I have seen plenty of animal blogs but the best by far is the entertaining Peter Caine. Most of the more familiar blogs are industry people. No keeping Iguanas is hard work and 90/ of people shouldn’t do it. Turtles are very hard work and should be treated more or less like aquariums for fish entertainment but marginal pets. The huge tortoises should be illegal or at least licensed and inspected.
The thing I like about Caine is direct talk. Most pet owners are not realistic. I met an Asian CEO who has a red Heeler pup in a NYC townhouse. Lousy idea unless you get a pro like Caine training. His talk of ignorance is brutal but but true. My daughter wanted a Husky in our small townhouse with a cat and small children. It is a dumb idea and I wanted a west highland terrier but she insisted on a larger dog. We have a greyhound Sheppard mix which she does poorly.
I would love to see what Peter Caine can do with a chihuahua. No doubt he is a skilled professional and will do an outstanding job. Yet I just want to see what can be done with the incorrigible breed, something has to give
What makes him well worth listening to is his no nonsense talk about how difficult caring for birds are. If it’s a bad idea he says so. Someone came up with the idea of using a squirt bottle on the bird. The Raven enjoyed the experience. His no bs talk on pets and calcium should be mandatory viewing.
I did tell the CEO to watch Caine and consider hiring him.
What makes Caine priceless is if something is dumb, he doesn’t beat around the bush. Be leery of animal blogs that tell you everything is easy. Honest people are rare and priceless.
