Puppy In Training Blog Carnival #5
Posted by Colby
Welcome back to another episode of the Puppy In Training Blog Carnival. We made a few changes this week in hopes of creating more interaction and community in this edition of the blog carnival.
Two out of our four articles cover dog costs and how to save money when owning a dog. I must say this definitely reflects the current economy and how each and everyone of us is looking for different ways to save money.
Puppy In Training Blog Carnival #5
Our first article tackles the problem of how to handle problems when a dog co-exists with a child. The Baby-Log.com blog covers some important points in the article Kids and pets need to learn mutual respect. The first rule mentioned in the article is probably one of the most important: Play under supervision only. – If I can’t watch the kid and the dog every single second, they are not allowed to play. Although I don’t have children my guide dog puppy has the same rule. He’s only allowed to play with my other two dogs under supervision only. Derby my guide dog puppy can often times get out of control and he must learn appropriate play with other dogs.
All of us here at Puppy In Training do our best to try and help out with dog adoptions and fostering. Our second article from the Money Theory blog goes over the story of adopting two wonderful dogs. If you’re interested in adopting a dog and would like to save a little money then check out our second article: Adopt a pet from your local shelter, and save money! We took that route and adopted Linus our Australian Shepherd mix from the shelter and we haven’t regretted that decision one bit!
Our third article from the Condo Blues blog tackles an issue I haven’t encountered just yet and that is trying to answer the question: Have You Ever Put An Active Dog On Complete Bed Rest? It’s Not Easy… I’ve always wondered how to put dogs on bed rest. My friends American Staffordshire Terrier had two knee operations and had to be on bed rest. I had another friend who’s Yellow Labrador Retriever was on bed rest for elbow dysplasia. The list goes on and on and I’m pretty certain that my turn will come too. This article tells you about Blitzkrieg the little Pekingese and how he was put on bed rest.
Our final article from the Lazy Man and Money covers a very important question with our current economy: How Much Does A Dog Cost? If you’re looking to get a dog this is a very important question to ask yourself because one of the top ten reasons dogs end up in shelters is that the cost of keeping the dog is two high for the owner. This is a great article as the “Lazy Man” breaks down the initial expenses and recurring expenses a person will have when that person becomes a dog owner. A quick not on this article: there are a ton of great comments after the article that raise some great points and offer additional information on how much a dog costs.
