Silly Saturday -Picking Pampered Pets

This could be one of the reasons ( muddy walks carrying little bags containing… ) why people who bought puppies during Lockdown are now getting fed up with them. Ironically, while shelters fill up with unwanted dogs, people who want to keep their pampered ( and expensive ) pets are having them stolen, because of the increasing demand for dogs during lockdown. If the dog thieves could be persuaded to only steal unwanted dogs…

Dog thieves can sneak away with your tiny pup without anyone noticing.
If you own a pangolin he’s even more likely to be stolen, so keep him on a lead.
WHY NOT CHOOSE A PET THAT NOBODY WANTS TO STEAL?
WHY NOT CHOOSE A PET THAT NOBODY WANTS TO STEAL?
How about a pet you can take to the beach to guard your towel and clothes AND is too big to steal.
PLACID PETS LOVE TO COME ON A PICNIC WITH YOU
WITH PATIENCE YOUR PET CAN BE TRAINED TO DO ALL SORTS OF THINGS.
IF YOU ARE BUYING A NEW PET, MAKE SURE YOUR GARDEN IS BIG ENOUGH
…and be careful if you are buying a pet on the internet…
Descriptions are not always accurate and you may not get what you were expecting.
Dogs are still people’s favourite pets and they conveniently come in different sizes.

  1. My daughter has gone pet-crazy during lockdown. As if a cat wasn’t enough, she got a second cat, then a Rotweiler puppy, and now two hamsters! I have no idea what she intends to do with them when she has to go back to University, but they won’t be coming to live here with us and Ollie, that’s for sure. 🙂
    Best wishes, Pete.

  2. A fun post, Janet with a serious message! 😀 I’m laughing at your selection of bigger animals not to have as a pet! Understandably people have wanted more pets during this past year but yes, what happens to them afterwards. I think some pet shelters are almost full already!

  3. Hmn, yes, I have worried about the number of dogs being bought in lockdown. What about when people go back to work – we’re not all going to be home-working all the time!? The plaster dinosaur is the best – and lowest cost / maintenance – option, for sure.
