The Pet Life: Quotes About Pets!

I’m a huge animal person. We have four dogs, (Cash, Rosie, Max, and Luna) two cats, (Dak and Zeke) and two rabbits(Lola and Cuddles). If it was up to me, I would have tons more than that, but my husband put a limit on me. I couldn’t imagine life without them. Don’t get me wrong, the fur EVERYWHERE is annoying, the hole in the wall is a nice touch to the laundry room, and Max’s idea to make a doggie door in the wooden fence has taken some time to get used to. But, nothing is better than the love waiting at the door for me after a long day of work. Here are a few of my favorite quotes about pets.  

Quinn and Luna!

Until one has loved an animal a part of one’s soul remains unawakened. -Anatole France

A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than you love yourself. -Josh Billings

Such short little lives our pets have to spend with us, and they spend most of it waiting for us to come home each day. It is amazing how much love and laughter they bring into our lives and even how much closer we become with each other because of them. -John Grogan

 

Lola and Cuddles!

The difference between friends and pets is that friends we allow into our company, pets we allow into our solitude. – Robert Brault

Zeke and Dak!

Furbaby Blues!

I love our dogs. They’re treasured members of our family. But, they can be huge jerks sometimes. I don’t know why I was shocked to come home last week to the third dog bed shredded in two months. After a long day at school I just wanted to come home, finish lesson plans, grade a few papers, and hang out in my pajamas. The last thing I had on my mind was picking up fluff out of every crevice of the house.

While I was tired of cleaning, I didn’t want them to have to sleep on the hard floor either. After research and word of mouth, we decided to try Coolaroo Elevated Bed.  So far we’ve been so impressed! We purchased the large bed so they could share. It was super easy to assemble. It only took about 5 minutes to put together, and is much sturdier than I expected.  Our red heeler, Rosie, jumped right on without a second thought. Cash, our 9 year old bugg, was a bit more apprehensive at first. He had to think about about it and consider all his options. However, after he finally decided to give it a try. He didn’t have any trouble getting up, it’s now his new favorite spot.

I plan on buying another one for the back porch during the summer months when they spend more time outside.

 

But, the best part is it’s still in one piece!
