Every dog pro has some tips to ensure a happy and healthy dog. Today we’ve got the top three tips from Doug Darroch of San Diego-based Extraordinary Pets, a pet sitting and dog walking business, for making your dog happy at home and on the walk:
#1 An easy leader harness
If you want to make your daily walks as easy as possible, get an easy leader harness. They are extremely simple, they do not harm the dog in any way and the dog learns not to pull. They simply hook in the front of the dog’s chest and, when your dog tries to pull, they turn sideways.
#2 Organic chicken snacks
Get a bag full of these little snacks for a brief training session after dinner. You can also give one to your dog when you leave the house so that they are happy to see you go.
#3 A good dog bone
Get your dog a new bone every time you buy dog food. Your dog will be happy to chew on it during down time around the house.
