Do you have a will for your dog?

This week has been one of those eye opening weeks for my mommy and me.  We had one of our Leash Your Fitness family members die VERY unexpectedly in a freak accident and then my aunt was in a car accident–all in the same day!  It made mommy think–what would happen to me if she died?  There are so many questions to answer and we wanted you to think about this too as NOBODY can say what is going to happen to us each day.  You may think that your sibling or friend would take care of your dog but do they know all about your dog?  These are a few things that are important:

1/ Exercise routine:  you wouldn’t want to give a dog who is used to exercising a lot to a couch potato

2/ Food intake and types of food that your dog tolerates and likes

3/ Medicine:  flea treatment, heartworm, or any special medications your dog is on

4/ Vet, boarding and grooming information

5/ Allergies, injuries and any special “quirks” your dog has.  Example: likes to chase bunnies, doesn’t like men, etc…..

Many people have a trust made up for their pet(s) that include financing for future vet bills and “cost of living” expenses.  This can be done through an attorney or there are services that you can pay for that are strictly for pets.  One that I found is Its My Pets Life.  My mommy has everything written out and she keeps it with her other important documents in her safe.  It includes financing for me and all of the “stuff” that will be destroyed if I don’t get the proper exercise.  I think it may take a “team” to take care of  me.  I am very spoiled because I get to go to our Leash Your Fitness classes and be in the park while mommy is training every day.

So PLEASE TAKE ACTION! Don’t put this off another day!

You do not want your beloved pet to end up at the pound.

And don’t forget to leave extra money for treats!

PLease don't leave me all alone
