Furs everywhere, constantly dirty floors, how to teach a puppy not to use a floor as a toilette. Gosh, I guess I'm quite lucky with my dog 'cause I really don't have much problems with it.

Hardest part imo is the fact that you get so attached to them and their life span is only 8-15 years on average...

The most difficult part of being a pet parent is that , it is hard to see them in pain and you can't do anything about them. I had a bird. He was ill , so my brother took him to vet for the bumble foot. He gave medicines to him. I thought he was getting better but he died. I don't if it was bumble foot or the age because he 7-8 years and they live up to that age. It was difficult for all my family to let him go because he was a huge part of our family. He was cheerful , had a great bonding with us.

@jaskiran_kaur So sorry to hear that. I had a bird too. Mine was already sick when we found her and she died in that week. I was only six and I remember crying a lot.

If you love animals as I love them, then there is no difficulty in caring for them. It happens somehow by itself. No complications.

I used to travel a lot before - you know - So, must annoying part was explaining the routines again every sitter or friend who is taking care of my cats.

Oh God, where to start? I guess most difficult part is tracking health of my dog when I am super busy.

The hardest thing about caring for a pet is to stop humanizing it. We humans often try to find motives and reasons for animals' behavior, thinking they might chew something on purpose or spoil things to spite us. But we have to fight this thinking because the real reasons for behavior are usually related to an animal's internal needs. For example, a dog chews his shoes because he was home alone, bored, and didn't have his own toy. Animals need to have their own things like Hondenbadje and distinguish them from the owner's.

@pim_de_burger As a dog owner, I completely understand the challenges that come with pet care. One particular issue that can be quite challenging is ensuring that our canine friends stay cool and comfortable, especially during hot weather. That's where a koelmat hond comes in handy. These mats are specifically designed to provide a cooling solution for dogs, addressing their need for comfort in warm temperatures. One common difficulty is finding a cooling mat that meets the specific needs of our dogs. Different dogs have different sizes, so it's important to choose a mat that fits perfectly. Many dog cooling mats come in various sizes, allowing us to select the ideal fit for our furry companions.

I use Nature's Protection Superior Care White Fish food for my small breed dogs and it has made a difference! This food is made with high quality white fish and contains no harmful fillers or grains. It is also specifically formulated for small and mini breed adult dogs, so I know my dog is getting all the nutrients he needs. Do you like this food?
