My basic attitude in life is “Count me in”. I’m very enthusiastic about playing ball, riding in the car (even with the top down), doing a few tricks & high 5’s, and “shopping” at Petco. I also enjoy sleeping, snoring, and eating.

Did You Know?
My dad won Best of Breed at Westminister. I am named after Bonzo, a character of British comics and toys of the 1920’s-30’s, the Snoopy of the time, always getting into trouble with stories based on his antics and pals.
When did you become part of your pack?
When I joined my family: at 8 weeks old, I was from Phenix Bulldogs in Jacksonville Fl. My human dad used to judge and breed bullies like me, so he knew one of the best and kindest breeders who owned my mommy and siblings. My older sister, Story, is a tiny toy poodle at 4 pounds, and getting older at age 12, but she is tolerant of me, and I am gentle with her.
Your favorite moment or story?
Well, that’s tough: either floating on a raft in the pool, or playing on the beach. I’m looking forward to my first snowfall, as my human family just moved to Cape Cod from Florida this past spring. And all us Bullies love the cold.”

Sitting on the highest couchpoint I can find, and overseeing my family’s activities. Walking, as I’m very agile, especially considering my age and size, and I can keep up with the best of human walkers – including CapeK9Cardio!

Goals:
Getting as much attention, petting, and human food as I can. I am a bonafide lap dog.
Favorite Activity:
Going wherever my family is: in the car, watching TV, laying under the computer desk, laying out in the sun on the deck. Riding in the basket on my human mom’s bike.
Favorite Food:
Can I only choose one? It’s a toss up between chicken and salmon.
Did You Know?
I had the fastest bike ride of my life, as several hawks kept swooping down towards me in Florida as we peddled like crazy to get home to safety. I was barely 1 pound at birth. Although us teacups are very healthy and cute, we are too small to enter any AKC dogshows.
When did you become part of your pack?
Right after I was born, a long time ago.
Your favorite moment or story?
When I visit my human grandma and grandpa, who fill my hours with laying on grandma’s lap and getting petted, to getting all riled up and “fighting” with Grandpa, who has a way of teasing me to get me going.”
Story
Cape Cod offers many pet care choices for dog and cat owners who must leave their beloved animals behind while they travel. Many people first consider a friend or the local kennel. But there are more choices than ever now when considering the well being of your pet. This article will explain several factors for pet owners to consider when making arrangements for the comfort and safety of their dogs, cats and other animals. The topics of diet and exercise will briefly be addressed, along with tips to help your pets avoid separation anxiety and stress that goes along with travel plans when we leave our animals behind. Hopefully this article will help to provide good information to the pet public on available dog boarding and pet sitting choices.
Leaving Cape Cod on Vacation?
Your pets always depend on you for comfort and care, even when you are traveling. So when you leave Cape Cod on your next trip, you should consider hiring someone you trust. Simply having a friend or neighbor watch your pets can prove disastrous. They probably do not possess the experience or have enough time to properly care for your pets, especially during long trips or vacations. If a vet visit is required that may cause a strain too.
The two most popular choices for Cape Cod dog and cat owners are kenneling and pet sitting.
Cape Cod Boarding Kennels
Boarding at a kennel will avoid the stress of a long trip in the car or airplane. It can allow your animals to stay where they are welcome and usually you can pay an extra fee to receive playtime and exercise. Your pets will be fed and cared for while you travel. The kennel will monitor your dog along with many other dogs in a dormitory style setting. Cats are usually stacked in crates. If there is a detectable health problem the kennel will call a vet. Security is normally a top concern at kennels, which are designed to thwart any escape attempts by confining your pets in a cage. When you arrive from your trip, you usually have a small window of opportunity make a trip out to the kennel and pick up your pets.
Potential drawbacks to using a boarding kennel include:
Kennels can add to stress and anxiety because your animals will be in an unfamiliar environment.
Your pets will be surrounded by unfamiliar dogs, people and smells.
Some pets may even be exposed to the health problems of other animals such as kennel cough.
If you have animals such as birds, reptiles or other exotic animals it is unlikely that any kennel will take them.
Your dogs and cats may not be on their regular diet, which can cause digestive problems.
