Luxuries For Your Dog

Whether it's because they like to pamper their dogs or just because that's your lifestyle, there are many owners who spend plenty of money on them. These luxuries are often expensive and in some cases benefit your dog and are recommended, as are take to daycare if you can not take care of yourself. Others are luxuries for fun, like buying that coat your husky really do not need to spend the winter. What your dog needs is your time, your care and your love. But who says it's wrong to give an occasional luxury? If you can afford it, go for it!

The daycare.

In day care are responsible for walking your dog two or three times a day, take care and spend time with dogs. If you want, and usually for an additional fee, they can pick up your dog and take him back home and take care of bathing, give a good haircut or a new look. The benefits of sending your dog to daycare are palpable: he is socialized with other dogs, play, eat, sleep and enjoy. Is the life you deserve. It goes so well that only rejoices arrived. It is a luxury and can be as expensive as you take your child to a private nursery. On the other hand, if you can spend time with your dog or if you go on vacation, you can be the best option for your pet.

The dog school.

A luxury I consider essential, since the benefits you get when you enroll your dog in a dog school last for many years. If you are interested in dog sports, a good place to start is at school. Your dog can learn agility, tracking and many other sports. There are basic command classes also teach you how to care for your dog, from how to potty train out to how to train him not to pull the strap. It is very important that you take your dog to a school where only use positive reinforcement. The funny thing about this is that you will give the dog a treat when he does something good, which will make him want to keep doing it.

The spa.

Dogs also deserve a good massage. In the spa be bathed with special shampoo, cut her hair and nails pampered and properly. The canine grooming is essential to the health of your dog, but the spas carry this to the next level, giving all possible pampering your dog, for a hefty price, of course.

Hes on vacation.

Although there are several types of vacations you can take with your dog, do not recommend you take him by plane unless unavoidable. By plane, depending on the breed and size, you have to be willing to invest in the cost of travel and breed restrictions. The journey may be long and stressful for your dog and it is possible that the airline will not let you on the plane. Better do a road trip, taking breaks every half hour or so. There are many hotels that accept pets. Find out before you take it.

Clothing or items chic.

There is a huge industry that produces items for dogs, mostly very nice, from Burberry coats to bags of Louis Vuitton to carry your yorkie when traveling take him. Many of these items do not need your dog, but if you like going to fashion it may be normal to want your dog to go according to your own style. Whenever you buy will not bother the dog, nor stopping play, go to the bathroom or move, spend as you like.

Dog training?, Yes or Not?

I know that there are many animal rights sticking winced when they hear the word training or trainer, who do not like anything. I am one who thinks so, it's good to train the dogs provided it is done using positive reinforcement, never punishment. A dog must obey for the sake of pleasing and not by fear. And especially being always you who adiestres your dog. That left the dog in the wrong hands would never recommend.

I have a dog training ideas without being no expert. My thing has always been ethology (study of animal behavior, their psychology) that is something that is closely related to the training. A good trainer will always be a connoisseur of canine ethology, although she has learned instinctively. Obviously, training a dog is not essential, but it is to teach some minimum standards of behavior. Some dogs, almost by themselves, learn to behave properly, to not pull on the leash, not to dig in the trash, not to eat things off the ground, not to jump on people ... others however it gets tougher. In any case, all dogs can be taught.

And if anyone in Madrid whose courses I recommend is Bocalán Foundation. I know them well and understand the positive training, are most pointer that can be found in Spain, love animals and constantly strive for people with different types of disabilities can have a furry companion to facilitate their existence.

Just opened the registration period for a dog training course of six months, so if you are interested in learning and availability, do not hesitate. I wish I had time.

Energy as Dogs Way Communication

Dogs constantly use energy to communicate. Energy is that what I call "existence", is who and what you are at every moment. Dogs do not know each other by name, but by the energy they project and the activities they share. Likewise known in humans.

As humans, we also communicate with energy, we realize it or not. And, even if we try to persuade, explain and rationalize all day, these energy signals are the only messages that will reach our dogs.

The first energy experiencing a puppy after birth is quiet-firm energy from his mother. Later, the puppy will by association to a pack leader to project the same quiet-firm energy. As followers of the pack, the dogs return a calm-submissive energy to complete the balance of the pack. It is important to understand that most dogs are born submissive, because there can be many pack leaders.

When a naturally submissive dog lives with a human who leads, try to correct the balance of the pack filling the gap left by the lack of a leader, according to their interpretation. This is how behavior problems begin.

To nurture you as the pack leader, you must project a calm-firm energy constantly. If you do not understand what I mean by quiet-firm energy, think of Oprah Winfrey. She is a calm and firm in the human world. This natural balance (quiet, firm leadership with calm-submissive behavior) promotes stability and creates a dog balanced, focused and happy.

Hygiene and care for dogs in the street

The street is where our dog passes it better, but also where the biggest risks to your health. It is therefore appropriate to take some precautions.

Of course, it is not walking the dog locked in a bubble. Just have to check some details, which can be done easily without having to devote excessive attention. The walk must be a pleasurable activity for both dog and master, and if you pay attention, avoid problems. On the other hand, the following tips are easy to follow list, and eventually becoming an unconscious attitude on our part, so that they do not require a great effort. Consider:
In newly weaned pups (which usually means newly acquired) must avoid the walk and contact with other dogs until your vet has put them their first batch of vaccine, at least. It is a period in which your body has virtually no defenses.

Possible sources of disease transmission are the stools of other dogs. The urine and feces of other dogs will be as "healthy" as the dog that has occurred. Because obviously we can not know the state of that other dog, avoid risks. Put simply: remove the dog's habit of poking around.

Is difficult. Instinctively sniffs dog urine and stools, as they give very many details about the other animal. In principle, that's no problem sniffed. What must be avoided is the tendency to lick. This can be achieved in most cases "punishing" the first lick. Anyway, if your dog is male and urine smells a female in heat, no education worth and away the dog must be by force.

Worse still are the garbage. Never poke you must stop them. In this case, the risk of dogs is not greater than in the previous case, but if it is for the people. Hydatid disease is a parasitic disease that the dog is not affected, while only transports the parasites at a time of their life cycle, but then it infects people, to which can be fatal. Besides garbage, the dog can ingest parasites through feces of another infected dog, so we're back to the previous case.

In the city, the dog should always be tied. It's not just a matter of fulfilling legal ordinances (which requires). It is only if the dog will be able to act quickly tied by a tug on the leash, to take away from garbage, feces, etc., and to prevent the dog from running out if something catches your eye (a cat, another dog, a child playing ...) and avoid accidents. Recall that if the dog was loose and jumps and crosses the street and is hit, the blame will not be on anyone but us.

Instinctively, adult male dog will tend to fight with other males, and attempting to mount any female that will allow. A female, despite being less aggressive, may also want to peel with other females, and if she is in heat, a male standing heat. Only if they can control tied them immediately. For these situations occur (for some reason could not be avoided), this is what you should do:

Fight: We must take courage and try to separate them. If one of the two animals is very less, shall be submitted promptly and no further problems. But as both are dominant, the fight is "all out" and can end badly.

Monta: There is nothing to do. We have to wait for them to finish and separate themselves. The reason is that, for anatomical circumstances, the male can not leave until it's over. If you try to separate them by force is a very high risk of causing permanent damage to both the male (affecting their reproductive) and the female (from tears, to break the pelvic bone).

In a female in heat, limit the ride to the minimum time necessary. This only lasts a few days, and avoids the risk of unwanted mounts occur, not to mention that they will pursue all dogs and can end shies away.

If we take the dog to a park where there is grass and you can let loose, do not forget, when we get back home, make a small review for ticks. You have to do this too if you are playing with other dogs.
