PETCO Pets: Express Yourselves!

Wizard of Oz Pet CostumesI have always loved Halloween. It is the one time of year you can be anything you want, wear whatever you want and no one thinks you have completely lost your mind. Every year when I was growing up, my costume choice was calculated and well planned out. It was a reflection of my personality, style and what excited me most.

In thinking about what I pick as my Halloween costume I now have a 4-legged friend, my dog Sarge, to think about as well, which adds a whole other Continue reading »

Backyard Chickens: PETCO’s Giving You Something to Cluck About

Every now and hen I yearn for a new pet.  I have thoughts of purchasing an upscale coop, a couple nesting boxes, minor accessories…and some hens.  Wouldn’t it be fun to wake up to the soft crow of a feathered friend, scramble up some organic eggs, and fertilize the garden in a pesticide-free way?

Raising urban chickens is the newest and greatest talk of many common city slickers.  Just this past April, The Martha Stewart show had a one hour presentation on caring for backyard chickens.  Organic Gardening’s latest edition presents an eight page, center fold article (featuring a beautiful hen on the front cover).  The piece discusses the best Continue reading »

A Year and a Half of Love: Guide Dog Puppy Raising

Jennifer and Lowe

Could you take a puppy into your home when they are only 8 weeks old and give them back at 18 months old? That’s about a year and a half of puppy kisses and playing and bonding with an adorable four-legged friend.  When I look at my 50lb, 6 year old dog, Sarge, I still see a puppy. I still remember his little puppy growl when we played tug of war and holding his little body in my arms. I cannot imagine having to give him up after spending that time together, bonding with him and making him a part of my family.  

When I went for a visit to Guide Dogs of the Desert, I met an amazing woman, Jennifer Pinder, who raises puppies to become Guide Dogs. 

She adopts them at only 8weeks old, loves and cares for them and then about a year later Continue reading »
