]]> Comment on Avoiding Fake Boston Terrier Breeders by Kathleen http://keob.com/avoiding-fake-boston-terrier-breeders/#comment-98 Kathleen Sat, 07 Jun 2008 18:59:04 +0000 http://keob.com/avoiding-fake-boston-terrier-breeders/#comment-98 In addition to the questions you'll ask the breeder, you can expect them to have a few questions for you, the buyer, as well. After all, a reputable breeder has put time and effort into breeding this puppy and wants to make sure it is going to a good home. Some possible questions include: * Why have you decided on a a Boston Terrier instead of another breed? Are you aware of their special requirements (e.g., Bostons don't do well in extreme heat or cold)? * What pets do you currently have? Have you had other pets in the past? What happened to them? * Do you live in a house or an apartment? Is your yard fenced? * How much time can you devote to exercising your dog? These are just some of the questions a good Boston Terrier breeder may ask you. Be prepared! :wink: In addition to the questions you’ll ask the breeder, you can expect them to have a few questions for you, the buyer, as well.

]]> Comment on Pet Insurance for the Masses by Carpe Diem http://keob.com/pet-insurance-for-the-masses/#comment-75 Carpe Diem Thu, 03 Apr 2008 12:27:52 +0000 http://keob.com/pet-insurance-for-the-masses/#comment-75 Having had one dog who got cancer(subsequent $7K of expenses before we had to put him down) and another with chronic allergies, I knew insurance was going to be a necessity for our next dog. After doing a bunch of research, we chose a new company, Trupanion(www.trupanion.com). They specialize in lifetime coverage for puppies and kittens. Our dog was 9 months old when we got him from the local shelter. I know there's always the game to be played of saving the premiums for a rainy day or getting insurance. For me, I'd rather put the money into insurance and know I've got coverage when the inevitable happens.
