Littermate syndrome can occur when two puppies adopted from the same litter grow up together in the same home. In some cases, these sibling puppies will form such a deep bond with each other that they fail to properly socialize with people and other dogs.

Just as much as you are interviewing a potential pet sitter, they are interviewing you as well. You always want to make sure to thoroughly vet your pet sitter and make sure they will be a good fit for your pet and for you. Each pet sitter and pet sitting company probably operates a bit differently from each other, as there is no right way to run a pet sitting company, but there are some basics that should be in place when selecting a pet sitter.

We will be talking about why our cats like to hang out and sleep in high places. We all know cats can be fussy creatures and this attitude extends to their sleeping habits as well. Many owners have gone out and bought plush, expensive beds only for their pampered cats to refuse to sleep on them. Are they just being fussy or is there an ulterior motive for this behavior?

French bulldogs are one of a kind with their large bat ears and even-keel disposition, it is no wonder they are now the most popular dog breed in the US. The Frenchie is playful, alert, adaptable and is irresistibly adorable. The French bulldog resembles a small bulldog with the exception of the breed trademark - their tall, large, erect ears, lovingly called bat ears. They have a large, square head, with heavy wrinkles leading to a short nose. They are known for their compact, muscular bodies underneath a smooth coat. Frenchies are dogs of only a few words, as they are not known to bark very much, but they do make great watch dogs as they are always alert. French bulldogs are known to be great in many family situations as well as with companion animals as they are easy going and usually do not need much exercise. This breed is very popular in cities as they are good apartment dogs as well.

Warning: Your bucket list is about to get a whole lot longer.

When deciding when to spay or neuter your dog there are many things you need to take into account, such as the size, breed, and your individual dog. A breeder or your veterinarian can be a great sound board when deciding when the best time to spay/neuter would be for your pet.
Show Notes: https://www.thepetladyltd.com/episode-39-when-should-you-spayneuter-your-dog
As responsible pet owners, we need to make sure we help to curb the population of pets in shelters and stray pets and the best way we are able to do this is to spay and neuter. Helping to slow the population of pets that end up in shelters or on the street, also help to decrease euthanizations.

It’s normal for puppies and dogs to chew on objects as they explore the world. Chewing accomplishes a number of things for a dog. For young dogs, it’s a way to relieve pain that might be caused by incoming teeth. For older dogs, it’s nature’s way of keeping jaws strong and teeth clean. Chewing also combats boredom and can relieve mild anxiety or frustration.

Pocket pets are what people call small domestic animals such as gerbils, hamsters, ferrets and rabbits. Many people opt to adopt a pocket pet as opposed to a dog or cat because they are easier to take care of, and they don't require as much attention as their canine and feline counterparts. Whether you live in a small space and cannot have a large animal, you’re gone all the time and cannot properly care for a more active animal or whether you just want a pet that is low maintenance and relaxed, pocket pets make great companions for the non-dog and non-cat people.
