Dog Friendly Article: What Are the Responsibilities in Raising a Dog?


As a dog owner, we want to make sure that we are taking care of our pet properly. For that reason, we would want to ensure that we were looking after their health carefully and taking care of any of their needs that they are unable to care for by themselves.

Owning a dog is a big responsibility and it is one that should not be taken lightly. Here are a few tips that can help you to handle your dog properly and to make sure that they are happy and balanced throughout their lifetime.

One of the most important things for you to consider when you own a dog is a type of food that they are eating. This is something that is often overlooked, as most commercial dog foods run advertisements which make them seem as if they are providing everything that your dog needs. If you really take a look at the ingredients that are available in those foods, however, you will quickly learn that it is full of unnatural products.


It is what is not on a label, however, that is alarming. Dog food contains a number of chemicals that would never be found in human food and it also contains byproducts that are certainly something that you would never feed your pet. It is best if you find an organic food that is sold privately in your local area, as they are the companies that really care about your dog and its health.

Dog training is also a very important part of caring for your animal. It is something that you should consider from the time that they are a puppy because it can help to make them a balanced part of the family. There are going to be times, however, when problems can arise and the need for a certified dog behavior consultant comes about. When there is the case, make sure that you choose someone that can come to your home to work with the dog directly. By working with them in their home environment, they will be able to make any decisions as to what type of training to do and what you can do as the owner to help curtail the issue.

Most of us understand the fact that we need exercise in order to be healthy but very few of us get the exercise that is needed. Dogs also need exercise in the form of play and walking on a daily basis. Not only is it going to be healthy for the dog when you walk them regularly, it also helps to tire them out so that they are less likely to get into mischief. It has the added benefit of making you healthy, as you will be walking with them.

Finally, make sure that you are giving your dog the time that it needs in order to be happy and well balanced. Try to spend as much time as possible with the animal and avoid leaving them alone for long periods of time if at all possible. You and your dog will form a bond when you live your life in such a way that will not quickly be broken.
