How To Live With Your Older Dog

I am sure that most dog owners have seen the movie "Marley and Me" by know; if you haven't its worth checking out. For those dog owners living with older pets it's not far from reality. Like our human children, we think of our dogs as always being puppies with seemingly endless amounts of energy.

The truth of the matter is that sometimes our dogs forget they cannot do what they use to or for as long. They continue to try to please us biding for our attention only to find that sometimes our increasingly busy schedules offer little. As pet parents we need to understand that this time is precious and worth spending every extra moment.

The old adage of seven dog years' equals one human year starts to ring true when your dog turns four to five years old. At that age, they are more like a 28 to 30 year old human and depending on the breed by the time they turn seven they should be considered a senior citizen. The age expectancy for small to medium dogs is anywhere from 12 to 18 years, for large breeds 10 to 15 years while extra large breeds is 7 to 10 years.

The most important thing you can do for your senior dog is have your vet give a senior seven blood work up. This test will screen for a host of issues affecting older dogs. Next would be to realize the limitations of your dog while playing and exercising. Cut the time you use to spend by half finding other activities and reasons to offer your affection.

Expect some "accidents" to happen in the house; do not treat this as you would when your dog was a pup. If your dog was properly housebroken then these accidents are an embarrassment for your dog. Punishment or a stern voice will only make them feel worse as well as confused. On the other hand, do not offer a condolence saying, "that's okay" or you will begin to un-do previous training. Instead, let your dog outside more frequently and if it gets worse place some Wee Pads down encouraging their use instead of the carpet.

Other signs are weight lose, loose of sight and hearing, and weak and tender joints. There are several types of dog food and dog treats available to pet parents that contain natural ingredients formulated to relieve the pain of aging joints. For sever joint pain and arthritis consult your vet; new medications are now available with little side effects that will offer your aging dog a higher quality of life.

Be sure to give extra attention to teeth and gums. Broken or loose teeth are common for older dogs requiring professional cleaning from your vet. Dogs are susceptible to certain types of cancer and like humans; some are operable will others are not. You can find several specialty veterinarian hospitals throughout the country that offer complete oncology departments for pets.

It is sad to say but most pet parents have yet to embrace pet health insurance and the price of treat becomes the concern leaving some the only option to euthanize their pet. At the end of the day, living with an older dog is about quality of life. Purchasing pet stairs to help them get to their favorite spot and consulting with your vet will help extend those precious moments. However, when their quality of life can no longer be maintained then euthanizing is the best choice.

Does anyone else use the Out dog pads for adult dogs? If so, do they leak through? If so, call the co.?

I have 2 dogs and the dog pads seem to be made so thin these days. Both my dogs stay inside all the time and they use the pads everyday. The last pads I bought had seems all the way down them and were stuck together. I called the company and they are making them good. Was wondering if any others had the same problem with the puppy and adult out pads.? Thanks for any replies in advance.

Use a plastic under the bed storage box to put the pads in, they are washable keep everything inside as well because some of my guys would start out on the pads and walk off...... I use them, could not live without them, that way the dogs stay out of trouble and when the weather is bad or I am sick i do not have to worry about it.

A Review of ‘sitstayfetch’ Dog Training Book

I can feel your frustration! Your dog does his business on your new carpet. He rips your unread newspaper apart and then uses it as padding for his nap. You’re outside with your dog. It’s time to go in so you call to him and he just stands there with that ‘you talking to me’ look! You’re afraid to be in public with him because you can’t trust him around people. Oh yea, I can feel your frustration with these problems and more.

I then came across this great dog and puppy training book SitStayFetch. I was very impressed with the quantity and quality of the training methods in the book. Cutting-edge methods which are actually easy to learn and in short time you’ll be training your dog like the professional trainers do. No more ripped newspapers and he’ll come when you call him, and you’ll be comfortable in public with him, etc. Plenty of photos to help you with these methods. There are also videos available.

So what’s your dog’s problem? Too aggressive? Disobedient? It doesn’t matter what the problem is or what kind of dog you have or its age. You don’t need to go to a professional dog trainer and spend a lot of money if you don’t want to because you will learn all of the secrets that they use. Fix any dog behavior problem yourself with these easy to learn methods.

What also impressed me about this book is all the information they give you besides the dog and puppy training methods. They go beyond the training knowing that besides you wanting an obedient dog you also want a healthy and happy dog. You and your dog will have fun together while teaching him tricks like rolling over, crawling, shake hands, and even climb a ladder, etc. You’ll know about all of the illness concerns of dogs and also what you must know before you choose a Vet. Homemade recipes you can use for a healthier dog. No need to buy separate books-you get it all here.

You even get personal help by email for any problem with your dog and through the member’s forum, not to mention the large list of bonus books you get. They truly over-deliver on what you get for the small price. You can try it out with a FREE 6 day mini-course of selected training methods. That sure helped me make up my mind.

This review can’t possibly give you all of the numerous benefits that are in the book but after checking out other books, I found this book to be the best and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Potty Training Puppy – 4 Important Tips For Effective Training!

If you have just purchased or adopted your puppy, one of the most basic puppies training tips you need to know is how to potty train your puppy. Forget about training your new puppy to obey your commands such as 'sit' and 'fetch' at this point in time. Why? Because if you do not want to return home everyday to clean up your puppy's mess, then you better ensure that you apply whatever potty training puppy tips you have learnt from day one!

Before your puppy is effective potty trained, make sure you keep it away from your carpet and other wooden furniture. Only when it is able to eliminate its waste in the designated area do you allow it more freedom to roam your house. If you are wondering how long it will take for your puppy to be effective potty trained, it depends on the breed of your puppy. I have personally heard of puppies which take up to 3 months to be well trained but my own puppies took less than 1 month, so it all depends. Using the potty training puppy tips below will also help you to train your puppy more effectively and quickly. They are the exact tips I used when I trained my puppies.

1. Suitable venue
When you first bring your new puppy home, it will not know where it is supposed to dispose its waste. It is important that you decide on the puppy toilet right from the start for the simple reason that you cannot re-train it to use a different toilet after some time! Preferably, the toilet should be somewhere outdoors. If that cannot be done, train your puppy to use the same toilet that you use. However, if you decide to train your puppy to potty on newspapers, then you run the risk of it eliminating its waste on any newspapers that you might have accidentally left lying around in your house!

2. Consistent training
By consistent training, I'm referring to not changing the 'toilet' and also to check on your puppy every time it needs to potty. At the beginning, you need to check your puppy each time it dispose its waste. If it make a mistake, do not get angry with it or hit it. You can give it a light tap on its bottom and bring it to the correct potty immediately. Only then will it realize that it has made a mistake and learn the correct potty place.

Thus, for faster effect in potty training your puppy, you should be at home at all times during the first few months. A puppy is like a very young child; you cannot correct its mistake if you only find out about it a few hours later. Only by correcting it immediately can you see better results.

3. Best timing for the training
The best time to carry out potty training for your puppy is right after its meals. Thus if you are home, you can take your potty outdoors or to the toilet after its meals in the morning and at night. It is vital to leave a bowl of water for it all day long but you should remove the dish of food after your puppy had its fill during its meal times. You should make it a point to feed your puppy at the same time every day so that it has a proper routine. It will also learn to anticipate potty times as after meal times.

4. Positive re-enforcement
I should say that this is the most important potty training puppy tip of all because your puppy will grow up to be a happy and healthy dog only if it has lots of positive re-enforcements. Shower your puppy with lots of love and be very patient with it. Be prepared that there will be accidents but do not get angry or spank it. Instead, reward it with lots of praises when it manages to potty at the correct place. Do not expect to get results overnight or even for the first few months.

If you apply the above potty training puppy tips, you will be able to get your desired results over time but you need to be very patient and loving. Once your puppy is well-trained, you will have a very clean pet whose company you can get to enjoy for life so it is well worth the time and patience you put in now. Have fun!
