Caring and providing for a pet are very important
commitments. Important areas to consider for your pet include diet,
health, training, and safety.
Choosing a proper diet for your pet is extremely important. A great
deal of research is done by pet food companies to assure the production
of an optimally balanced diet for your pet. We welcome your questions
about which diet would be the most appropriate for your pet.
Health:
Helping to keep your pet healthy is one of the best things you
can do for your best friend. Proper animal health begins with
a partnership between you, your pet, and your veterinarian. You
know your pets better than anyone, and know when they are not feeling
or acting well. If you notice anything out of character for your
pet, this should be brought to the attention of your veterinarian.
Training:
This is often times a difficult area for pet owners. Not all
pets can be trained to open doors and fetch things from
the refrigerator,
but most pets should be trained in basic obedience. This includes
commands such as sit, stay, and come, and are best learned
through positive re-enforcement.
Safety: It is important for your
pets to be confined or on a leash at all times when outdoors.
Even the best trained animals
can get
distracted and run into the street at the blink of an eye.
Your
pets should also have a collar on with identification at
all times.
