Being a responsible pet owner goes beyond variously throwing your pet a treat and buying adorable toys – although your pets highly encourage these! Things like vet trips, bath time, and saying the word ‘no’ are crucial when owning a pet. To make it easy, we’ve identified four key actions you can take to be the best pet owner you can be.
Commit

Identify
Love
Commit:
Owning a pet is a lifelong commitment and not something to be rushed into. If you thought a fish was difficult, wait till you bring your dog or cat home. It’ll change your life – for the better of course. You need to be ready to commit to the relationship for the life of your pet. This includes providing exercise, mental stimulation, proper training and socialization. Essentially, you need to be ready to commit your time to owning a pet. Although this may seem overwhelming, it is astounding how quickly a daily walk and a training class become a part of your daily routine.
Invest:
Pet ownership isn’t just a time commitment but also a financial commitment. Your pet will need food, water, a collar, proper identification, vet visits and preventative health care. It’s important that you account for all of these routine expenses and the unplanned potential emergencies like your pet meet the neighborhood groundhog.
Identify:
Make sure your pet is properly identifiable with ID tags, microchips or a personalized collar. Keep your contact information up-to-date with new phone numbers or address changes.
Love:
Here’s the fun part. Your pet is going to want and need love. They are going to want to cuddle, play, and always be by your side. Have food? They are in your face. Accidentally step on a toy? Careful, their frantic running may take you out. Feeling sad? Those snuggles will make everything better. They will give you unconditional love. In return they expect commitment and love in the form of toys, treats or just hugs and snuggles. This is the most rewarding part of being a responsible dog owner. Enjoy every minute of it!
