Where to Adopt a Pet in San Diego

Where to Adopt a Pet in San Diego

Here at Convoy Auto Repair, we believe that if you’re ready to add a pet to the family, the best way to do it is through a rescue, shelter, or humane society. With so many dogs, cats, and other animals stuck in the Southern California shelter system, it makes sense to seek out the homeless animal that is a perfect fit for your family. Here are some great resources on where to adopt a pet in San Diego and the surrounding area. San Diego is lucky to have one of the lower-kill shelter systems in the region. If you’re looking for a new dog or cat, the best place to start is with San Diego County Animal Control or the San Diego Humane Society. Dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments find their way to the shelter, and both SDDAC and SD Humane offer low-fee adoptions to the public. Both also try and prioritize accurate images of their adoptables, so adopter ... read more

Best Car Products for Pets

Best Car Products for Pets

If we've learned nothing during the last two weeks, it's that Americans love to bring their pets with them no matter where they go.

Best Cars for Pets of 2014

Best Cars for Pets of 2014

Parents always make sure their kids are either in an appropriate car seat or booster or are wearing their seat belts in the car, right? Of course; even if sometimes your kids get on your nerves you love them, and (most importantly) it’s the law. So why on Earth aren’t you putting your dog in a safety harness or restraint whenever he or she rides along with you? This is especially surprising since everyone knows the dog is the most loved member of the family. (Don’t deny it, they don’t talk back.) There are many ways to keep your pet safe in the car. The first is to always have them riding in the back of the car because a front airbag detonation would most likely prove deadly in a frontal impact. The second is to use an appropriate safety harness or carrier for your pet's size and weight. And if you're the type to hold your small dog, cat, or p ... read more

Top 5 Car Safety Devices for Pets

Top 5 Car Safety Devices for Pets

May is the official start of kitten and puppy season in San Diego, which means the shelters are full of adorable fuzzies that need homes. This would be the perfect time to consider fostering those who are too young to be adopted out, or even adding a new member to your family! Since we treat our pets like they're treasured members of the family, it's no surprise that we've spent more than $55 billion last year on our animals, nor that the pet safety industry is alive and well, and even thriving!
