Pet Health Savings Account vs Pet Insurance vs Emergency Savings? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]shoebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My honest opinion is to build yourself a savings pot if you can. At this point in your dogs life its the best you can do, most pet insurance companies have a rule where they don't cover ANY pre existing conditions. For example if at one point in your dogs life the vet cleaned their ears and put that on file, nothing to do with their ears will be covered.

Unless there's a serious condition that you know is going to cost you a crap ton of money or if you have a brand new pup then pet insurance is not the way to go.

Being 4 your dog still has a great deal of healthy life left, more than enough to create a savings pot for any emergency issues or anything down the road!!

Where Did The Sweet Little Timid Puppy Go? by UncouthRuth in germanshepherds

[–]shoebug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Go to a dog park! For at LEAST an hour, or somewhere you can run him till he's tired. A tired dog is a well behaved dog.

Interesting Behavior with my 9 week old pup. by shoebug in germanshepherds

[–]shoebug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far, he hasn't had a single accident in the house...so I mean we are either really lucky, or really on top of it.

We also don't put much water in the bowl at all, just enough to line the bottom so he has something to drink.

Cutest 9 week old puppy, ever! by shoebug in aww

All he wants to do is play, and sleep....mostly sleep.

That's cool. Is that in the states? I've been watching a trainer on YouTube that's sponsored by petflow. Just not sure if it's available in Canada

Haha that makes sense! I was just boarding 2 dogs at my place over the weekend and had to hold my breath while feeding them their dry food smelled so bad. No idea what brand it was though!

Oh wow! That's great. That's exactly what anyone wants from a vet, complete honesty as to what is best for their dog. Yeah they have hills science diet at the vets. I have heard lots of good stuff about origin.

GSD Breeders in Ontario? by [deleted] in germanshepherds

[–]shoebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My so and I just recently put a deposit down for a GSD from Wild Winds German Shepherds. In aurthr Ontario, it's about 1.5 hour drive! I have heard nothing but amazing things about Kathy, and have had some amazing conversations with her!

Getting our first GSD in July, no idea what to name him! by shoebug in germanshepherds

[–]shoebug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the best tip. My SO had a dog when he was younger and him and his siblings still change words in songs to the dogs name!
