28. Wedding Day Pets!

Author: Brett the Vet September 16, 2022 Duration: 52:12

Welcome to another episode of the Pet Purpose Podcast, the show where my guests and I talk all things pet related… topics that help passionate pet parents take pet parenting to the next level, and topics that are simply of interest for pet parents.  

“I now pronounce you….. woof, woof , woof!” Have you ever attended a wedding? I’m sure you have. Did the bridal couple have their pet involved in their special occasion? Did you even know that having a furry family friend being involved in a wedding day was even possible?  Well, not only is it most certainly possible, but many would argue that it amplifies the joy and excitement of the occasion for everyone involved.  

In this episode of the Pet Purpose Podcast my guest, Shelley Thorpe from Pets as Guests, and I talk about pets and weddings. 

We cover off some the following questions?:

·      what is a pet chaperone

·      what are the ways a pet can be involved in a wedding

·      who can make all the arrangements and take care of your pet on the wedding day

·      and much more!

If you know of someone who will be getting married at some point in the future and they are a pet lover then this episode is a must!..... please enjoy the conversation.
