Does your dog want to join in with everything?

Dogs are part of the family so you may want to include them in everything but some things would do more harm than good. When using sparklers it is often dark and your dog may naturally follow you outside but you could trip over them, making your dog a potential fire hazard...be careful 😅

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL HUMANS AND THEIR FURRY FRIENDS! 🐶🤗🎄

22/12/2022

Dogs can get very excitable at Christmas as things are not normally this busy and loud. Also, there may be treats or objects that your dog would love to get their paws on but it's not safe for them to do so.

Here is one to look out for - chocolate decorations on your tree
These can easily fall on the floor and be hoovered up by your dog. Chocolate is poisonous to dogs so best to eat them all so they don't get a chance, or place them elsewhere out of reach!

You're not a proper dog owner if you don't get your dog a present for Christmas - FACT.

Whether it's fancy dog treats or a Christmas jumper they need to have a gift to open on Christmas! Have you done your doggy Christmas shopping?

As we get closer to New Year's Eve, the threat of fireworks will be soon upon us. Many dogs are frightened of fireworks and you may experience changes in their behaviour.

Here are a couple of tips to distract your dog:
- Keep them calm by giving them a long-lasting dog chew
- Keep the TV or radio on in the room they are in as this drowns out some noise
- Don't confine your dog to one room, let them have free rein to find their safe place.

If you don't sign your dog's name at the end of your Christmas cards are you even a dog owner? 🎄🐶😎

“When dogs are actually looking at you, they’re essentially hugging you with their eyes.”

- Brian Hare

When we have cold hands or feet we layer up, so you should do the same for your dog. You might struggle to put boots on your dog as it's not something that feels natural to them, a good tip is to try Vaseline or paw balm on there little feet during the winter!

This will help with hydration and protect their paws from extreme cold and salt which causes their paws to dry out and crack.

Is your dog a stick or ball kind of fetcher?

Some dogs love a ball to be thrown and others like sticks when playing fetch, it can be down to your dog's personality but often it is due to the breed. Springer Spaniels and Labradors love to play fetch and carry things as that's how they were bred.

“They [dogs] never talk about themselves but listen to you while you talk about yourself, and keep up an appearance of being interested in the conversation.”

These days many pet owners will take their dog to a dog groomer but there may be times where you need to groom your dog at home. It's important to know what type of fur your dog has so that if you do wash and brush your pooch you know that you are using the right tools and products.

What type of fur does your dog have and does it match your own hair type? 🐶😄

Each and every dog has its own little quirks but when you have 2 dogs together...it's a completely different ball game. There always seems to be a sweet one who doesn't put a paw wrong, and a troublemaker who causes all sorts of mischief! 😇😈

What are your thoughts on owning 2 dogs? 😂

“Dogs are our link to paradise. They don’t know evil or jealousy or discontent. To sit with a dog on a hillside on a glorious afternoon is to be back in Eden, where doing nothing was not boring–it was peace.”

- Milan Kundera

If you take your dog on a familiar walk where they know not to go near the river or lake it's a completely different story if the water is frozen. Your dog may suddenly try to cross it or jump in which can be dangerous, even if it's cold enough for the water to freeze it won't be hard enough to support your dog's weight.

If you are concerned about your dog doing this, put your dog on a leash when they are near a body of water it's always best to be cautious.

As dog owners, we speak to our dogs as if they can fully understand us...😅
Some things they might understand like 'walk' and 'treat' but having a full on conversation with them would prove to be difficult.

If your dog could speak to you, what 3 questions would you ask them?

If we all had a tail, we would be wagging it very fast as it's Friday today! This means you have the whole weekend to cuddle, play and walk your pooch 🐶

“In times of joy, all of us wished we possessed a tail we could wag.”

- W.H. Auden

Socialising your dog when it's a puppy will help them understand how the world works, it also will help shape your dog in a healthy way to bring out their best personality traits.

It's important that they get used to adults and children as well as other dogs as you want your dog to feel comfortable in either company. You can do this by setting up dog play dates with a friend's dog and attending puppy classes.

Walking your dog is not only great for your mental health but your physical health too, and your dog's of course.

There are some downsides to walks, our furry friends often find the dirtiest, muddiest and wettest places to go, wouldn't you agree? 😅

Dogs would wait forever for us, they are so loyal🥲

“There’s just something about dogs that makes you feel good. You come home, they’re thrilled to see you. They’re good for the ego.”

Did you know that you can make a tug toy for your dog out of old clothes?

If you are about to throw out a couple of raggy t-shirts - don't! Use them to create a tug toy that you and your dog can use together. Cut the t-shirts into strips, gather them together and do a big knot at one end. Then divide the strips into 3 lots so that you can braid them, do this until you reach the end. Once you've done this, do another big knot as you did at the beginning, and then ENJOY!

It's time to take your dog out for a walk, so what we want to know is...what word or phrase do you say to your dog?

If it's not 'WALKIES!?', then you're wrong! 😂
