❤️️“If a dog will not come to you after having looked you in the face, you should go home and examine your conscience.” – Woodrow Wilson❤️️

It is widely thought that our dogs can tell our personality type and react accordingly. 🐶
And of course, they can: how many of us can claim not to feel more carefree and relaxed with a dog than without one, and vice-versa? 🐾
But this isn't how we find out about their individual personalities – we know them through their individual responses to us.😉

How did you meet your dog?

🐶This Week's Dog Breed Fact Is About The Beagle🐶

Beagles were originally bred as scent hounds to track small game, mostly rabbits and hare. 😃
They’re still used for this purpose in many countries today, including the United States
It’s important to remember that dogs of any breed can suffer from health issues throughout their lives. 🐕
A good pet insurance plan can help you prepare to give your dog the care they need at any age. 🐾

🐶Toilet training a puppy🐶

Dogs naturally want to toilet away from their living area - usually, this will be your garden or, if you don’t have one, an outside area very near your home. 🏡
If you use newspaper or puppy pads overnight, pop some of the soiled paper in this area, as the smell will help your puppy know where to go to the toilet. 🚽
It’s best to let your puppy out in the garden without a lead on as it will be too restrictive. 🐾
If your puppy needs to be on a lead for whatever reason, an extendable lead is a good solution.😉

🐶What should I feed my puppy?🐶

By the time puppies are eight weeks old, they should have been weaned on solid food. 🥗
You can choose to keep them on the same puppy food or switch them to a different brand of puppy food. 🤔
Feeding your dog at the same time each day will help get them into a routine. 🐕
At four months, reduce this to three meals a day, and when they are six months old, reduce to two meals.
Avoid strenuous exercise after eating, which can lead to vomiting and potentially bloating.🐾

How would you improve the current pet food market?

🐾7 subtle signs your dog is in pain🐾

Dogs feel pain for many of the same reasons as humans. From difficulty rising to appetite changes, detecting pain in our canine companions is vital to understand when they feel under the weather. 🐶
Some dogs will show you that they are in pain in a blatant way, whereas others will act stoic and manifest fewer signs of suffering.
One of the signs to look out for is your pup becoming more vocal. 🐕
If your dog is in pain, they may refuse to walk up the stairs. As dogs get older, some may suffer from arthritis, which can make walking up the stairs a painful experience.🤔

How do you know if your dog is feeling sick or in pain?

❤️️“Such short little lives our pets have to spend with us, and they spend most of it waiting for us to come home each day.” – John Grogan❤️️

When we go to work each day, our dogs wait by the window for us to come home, and we often feel bad when we leave our dogs at home alone. 🐶
Dog's life is quite simple, sleep, eat and wait for you to come home and play with your pup. 👣
The average life expectancy of a dog is 12 years.
So roughly, a dog spends about 10 years waiting for their owner to come home.🏡

😴How to sleep train a puppy — and why getting a crate will help more than you realise😴

If you're anything like me, you'd be happy for your pup to sleep anywhere, but if you're a sensible lad from North Yorkshire who grew up on a farm, the puppy belongs in a crate downstairs. 🐾
A crate gives a pup its own space, a place where humans don't go, and it is a fantastic asset to have when training a dog.🐶
While you shouldn't use your crate as a place of punishment or a convenient storage facility while doing the vacuum cleaning, it's also invaluable for training a dog.

Have you ever trained a dog?
