Why do puppy puzzles help tire your pup
out?

Puzzle toys are versatile and can not only slow down fast eaters but create mental exercise. They can be fun and stimulating, tiring the pet out by working the brain. About Dog Puzzles
15 minutes of mental exercise will tire your dog out just as much as a 30-minute walk, so a quick enrichment activity can go a long way! Interactive dog toys and puzzles are excellent for creating a positive outlet for your dog's natural chewing, digging, and hunting instincts. Puzzle toys can be a distraction for pets when left alone or entertainment when you need them occupied.

A drop-in visit is like a welfare check for your pet that may or may not include a walk as part of the visit. Pup may need medication at a certain time every day, Fluffy may need to eat a meal, and Jinx may just need some TLC and play time while you are away or at work.

Walking pups include a 30-60 minute walk a feeding and watering on arrival back home and any clean up mess pup might have made while you were away before or during my arrival.

Dogs are very sociable beings, and they need lots of company and stimulation to keep them happy. And we all know you dread that last sad look as you say goodbye to your pooch for the day! Hiring a dog walker can help provide the support and socialisation your dog needs, and break up the monotony of their day at home. Walking stimulates all of their senses, keeps them engaged, and helps them get used to being around other people and dogs – making them a safer and happier dog. Lol just ask Piper and Pablo! ❤️‍🩹😁

Is your furry one getting enough attention? 5 signs to tell

Life happens... Even the most devoted pet parent can get bogged down with running the kids to after-school activities, stressing out about work and just plan ole life... And when the stresses of life take over, sometimes the family dog is the one who suffers the most. So ask yourself this: Is my dog getting enough attention?

Sign 1:Furry one sleeps all the time

Dogs need mental stimulation and exercise to live a long, healthy life. The adage that we do not stop playing because we grow old, but we grow old because we stop playing holds true with our furry family members. If your furry one spends most of the day snoozing, it might mean your pup needs more attention. Set aside time every day for a special training session or some indoor playtime to boost their energy and strengthen your bond or head out for a good leisure walk together.

Sign 2: Depression

Yes diffently , pups can get the blues. Are u working 8 hrs per day and so tired u dont have the energy to give Fido the attention he really needs? Playing, walks or tummy rubs for your dog? Some pups depression symptoms include a disinterest in food or play, destructive behavior, no longer greeting you at the door and suddenly having household accidents. Get outside, go somewhere, and spend some quality time with the furry one or maybe even hire someone while u at work and then all u have to when u get home is just cuddle and snuggle with him/her when u get home.

Sign 3: Misbehaving

Sometimes a dog who is having emotional stress or feeling depressed will urinate and/or defecate in the house. If your dog suddenly starts having these symptoms, seek veterinary help to rule out any underlying medical condition. Bored dogs might also occupy themselves by chewing on furniture, digging in the garbage can or barking incessantly. If your dog suddenly shows signs of bad behavior, they likely need some attention.

Sign 4: weight gain

Even though they might want you to think otherwise, the way to a dog’s heart is definitely not through their stomach. Dogs are not able to freely use the refrigerator or dial a pizza delivery service. If your dog is overweight, it is a definitely a “you caused it” issue. Giving your dog extra dog treats should never be a substitute for spending quality time together. Monitoring your dog’s daily calorie intake is an essential part of being a good pet parent, so spend time making sure your pooch is getting the nutrition they need.

Sign 5: won't eat

If your dog stops eating, it’s a red flag that no pet parent should ignore. While a visit to the vet is essential in this instance to rule out physical problems, dogs that stop eating may be exhibiting emotional distress as well. Depression in dogs can lead to reduced appetite and signal that your dog is looking for more love in their life.

If you find that your furry baby has any of these signs it's time to either step up your game and give him/her some major love and quailty time or hire some outside help...just hiring a dog walker just once a day while you are at work will help with this majorly. 😁🤗💕

Tip: should dogs drink out of toilets? The answer is no... the toilet bowl contains toxics that can be very harmful to your fur baby and if your fur baby is on the smaller size he/she can drown.so if u love your furry one keep the toilet bowl shut when not in use 😉💕

Tip: Cat’s Noses are typically wet for picking up scents
Cats noses are typically wet,and they may even feel cool.The wetness of cat’s nose helps him pick up scents and determine where smells are coming from.This works similarly with dogs.

Tip: the irony about teaching dogs is that the faster you try to get results, the slower your progress will be. Take your time and you will achieve success sooner. And always remain calm patient and understanding and full of love ❤️

Brushing helps you bond with each other since most cats enjoy being brushed this is a great time to bond with your feline friend, some cats really enjoy the way it feels as well and bonus brushing your little fur baby gets rid of the cat mats😁👍

Fun fact did you know your cat rubs his head against you not only as a sign affection but to mark you as their territory they use the scent glands they have around their face the base of their tails and their paws to do so so 😁👍

How to avoid first night puppy crying...

Either take puppy up with you to bed for the first few weeks place puppy in a high sided box or crate then after pup gets used to sleeping in your room gradually move him to where you want him to sleep

Or.. sleep on a sofa with the puppy in a crate wait until puppy has stopped whining

Or... ignore all crying all together until pup stops crying.

Or...you can use home therapy hot water bottle blanket for warmth put in puppies bed

And make sure you do not go to puppy when he’s crying as he will associate this is crying for you’re coming to him be matter of fact.

Or if you can handle 2 pups get 2 pups at the same time as there will be no separation anxiety 😁👍
