Not long ago, I joined more and more dog owners found in Toronto. It's been a while since my last dog, just like a pet owner has a new world. After doing my research and finding the best fit for my lifestyle and family, I contacted the breeder and sent a questionnaire to see if I was fit for one of their puppies. After taking my little one home, I was suddenly immersed in potty training, chewing, boxing, obedience and social classes, as well as learning about the latest attributes of raw food. I am scheduling the date with my puppy and his new friends, and if possible, take him when I visit, instead of letting him go home alone. Between the owners of furkids, this is a completely different mindset, and the world of consumerism is very happy.
According to Statistics Canada, 50% of us live with pets, 38% of which are pets. Our furry friends spend up to $800 million a year, including veterinary fees, food, training, beauty, and dog walks to puppy day care.
The number of dogs in downtown Toronto has grown by leaps and bounds, and many families' pets take over children before and after the child returns. Gen "Y" is considering raising a dog as a training before the children come, and the baby boomers fill the gap after their child leaves the nest.
Pets are now considered to be a more equal part of the family, and more than half of the owners like to call themselves moms and dads. As the attitude towards pets changes, owners also invest in dog walkers and dog day care because they can't be nearby. More people also work from home, which reduces responsibility and the dog has become a social activity. Since the beginning of the puppies is very important in terms of training and socializing, some people started their vacation in the first few months, calling it "Mat Leave" and even sending their newly added announcements.
More and more hotels have become very friendly to holiday pet families, and dogs are common, not only can they play together, but they can also monitor their puppies through a webcam. The North American courts have actually seen an upward trend, and divorced couples have shared custody of pets. These fur bundles play an important role in their families.
Many old houses in Toronto have undergone extensive renovations and reconstructions. Designers are considering the needs of these furkids and have realized clever ideas, flowing with their vision and allowing dog friendly spaces. Wet paws, waterproof flooring, outside dog doors, dog showers and bathtubs, built-in feeding stations and matching mud beds for dog bedding and pillows add functionality and visual continuity to these redoed homes.
The Toronto apartment boom continues and more and more dogs are pouring into it. It has never been foreseen that so many apartment residents will include dogs. City councils and planners want to introduce new regulations, including dog facilities, rather than an option. This may include providing pet spa areas to clean dog paws and keeping the corridor clean as well as roof and indoor dog runs. Over the past decade, we have seen an increase in the number of new homes sold in the Toronto area to 57%, namely condominiums. Affordability is the biggest factor, and the number of dogs included in these families has not been foreseen before.
Another important factor in apartment buyers and dogs is the purchase of any green space. Exercise is very important for the dog's life and the need for them to have a business in the area. Being close to the park is often more important for people living in an apartment because there is no backyard to visit. The increase in the belt area of Toronto Park can of course be attributed to the growing number of dogs and responsible dog owners serving their furkids. Dogs and children share parks in and around downtown Toronto.
In addition to the community being a factor in choosing a place to live, now considering their dogs, the proximity of parks and trails is another factor to consider.
Many Toronto apartments and lofts have become the first choice for those with dogs. Located in the heart of the city, close to the waterfront, CityPlace Condos offers a bathing area and a dog run. It is a short walk from the waterfront trails without leaving the hotel. Liberty Village has many dog park areas and green spaces, serving the surrounding buildings and is very friendly. Candy Factory Lofts is a true loft in downtown Toronto, just a short walk from Trinity Bellwoods Park. It is a huge multi-purpose park with a belt called a dog bowl. Located in High Park - Roncesvalles, Abby Lofts is a converted 19th-century church just a few minutes from High Park. There you will find belts and belts as well as exploring trails. Another popular option is the Martin Goodman Trail along the waterfront and the further west is the Humber Bay Park, which also offers a belt area and winding trails and trails that create a dog owner's outdoor in the city. heaven.
Urban dwellers looking for the perfect neighborhood are now considering how their dogs will increase their own social fun and how they can incorporate them into their daily lives. Now I see the outdoor terrace full of dog owners sipping their cappuccino, and Fido patiently lying and waiting, now very common. Walking along your favorite neighborhood is always more fun, and the companions around you have exactly four legs and are more eye-catching than you think.
If you already own or plan to raise a dog, then you confirm that it is as important as any condominium you might be considering, and actually allows dogs. The rules of the building may vary depending on the dog, size, variety and number of pets. You don't want to be disappointed afterwards. Unfortunately, some older buildings still have "no dogs" rules.
So when I added Baxter to my family, I was able to experience the fun of raising a dog again. I found that even in our daily walks, in addition to doing extra sports for myself, I also found that the people I met were more friendly. Around a furkid, it really makes you smile.
I have listed a list of my favorite Toronto West End Parks, which are part of a community that shares green spaces with our furry friends. They are perfect for all pet owners, especially for those living in apartment spaces, it is more important to find nearby parks.
