During this time of global uncertainty, there are parts of our lives that have been put to the back burner. If you have (or will soon have) a new puppy at home, it is imperative to keep up their socialization during these times of isolation. A puppy's critical (or social) period ranges from around 3 weeks to 3 months of age. This is the time when puppies can readily accept new things or people and still feel safe. With the following advice I hope that you can start your puppy off on the right foot. Please share this blog with as many puppy owners as you know! First and foremost, click HERE and download the puppy socialization checklist from Dr. Sophia Yin's website. Near the end of the blog you can click on the link to download the puppy socialization checklist. It gives a good outline of all the different things puppies need to socialize to, and one can tweak these during isolation.
Using a gentle leader can help you keep your puppy's head where you need it to be, looking up at you while sitting. However, socialization is not just getting your puppy used to meeting other dogs or strange people, it is EVERYTHING in this dog's world. This is easy to do from home without anyone around (you might have lots of free time right now anyway!). Again, refer to Dr. Sophia Yin's checklist.
With everything going on in the world, making sure your puppy is well socialized can seem small. However, this time will pass and when it does, you will feel good knowing that you provided your newest family member with skills that will carry it through its entire life.

If you want to help your pet get some great time, even during this pandemic, then follow this list. All of the things that are in here are absolutely amazing. I was able to spend a lot of time with my dog thanks to it. They are not truly out of the world, but people miss the little things during these times. I hope that this can be of help to those who did not read the blog to its completion.

The end of the year is a great time to sit back, reflect and be grateful for all the wonderful things that have happened in the past year. Like puppies. And their names. Enjoy this list brought to you by Vetstreet.

I just recently bought a dog, and since I am not an expert when it comes to grooming a pet; I've been thinking of bringing it to an animal hospital. It's great to know that a veterinarian will be able to determine any alarming changes and address them right away. I guess you also have a point that it will be best to have my dog vaccinated as well.

I have known a number of people who have ‘bought ‘ (it makes me shudder) a Frenchie and they find out the breed is prey driven or perhaps is very high strung.

Reviewers are unlikely to use the same phrases often, so writers should also look at the other They also don't copy and paste the essay writing service reviews because the firms would like them to utilize the same terms again and over.

I have always lived in a cooler climate, but my husband and I just moved to a warm area. Just like we are adjusting to it, I can see that my dog is having a hard time adjusting! I appreciate your tip to walk him early in the morning before the temperature gets too high.

There are multiple companies that have deals every month so you can see which grooming company you like the most while getting a deal.

When it comes to the frequency of grooming, your dog's breed plays a significant role. Dogs with short, smooth coats, such as Beagles, Dalmatians, and Boxers, typically require less frequent grooming sessions. Generally, a good brush every one to two weeks and a bath every four to six weeks is sufficient to keep their coats clean and healthy. On the other hand, long-haired breeds, like Golden Retrievers, Collies, and Shih Tzus, need more regular grooming to prevent matting and tangling. These breeds should be brushed at least two to three times a week, and bathing should be done every four to eight weeks, depending on the coat's condition. Curly or wavy-haired breeds, such as Poodles and Bichon Frises, require even more attention due to their dense and curly coats. These dogs should be brushed daily to prevent matting and require professional grooming every six to eight weeks to keep their coats trimmed and manageable
