The MyPetChild website has been designed with the well-being, safety, and health of your pets in mind. The website has been created to help ensure that owners are able to adequately care for their pets, financially and physically. Maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle for your dog is one of the most important things you need to do as an owner.
MyPetChild is an increasingly popular website for new and existing dog owners and for those who are considering purchasing their first dog. Below is some information about the features available on the website and how you can benefit from visiting the site.
The Website at a Glance
When you arrive at the landing page of MyPetChild, you can choose from a number of options to get more information. You will also see that the site was created to try to reduce the increasing number of pet surrenders in both the US and UK.
There are sections for UK assistance and US assistance for those who are finding looking after their dog increasingly difficult. We know that for most dog owners, the thought of surrendering their beloved pet for any reason is an extremely difficult and emotional consideration. Therefore the MyPetChild website can give you further options, guidance, and places of support to help you to keep your pet at home.
There is information about financial aid available and a section currently being added regarding food donations. We understand that as living costs increase, it can be difficult to feed your pets and family so having an opportunity to review financial and food support is excellent.
Further Support
In addition to the information above, the website has tools and guidance to help you to care for the pets you have and also to help you to decide if getting a dog is the right decision for you. There are tools for calculating the expense of getting a dog which is a great way to ensure that fewer dogs are being bought and found to be unaffordable, resulting in the surrendering of the pet in the future.
There are also some excellent resources regarding the nutrition needed for dogs, including a database of human foods that can be checked to find out if something is toxic for a dog and additionally if it is safe for the dog to consume.
There is information about dog behaviors which is a great resource if you have not previously owned a dog or if your dog’s behavior changes. Vet bills can add to the expense of owning a pet, and you should always get your pet checked by a professional if you are concerned about their behavior or physical health. However, this tool is a great way to check if the behavior exhibited is normal and the common reason for it before you decide if a vet visit is needed.
You can also read articles on steps you need to take if your dog has consumed certain household items or items they could consume when out walking.
