Do you think it’s possible I could get a job at a pet care center? I’m 17 and am home schooled?

December 172009

and since I’m home schooled, I am available any day of the week and would work open ’til close. The school program I’m enrolled at allows me to do my work whenever I want. I have had no job experience but I would work hard and want to be a vet when I graduate high school, which I graduate early in December. Could I have a chance at this job?
It’s a dog kennel and a vet.

of course… and if you have trouble finding one, start by volunteering at an animal shelter, SPCA, or humane society. good luck

What do people do with their dogs when they are at work all day & have no doggy door?

December 122009

Doggie day care? Pet sitter? Come home to let the dog out?

All of the above.

Monday, Wednesday, Friday: Doggy Daycare

Tuesday/Thursday: Either I come home at lunch, or have a dog walker come by mid-day and take them for a walk.

Also, an adult dog should be able to ‘hold it’ comfortably for about 8 hours. So plenty of people leave their adult dogs home while they work with no ‘extra’ provisions and that can be fine for many dogs. I can’t always guarantee I’m home within 8 hours, so I make provisions for that.

I’m opening a day care combined with a Carnivores of Africa petting zoo, will you be using our services?

December 72009


Yes. I know a few kids I would like to bring. Can teens come too?

Pet care tips concerning Bearded Dragons?

December 52009

I was thinking about buying a B-dragon sometime in the next couple of weeks.
I’ve researched the animal a lot on random internet websites, but I still feel like I don’t know enough?
What can you tell me about your pet, or previous pet, B-dragon – care tips, facts, etc?

P.S. How many insects ( crickets, meal-worms, etc. ) should an adult eat in one day?

You’re supposed to feed them as many as they will eat in like a 5 minute time frame, maybe longer.

Make sure you have a good heat lamp that also provides UB rays and a sprayer to mist him.
As bearded dragons mature they will eat less insects and more veggies. No iceberg, or avocado.

Make sure to also dust his insects with a vitamin supplement powder.

how long could a dog stay at a day care?

December 22009

you know how there’s an overnight stays and things like that? what if the whole family was going on vacation, for, lets say, 3 weeks and cant bring the dog along. would it be reasonable to leave it at a doggie day care (where overnight stays are allowed) for three weeks? (expecially when there’s no neighbor or friends with pet friendly homes to take care of the dog)

Of course. Make sure you do your research and find a kennel where the dog will be treated well, allowed to exercise and get outside. It will be very expensive to board a dog for 3 weeks though. Somewhere around $30 per night.

doggy day care?

November 302009

how many people who work 5hrs plus per day, who own active pets and would apprieciate a "doggy day care" type establishment to take care of their pets through business hrs? oz only. its just that i am regularly noticing people getting bagged out for owning a dog but working most days. hellllo, these are dogs, not children. Because i work gives me the money to adopt the animal in the first place, desex it, feed, worm and vacc, chip it. Buy it toys and meaty bones to keep it occupied while im earning the money to house it (it would be cheaper to backyard breed, cos then i could quit my job!!! HELLO) , anywhoo, im hoping my hours will increase so i can get a raise and adopt, desex another one. when i decide to have children i will limit my wrk hours to suit my human family, if my pet cant handle it til then, he can go back to the pound.
this is for sophylakes, your dogs have adjusted to your routine perfectly it sounds like. That was my point. To the people who think us dog owners MUST dedicate ALL our time to our pets, even to the point of not having jobs!! that opinion is a tad over ott. as for de-sexing, let me say the word again for you DE-SEX. Again, i refer to the fact that our furry friends are not human, that is why its called, DE-SEXING. although, the reason for this operation, whether humans or animals is the same. how many DE-SEXED dogs have you seen making love just for the heck of it??
kim from sydney, thnx for the support. im in vic, but im sure if u chk ur local listing u will find someone, or run an add in ur paper. i love dogs, enough to respect them as the animals that they are, and not forcing them to ‘humanise’

hi there Kim here just curious where in OZ are you and how much the services are etc… 4 a extra sm Pom, wormed, vac, papers etc

added I also hate desexing I totally disagree with it to all who hate it I applause you

pet care for a firebelly frog,how often do you change his water?

November 272009

if the frog is the only one in the tank do yuo still have to change its water every couple of days.Any good tips on frog care

It really depends on how large the tank is. If it’s rather small changing it once or twice a week would be recommended. If it is larger, it might only be necessary to change it every two weeks.
