Doggie Do's

This is just a hodge podge section where I can put anything you should do with your dog.
1. Get an electrical fence. This definitely keeps them in, and makes sure that they don't want to get out, in fear of being shocked.
2. Do one command three or for times for training at a time. If you do too many, your dog may get sick from treats.
3. Don't abuse your dog. If you treat it well, but make it known that you're the boss, you're dog will be happier and healthier, but still obey you.
4. Don't make your dog's favorite spot up high. This will make them think that they're the leader of the pack.
5. Give your dog frequent walks. You're dog has all the energy, and needs to use it somewhere. If you don't want your dog runnning around in circles in your house, then take your dog for frequent walks.
6. When your dog is smelly, give it a bath! This is pretty much a DUH statement, but it's true. And don't think that you can just give it a quick rinse off and leave it for a year. Dogs are like peole , and need baths, too. Also, they roll around in whatever smells "good" to them. Don't disipline your dog when they're stinky, because they're trying to please you.
7. Brush your dog frequently. My dog doesn't shed, so when she needs a brushing, she really needs it. Brushing also makes your dog's coat shine.
