Dog parent tips from your local trainer 🐾
1️⃣ Set healthy boundaries with your dog early on…like how jumping for attention is not how your dog gets attention, instead teach sit and then your dogs reward will be petting and that’s how they receive the affection they desire.
2️⃣ Provide them with enough mental and physical stimulation required for their breed standard to maintain a healthy and balanced mind and body for your dog. This can be done through training, exercise and other stimulation activities.
3️⃣ Feed your dog a well balanced diet and please invest in your dogs food. Just like humans, what you put in your dogs body matters. Read the ingredients in your dogs kibble, consider the appropriate amount of protein your dog needs and consider adding a topper for your dogs meal like puree pumpkin or refrigerated dog food.
4️⃣ Research and talk to your vet to see if there could be any beneficial vitamins or supplements that would be good for your dog. My dogs get a joint supplement due to their breeds and ages for example.
Take time to learn about what your dog needs based on their breed and build your relationship with them on a balance of mutual respect and love.
