Love is ...........

Valentine's Day is all about LOVE,
but what does love mean to your DOG?
An extra helping of food | or | Keeping a healthy weight and a long walk in a new place |
Another new toy to play with by himself | or | A game with him and you with the old toy |
Being kept on the lead because he won't return to you | or | Teaching recall so he can have freedom to enjoy running |
Being protective with other dogs and not letting him mix | or | Teaching him to socialise with his own kind |
Pamper and give in to his every demand | or | Giving him correction and reward at the right times, affection for the right reason, thereby creating respect |
THE ABOVE WILL RESULT IN EITHER: | ||
BEHAVIOURAL PROBLEMS, HEALTH PROBLEMS AND ANXIETY AND STRESS FOR YOU BOTH | or | AUTHORITY, RESPECT AND HAPPINESS FOR YOU AND HIM |
Between a millionaire's dog and a street person's dog it is usually the latter whose dog is the happiest and most balanced. Your dog doesn't care what he looks like or whether he has the most expensive toys on the market; he does care that he gets the right food, exercise, health care and training.
