Pets #72: Pet Health Online

According to the DogAge quiz, my pug Bubba is 9 years old in human years, which according to the site was much younger than other Pugs. Bubba is in good health, goes to trhe vet regularly, and gets a lot of exercise which all contributed to his young age. I think the test was fairly accurate, because Bubba is about 2 1/2 years old, and he is a very healthy dog. Bubba's fitness routine includes walks around the neighborhood, running in the backyard with my other two dogs, chasing squirrels and birds. Sometimes I take him to the dog park, so he can run around and play and socialize with other dogs. He really seems to enjoy that.

Pets #71: Finding a Pet

According to the Pet Picker quiz, the best pet for me is a bird. I don't think the quiz is very accurate though, because I would never get a bird. I used the Pet Finder website to look for pets and it was very good. I searched for different dog breeds in my area and I found many available pets. The site listed many different adoptions groups, and all the information you would need to adopt the pets including the cost, location, and contact information. This is a good site for anyone looking for a pet.
