Dog Exercies Guide
Whenever you are near a road, or wherever your dog is likely to cause a nuisance if he runs free, you should keep him on a lead. Both you and your dog will be much happier if he’s well trained. Remember that not everyone is as fond of dogs as you are and you must respect their feelings. Keep your dog under control at all times. Part of your walk should take your dog over hard ground, as this will help to keep his nails short.
Don't make the mistake of over-exercising your dog if he’s still growing, as his bones aren’t yet strong enough to cope with the extra stress this puts on him. Little and often is the rule until your dog grows to full strength. Remember that large breeds mature later than small breeds. Ask the breeder or your vet for their advice.
Regular and varied walks are not just essential to keep your dog fit. They also give him the chance to explore and to experience new stimuli, including meeting other dogs. This will help him develop into a contented and well-adjusted dog, and avoid developing problem behaviour. Make sure you supervise all your dog’s exercise. Do not allow him to stray and never put him outside for the day to fend for him while you’re gone.
Remember that a good walk or run every day will keep your dog--and probably you, as well--in good shape, and will help stave off the problems of obesity. Medical and veterinary experts have observed that fat dogs often have overweight owners!epending on the breed, the best time to purchase a puppy is between 7-9 weeks of age. As soon as possible have the puppy examined by a veterinarian. If possible, ask the seller if you can have the puppy checked by a veterinarian before you purchase it.

Dealing With Seperation Anxiety In Your Dog
Many dogs have seperation anxiety when they are left alone.
You'll know if yours does if he was destructive while you were gone or if your neighbors tell you he barked all day. You can teach him to cope, while reassuring him that you will come back - both leading to much better behavior and a much happier dog.
Just like with his first "stay," make the session so short that he is able to succeed. Then, make each session a little longer. He will relate your keys, coat or p ...

Giving poochie a bath - no problem. You might even be ok sticking a tooth brush in Lassie’s mouth. But trimming doggie’s nails is never going to happen!
