Choosing a toy for your dog!

Author: admin  //  Category: Dog Toys

Choosing a toy that suits your pet friend!
Direct your dog’s energy onto a toy that is appropriate for his size. Toys for smaller dogs or puppies won’t be as interesting for a larger dog, and toys that are too small may be swallowed or get stuck at the back of the mouth or throat.

Dogs like variety, so have several different toys available. Change them around weekly so your dog doesn’t get sick of them. It will be like a new toy each week! Have a few different toys available at one time for choice. If your dog is particularly attached to one item and displays anxiety when it is taken away, you can keep that one with him.

Dogs love their toys and it is a great way to keep them amused… For further tips on dogs and their behaviour etc see http://www.petalia.com.au/Home/.

 

Tips to bond you and your dog

Author: admin  //  Category: Looking After Your Pet

If you are a new dog owner, you may be concerned about whether you can take care of a dog. If you just keep these simple tips in mind, you and your new dog will have a successful and happy relationship.

1. Visit the vet - Dogs need to have a yearly physical and updated vaccines, just as people do. In fact, since dogs age more quickly than people, it is best to take your dog to the vet every six months for a quick physical. If your vet sees your dog regularly, he may be able to spot changes in your dog that signal illness or disease.

2. Train your dog - A well behaved dog is welcome almost anywhere. Make sure other people can enjoy your dog’s company by teaching him good manners. Teaching your dog to sit, stay, heel and come is very important. If he ever starts to run into the street, these commands could even save his life.

3. Feed your dog right - Feeding your dog the right food can keep him active and healthy for many years. Dogs love yummy food just like us humans do so be sure to pay attention to what yuor dog does and dosent enjoy in his meals.

4. Remember to neuter your dog - Unless your dog is an exceptional representative of his breed, please neuter him. This is one of the most important ways to take care of your dog, since neutering a dog at six months of age can prevent many common dog cancers.

5. Groom your dog - Dogs feel better when they are well groomed, just as people do. Brush your dog regularly, even if he has a short coat. Trim his nails or ask your vet to trim them so that he can walk comfortably. You can even brush his teeth with a special dog brush and toothpaste to be sure he doesn’t develop dental problems.

Digging Tips

Author: admin  //  Category: Food & Treats, Looking After Your Pet

Digging!

This activitiey can be symptoms of a more significant behaviour problem. Dogs usually do these things for a reason. By talking to you and surveying the dog’s environment, You can normally find the cause and suggest a solution.

Digging

It is not unusual for dogs to dig, although it can be increased with boredom, stress or a diet deficiency. There are many things you can try - all dogs are different, so what works on one dog may not work on another. A combination of training, prevention and safe deterrents is the most effective approach. The following are successful strategies to try:

  • Fill in hole and place dog droppings just under the surface of the hole (make sure they are covered). This is mostly for dogs that return to the same holes. You may need to persist for a while.
  • Place a balloon or water bomb just under the surface of the hole. This is not to scare the dog but to give it a reprimand as it disturbs the surface.
  • For concentrated areas spray Bitter Apple (available from Bark Busters) on the ground and in and on the hole, or burying a rag soaked in either product in the hole.

Your dog needs to be mentally stimulated; most dog toys are for fun and require own participation. Food motivated toys can be an effective way to keep a dog occupied when you are out. The best are Kongs!

You can only reprimand your dog for digging if you catch him/her in the act. Reprimanding after the event is pointless, never show your dog the hole after the fact.
