Finger tip Dog Care Essentials For Pet Owners

The dog, man's best friend


We all know dogs are probably our most loyal friends but are you treating your dog right? Sometimes we believe that by providing food and shelter our dogs should be happy but how many of us haven’t seen stray dogs around being sent to pounds? It goes to say that if you can’t take complete care of a dog, then you’re better off not owning one. However, if you want to own one, then you must have these at your fingertips.

1. Very often we get a pet dog as a gift from our neighbours so we hardly research the breed. Each breed of dog has its own care essentials therefore it’s important to research the breed and know the right treatment to provide. For example, some dogs may require your personal training to bond rather than being sent to a trainer.

2. Build a comfortable Kernel. Based on your weather conditions you should get a Kernel that suits your climate if you intend to keep your dog in the backyard. If you live in a hot and humid climate, building oil painted wooden kernel under shades of trees would be perfect. Note however that, raising your dog in an open compound is the best because dogs require companionship.

3. Hygiene is very important in keeping your dog healthy, obviously. Find the best and most nutritious food for your breeds and always ensure that your dogs have their meals from very clean bowls to avoid common health issues like worm infection. Ensure regular deworming and vitamin taking for your dogs to keep them healthy and free from diseases they may be prone to. Also importantly, ensure they have clean water to drink.

4. Get a tag with your dog’s name on it so that when it strays, it can easily be located. Also ensure that your dog is always on a leash when you take it for a walk. It would save you a lot of trouble with the authorities if it has behavourial issues. You should also check with authorities in your area requiring any permit or registration issues before getting a dog


5. You should also ensure that your dog gets all the necessary vaccinations as puppy and visits the vet regularly for checkups.


6. Last but not least, you need to train your dog. You could hire a trainer but your best bet should be to train it yourself because the companionship would create a strong and loyal bond between you. Here’s a great resource that could help you achieve that Dog Care Essentials From The Best Trainer
