Return To Nature With Your Dog

Now that Spring has finally sprung we all feel more energetic and have a continuous desire to go outside and enjoy the nature more. It is the same for our dogs. As dog owners we are very lucky because we always have at least one friend (the furry one), who is always ready and happy to join us outside. 

Going out in the nature with our dogs, has a wonderful impact in their physical and mental health, and this goes for us too. Spending some quality time together outdoors will also reinforce the bond with our loving dogs. There many activities you can do to spend time outside with your dog and appreciate the nature.

Hiking 

It will be like taking your dog out for a walk, not a normal walk, but a very long one. Imagine the fun your dog will have while exploring the nature, smelling new scents, seeing new things. He will be exploring a whole new world.

Running

You want to go out for your morning or night run, but don't have anyone to go with you? Think a again! Your dog would love to exercise too. They are perfect running partners.

Go to the park

Head to the nearest park with your dog and a stick or a small ball. Dogs love to play fetch. It will be fun for both of you and will make you get closer to each other.

Field camping 

Your dog would surely enjoy a day full of fun activities, running around, chasing butterflies and a night staying next to the fire.

A day at the beach or lake

Digging holes in the sand, rolling in the sun, getting the paws wet in the water, or even dive in if the water is safe. A single day there would feel like a wonderful vacation for you dog.

One beer for my dog, please

Last Sunday, while my family and I were having lunch on the backyard, Doni as usual was just standing beside me with his puppy dog eyes. He always wants to try everything I am eating. I can never resist him, so I gave him a little piece of my beef. While I was taking a sip of my beer, he kept looking at me, like he was saying "Give some of that, I don't know what it is, but you seem to like it, and I want it."
From all the food on the table it was the only thing, Doni couldn't try, so I decided to search if there was any beer made for dogs. Fortunately while searching the net I found out an awesome dog beer, the Bowser Beer.
Now me and Doni can both enjoy watching a game, or having an easy afternoon together while drinking our beers.

The Bowser Beer Beefy Brown Ale is a fun and nutritious alternative to real beer.
It contains glucosamine that is essential for maintaining healthy joints.
This beer is made from scratch beef broth, high in protein, and pure malt barley, which is great for shiny coats.

It is a safe nontoxic beer alternative that contains no alcohol, hops, or carbonation all of which can be toxic to dogs.

How to prepare your dog for a new baby in the house

If you are thinking of having a baby, or are already waiting for the little one who is on the way, you sure are making plans about the birth and everything that comes after. But if your family includes a four-paws furry member you will have to a do a lot more planning. Having a new baby in your family will definitely change most of the aspects of your everyday life. These changes will also affect your dog’s routine.

When the baby comes the time that you’ll have for your dog will be reduced a lot and if this change hits the dog’s life routine immediately it may cause him distress and anxiety or even make him depressed. To avoid these from happening, it is best to start preparing months before the baby comes, and start cutting some of the time that you spend with your furry-love. This way your dog will gradually get used to the amount of time that you spend with him, and won’t notice the big difference in the time spent with him when the baby comes. It is a good idea to get a lot of toys for your dog so he can get distracted most of the time and actually enjoy his time with himself while chewing his favorite toys.

If your dog is already very obedient to you, it will be easier for him to get used to the new orders and rules. In another case you may need to plan a training time for him before the baby comes. The dog will get very curious about the baby and his/her moves and sounds. He will try to sniff the baby or want to play him/her. That is why the dog must be well trained and very obedient to you. If you don’t have enough time to train the dog yourself, the best thing to do is to contact a certified dog trainer.

When you buy the baby’s furniture, toys or clothes, let the dog sniff some of them. This way he will get used to the smell of things that will be used by the baby. Also one day before the baby comes home from the hospital one member of the family may bring home a blanket that has the baby’s smell for the dog to sniff. This way the dog won’t be too surprised by the baby’s smell.
Practice staying around your dog with a doll or a teddy bear in your arms. Also, try taking walking your dog by taking the baby’s stroller with you. Practice makes perfect, so your dog won’t notice any big difference when the baby finally comes.

Hope these few tips may be helpful for the new parents to be who have a furry member in their families.
