Keeping Your Dog Happy

Dogs are great pets, wonderful companions and show you love no matter what! It isn’t really hard to keep your dog happy.

Owning a dog is a huge responsibility not to be taken lightly. They require minimum work to keep them healthy which in turn keeps them happy. If you are one of the lucky humans to have a dog you know it is one of the most rewarding life experiences that you can ever have.

Treat them more like a friend than a pet. Dogs need touch. They show their love by licking you so try no to scold them. I am sure they would pet us back if they could! There are several very good reasons that dogs are referred to as a man’s (or woman’s) best friend.
