Buying Pets
It's never a good idea to buy an animal from a pet store--but if you do, at least get the information that the store is legally required to give you.
Getting the terms down in writing can avoid misunderstandings.
If you buy a dog with a medical problem, you may be able to return the animal or get reimbursed for your veterinary expenses.
If a seller makes specific promises, you are entitled to get what you paid for.
Veterinarians
Just like other professionals, veterinarians are held to a high standard of practice.
With more and more expensive treatment options for animals, owners are reconsidering pet health insurance.
If you think your pet suffered an injury while at the vet's, here are your options.
Regulations for Pet Owners
Many cities put limits on the number of pooches per dwelling.
Keeping your dog immunized is not only a good idea, it's probably required by law.
If you're looking to buy a condominium or planned subdivision unit (frequently called planned unit development or P.U.D.), be prepared for rules.
Every dog needs a license--basically, you're paying a small tax to help support animal care services in your community.
The only way to reduce pet overpopulation--and the resulting need to euthanize millions of adoptable pets each year in shelters--is to spay and neuter.
Communities regulate where you can lay your pet to rest.
Guide dogs, signal dogs, and service dogs can be of enormous help to people with disabilities.
