Why is pet foster care so expensive?

Foster care can be said to provide great convenience for many pet friends who often need to travel, but with the development of pet business, we will also find that some pet-related items and projects are becoming more and more expensive. Even the cost of foster care is gradually increasing, and some places even need a grandfather Mao every day, which is a burden that no one can afford. Of course, foster care fees can't be so expensive every day. Only at certain times will their prices go up.

Generally speaking, the price of dog foster care is relatively normal. However, due to the shortage of places on holidays such as the Spring Festival, they will take this opportunity to raise prices and strive for some profits. But this is understandable, because it is really difficult to find a foster home during this period. Some pets' one-day foster care price even exceeds the single room in the economic hotel where ordinary people live. It can be said that it is a relatively large expense. Without certain economic strength, it is not easy to raise a good dog.

Since most migrant workers have to go home on holidays, it is inconvenient to carry their own luggage, and adding a dog will add a lot of trouble. Due to the inconvenience of carrying, many pet owners choose to foster their pets in pet shops. During this period, most pet shops will mark the "Spring Festival Pet Foster Care Price List". If you don't know, you will be shocked. In the past, the daily foster care price of small dogs in 30 yuan soared to 50 yuan. According to this standard, the daily foster care fee for dogs under 10 kg is 50 yuan, and the foster care fee will increase 10 kg for each increase in dog weight. For those overweight medium-sized dogs and large dogs, their daily foster care costs are higher than those of Grandpa Mao. Compared with the single room in 77 yuan launched by an economical hotel chain, we have to say that the consumption level of dogs is really high.

Environmental sanitation of dog foster families is very important.

Since most owners who work outside the home have to go home for empty nests during holidays, dogs naturally become "empty nest pets". Everyone's dog will stay in the pet store for a few days. Keeping a dog is full of troubles, but the pet shop is so big, the number of cages and kennels is limited, and the staff left on duty have limited energy. Therefore, it is necessary to "grab the place" to stay in the store. "Without a week's advance positioning, you may not be able to stay at any time", so many owners have to book in advance.

Of course, the trouble doesn't stop there. Before sending dogs to the store, they should pack up their daily necessities, and dog food must be prepared. If the owner usually feeds the dog some imported dog food, the shortage of dog food is also a trouble, because suddenly changing dog food may bring discomfort to the dog, and the dog will live in a strange environment and may get sick.

Therefore, we should also learn to nip in the bud. At home, prepare as many foods as possible that dogs usually like to eat, and of course, calculate the shelf life. Otherwise, the dog food we bought may soon go bad and finally be wasted. Moreover, for foster care places, the owners should also check in advance to see how the environmental sanitation there is. If all goes wrong, don't choose to foster there.
