| Don’t forget to stock up on the pups needs Just a reminder when you are stocking up on essentials for you during this health crisis don’t forget about your pups! Mine had about a half left of a 17 pound bag of food but I still went and got another bag as well as some extra treats. I have gotten several emails. Chewy is behind by 2 days so instead of getting your order in 1-2 days it’s more like 3-4. I also had some of the speciality dog food company’s email me about limited stock in their food. So just don’t forget the pups. Right now we can’t find any chicken breast at the store which my pups are used to some of so praying they restock and I can get some before we run out!

| I went today to stock up on pups food, then off to CVS for his bottled water, there was NO water of any brand. I didn't want to battle the supermarket that carries his brand of water, I will do that Wednesday. Ppl are going nuts and stocking up on everything, insane.

| You could try using Brita or Pur water filters. Just an option.

| When I first adopted Cody he was drinking tap water, 4 months later he had major surgery for a stricture. After that surgery he refused the tap water, he needed to drink water or get dehydrated, every brand I bought he wouldn't drink. I made plain chicken soup, no salt, no onions. I was putting a TBSP of broth in his bowl using bottled water just to get him to drink until I found a brand he would drink, after I went through every brand of water in the supermarket including Fiji and Evian I bought a Brita, all refused. Then I went to CVS that carried a nice variety of water and bought Poland Springs, and Voila he drank it and has been since 2014. It took me 3 weeks to find a water he would drink. I have maybe 10 gals in the house but with this virus now, I want to make sure he has enough for the long haul.

| I was concerned they might close what they think are non essential stores like the Pet stores so just good to be prepared.

| Everyone grabbed everything that had alcohol in it even the prep pads those of us with diabetes need to test our blood sugar or before shots and so on. People are being so selfish they don’t care what others need it’s all about them. The selfishness makes me so sick to my stomach. Also people are using gloves in the store then throwing them on the ground outside

| Is it crazy that we stocked up on their food, treats and meds before we bought a single thing for us? My babies are going to be just fine.

| I really didn’t think it was going to be that bad but when it started to get that way I got a bit worried but I would feed them my food if I had to.

| I just ordered two 6lb bags of Gidget's dog food. As long as it's not opened, it won't go bad. I'll just keep them stored and closed so I'll have them when needed. |

| my babies are all stocked up with their favorite treats and food. We have enough can and dry food to last about 4 months if necessary. |
