Adopting a dog can be a wonderful experience. You get a new family member to love and care for, and a previously unwanted dog gets a new, forever home where he or she can feel safe and protected. Nothing gives you unconditional love like a dog. Whether you’ve had dogs in your home before or this is your first one, you want to make sure you welcome your newly adopted dog home the right way, so everyone can get started on the right foot (or paw). Here are some great ways to make sure your dog feels comfortable.
Moving with a pet can be stressful for you, and for your four-legged friend. There are plenty of things you can do, though, that will make things a little bit easier for your pet. That’s true whether you’re moving down the street or across the country. If you choose a place like Maine and you’re coming from a warm climate, you’ll also have to get your pet used to the different weather. It’s often best to plan your move when the weather is mild, but you may not always have that choice.
