• Although we love dogs from all our hearts, there
  are few things we need to keep in mind when we
  bring that furry ball of happiness into our home.
  Its a fact that no pet parents resist those
  puppy eyes, but are you making mistakes by
  agreeing to every demand your pooch makes?

• When you bring a dog home, its imperative to
  train him properly to prevent misbehavior in the
  future.
• Thus, here we have listed down tips thatll help
  you train and guide your four-legged pal.

4
Free Feeding

• We plan meals for a reason those gaps in
  between our meals are for letting the body digest
  the food and convert it into energy. Free feeding
  will only add extra calories in your dogs body.
  Thus, make a schedule and provide your dog food
  according to that.

5
Training Properly

• Remember, the rules should be the same for every
  person in the family. If you are letting your dog
  cuddle you and sit on your lap, he will think it
  is okay to do this with everyone else in the
  house. Thus, ensure you are clear with the
  training and stick to it.

6
To Praise or To Scold?

• When youre getting angry at your buddy, he
  doesnt know what youre talking about a mistake
  he did 3 days ago. Therefore, try to encourage
  when your furry pal does the right thing, as
  thatll prove more effective.

7
Socializing with other pets

• Letting the dog stay indoor for a long time and
  then taking him to a dog park will certainly
  instigate aggressive or unexpected behavior from
  him. To keep your furry pal at his best behavior,
  you need to socialize him and let him get to know
  other people and dogs.

8
Not Deworming The Dog

• Forgetting to deworm the dog can debilitate his
  immune system and lead to diarrhea and vomiting.
  Wormers like Revolution eliminates
  gastrointestinal worms such as tapeworms,
  whipworms, roundworms, and hookworms.

9
Not Enough Exercise

• Some pet parents dont provide enough physical or
  mental stimulation, which leads to many health
  issues in dogs. Bringing a hyperactive dog into a
  house and not even taking him to a daily walk
  will lead to depression and loneliness. Thus,
  take care of the mental and physical health of
  your pooch.

10
Letting the Dog Put On Weight

• If you have neglected the previous point, it will
  lead to obesity in pets. Letting the dog eat as
  much as he wants and not providing needed
  exercise will cause weight gain in your furry
  pal. Thus, you need to be aware of his weight and
  ensure your furry pal maintains the ideal weight.

11
Neglecting Nails and Teeth

• Nails and teeth are two body parts from where the
  bacteria can get into the dogs system. Teeth
  require regular cleaning and grooming otherwise,
  it can lead to periodontal diseases, causing
  unbearable pain to dogs. Likewise, trimming nails
  is also vital to avoid any injuries.

12
Neglecting Parasites

• Its essential to administer flea and ticks and
  heartworm preventatives to maintain your Fidos
  good health. Therefore, ensure you have
  preventatives like Frontline Plus for preventing
  and eliminating fleas and ticks and Heartgard
  Plus for heartworm prevention.

13
Not Having A Disaster Plan

• When the danger of some natural disaster is
  looming over your head, quick action is required.
  Therefore, keep a few shelter names or hotels in
  mind where you can safely keep your pooch during
  any emergency.
