Empathy it’s not a learn to behavior. It is cognitive and comes with brain development. So don’t trust your toddler not to pull a tail and don’t trust your dog to not react in pain. #Dogs#dog#PuppyLove
Hot outside but need to walk your dog? Get his digestive system going before you even go out the door. Activity kickstarts metabolism. play fetch or get him to chase you through the house before you leave. Prime up that digestive system BEFORE you walk out the door.
Dogs are not impressed by scenery but they can be distracted by too many distractions.
If you are having this issue, I highly recommend finding an empty parking lot and letting your dog explore in peace. #dog#PuppyLove
Is life getting busy and you still need to walk the dog? 3 ten minute sniff walks a day may be more schedule friendly than trying to find a 30 minute window. Bonus, the spaced out walks will help your dog regulate his energy throughout the day.
If you haven’t seen many dogs or other people during your winter walks. You might need to do a little bit of spring maintenance to remind your dog that other people and other dogs equal good things. #dogs#PuppyLove
