Fauria doesn\u2019t blame the puppy for his injury, a sprained ankle, he just hopes to get better soon so he can play for the Lions again. In the meantime, he is much more careful when he needs to take Lil\u2019 Rufio potty.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\" href=\"https:\/\/fetchpetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Screen-2BShot-2B2014-10-02-2Bat-2B3.30.11-2BPM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fetchpetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Screen-2BShot-2B2014-10-02-2Bat-2B3.30.11-2BPM.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"312\" height=\"400\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Your Pet Might Be Peeved!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you are going to pet another dog, you should be prepared with an extra treat for your own. A study by psychology professor Christine Harris and her former student, Caroline Prouvost, seems to show that dogs get jealous and act out with attention seeking behavior when their owners pet another dog. Harris said that the dog not only acts jealous, he actively tries to break up the connection.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\" href=\"https:\/\/fetchpetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DSC00345.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fetchpetcare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DSC00345.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"352\" height=\"400\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<strong>Keep That Cat! Litter Box Problems Do Have Solutions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the most given reasons for surrendering a cat or euthanizing it is that they are doing their litter box business anywhere but the litter box. Ilona Rodan, DVM shares that surrender is not the only option. Most cats have unresolved medical issues, are trying to communicate, or are stressed when they misbehave in the litter box department. Among the solutions, a visit to the vet is the first step to rule out medical problems. The next step is to reduce the cat\u2019s stress and to keep their current litter situation clean and accessible.
