Devoted pet owner and now, devoted pet editor, Judi worked in traditional offices, keeping the books and the day-to-day operations organized. Taking her dog to work every day for over a decade never seemed odd. Neither did having an office cat. She knows what it's like to train a new puppy and she's experienced the heartache of losing beloved companions. Retired, she currently lives with her spoiled dog and four chickens (who are, interestingly enough, also spoiled).

The Importance of Looking After Your Pet’s Muscles and Joints

Shockingly, one out of every seven dogs is badly affected by arthritis. The painful condition affects the joints and surrounding cartilage and can arise in a dog’s, hips, elbows, shoulders and spine. Just like the joints in a human body, dogs rely heavily on them to freely move their limbs. Without movable joints animals and humans would be inflexible and find ordinary movements such as walking, running, sitting and jumping almost impossible to do.

With this in mind it’s vital for any caring owner to understand the importance of looking after the joints of their pet as if it were their own body.

Bags On Board

The politically correct action I would like to talk about is picking up your dog’s poop. Stinky subject, I know, but one that should really be addressed. City dwellers, in particular, are quite accustomed to the task required of responsible dog owners. Poop patrol isn’t fun, but as dog owners we must do our part to prevent the pollution of popular paths, keep children and adults from stepping in the squishy stuff, and protect the environment.
