Oh My Dog

Did you know that when a dog becomes overweight, it doesn’t just lead to joint issues? It opens the door to several other health problems like increased chances of diabetes, cancer, and even skin issues. Overweight dogs often experience a decline in their quality of life because their bodies aren’t built to handle the extra weight. As dog parents, we sometimes let our emotions take over—feeding treats and extra food, thinking they’re hungry. But remember, many dogs are food motivated, which makes them prone to weight gain if we don’t control their portions. Let’s take responsibility and focus on keeping our dogs healthy by managing their weight. If you need help, join our free chat community, The Pack!

Did you know that nervous dogs are more prone to digestive issues? When a dog feels scared or stressed, their intestines contract. This happens because, from an evolutionary perspective, when a dog senses danger, their body prepares for a fight-or-flight response. To conserve energy, blood flow to the digestive system is reduced, causing the intestines to shrink. This can lead to constipation, diarrhea, or even vomiting. It's the body's way of redirecting resources to muscles and other critical areas for survival. This natural process isn’t limited to dogs; humans experience it too—ever felt the sudden urge to use the bathroom when you're really anxious? If your dog gets nervous often, keep an eye out for these signs and help them feel calm. 💡 Did you find this information helpful? Let me know in the comments! 🐾👇

Behavioral issues in dogs are a common challenge, and there's one thing that stands out in almost every case: People try to train their dogs, but it doesn’t seem to work. Why? Because training isn't just about commands; it's about understanding your dog. Imagine a person who hasn’t had their basic needs met—frustration builds up, and if you try to explain things to them, chances are they'll lash out. The same happens with dogs. They get frustrated, insecure, or nervous when their needs aren’t fulfilled. Here are the 3 basic needs of every dog: 🐾 Exercise: Long walks (2-3 times daily) are a must. Dogs cooped up at home develop frustration and behavioral issues. Let them move! 🐾 Discipline: Discipline isn’t about yelling or scolding. Simple obedience training like “sit,” “stay,” or “come” practiced daily calms their mind and builds confidence. 🐾 Love & Patience: Never lose patience with your dog. Remember, they only have you. When you provide love and patience, you’ll see them blossom with happiness. Let’s shift our focus from just training dogs to truly understanding them. What do you think? Should we prioritize understanding our dogs over teaching them? Comment below and let’s discuss! ❤️🐶

🚨 Must-Read Before Buying Dog Treats! 🚨 These treats may have 5,500 reviews with a 4.3-star rating, but the ingredients are shocking and downright harmful for your dog! Here's the truth about what's inside: ❌ Cereals & by-products – Grain-filled junk that's a recipe for allergies. ❌ Chicken & by-products – Low-quality, leftover meat scraps. ❌ Meat & by-products – Poor-quality fillers with no nutritional value. ❌ Sugar – Seriously, sugar for dogs? ❌ Glycerol, Soybean Oil, Salt – Gut-destroying and immune system-damaging additives. 💡 Just because it’s cheap and popular doesn’t mean it’s good!

🐾 Dog का Health Scale: BCS (Body Condition Score) 1-9 Explained! 🐾 क्या आप जानते हैं कि अपने dog की health को सिर्फ weight से नहीं मापा जा सकता? इसके लिए हमें Body Condition Score (BCS) का इस्तेमाल करना चाहिए। ये 1 से 9 तक का scale है, जो बताता है कि आपका dog underweight, healthy, या overweight है। आइए इसे समझते हैं: - BCS 1-3: Too Thin (Underweight) - BCS 1: Ribs, pelvic bones, और बोंस बहुत ज़्यादा दिखते हैं। Zero fat और muscle loss भी होती है। - BCS 2: Ribs easily visible हैं, minimal muscle mass। Fat बिलकुल नहीं। - BCS 3: Ribs easily feel होते हैं, हल्का visible fat। Muscle mass थोड़ा कम हो सकता है। - BCS 4-5: Ideal (Healthy Weight) - BCS 4: Ribs easily feel होते हैं, पर visible नहीं। Proper fat coverage है। - BCS 5: Perfect shape!

Have you heard about Ashwagandha? 🌿 This powerful Ayurvedic herb is well-known for reducing stress and improving health in humans. But guess what? Scientists thought, if it’s so helpful for humans, could it work for dogs too? 🐾 To test this idea, a 4-week study was conducted with 24 dogs divided into two groups: 1️⃣ One group received Ashwagandha supplements. 2️⃣ The other group got a placebo (a dummy treatment with no active ingredients). And here's the kicker—this was a double-blind study, meaning neither the scientists nor the dog parents knew which dog got what. No room for bias, just pure science! 🧪 The Results? Dogs who took Ashwagandha showed lower stress levels, measured scientifically through their urine cortisol test (cortisol is a stress hormone). This proved that Ashwagandha can safely help dogs feel calmer without side effects! 🎉 💡 Dosage Tip: It’s recommended to start with 15mg per kg of your dog’s weight. For example, a 10kg dog can take 150mg. 👉 But don’t rush! Start slow, as too much can cause constipation. Ashwagandha could be a game-changer for reducing your pup’s stress naturally. 🐶✨ Would you try this for your dog? Let us know! 👇

Struggling with Resource Guarding? 🐾 Here's the Solution! Resource guarding happens because we unknowingly create gaps in our relationship with our dog from the start. For example, when a dog takes something, we often snatch it away, which in their world is a sign of disrespect. Over time, this behavior teaches them to growl as a defense mechanism. If we back off when they growl, it reinforces their guarding instincts. 😬 So, how do we fix this? ✅ Step 1: Understand your dog’s behavior and needs. Are you meeting their physical and mental requirements? ✅ Step 2: Avoid snatching. Learn respectful ways to ask for items back. ✅ Step 3: Identify the mistakes you're making and create a strategy to address them. At The Pack Platform, we provide lifelong free support to help you tackle resource guarding and build a healthy bond with your dog. 🐕✨ Comment "Pack" below, and we’ll send you the link to join. 💬 Let’s create a respectful and happy relationship with your dog today! ❤️
