Owning a dog requires time, effort and financial competence. Dogs need daily exercise, training, consistent veterinary care and grooming. Constantly strive for that extra training to train your dog in obedience and discipline, said Aditya Sakhare, CEO and Founder - Pets & Me.
Food and environmental 'allergies' in pets and dogs are one of the biggest problems parents face. Common symptoms include itching, scratching, skin lesions and digestive problems caused by environmental allergies. Consult a veterinarian for diagnosis and treatment, said Dr. Shashank Kamble, Specialist, Planet Animal Hospital, Mumbai.
