(33)

With me your pet will have all the attention it needs and many happy moments! While it's not always easy to bring our furry companions everywhere we go, it's essential to prioritize self-care and indulge in a little travel. Entrust your beloved pet to someone who recognizes their significance in your life, providing them with the love and attention they deserve. Your pet becomes part of my home du

ring your absence, following the familiar routine they're accustomed to for a seamless transition. I tailor my care to match your pet's schedule, ensuring a smooth and efficient adaptation. You'll receive daily updates on your little one's well-being, maintaining a strong connection throughout your time apart. With years of experience in animal care and a background as a biologist, I've been surrounded by pets of all shapes and sizes – from tiny hamsters to large dogs. What they all share is a need for love, and that's precisely what I provide! Let your pet enjoy a home away from home filled with care, compassion, and a lifetime of experience. 🏡🐾

When we love what we do, everyone can see that🙏🏻 Gratitude Lori for your kind words, it means the world to me knowing that I can make your pets happy while you're away♥️ See you next month Bella😍😘

We had our baby Bella stay with Leticia while we were in the Azores this past week, and she was so wonderful taking videos and pictures and keeping us updated while we were away. I highly recommend Leticia as a dog sitter- she is so knowledgeable and caring. 😄

April 4th is World Street Animal Day!

The initiative was spearheaded by Dutch organizations with the noble aim of mitigating the plight of abandoned animals. Though not formally recognized, numerous organizations globally seize the occasion to shed light on the staggering reality of approximately 600 million homeless animals worldwide.

Street dogs and cats are innocent victims, thrust into their circumstances through no fault of their own. Abandoned by their owners, born into the harsh realities of the streets, or simply lost, they endure a life of hardship. Often malnourished, they brave extreme weather conditions and suffer from various illnesses. Subjected to persecution by hostile individuals, they face violence and danger daily. They did not choose this life, yet they must endure it – tragically, for many, it becomes their untimely demise!

Promoting adoption campaigns, supporting NGOs that take in abandoned animals or even choosing to adopt an animal are acts of love and citizenship that also contribute to the quality of the environment and human health.

Share here if you have already adopted an animal and what action you can take to help with this cause!

Hello paws! I'm baby Seamus, even though I'm already 8 years old. I'm small and extremely docile, I love a good nap and playing with my monkey friend.🐵 Like a good Chihuahua, I tremble for no reason and my giant eyes get even brighter when I see a good treat.👀

Sempre tive objeções às coleiras do tipo colar, não há nada mais seguro para os pets que um bom peitoral na medida certa. Leiam com atenção!🤓

MITO - um peitoral ensina o cão a puxar a trela

VERDADE - a única coisa que ensina um cão a puxar a trela são as consequências

O teu cão aprende a puxar com base no que acontece depois de ele puxar e não pelo material que está a usar. 

Se ele aprender que ao puxar consegue aproximar-se do que quer, ele será recompensado por puxar e repetirá esse comportamento no futuro.

Se as coleiras só por si evitassem que os cães puxassem, não encontraríamos tantos cães na rua a puxar com coleira no pescoço….

Afinal, o problema está no método ou no equipamento? Definitivamente, não é no equipamento...
Contudo, mesmo que queiram ensinar um cão a andar com a trela solta com coleira, nunca é boa ideia usar uma coleira.

Vou vos dar algumas razões ⏩

▶️ um cão sempre que puxa uma coleira à volta do pescoço perde o equilíbrio e por isso tem que usar o seu humano para se equilibrar, puxando para trás contra ele

A pressão no pescoço:

▶️ restringe a respiração 

▶️ reduz o oxigênio que chega ao cérebro 

▶️ aumenta a ansiedade e a reatividade 

▶️ reduz a capacidade de aprender

▶️ e ainda pode causar danos no pescoço, na coluna e tecidos moles da garganta ao puxar uma coleira com força

A primeira coisa que precisas de fazer, se queres ensinar um cão a andar com trela solta é tirar essa pressão no pescoço! Um bom peitoral tira toda a pressão do pescoço, usando o peito e costas.
Existem diferentes tipos de peitorais, em breve falarei sobre esse tema.

Do universo das respostas que a sondagem teve em relação à afirmação: “O peitoral faz com que o cão aprenda a puxar a trela. [peitoral versus coleira]

⏩ 32% respondeu “Sim”

⏩ 68% respondeu “Não”

Nós podemos decidir pelo melhor do nosso cão, ele não pode...

Sê o melhor guardião ❤️

🇮🇹The Corso's lineage goes back to ancient Roman times, and the breed's name roughly translates from the Latin as 'bodyguard dog. As with any other big guardian dog, responsible breeding and early socialization with people and other dogs is vital.
💡Remember that this is just a generalization of each breed, the behavior and longevity of your pet will depend on how you raise and educate it.
🤗Even though these are purebred dogs, you may find them in the care of shelters or rescue groups. Always give preference to adopt!

Join us in this immersive event that connects people, nature, furry friends and music. The first concert will be held in front of the Quinta do Covelo Canine Park.

"Música entre Espécies Companheiras" is a series of concerts conceived and performed for, and with, dogs, their human companions and other more-than-human presences that want to join these sessions.
Curated by Lovers & Lollypops, the monthly concert cycle will run until the end of the year and will feature an eclectic list of guests.
Inspired by Donna J. Haraway's Companion Species Manifesto and scientific studies of dogs' inclination towards sound and music, the concerts will take into account the unique sensibilities and hearing abilities of these animals, through the knowledge of canine hearing experts.

🥰Happy, steady, and self-confident, the Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier is alert enough to be a good watchdog, but too friendly to back up his warning barks. He's highly people-oriented and loves kids, and his moderate size and exercise needs mean he fits well into most homes.

🐻‍❄️With compact bodies, baby-doll faces, and fluffy white hair, Bichons are a very appealing breed whose looks are enhanced by a perky, good-natured disposition. Because they don't shed like other breeds, Bichons often are recommended for people with allergies.

The end of the year is synonymous of parties, but always remember to cherish your pet's well-being. Dogs have much more sensitive hearing than we do, and bright flashes of light can increase stress and anxiety.

🇺🇸The Boston Terrier may have been bred to be a ferocious pit-fighter, but you'd never know it today. The little American Gentleman, as he was called in the 19th century, is definitely a lover, not a fighter!
🎩Boston Terriers' carriage give them a presence that goes beyond their size. They have a slightly arched, proud neckline, a broad chest, and a sturdy, boxy appearance.
