Our Site Can Take Orders Now

Today we are happy to announce that the new site is up and running (though parts of it is still under construction so if you run into a category with no products we are still working on getting those loaded).

Right now, I want to introduce you to our Soft Mesh Harnesses.  These are the perfect harnesses for small and medium sized dogs.  They are very comfortable for your dog and ergonomically built to fit your dog properly. Your dog will be more at ease and it will make walking your dog even better.



It isn't good for your dog's neck to hook a leash to the collar and walk them that way.  Over time, your dog will have neck pain and potential medical issues because the leash/collar combination pulls on the neck and puts undesired pressure on the neck and throat area when the dog is walking.  A harness is a much safer solution and will help your dog have better physical health because it is designed to take the pressure off the neck and distribute it evenly in the stronger parts of the dogs body.  A harness is the way to go when attaching a leash to any dog.



Our Soft Mesh Harnesses are even more comfortable than most standard harnesses because they are comfort padded and have more coverage allowing the harness to distribute pressure/pulling even better to allow for healthier walk.  The fabric is breathable to allow for cooling so they don't get too hot.  We have plain Soft Mesh Harnesses as well as very cute designs for both male and female dogs.

Get To Know The Pack: Now Introducing Vicious

Meet our only feathered member of the pack - Vicious.  Vicious is a Peach-faced Love Bird that Judi, a very special friend of the family, rescued.  Our family adopted Vicious and have been working to socialize him.  We often get laughs when we say we  have a Love Bird named Vicious - but Vicious can be just that.  He loves to let you pet him and then will unexpectedly bite you as hard as he can.  Crystal is the only one that has been able to truly earn his trust so far and she plays with him everyday so he gets the exercise and attention he needs to be healthy.

When Vicious first came to our home, he was timid and afraid of everything.  No one could touch him without leather gloves on their hands because he would bite and claw at anyone that tried to touch him.  Once his beak and nails were trimmed, he still threw a huge fit almost to the point of injuring himself any time someone tried to interact with him.  Crystal made it her personal mission to get Vicious to trust her and set training goals to reach.  Her first goal was to get him to let her touch him in the cage; then to sit on her finger in the cage; and then to sit on her finger outside of the cage and so on...

It took over a year for Vicious to quit being so mean and to start trusting Crystal.  Today, Vicious loves to give Crystal kisses and sit on top of her head.  He sings all the time and is getting more adventurous in the things he will try.  He still has some trust issues with other people but he is starting to warm up to the rest of the family and has nothing but love to give going forward (and an occasional bite).  He is happy and healthy and that is what matters most.

Vicious inspired our family business because he is very picky in what he eats and what he will play with.  Since he has trust issues Vicious requires a lot of work in order to continue to earn and keep his trust so that he can be socialized.  These experiences have taught our family many things about Love Birds and we hope to continue learning more and sharing our knowledge with our customers.  In addition, Vicious is so full of love and joy now that he is in a non-abusive environment and this inspired us to do more "pay it forward" actions throughout our day.  He brings happiness to our home through his "song" (some just call it squawking) and because he has brought us so much joy, we want to pay that action forward and help others when we can.

At Jack's Pack Pet Planet, we love to hear inspiring stories about how you have practiced "pay it forward" in your life.  If you have an inspiring story to share, please Email us at talktous@jackspackpetplanet.com and we may share your story on our website in our "pay it forward" gallery (coming soon!).
