The Bond that may come between somebody and a dog can be intensely robust, particularly if that bond had been fortified living alongside one another for a few years, I have personally cried after loosing our family dog that had been like a best chum to me from my birth until I as fifteen years old, when he was hit by an auto one morning. Some folk get a dog as they are lonely and need a devoted buddy or because they would like a dog to guard the home.

A dog that is taken good care of and given attention to continually will give his life to help protect his home and his owner. For the blind a dog could be a pair of eyes to help them get around and for the police a dog can be a crucial tool and a loyal partner, with a nose that nothing can beat. The very first thing you have to know about looking after a dog is that dogs need heaps of exercise. This is identical for huge dogs and little dogs. All dogs have to be let out once or more each eight hours and should given at least a twenty minute walk to give the dog some unpolluted air, exercise and an opportunity to relieve themselves.

It is also crucial to play with the dog on a consistent basis. This may mean going to the park on a weekend or day off and having a good game of fetch, tossing the ball around in your back yard or merely wrestling on the ground with the dog, simply make sure if you are ruff housing with a tiny dog that you do not incidentally hurt the dog.

Playing with the dog for a half hour a day, is not just good for the dogs physical health but a dig that's played with constantly is mentally more healthy and not as likely to become a depressed dog, it also lowers your blood pressure as well and it'll form an indestructible bond between you and your pooch, that will extend to your family if you need to start having one after having the dog. What you feed your dog is critical to the dogs continued good health. Younger dogs need certain minerals and vitamins in bigger amounts then an adult dog, and the same applies for an old dog they need more calcium in their food to help protect their bones and joints. Feeding your dog the incorrect food can stunt the dog's expansion and opens the dog to a bigger risk of surgery when they are older.

Regular checkups and vaccinations will also help assure that your dog grows to be an old satisfied dog.
