WOW! Some do come with directions
Learning that some of the identical parent principles applied to children also hold true for our furry friends, is oftentimes quite a relief to those who may be a bit apprehensive about how to ensure that they have a friendly, courteous and well mannered canine who participates regularly with the family and those who visit your home.
Understanding that your dog, just like you, will require a place or space where he is able to relax without feeling the pressures of daily life. A quiet place where there is a bed or something that is safe and secure for the dog, perhaps a couple of toys or chew items and one that is comfortable. Everyone, including our dog, needs alone time, a space where the cares and worries of the day can drift away.
Think also about offering your dog consistent exercise and for those dogs that need a "job" find something that they are able to achieve successfully on a regular basis. This may be something as simple as carrying a tennis ball while you take your daily walks or jog.
Finally, remember that keeping your dog in top physical, mental and emotional health is of the utmost importance to both of you. A healthy dog is a happy dog.
