Hello, here I am.
Like many of you, I have never blogged before. Nor did I ever especially want to. Yes, I have owned wonderful dogs and cats, am a true animal lover, and contribute to many of the good animal causes around. But I never considered myself a writer until now.
That's because now I have something to talk about.
A lot has changed in the world of pets. Where once they were loved as pets and were well cared for, they were still considered, to some degree, lesser members of the family. Oh, not they we didn't love them, feed them well, give them scraps from the table now and then as a special treat, take them to the vet when they were sick and bury them properly when they passed away, but still...they were just animals.
Not any more.....
Today's household pets are not only members of the family, they are "furry family members," sometimes even, the most popular member of the family. Whether considered an extended family member of a large family of kids, "one" of the kids, or "substitute kids" for "empty nesters," today's pets rule the roost.
The term "pampered pooch" has never been more applicable. From treats to trendy apparel, from sunglasses to sundresses, from bandannas to ribbons, today's furry family members have never had it so good. And what about all the new organic foods, treats and grooming products that are available today?
Not to forget trendy dog strollers and dog carriers, which, after all, are the subject of this blog. Dog carriers are definitely a hot product area in the world of pet products and show no signs of slowing down.
What I would like to do is to start a discussion of dog carriers to help keep you abreast of the selections that are available and those that are emerging.
Some of these can be found on my new website, http://www.puppycratesplus.com. Some cannot, in which case I'll tell you where you can find them. As a website owner, I also need your input on the dog carriers you have purchased or are looking for. You will be a vital partner in making this blog work.
Next post I'll discuss some of the trends in dog carriers and where you can find them. Here's one of the trendy dog carriers that we'll talk about on my next post: PetSak Tote, Blue Dot, by PuchiBag.
Please feel free to add your comments or suggestions.
Well, here goes....
