Despite the recession, it seems pet owners are not giving up on the welfare of their pets. This even extends to their pet food, and in the UK, it has recently been announced that pet owners are showing an increased willingness to spend extra money on the best food for their dogs and cats in 2009.

The UK - Pet Lovers

In 2008, it is estimated that around 1.7bn pounds was spent on pet food for domestic animals in the UK, and it is easy to see why. Even when times are hard and homeowners are struggling to keep their heads above water with the depressing economic gloom, their pets remain faithfully optimistic by their side. Owners are pouring their love and affection into their pets and rewarding them by spending more on the finer things in life for them, which for most dogs simply means a tasty bowl of dog food. The UK is a nation of pet lovers and this is exemplified by the increased spend on our pets. Of course, most dogs and cats don’t ask for much, and their dinner is probably the thing they most look forward to each day, which is why pets are so refreshing to have around when times are hard. They adore their owners and ask for very little in return.

Aggressive dog behavior should be stopped because it develops over time and becomes worse. You should be aware of your dog’s behavior. Sometimes small dogs get away with more aggressive behavior because of their size. It is not seen as offensive if they jump on top of you or pull you on the leash. But they too can hurt you or others and should also be disciplined.

Neutered dogs require less food and you need to make sure they are getting enough exercise to prevent weight gain.

Dog neutering or spaying will not change your best friends personality, intelligence, playfulness or guarding abilities. They will live long, healthy and happy lives and be a great pet.

The greater and more important issue here is over-population. Shelters are full and of the approximately 27 millions dogs born each year in the U.S. 5-10 million are put to death because they are unwanted and that does not include the hundreds of thousands that we have no statistics on that are abandoned, neglected or abused. By far the largest cause of death in the U.S. and Canada is euthanasia.

There is a real sense of puppy love going on in the UK at the moment, and its not just dogs that are feeling the benefit of tastier, better pet food. Cats and rabbits are too, as people are realising that their pets come first and spending on a good brand of pet food really is money well spent
