—How to introduce your new puppy to your cat—

A while back I posted about how to introduce your new kitten to your dog. Now we are going to be flipping it and talk about bringing in a new puppy to meet your cat!

This one, in my opinion, is a lot easier because cats are really good about having boundaries and making it known what their boundaries are.

So I typically just let the puppy go and let them meet organically. If the puppy ever gets to be too much for the cat, they either let the puppy know or they just remove themselves from the situation!

The greatest teacher I know is the job itself
-James Cash Penny

I have learned A LOTTTT (seriously) from other people, but nothing compares to just doing it. Messing something up and figuring out how to fix it myself. The experience is priceless...

—PLAY—
“[In the wild] engaging in play allows animals to experiment without dangerous consequences. The unwritten code of conduct surrounding play lets them explore many possible outcomes”

Serotonin: Mood stabilizer that improves sleep, reduces anxiety, and increases happiness☺️

To stimulate YOUR serotonin: Go for a walk outside and get some sunshine

To stimulate YOUR DOG’S serotonin: Let them rest after exercise or play. Either by cuddling up with them on the couch or letting them have some crate time

My favorite environment to train recall is on a hike! There are always realistic distractions, if I am specifically working on the recall I’ll keep that my focus. I’ll set a mental clock and recall them about every five minutes or so…
