fish. The Betta fish don’t have to be put in a tank, unlike other fish who do. But I definitely recommend getting a tank no matter what fish you buy. You can get a fish from 3 different categories: goldfish, tropical fish, and betta fish. Goldfish have special flakes that they are fed. Tropical fish and Betta fish are flexible between pellets and flakes. You also will need to buy rocks, a filter, and any other decorations. Plus is you get more than one fish you will need more supplies. Plus buy a water cleaner and a net.

The next pet is a bird. It requires a little more work. You can also create a stronger bond. You may be able to teach it tricks, and it is probably the perfect family that is not too needy.

You will need to buy a bunch of supplies though. You need a non-toxic cage and food. The food should be a diet according to the bird. You will also need a perch to fit in your large cage. You will also need plenty of toys because like fish they spend their lives in one area. You also will need a hiding place. Just a little nook or structure. They will enjoy their quiet time greatly. Cage liners are also necessary. Don’t get too crazy you can just use newspaper or chips. You could even use paper. The last thing you will need is a first aid kit just in case. Now, this is going to be a long topic, so stay tuned to hear about other pets. These will be a series of two pets daily. But these two are definitely great beginner pets just like the next two. The reptile and the pocket animal. To hear more check-in tomorrow.

Walking My Cat!! Why Walking Your Cat Is Beneficial To Its Health and Happiness!

Yep you read the title right. You may think this crazy! But walking your cat actually is very beneficial to you and your cat.

It will establish a practice of obedience. If your cat is very energetic walking is one of the ways to expend its energy. Sometimes your cat gets bored and finds other ways to expend all of that energy. This could lead to it attacking you or other humans, attacking other animals, biting things, urinating, scratching things, and escaping the house. If your cat does not have a proper way to expend its energy then your cuddly friend will soon turn into a vicious beast.

Not only are cats dangerous if not exercised, but it could cause them to become obese or out of shape. Cats need to be fit and active always needing something to do. Walking your cat is a perfect way to expend their energy.

It can also build a bond between you and your cat. Many cat owners may want to do more with their cats. But it is very easy to find things to do; You just need to think outside the box. Walking your cat can also help you better understand your cat’s behaviors. Like what sets them off or makes them happy. If they like to explore or stay on the path. They may even become more friendly to other animals after being socialized properly.

You can also authorize the relationship that says I’m not afraid of you and you will listen to me. Plus your cat may get bored staying in one place, and if it is notorious for escaping this may be a solution to stop it from leaving your lovely backyard. You can take over the situation with your cat by taking the right steps to make your cat more attentive to you.

You can also invest in things like big large towers if it likes to explore and scratchers if it likes to stay on the path. After all, cats are almost like dogs they need ways to have fun. So walking your cat is one of many solutions to making it happier, healthier, and overall a better cat.

The pig who found his way home thanks to a bag of Doritos.

How do you lure a pig the size of a horse back to where it belongs? By using a bag of Poppin' Jalapeno Doritos, obviously. That's precisely what Deputies Shelly Ponce and Ashleigh Berg of the Highland Sheriff's Station in San Bernardino County, California, ended up doing in October after receiving a call about a local pig on the loose. Luckily, the pet pig was safely returned home, but there's still no word on the status of those Doritos.

OK, take a look at this mugshot! Does anyone remember this viral sensation from 2018?

He is known as "The Fluffy Puppy" who escaped custody! When a four-month-old chow-chow puppy named Bungle was taken into police custody back in November 2018 for biting an officer, the internet came to the fluffy dog's defense almost instantly. Unsurprisingly, the animal was let go after just five days in police custody, and Bungle remains the fluffiest and cutest criminal of 2018 (if not of all time).

Being Prepared: How to make an pack

Being prepared is a necessity, and should always have a back-up plan in case something doesn’t go as planned. , , , , and many other things can cause you to lose everything. But you need to have an emergency kit for not only you but for your pet as well.

Here are some items to include in your pet emergency kit.

The first thing you will need for sure is food and water. For the food use a small bag of your pet’s favorite food and invest in portable food and water bowls. You can even buy wet food is you desire.

Have back up water bottles filled with faucet water or purified water whatever you think is best.

Another necessity is a first aid kit. First aid kits are not only useful for humans but they also can be very useful for dogs. They can heal things that happened in a natural disaster or they can just be there for extra protection.

Another thing to pack is blankets or a bed for your furry companion to sleep on. If your is crate trained you may want to invest in a portable crate.

You may even want to invest in a pet carrier to put all of the items inside. If you do this I would purchase water pouches instead of water bottle since pet carriers are smaller than everyday backpacks.

Another must is a back-up pet id. If your dog gets lost it would be useful to have a backup pet id in your emergency kit to put on your pet if you lose yours during a natural disaster.

Another thing you will need is a back-up pair of your pet’s collar and leash. This is a great idea to keep you and your pet together because in the pressure of the moment your pet may run away.

You should also get some pet waste bags in case your dog/pet has to go to the bathroom you still have to be courteous. I would also recommend getting a pack of antibacterial wipes and gloves.

To finish off your emergency kit add some treats and toys to calm your pet down. After all, it is just as stressed as you are. If you include all of this in your pack you will always be prepared!
