Our family has not had good luck with pets, I’m sorry to say. My husband has asthmatic-like allergies to pet dander…so the typical housepets are out for us. No cats or dogs or rabbits…nothing like that for us. We have tried quite a few “alternative pets” and have not had a lot of success with these types of pets. We’ve tried hermit crabs, gerbils, hamsters, frogs…all didn’t work so well for us.

I wish we could utilize a service like Happiness is Pets.

This service specializes in puppies and helps people find the pet that will fit their family. They even have specially designed playrooms for customers to get acquainted with the puppies prior to purchase.

They are located in the Chicago area and they have an extensive selection of puppies, as well as a full line of dog toys, accessories, grooming supplies and food.
