  2.  <h3>Dog Tips You Will Benefit From Knowing</h3>

  4.  Adopting a dog is a great idea. They make perfect pets and are incredibly loving. To ensure that your dog is healthy and happy does, however, take some effort. Utilize the great dog-care tips discussed in this article to avoid problems and ensure that your doggy lives a happy and healthy life full of fun and joy.
  5.  Never hit your dog. There are better ways to train a dog without having to resort to violence. The best way to train a dog is to reinforce positive behaviors with treats and attention. Negative behavior should be handled with a stern and disapproving voice as opposed to striking the animal.
  6.  Whenever you travel with your pet, don't skimp on the packing. Of course you need to be well supplied with his food, water and any medications he may be on, but experts advise that you also bring his grooming supplies, vaccination paperwork, tags and an extra leash. Also, bring a flat sheet for when your dog will be on hotel furniture.

  8.  If you are in the market for a new puppy, make sure you will have enough time to devote to his training. On average, you need to take a young dog outside to do his business eight times a day and that can take a lot away from your schedule. Training takes more time and patience than most people realize.
  9.  Do you have a &quot;wrinkly&quot; dog, like a bulldog? If so, you have to be conscientious about the grooming process in order to help keep your pet clean. After you brush, take a baby wipe and use it to get in between the folds on their body. Make sure, though, to get them fully dry after doing so.
  10.  Purchase a dog that can keep up with your lifestyle. If you love to run, seek out a pooch that will love to run alongside you. If you like to stay at home, perhaps you would like a small dog. Getting a dog that matches your lifestyle will make you both more happy.
  11.  Be politically active on behalf of your pooch! Watch to see if there are any laws passed that affect your situation as the owner of a dog. That legislations is often motivated by certain breeds or certain dogs that have behaved badly. Make sure that your voice is heard on behalf of other dog owners.
  12.  To make your dog happy and increase the bond between you, try learning how to give him a massage! It's been shown in recent studies that structured massages are highly beneficial to a dog's health and can improve their overall well-being. This activity can also be very relaxing for you as well.
  13.  The pads of your dog's feet can become dry and cracked, so make sure that you moisturize them regularly. Ask your veterinarian for advice on which product to use. Avoid using moisturizers that are intended for humans, because they can make the pads too soft and your dog may get hurt.
  14.  Don't forget about your dog when writing your will. Many pets end up being fought over or neglected completely because specific instructions were not left regarding their care. Include a clause that clearly directs your loved ones on what to do with your dog so that he's well taken care of.
  15.  If your dog is in heat, be careful if you want her to not end up pregnant. Males can detect the scent from miles away. She could also cause fighting among other dogs, along with becoming pregnant with an unwanted litter of unknown origin.
  16.  When taking your senior dog to the vet for an annual visit, make sure to request senior blood work. A blood panel can help your vet to identify any kidney, heart or vascular concerns. If caught early, treatment is often minimally invasive and less costly. This is a great way to keep your pet healthy for years to come.
  17.  Check you dog for parasites and take preventative measure. Flea and tick collars are important. Keep in mind certain collar work better in different seasons and geographic areas. In addition, check your dog's ears. Ear mites are common. Also, check the dog's stool to ensure he hasn't picked up worms in his digestive system.
  18.  
  19.  Even if your dog does not spend the majority of his time outside, it is still important that you bring him or her to the vet for their yearly shots. Your dog could come in contact with other dogs at the dog park or at your home. If the other dog is sick, it could pass on to your dog. This is why it is important that they are vaccinated every year.
  20.  
  21.  You might feel the urge to feed your dog a piece of your snack. Be careful, because some foods are harmful to dogs. Never give foods like grapes, chocolate or caffeine to a dog. They can cause illnesses and, in some cases, even death, and your dog will not benefit by receiving them.
  22.  If you are training your dog to not pull when on the leash, you should invest in a quality collar and leash. If you have a larger dog, the force of it pulling might be able to break basic collars and leashes. For this reason a good, strong collar is recommended when you are walking your pup.
  23.  Punish your dog carefully. You should never punish your dog for a mischief that happened more than fifteen minutes ago since your dog will probably not establish a connection between the punishment and the bad behavior. If you catch your dog misbehaving, say no in a firm voice and have your dog sit in a corner for a few minutes.
  24.  If you are looking into getting a dog you should ask as much about the dog that you can think of. For example, you will want to know about its mannerisms, level of activity and how affection it is. Ask whatever you can think of, so that you do not regret your decision later.
  25.  Hold on, take some deep breathes and tomorrow will be better than today. Use the advice you have read here and allow it to give you ideas of your own. There is nothing like loving a dog, and while the job of caring for them is hard, it is worth every second.
