Emotional Dogs

As a dog lover we all would like our dogs to be happy and satisfied with its surroundings. However this is not always possible, since just like humans they can also develop emotional disorders. I am not sure if this is due to spending a lot of time with humans that they catch this attribute or if it’s something natural for dogs. The emotional disorder can become highly visible for dogs that have been with their owners since they were a puppy. Due to the long time the dog has spent with the owner it would show signs of emotional disorder in the absence of its owner. Dogs can become sad or frustrated and in some instances they may also get angry. On the other hand dogs can be excited of certain situations. For example, when the owner comes home, dogs get very excited, they can also show excitement when they know that you are going to take them out for play.

While all dogs have emotions, the type and the intensity of emotions will vary. A major differentiation would be the difference in emotions between the male dogs and the female dogs. One of the most difficult emotions to deal with is anxiety or frustration, as this can easily become a life sentence for your dog. To get rid of this you will need to spend more time with your dog, doing a lot of exercise and fun activities, helping your dog to see the brighter side of life. If your dog is sad even you, as an owner would not be able to enjoy its company. You will always see a lack of activity on your dog’s part. Now, buying a horse insurance will not help your pet, but in this situation it is also good to let your dog mingle with other dogs. At the end of the day if your dog is happy then you as a dog lover will also be extremely satisfied.

Puppy Rules

Getting a pup home can be a great source of joy for the entire family, especially if one is staying alone. But there are a few precautionary actions that one needs to take before and while getting a pup home. These will ensure that ground rules are set, right from the beginning for you as the pet’s owner and for the new family member.

One of the cardinal rules of pup intake is, never adopt a baby before 42 days. That is the minimum time that the pup needs with its mother for feeding, and snatching it away before this time could lead to irrational behavior and deformed growth for the baby. This whining period will allow the pup to remain healthy throughout its life.

On the first night, the pup is bound to feel lonely and miss his siblings and mother. Try and get a cloth piece or Nyla bone for the puppy and keep it in his crater or basket. The cloth should be the piece that carries the smell of his littermates and mother and this will provide great comfort to the baby during the initial days of settling in his new home.

Naming the puppy as soon as possible is very important and the name should be such that it is clearly audible. It should be longer than the one syllable as it is then easier for the pup to hear it and intake it clearly. Whenever you are petting, playing or fondling the dog, keep repeating the name for the pup to adapt to his name immediately.

One must not bathe the dog for at least four months. One must also not tie the dog with body belts etc. before the age of three years; this kind of tying could lead to deformed organ formation or severe growth deficiencies in some organs of the canine.

The other important aspect that one must immediately attend to upon adoption of a pup is its toilet training. Dogs tend to excrete or urinate at the same spot often because they associate the smell with the place. Therefore always wash the spot with caustic soda if you don’t want the dog to do it in the same place again. There are visible signs of discomfort that one must watch out, in the dog just before it wants to urinate or pass stool. Immediately rush the pet to the toilet and make this a habit right from the beginning. A lapse on this even once can ruin the toilet training habit for the baby.

Occasionally take the pup out for a stroll and let him see other stray dogs. This will prevent your baby from barking unnecessarily once it grows up upon seeing other dogs.

Always ensure your pup has had the necessary vaccinations and injections before any training is started. It is important the pup has been examined by the vet before it is adopted or upon adoption to avoid any growth related secrets or behavioral deficiencies.

Owing a pup is as good and as demanding as bringing up your own baby. Patience holds the key to success here as well. However, it is till easier to bring up a puppy than a horse and you do not have to worry about issues like horse insurance.
