Marsh hall Kennel provides security for companies, factories, go downs, theatres, apartments, banks, commercial complex, homes and hotels. Marshall Kennel also caters to old age homes for dogs, boarding/ hostel (while you're on a holiday), training, stud service and maintenance. Marshall Kennel has pups for sale, pet accessories, pet medicines, pet food, pet cosmetics and pet vaccines. I have heard good reviews from pet owners and have personally visited their stall at an exhibition. They have a pet black Labrador who is very well looked after. If you're a genuine dog from Vizag or neighbouring town/ city, and looking for a pet dog, then this is the place to go.
2. Babu's Pet's World
ANU Avicultural Farms and Coastal Kennels
Address:
Spencer's Hyper Market,
Behind LB College,
Resapuvanipalem,
Vizag.
Phone: +91-9348133777
They also have a branch at:
Babu's Pet World
Old Jail Road
Opp. Vidyardhi College
Vizag.
They provide pups, bantams, love birds, turkeys, African love birds, rabbits and guinea fowl.
This pet store also provides imported bird cages.
I have personally visited this store which is right outside the Spencer's outlet, next to the entrance. Its quite a pitiful condition the way the pups are kept, they look sad. A person who is fond of dogs will know immediately whether he/ she should pick up a dog/ bird from here. I leave the decision up to my readers. However, you may check the other brand on Old Jail Road.

Pets> Care for Older Pets
Text by: Tanya Munshi
The love for your pets should never reduce even when they are old. When they’re young, pets romp and play all day long, giving you much-needed companionship. Hence, it’s our turn to give them our love and support during their old age.
What Happens During Old Age
Gradually, with age, our pets’ metabolism rate slows down. In simpler terms, an older pet is not as active as compared to a younger pet. Thus, during old age, their desire to fetch, run and romp reduces due to aches and pains. Poor eyesight (cataract and glaucoma), hearing troubles, and arthritis are some of the major health problems afflicting old pets.
Care For An Older Pet
~ Controlling your pet’s weight is of primary importance. By controlling its body weight, you can prevent its chances of getting arthritis and other health disorders.
~ Preferably feed it home-cooked food. Home-cooked food should be light as it will help your pet digest food better.
~ Regularly check your pet for ticks and fleas. At old age, their resistance to fight this menace reduces and they fall prey to skin infections.
~ Ensure you get your pet vaccinated regularly to keep his immune system robust.
~ Ask your vet for any diet supplements like calcium, in the form of toffees or chewies.
Daily Routine For An Older Pet
~ Ensure your pet gets its daily dose of exercise, but don’t overdo it. Exercises such as playing in the park or walking up the stairs boost blood circulation in the body, thereby keeping it fit.
~ For instance, for a dog, ensure he gets his daily walk. If he gets tired, don’t force him to walk more.
~ Cats on the other hand play with toys and get their exercise.
~ Brush your dog’s teeth daily. This will prevent it from getting any dental problems.
~ Keep a tab on your pet’s behavior, eating habits, temperaments etc. Any change noticed should be informed to the vet immediately.
