Why Dog Cages Are Vital For Traveling

By Layla Smith

Pet travel cages allow you to easily and safely transport your pet almost anywhere. The type of cage you pick will depend on the type of pet you need to transport. There are a lot of kinds of cages to pick from, however. If designer cages are your cup of tea, you can pick one of those from the hundreds of assorted styles and designs available. With a little searching, you are sure to find the right one for you and your pet.

If you have a medium or large dog, you are going to want a large crate. You could require assistance with the crate if you have a larger animal. The crate needs to be a size that allows your dog to sit down up, turn around, and stand easily. You also need to make quite sure you can fit dishes for food and water in the crate.

If you are traveling with a small dog, you may be able to use either a travel bag that stays with you or a small crate. Many airlines permit this. The travel bag you pick may look like a handbag, a front sling, or even a backpack carrier; all of these styles and designs have places for the dog's head to come through.

It is generally required that cats be transported in a cat carrier. When traveling with a cat, these cages are the customary means of transporting them safely. Unlike dogs, cats will generally choose to remain laying down throughout their journey, so their carrier does not need to be as tall. There should be ample room for the cat to be comfortable in the carrier; however, it only has to have enough space for your cat to lie down without the top of the carrier touching his head.

Once you have made the decision as to which travel cage is best suited to the needs of you and your pet, you will be ready for your trip. With so a lot of options, there is no longer any reason for Fido or Fluffy to stay house while you take pleasure in traveling the world! With the protection and safety provided by your pet travel cage, you and your pet can now take pleasure in many brand new trips together.

A pleasurable part of pet ownership is being able to care for them and purchase fun things for them. When you will be transporting your pet, a travel cage will ensure their contentment. Whether you are going on vacation for a couple of weeks or shopping in town, it will be a real pleasure to have your pet go with you. I mean they are an extension of the family - Are they not? I know mine thinks he is! - 32401

Enter Mr Digby

By Barbara Soanes

Mr. Digby is an Old English Sheepdog who was born in New Zealand and lives in Hawaii. He is the head of the household so not much gets done unless the Digger Boo is taking part. He is now four years old and has learned numerous skills of his own training.

First task of the day is to deliver the newspaper to Dad in the bed. The Mom usually drives him to the bottom of their Road to get the paper, then, when they get back and out of the car, Digs takes the rolled up paper in his mouth and races up the stairs. Getting there depends on if he gets distracted along the way. A pair of sport shoes is usually good for a distraction. He does not however chew or rip up the paper being a devotee of the written word. Well he must be as he has never so much as chewed on a book or magazine. If it doesn't make to the bedside, it will be somewhere on the stairs waiting to be retrieved by whomever.

Then off to the kitchen to help with taking out the garbage. He knocks down the waste bin and worries at the liner until it comes free. This done, he then proceeds to drag it to the garage for transport to the transfer station. The luck here is if he manages to grab the top of the plastic bag where in most of the garbage remains in the bag till it gets to the garage. The not so lucky help is if he gets the plastic liner any where else as this results in a trail of refuse from the kitchen through three rooms to the garage. This is all done at neck breaking speed as the chores he accomplishes each day are numerous.

After a fast lap up of water from his bowl, he is then away to the bedroom to assist make the bed. This entails his interpretation of fluffing the pillows by tossing them high in the air. Where they land is not all important as he can bound all over them to be sure not one dust particle remains, some of the times feathers too. Then it is off to the wash with Dad's underwear and socks. Sometimes they make it and sometimes not. There has to be a private cache someplace in the house and to be honest we have recovered one under a sofa in the television room and then another in his toy basket, but there is still a lot missing. Folding up sheets is a particular accomplishment as first a nest must be made by snapping up any section of sheet and racing in little circles until a nice tight wad has been accomplished.

Whew, he is so busy. But wait, the Mom and Dad are having breakfast so it's off at a run for some scrambled egg, maybe. Just look cute with your head on one side and that's a winner. Oh well, time for a quick nap before he helps with a gardening project, but that's for next time. - 32401
