How our habits affect the character of dogs

Almost every person in the house has a living being that is a member of the family. These are cats, dogs, hamsters, decorative rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, canaries, parrots. Some breed quite exotic animals. For example, a boa constrictor, a lizard, an iguana, a monkey. He is looked after, washed, fed, etc. But none of us thought that we ourselves shape the character of our favorites. Our behavior depends on our behavior.


In this article, we will examine how such a dependence manifests itself, using the example of an animal such as a dog. Our everyday habits and quirks affect the character of our pets. But how exactly?

I stayed - ontolstet

Go out for a walk? Well, no-no-no! It's cold there, and an excellent film is on TV ... In fact, nothing can be an excuse to not go with a dog for a walk. In the end, it's enough just to go around the house so that he does all his business.

The problem . In dogs, as man, the lack of physical activity strongly contributes to obesity. Excess weight, as well as weak, undeveloped muscles exacerbate the problems with the joints by the heart.

The solution . A dog's weight. Play with it at least 10-15 minutes a day. Stroll less than half an hour twice a day.

I'm alarmist - he has a persistent stress

Our dogs are almost our whole life. They are with us everywhere (more often on their hands). And if you suddenly have to leave a pet for a long time, we calm him down before leaving: "Mom will come back very soon." Ikak just returned - at once: "Here's Mom and Home!"

The problem . Your excessive care gives the dog psychological discomfort. Very quickly he will get used to the fact that you always wear with him and begin to demand constant attention. He will not be able to stay alone for a minute - he will start barking and mark everything.

The solution . Let the dog live in its rhythm. Ignore the dog every time you come home or go to work - so you'll teach him to count the loneliness of a normal state.

I live at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour - he's hyperactive

There are too many things, there is not a minute to rest! In a rhythm like you, live all the domestic, including the dog. Games, walks, parties, regular guests in the house ... Entertainment follows one after another, your psyadzha has no time to chew bone.

The problem . Too much attention, the dog becomes hyperactive. She sleeps little (even at night), constantly jumping, running, barking, can suddenly bite ... As a result, she is annoying all those around her.

The solution . Let us take a sleeping place (basket), suitable for size. And most importantly, let it not be on the aisle, but in a secluded place. Let the dog have the opportunity to rest, which he so needs: an adult dog sleeps about 65% of life.

I am a fashionista - he has problems with wool

Well, how is it possible - being a stylish girl, to walk a dog that "looks bad"? To make everything harmonious, we take our lovers to the beauty saloons, dress them in funny booties and fashionable overalls, give ornaments - collars with rhinestones, tie bows and even buy special toilet water for dogs.

The problem . Small bows, firmly fixed on the head, irritate the skin and spoil the coat. Eau de toilette discourages the natural odor of the dog, which becomes an obstacle in dealing with other animals, and too frequent washing prevents the skinhead from performing protective functions.

The solution . A dog is a gross animal, you do not have to forget about it. Regular combing and shampooing once a month - these procedures are enough for the dog to be well-groomed.
