I have written some reviews on pet products, and while it is very nice to learn all that I learn when researching a product, sometimes I need to mix it up a bit. I have had a lot of pets over the years, and so has my family, so for entertainment, I have been reminiscing about old dog stories. It has been fun to write about them, and hopefully they get you thinking about some of the old times you have had with your pets.

My uncle could never figure out what was so great about having a pet. He thought that my mom and dad were crazy to dote over their dogs. The past two years, his wife has been diagnosed with a very serious disease which puts her in constant pain. The pain not only has restricted her driving, but put a complete stop to it. Put yourself in her shoes and imagine being confined to the house after having a very active social life. Things were not going so good and then a good friend brought them a fluffy poodle in a Sherpa Pet Carrier to watch for the week-end. Now it is their poodle, and they have a few Sherpa Pet Carriers, one for any occasion. A complete turnaround took place with my uncle, and he is now absolutely crazy over Sugar, the poodle. And to think, he accused my parents of doting over their dogs. He and his wife take their pet everywhere including funerals, and family reunions where the dog is given his own plate and dish of water on the table He holds the poodle with one hand and eats with the other. It is quite entertaining.

When you hear that dogs are the best therapy, my aunt is a terrific example of this statement. She has quit focusing on her pain and cuddles and pets the poodle transferring her attention from herself to the safety and welfare of Sugar. The best part of this type of therapy is that any animal that relates to his/her master can be emotionally, physically, and socially adapted. When you live with an animal it becomes part of the family. A Sherpa Pet Carrier is one of the most fantastic ways to take your small pet with you, and my uncle has found that out. This tote comes with a removable faux lambskin liner for the most comfortable ride. Being removable, the liner can easily be washed to keep it fresh for those outings. The heavy duty mesh wire side door and side panels provide plenty of ventilation and a nice view for your pet as you stroll along.

This is one of the best carriers for air travel as it is airline approved. The Sherpa Pet Carrier manufacturers are avid pet lovers and enthusiasts; therefore, they want to insure you that your pet travels comfortably and with peace of mind for you. They have worked with airlines and developed a program called "Guaranteed on Board" which outlines the steps you will need when traveling with you pet to make sure its carrier complies with the airline rules and regulations. Sherpa Pet Carriers are the best on the market, and if you are looking for a way to travel with your small dog or pet, you should definitely check them out.
