			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As reported by Leslie Mann in a recent Tribune article <a href="http://tiny.cc/07ml1">http://tiny.cc/07ml1</a> many Chicago Buildings are going out of their way to put “friendly” into pet-friendly living.  Most estimates have the percentage of pet households in the United States at 60%+, that equals a lot of people and a lot of pets.  As a country, we spend $45 billion a year on our animals and that number is expected to rise by 5 percent this year, according to Fast Company magazine. It’s become a common site to see a large van wrapped in pet aimed advertisements parked in front of condo buildings to pick up and entertain our pouches while we’re gone for the day and to return them at the end of the day.</p>
<p>Dog care has become big business in Chicago.  Some trainers are now specializing in working with specific behavioral problems and will come to your home to help with what ever the issue may be. Dog trainer <strong>Fran Barry of gofidogoodfido.com</strong> says that business is good due in part to the large number of households with dogs. She goes on to say that although people tend to treat their pets like children, dog owners don’t understand that a dog’s thinking processes are drastically different than humans however most dog’s behavior problems can be resolved with the help of a professional trainer.</p>
