can we help you
keep your pet?
Taking care of an animal is not an easy thing!!

Your pets have to be fed, watered, played with and brushed. There are lots of things you can do to help your parents take care of your pets.

 

 

I bet your pet gets pretty lonely sometimes, you could help out by petting or talking or playing with your pet, they make GREAT friends.

Just like people pets need food and water; it's always good to make sure your pet has plenty.

No one likes to be hungry, right? Remember your pets can't take care of themselves, they need your help!!!

(thank you Jenni, Kelley and Whitney)

 

    

Teaching a child not to step on a caterpillar is as valuable to the child as it is to the caterpillar."   Bradley Miller 

"While kids are teaching dogs to fetch and other tricks worth
knowing,
dogs are teaching
kids to care, to give a lot of
love, and share...
Kids and dogs!
They've got a good thing going!"
