New Pet Owners Workshop

  Introduction to Pet Ownership                            

Are you thinking about getting a new pet? Are you aware of the essential requirements that your new pet needs? Are you an existing pet owner but would like to learn more about the welfare requirements of your pet? It is a fact new pet owners become disillusioned with their new pets because they have not prepared themselves for adjustments  that new pets can bring.
