Musher's Secret

If you live in colder regions, you are familiar with the havoc snowy weather can wreak on a dog’s paws. Salt, sand, and other ice-melting chemicals can cause their pads to crack and make going outside painfully unbearable. Although booties work well, they do not stay on all dogs, and some dogs will pull them off as fast as you try to put them back on.

House Training Your Dog

There are no easy answers to the age-old problem of house-training. The first step in keeping your pet from “going” inside is to make sure that he gets plenty of trips outside. A young pup will not be able to wait more than a couple of hours before requiring a pit stop.

Use an appropriately sized training crate to help with outdoor potty training. Your dog will likely not eliminate in his crate, so take him outside immediately after leaving the crate.

Dog in the Office

As the modern workplace continues to evolve, more and more progressive companies are allowing employees to bring their dogs to work with them. But no matter how much you love your pet, dogs are guests within the working environment, so put your co-workers first.

Some people have allergy issues and others are simply afraid of dogs, but others find having a dog in the office reduces stress and makes work feel more welcoming. It can be great to have a tail-wagging pup cozying up to you while you’re working!

Dogs and Fall

As the routines and activities of the fall season start to appear on the horizon, it is important to remember that our dogs need to be given some time to adjust to their new schedules. Our pets typically enjoy those long summer days when kids are home from school, workdays tend to be a bit shorter and your pooch may even get to come along on a family vacation. The extra attention and potentially looser routine may be much different from the more scheduled patterns that begin with Labor Day.

Our dogs have suffered through this sometimes torturously-hot summer alongside us.
