Doggies Private Get-a-Way
Dog kennels and crates are a great way in training your new pet and is a safe haven for them when they feel household noises are too confusing, such as loud music, TV, or just loud voices in conversation. First of all, there is really no difference from dog kennels and crates, they are just different shapes, sizes, and colors, and are 
constructed as a wire kennel, a plastic one, or a wooden dog kennel and crate. The plastic kennel or crate usually always has a handle and is also considered as a pet carrier for moving from place to place and is convenient when traveling with a small pet, keeping them in one place for their safety, where the wire kennels have more visual opportunity for the dog to see better of the surroundings around them. Wire kennels are especially handy for larger dogs for going in and out of their kennel at their will in their home, and are available for traveling in SUV’s according to the dog’s size.
Do not confuse the wire indoor dog kennel and crate to the ones that are available for outdoors that are much larger in size and one where the dogs food and water can be 
kept inside the kennel, especially if the pet parent is gone for any considerable amount of time. Place a cover of some sort on the top of the kennel for shade or any unexpected weather changes. I have seen large wire kennels in back yards that even added a doghouse of some sort for the dog to snuggle when they want to rest. Just a word of caution, make sure the dog’s collar is one that will slip off, just in case…. Be Happy!
Going Camping, Take Your Dog Along
Dogs love to be outdoors sniffing around for different scents involving other dogs, cats, and squirrels mostly because it is of excitement to them realizing that they are 
not the only ones that love the outdoors. This is the time for camping out in rural areas for fun and relaxation and walking along paths through the woods seeing wild flowers, birds and different species of insects. I must admit that I have never been camping because I always lived out in the country, and experiencing that type of living, you did not need to camp. You pretty much are camping, but of course depending what the definition of camping is to some individuals, this is the way of life for rural living, for some.
Setting up a camp on your own property, cooking out and watching the stars at night is equal to 
going somewhere out of town and looking for places to camp, I would just guess from hearing other people talk, getting all the family involved is such a 
wonderful accomplishment being outdoors together, including their dog. The pet family has camping equipment and a place to sleep, but what about their dog. This is where the soft-sided dog crate is handy and breaks down to carry in a dog crate carry bag, and when not in use can be stored or even used in the pet family’s home. This crate if affordable, lightweight and provides the dog to observe the family activities and has appropriate ventilation for the dog. Be Happy!
Out of the Ordinary Dog Crate
Most dog crates (kennels) advertised are the traditional wire crates that break down usually into four sections, front, back and two sides, and are very adaptable to house 
our pets when times are required. Now what does “required” mean? Training our dogs to have their own place of comfort and a place of confinement when it is necessary to keep them out of mischief and when there are crowds within the pet parents’ home for dinner or just partying. Pet parents love to have their pet around full time, but sometime not all individuals take to dogs like some people do, so controlling their whereabouts is important to keep stress under controlled if some of your guests are not animal lovers.
As stated above the traditional dog crate is usually a wire crate, but can also be a 
plastic crate, or perhaps as soft-sided crate, but have you seen the wooden dog crates that are end tables as well that will blend into the pet parents living room, or even their bedroom? They are a beautiful piece of furniture and designed to complement the pet parent’s interior decorating. They are handcrafted of solid oak, and also available in mahogany or cherry and are more of a piece of furniture than what you would think as being a dog crate. Our pets deserve the very best, and having a special place for your furry friend, is high society. Be Happy!
Dog Crates and Kennels
There is a difference of opinion between dog kennels and a dog crate. Dog kennels 
are wire and are in sections where they can break down flat for moving or storage, and some may be plastic. Plastic crates are useful for smaller dogs placed in selected areas without any trouble. Depending on the size of the dog, some dog crates or dog kennels will allow the pet to see what is going on around them and they will feel comfortable without whining because they feel alone.
Dog crates or dog kennels (which are actually the same) can differ, but over all, the dog will learn that this is where they should go for peace away from turmoil within the home. Sometime they tend to get under the pet parents’ feet, and if there are visitors, they 
can be a nuisance. My dog had his own dog kennel that was placed in a large closet with the door open and he could come and go as he pleased, but still confined when the appropriate situation required him to stay put. That was not a problem, because that was his domain and a place to call his own, but to some people that do not have pets will not understand, but the pet parent will. Be Happy!
Every Dog Needs Their Own Bed
Every dog should have his or her own bed whether it is some luxurious bedding or a homemade one. A few old blankets make good dog beds as well, but whatever is best 
for you and your dog is what you should have. A good dog bed is important for large breed dogs and if by chance, they are suffering from arthritis or hip dysplasia it is even more important for them to have a soft bed to lie in. There are orthopedic dog beds that are heated and dog beds that are for their crates for a restful night’s sleep.
Do not forget the small breed dogs, they need comfort too even though they may not have medical problems that require a soft bed, but why not provide them one 
anyway. We all love comfort, especially when we go to bed at night. If you have a crate or kennel for your dog, then cover the bottom with a dog bed that is quite affordable. The pet parent will be at ease knowing they have helped to comfort them in a cozy atmosphere that belongs only to their dog. Be Happy!
Wooden End Table Dog Crates are Fashionable
I am sure all of us have seen some beautiful wooden end tables to go along with our 
living room or bedroom décor, but a dog crate. Thought I had heard of everything, but guess not because there are wooden end table dog crates out on the market that are twofold. One for the beauty of the table and the other, for your furry friend. The end table is constructed out of hardwood and easy to handle.
These wooden dog crates are different 
compared to the ones we know and have used for many years, but what a wonderful idea. The door opens from left to right and can swing inside so it is not in the way of traffic, whichever way works best for you and your pet. Also depends on the location you want to display it to show off its beauty. In matching your color scheme, there are several choices that would be in line with any decor. Be Happy!
Dog Crates Make a Difference
Dog crates are available in several styles and designs and pet parents must evaluate 
what the need is for their dog and themselves. Will the dog crate be used for training, or a place their dog can call their own? Plastic, metal and soft-sided crates all do the job depending on how the pet parents want to make use of the dog crate. Metal crates have always been most popular thoughout the years, but now more elaborate crates are gaining in popularity.
Plastic crates are durable and lightweight and many airlines will approve taking the plastic crate a board. Metal crates are great because they may be folded for storage 
when not in use, and are capable of being moved to different locations. Soft-sided crates are lightweight as well, and work out great in camping out with their pet parents. Whichever the choice is, keep in mind that the cheapest does not mean the best quality for the pet parents and their dog. Just like anything else, you get what you pay for. Be Happy!
New Webpage Completion
Today was the day, and all is good! New products are now online on my website, www.Petguardianangel.com, and I am very pleased with the outcome of the presentation. Just a few bugs as I expected and all problems solved to work smoothly toward your expectations. That is not saying that there will not be others, but if and when they surface, adjustments 
will be made. I would like to thank all of you that have been following the reconstruction pages grow, and I am pleased of the progress. I just ordered a new dog safety collar for my boy, Pope. Even though he is not in the best of health, I felt he deserved a brand new dog collar. The one he has been wearing for the last 12 years is a little faded. Shame on me for not replacing it a long time ago. The new products are quite useful and attractive for the safety of our pets. I will continue to look for new and different products as time goes 
by because the interesting thing about technology is the fact that applying updates to some of the unbelievable safety products shows interest in the protection of our pets. One such product is the pet water fountain where the water flows through a charcoal filter removing bad tastes and odors and keeps the water fresh.
Another exciting product is the wooden dog crate end table. Now that is special for your dog, not only does it provide a safe and comfortable place for your dog to rest, it also provides a beautiful end table for use next to your sofa or bed. The wooden dog crates are easy to clean and have waterproof 
floors that absorb liquids and odors. Padded beds are available for the dog crates, and the front door will swing in or out, as to the pet parents preference. Your dog will be able to come and go as they wish, and will make a cozy and comfortable place to sleep in at night, or during the daytime hours. Mahogany or Antique Black are the selections offered. Again, thank you for keeping up with the reconstruction of the website. Be Happy!
Update on the Reconstruction of My Website
The reconstruction of my website has taken longer to complete than I previously thought. Again, I hope to have everything available before the end of the month. Every time one portion of the reconstruction is completed, another problem arises, that is how we learn and understand that there are faster and better ways in finalizing completion, to include additional products as they become available. Lots of detail involved like anything else when adding products to the Internet. KEEP A LOOK OUT of what’s coming! It shouldn’t be too much longer before you will be able to purchase directly from my website. There will continue to be available products that will refer you to your specific interest.
One of the new items is a shedding tool to remove your dog’s old hair so the new hair will look shiny and healthy. This awesome tool pulls the old hair from underneath which is hard to get with the regular combs used in brushing. Several styles of pet booster seats will be available, with one that folds and slides into the dog’s suitcase along with a bed. Really is a neat and convenient item. Tick collars will be available in keeping those nasty things from biting your dog and embedding themselves into their skin. Styles that are different from the ordinary dog crate, is a wicker dog crate that will conform to any home décor. A spray and gel product that will remove plaque and tarter on your dog’s teeth is effective for their dental care. One of the new dog ramps also offers a carrying bag to transport the dog’s car ramp. If not in use, it may be stored under your bed, or closet. Last, but not least is a ‘handi’ portable dog water dish that can be used to keep your dog hydrated on their long walks or rides in the car. Be Happy!
Crates for Pets Make the Pet Parent’s Life Easier
Pet crates for dogs are available in wire, wood, and soft-sided crates and are a great tool in potty training a new puppy, or just having a place for your 
dog to call their own and feel warm and cozy. A new puppy can get into an awful lot of trouble when their pet parents are away, so by all means, consider a crate. Pet crates will help train a young dog to wait to go potty, but you must remember a small puppy cannot go for long periods without having an accident. They will try to hold it as long as they can in hopes that relief will be coming soon. This training must be gradual and consistent to everyday activities. As time goes by and your puppy starts to grow, continue having the pet crates available at all times. Always make sure your dogs collar is not too tight that if they were to be caught up on something in the crate, they could get out of their collar before an unforeseen accident could occur. This is where a dog safety breakaway collar is great. This is probably one thing that pet parents do not concern themselves with because they just do not think about it. Remember pet safety should always be a priority on anything associated with your pet. Never assume that your dog has outgrown the crate and you feel that you want to remove it because it no longer goes with your home decor and has become an eyesore.
As much as all of us love our pets dearly, always think ahead. This may save you heart ache that could have been avoided. I am not trying to put fear into the pet parent’s feelings toward having a pet crate for their furry friend, but only to suggest that safety is always first. I am sure you feel this way about your children, (not to be comparing children to pets) but our pets are 
not any different in caring for their welfare and happiness. As time goes on your dog will learn to associate their new place of comfort on a positive side and will go in and out on their own will. It is amazing how intelligent these wonderful animals are, and they will adjust to your leading them, and teaching them how to be obedient. This will be rewarding for you, and for them to accept responsibility to their pet parents’ commands. Dog crates are handy for them to feel safe and out of danger when holidays come along with visitors, and loud noises that are out of the ordinary. They will feel comfortable in their own surroundings during times of turmoil. Be Happy!
