Read through our Disaster Planning for you and your pets
and make plans if ever you need to evacuate. Go
over these plans once a year with your family.
Better to be safe and knowledgeable than in a crisis,
panicked and have no plan.
-
Remember that if you need to evacuate,
ALWAYS take all pets with you.
-
Having your dog go with you in your car
is fun but it can be deadly. Even if you leave the
windows down a little the inside of your car can heat up
FAST. Good rule of thumb is that if the
temperature outside is 60 degrees or more, leave your
pet home. It could save their life.

Leaving your pet in the car -
Many pet
owners love to bring their pets with them on a car ride,
whether they are going to the store or traveling.
However, when the weather is wonderful and the temperature
starts to go up, it can be VERY DANGEROUS for your pets.
If the temperature is around 70 degrees, even leaving your
car windows open about 2 inches, will increase your car's
temperature to over 100 degrees in a VERY short time.
Since our pets cool their body temperature mainly by
panting, when the air temperature they are breathing in is
very high, they are unable to cool. Their internal
body temperature increases and if they can not cool down,
your pets will slowly die. My rule is if, the outside
temperature is over 60 degrees, do not leave your pets in a
car. To learn more go to

BULLETIN BOARD
Professional Pet Sitting Etc. is now a
BARTERING BUSINESS
If you have a skill needed then we may barter our pet
cares services, advertising on our website, products,
behavior consulting, etc. Call or e-mail what you would
like to barter - it could be: landscaping, handyman,
electrician, accounting, house cleaning, massage,
seamstress, etc......you can also offer products, like
fresh vegetables, etc.), I can't promise but it never
hurts to ask. We will also be adding a bartering
section to our business page soon. Bartering is a great
way to help each other not only in this economy but at
anytime. How does bartering work? Well, it would be
the same if someone was paying for your services, so if
there are forms that need to be filled out, that would
still be done but instead of exchanging money, you would
be exchanging services or products that would be worked
out between the two parties ahead of any thing being
done. Both parties must be in agreement and I would
suggest that everything be on paper so there is no
misunderstandings. If for whatever reason, one party
cannot hold up their end, then a plan B should be
written in the agreement that payment will be rendered.

***WANTED***
A place to hold NH Pet
Expo
We are currently looking for a place to hold the NH Pet
Expo. We would preferably like a place in the
Nashua, NH area. It must be large enough, about
10,000 square feet or more and available for 1 - 2 days
per year to hold the event in the late spring
(May/June). This could be an event place, warehouse,
unused building in safe, good condition. Since this is
an animal event, animals must be allowed in/out of this
area, and since it will benefit animals in need, not too costly.
The event is held inside and out, no rain date. We have
held this event at the Center of NH, with no animal
problems (of course everyone picks up after all pets). If you
know of a place or you want to help us with a place you
own, please call our office. |
