Dogs are known to be creatures of habit.

They will often continue in the same routine over and over, whether it's feeding time or playing fetch in the yard.

This repetition can be both a blessing and a curse when you want your dog to switch behaviors.

The good news is that dogs can learn new tricks with some simple training, but it takes patience on your part too.

The key is breaking up their old habits by counter-conditioning them with positive experiences so they start looking forward to the new behavior rather than just doing what they've always done before.

Certainly, re-training your dog is tough for a solo quest, so hey, if you want professional help, we’re here for you!

Many people have a dog that they love dearly, but it can be hard to find ways to keep the pup occupied when you're away at work all day.

There are many things you can do to help your pooch stay entertained while you're gone.

One option is interactive toys which will give them something new to play with and keep them out of trouble.

You should also consider crate training your pet so that he or she has their own safe space in which they can relax when the house gets too quiet for comfort.

Cats are the most common species kept by humans.

They are also the most popular pet after dogs.

Cats have been domesticated since ancient times, so they are very accustomed to living with humans.

Even more so, unlike dogs, cats don't view humans differently from themselves and treat them as they would any other cat!

This is why cats make such great pets - they're independent, low maintenance, and good companions.

As a cat owner, what are your observations on this? Comment below!

Cats are affectionate animals. These furry creatures love to snuggle up and be affectionate with their owners. They adore being caressed in the back of their ears and neck. While others love being scratched at the base of their tale, however, what does it mean when a cat lets you touch its paws?

Sometimes, cats can be incredibly frustrating.

They always seem to be aloof and disinterested in what's going on around them.

And when they do design to pay attention to us, they often do so in a way that makes it clear they think we're idiots.

But even with all of their irritating quirks, cats are still some of our favorite animals, even if they hate us sometimes!

They have a personality that's all their own, and we can't help but love them for it.

ESPECIALLY when they’re being grumpy towards us.

If the time has come that your cat has become a full-on grump that seems to hate you, take these 5 tips and bring your relationship back to the normal warmth!

Dogs are creatures of habit. They’re also creatures of change, which is part of the reason why there are so many different breeds with such varied appearances and personalities!

And hey, much like humans and any other living beings - Dogs’ bodies change over time, and so does their biology & habitual life.

In addition, with their strong senses, dogs' food preferences may drastically change in a short time span!

So! Stay on the look for what your dog wants/doesn't want and follow up with its natural desires and needs!

If you've noticed too drastic of a change in your dog's habits, consult a professional veterinarian!

Did you know that Persian cats are one of the breeds that have a much higher chance of developing an upper respiratory infection?

This is due to their inherently flattened faces and, thus, the naturally lessened ability to fight off bacteria.

So if you own a Persian cat or are thinking of getting one, consider the fact that you will have to be thrice as careful as you normally would!

Reactivity is when a dog overreacts to things in its environment. These reactions can include barking, lunging, and growling.

Here are some helpful tips to handle your dog's reactivity.

02/03/2022

As you already learned from previous posts, polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a progressive, hereditary disorder that causes cysts to form on the kidneys.

These cysts cause the kidneys to become enlarged and gradually stop working.

Unfortunately, it can be fatal in cats because it affects their ability to regulate fluids and electrolytes.

Polycystic kidney disease can be cured in some cases if detected early enough but it cannot be cured if not caught until later stages of progression or when irreversible damage has already been done.

In these cases, treatment is focused on helping the cat maintain its quality of life as long as possible through fluid therapy and other treatments such as dietary changes.

But hey, if your cat has PKD - Don’t worry! Modern-day veterinary medicine will allow you and your feline friend to have just as good of a life experience together as if the problem didn’t exist in the first place!

There are some people who think nothing of giving their dog a hotdog for breakfast, but these are just two examples of the many unhealthy things that humans feed their pets.

We know that obesity is an epidemic in humans, and it’s an even bigger problem in dogs.

If that happens, well it only means our furry friends have to deal with joint pain, diabetes, heart disease, and other serious health problems due to being overweight.

This is why addressing any abnormal eating habits is important, regardless of the type of eating disorder.

Take these 5 tips with you, let your dog enjoy healthy food, and move with it!

This is how you make dogs happy!

In humans, polycystic kidney disease is a genetic disorder that causes clusters of cysts to grow in the kidney.

This condition causes the kidneys to enlarge over time and lose function.

The same goes for Persian cats!

Some data suggest that genetically, Persian cats are more likely than other breeds to develop polycystic kidneys (PKD).

With this in mind, it is important to do frequent check-ups on your Persian's health and stay on the look for symptoms, such as:

Lethargy
Weight loss
Reduced appetite
Vomiting
Increased thirst
Increased urination

If you have suspicions about such persistent symptoms, contact a vet immediately!

Did you know that dogs can also suffer from eating disorders?

These problems range from minor picky eaters who refuse to try new foods, to pets with more serious problems such as eating non-food substances and even items! Much like in humans, there is indeed a root cause for the abnormal eating habits in dogs.

Stay on the look for those 5 and if needed, advise with your vet!

Certainly, we cannot always be following the actions of our beloved pets, which is the exact reason why oftentimes, they may consume things they’re not meant to, without us even realizing.

Pica is a disorder that makes dogs consume things that aren’t really food (dirt, rocks and even f***s.)

Certainly, this can lead to some complications, so if you suspect that your dog has pica, stay aware of these 6 signs:

Ulcers
Burping
Drooling
Black stools
Vomiting
Diarrhea

If that is the case, talk to a vet immediately and take action, accordingly!

Who hasn’t woken up in the morning with a cat on their chest?

Or worse - Under the chest!

The animal appears to have snuck into your bed while you were sleeping.

This has happened to me before, and I didn't even know that there was a kitty under my covers until I felt its little heart beating faster than mine as he tried to escape from beneath me.

What does this mean, though?

Well, they may be trying to tell you something about how they feel about being left alone at night.

You might want to try giving them some more attention or company, so they don't have the need to sneak into your bed.

Or maybe, your cat really just wants to cuddle with you and feels comfy doing so!

Dogs’ sense of smell is an incredible thing.

They can detect odors that humans cannot, and they can tell the difference between individual dogs by their scent alone.

But as obsessed as we may be with our canine friends, we’ll never truly know what it’s like to live life through their noses.

So, hey, respect your dog’s senses and avoid harsh smells around the house, because they can REALLY sense them!

Cats are often considered to be clean animals.

However, sometimes it is possible that cats will use their litter box for a short while and then stop using it.

There are a variety of reasons as to why this can happen, but the most common ones are:

1. The cat is feeling unwell and needs you to notice
2. The box is dirty, the cat wants you to clean it up!
3. The cat wants someone to play with her/him
4. The location may be of dislike for the cat
5. The cat doesn't fit well and wants a new, bigger one

Cats are one of the most popular pets in America. They’re also among the best companions because they’re naturally affectionate and playful, but can still be content to cuddle up on your lap for hours at a time.
