Pets Round-up: Autumn leaves, new pups & passing away

Autumn is a busy time for pet owners.  The weather’s getting colder and of course there’s those fireworks to think of – now that bonfire night is over there’s still New Year’s Eve when they will come out again!  If your pet is anxious about fireworks, Blue Bear Wood has a useful post which might help.

My dog loves Autumn – all those leaves to chase and jump into, but I’m already thinking ahead to Christmas with these easy to make Peanut Butter Dog Biscuits which make a great gift.

My Mummy’s World is going to have a super busy time over autumn and winter, having just introduced two totally adorable new puppies into the home. And speaking of new pups, A Happy Health Mummy has some great advice on the most ethical ways to find your new puppy and avoid the awful puppy farm trade.

There’s some excellent advice here if you ever find yourself in the sad situation of having to re-home a pet because you become too ill to look after it, or perhaps you’re bereaved and inherit a pet after its owner has passed.

And finally a post which brought more than one tear to my eye, Going On an Adventure talks movingly about their final days with their beloved dog Thomas. Please join me in sending love and best wishes to Collette and her family at this difficult time.

If you have any pet related posts you’d like me to include next time, please tweet me @missielizzieb.  I’m particularly interested in other animals (dogs always seem to get the limelight!) and any Christmas related posts you have coming up.
