All for the love of a Pet

Blogging Guidelines

We love to have Member Blogs; however, if you wish to advertise your site or items that you market, we ask that you post the blog for viewing by "Friends only". We are FOREMOST a pet lovers site, and not a site dedicated to marketing. As a pet lovers site, a similar rule also applies for graphic postings on animal abuse. Please see the Site Guidelines if you have additional questions about this policy. This ensures that the blog is posted on your page. Members who do not follow these rules will find the blog deleted, and repeat offenders will ultimately be banned from the site. Thank you for your understanding.

THANK YOU to our Weekly Bloggers:

We have a few folks that write weekly blogs for the site and these blogs are featured on specific days. THANK YOU to:

Marie for her Monday Weekly
Wendy for her WWC Wednesday Weekly
Shari and Bodie for their Friday Weekly Wag

If you would like to be a weekly blogger for Pet Lovers Paradise, please let me know. We would love to have you! Just get in touch with me.

Dog Training Secrets - Four Things Every Dog Owner Should Know

No matter where I go, when people see my well-mannered dogs, they want to know my dog training secrets. I'm always happy to share with anyone who wants to know and I hope these tips on communicating with your dog are helpful to you. As you must know by now, communicating with your dog is the foundational element of all training. Your dog has to be able to understand exactly what you're saying so he'll know which behaviors are acceptable and which are not. To help your dog get there, you're goin… Continue

Pet Fashion Week

This is a fun article that hopefully you all will enjoy: August 29, 2009 Pet Fashion Week Sizzles with Hot New Trends (ZT Pet News Photo by Brian Stillman) NEW YORK -- Jane Given's philosophy is simple: "If your pet looks good, you look good." As a designer with Scarlett Dream Coats, a company that makes clothing for dogs, she's certainly in a position to know. "Our pets are like our children," she explained, "and when children are dressed well, it reflects well on the parents." On a hot, m… Continue

Some ask me why I opted to develop www.petloversparadise.net, and it's kind of a funny story. Not long ago, the organization that employs me decided to have many of its' employees work from home. I am a social person, and missed the interaction with people every day. I opted to join MySpace to keep in touch with family and friends, but found that no one other than these specific folks wanted to talk to a grown woman. So... I changed my page to OzSee ~ my wonderful miniature schnauzer! I had "fri… Continue

FCE - Fibrocartilaginous Embolism and Schnauzers

I try to share this story a couple of times throughout the year. I hope it makes a difference for someone. My little Schnauzer suffered an embolism just about three years ago, and this caused him to be paralyzed in all but one limb. Through a lot of hard work and just sheer luck, I am grateful to say that he is mostly recovered, but his ailment is fairly common in schnauzers and so I like to pass on the info. OzSee was jumping up to bed one minute, and paralyzed the next. It was the most fright… Continue

Do People Really Begin to Look Like Their Pets?

Well, after much debate and scientific study, the answer is likely "yes". At least that's the story according to research from the University of California by Nicholas Christenfeld and Michael Roy when it comes to purebreds. The full study, Do Dogs Resemble Their Owners?, appears in the journal Psychological Science. So why is this important to you? Well, if you're a pet lover like me, it might explain a lot. As you know, I have a miniature schnauzer and, personally, I have eyebrows that… Continue

The Extra Mile

It's the holidays, and that always brings out the sap in me. We all know that I am sappy anyway, but, at the holidays, it gets worse. You have been warned. LOL During the holidays, my husband tells me that it seems that the best in folks always comes out. I'd love to hear what that "best" is for you. Do you and your family volunteer at a soup kitchen, do you bake things for loved ones, what do you do that causes you to go that extra mile specifically at the holidays. I would love to hear the go… Continue
