3 Top Tips To Avoid Puppy Disasters

Of course, these tips are just the beginning. A complete training program that builds a bond between you and your pup is the key to a happy, well-behaved dog. Luckily, there are legitimate training methods and shortcuts that actually work. Over the years I have trained several hundred of pure and mixed breeds for obedience , general companionship,tracking and some rescue work.I have seen some great dogs with bad owners that didn’t know how to communicate with their dogs. I am writing these articles for two reasons. First , I am physically incapable of doing what I used to love to do …..dog training. Secondly I want to help educate the average dog owner on how to properly communicate and work with your future best friend…your buddy.
It doesn’t take long after working with your dog that a bonding does take place and they do become your best friend.Think about it. You have been at work all day, you are tired and you still have to fight the traffic to get home.The days of June Cleaver and the kids running to the door to greet you when you come home doesn’t happen anymore, but your best buddy greets you.It is indeed a genuine greeting too. A loss of your best friend is unnecessary and disastrous. After doing all that puppy research you bring him/her home from the breeder or you found the most adorable “pet” at the pound. Nevertheless the human emotional thinking kicks in and people decide to have a baby shower for him/her and the new furry friend is inundated with tons of toys. Everyone is excited as the newcomer squashes a toy that squeaks or shakes a toy containing bells that rattle.
ACTION…take all of these “unapproved” dog toys away right now and throw them out.I don’t know what the stats on puppy choking death is but I have witnessed the death of a dog, a yellow lab,choke to death due to a cute little toy containing a bell. The lab had chewed through the plastic toy exposing the bell only to choke to death a few hours later.So unnecessary!
I’ll go a little easier on you for the next tip.By following this next tip you will thank me over and over
You will save yourself hundreds if not thousands of dollars on vet bills by taking this initiative.At some point in time you are are going to have to do one or all of the following with your dog.You will want to take his temperature,give it medication,check or clean his teeth, regularly clip his toe nails,check ears for infection or bathe him after being sprayed by a skunk. Regardless of what task you are confronted with for the well-being of your pet,you do not want some snapping,squirming, uncooperative brat making your job next to impossible.
ACTION…..take quiet time with your dog EACH day.While both of you are lying on the floor, I want you to gently touch him all over.This does not have to be done in one session.You could start one day by touching him between his toes on his front paws.After you have been accepted for doing that say three days later touch him between his toes on the back feet.The end goal is for him to be ok with you putting your fingers in his mouth,his ears,his genital areas and so on.Finish off each days touching session with a light brushing as a reward.I don’t believe in giving food as a reward.Remember this is not a game and not a go-crazy session.You must always be in control. If he wants to play,you must discourage it.
Ok, last tip….like the first it deals with the safety of your dog.
This product if left for the dog to drink will mean almost instant death. Due to the sweetness of it, dogs love it and will drink it all up. Its called “anti-freeze” For people living in the colder climes, almost everyone has it lying around in their garage. The product is used to prevent water in your car’s hoselines from freezing.Often,a tray of anti-freeze is left on the garage floor after preparing your auto for the winter.
If this product is not put away into a container and properly labeled and sealed then you could be exposing your dog to a needless disaster.
As I mentioned to you before these simple little preparations of building a strong base with your dog will indeed save you a lot of aggravation and money.But if you are like me the money would mean absolutely nothing in order to save the life of my dog.To lose my dog over something that could have been prevented would haunt me forever.Thanks I hope I’ve helped someone.

The healthy dog food- Blue Buffalo Vs. Pedigree
Ever since the entry of the newcomer pet food brand, Blue Buffalo, the stand of giants in this field have become shaky. Even during the time when I didn’t have a pet, the only brand of dog food that I knew was Pedigree. Thanks to their catchy advertisements and their ubiquitous presence in every shopping market, once upon a time, ‘dog food was Pedigree and Pedigree was dog food’.
