They say that dogs are not just for Christmas, though this applies to all animals, especially those little white fluffy balls called Angoras who need love and care long after the Christmas wrappings have all been packed away, and Christmas forgotten about.  Dog wardens all over the country are preparing for another festive season of finding  pets new homes and reminding people that dogs are for life, not just for Christmas.   If you’re thinking of getting a dog why not wait a while.  There will be plenty looking for a new home soon, and they, together with the dog charities that rescue them will be extremely grateful that you can help.   If you already have a dog, try to keep things as normal as possible over Christmas.  Too many visitors, rowdiness or noise etc. can unsettle many pets.  So why not let your pet enjoy Christmas too,  by buying a new toy to keep him or her occupied, possibly in a quieter area of the house.  Get some  ideas here.
