I’m planning a pet care business. I’ll go to peoples homes and care for their cat/dog/bird/etc when they are away. I’ll walk, feed, water and play with their pets.
I’ll even extend care to farm animals, as I live in the country and lots of people have a horse or two, even a cow or goat as pets.
I could really use some more name ideas, and perhaps tag lines.
I have a pet snake, and I’ve always been able to hold him easily and he never strikes out or bites at people so he’s really tame. Anyways lately I’ve been having more fun playing with him, and wrapping him around my neck, but I was wondering if there were any tips on training them.
I’m looking for some pet insurance that will cover things like kennel cough. I have 3 dogs and 2 have been exposed to it once already and may be exposed to it again because we adopted another puppy from the shelter. We already lost one puppy from it so we are looking for some insurance we can afford.

There is the situation with many of us dog owners that ours is the greatest dog that ever lived and would certainly never do anything wrong. Barking all night an keeping the neighbors awake is something that some other dog might do, but not our sweet pooch. Yet, there are times when our dog starts barking and we have no idea why, since there are no monsters in the yard. Unless we go outside to see what the problem is the barking will continue all night. Sounds like it is time to consider one of the Bark Collars.
One of the remedies for this is to simply bring the dog inside the house with the humans. This only works if you have trained your dog to not bark after you tell it to stop. Otherwise, you now have all that barking noise in the house with you and although the neighbors might be very happy, you are not.
Dogs bark for a list of reasons other than imagined monsters, and might not be anything more than being hungry. Make sure the dog is fed, and check the water dish. You dog just might be thirsty and trying to tell you they need water, now! If this is not the reason, then consider when was the last time your dog had a good long run in the park. Dogs have different energy levels and sometimes all they need is to burn off that excess.
Having done your homework and making sure your dog has plenty of food, water and exercise, and all else has failed, there are training aids available which are designed to help in solving this problem.
The type of bark collar most people think of first is the static electric shock anti bark collar. Please notice the word static, this means it is the same kind of shock that walking across a carpet will produce when you touch someone or a light switch. It is not deadly, just stings. Keep in mind when shopping for these that these devices are now being regulated world wide and not all manufacturers meet those standards.
Another type of bark collar is the sonic anti bark which, of course, makes use of sound waves to distract your dog from barking. Some of these units are actually out of the range of our human hearing, but others might only claim something like being mostly out of the range. Find out before you purchase.
Here is an interesting idea in bark control called the citronella spray collar. This one sprays citronella when the dog barks and if you like the smell of citronella it might be the one you would rather use.
What you need to keep in mind is that none of these products are recommended for constant use. There are the issues of having to recharge them or replace the batteries, not to mention that they can become damaged if left unattended while you are away at work. Keeping this in mind your canine vocal problems might be remedied by the use of one of the models of bark collars.
