I
have a pet dog and he usually entertains me by either chasing his tail or going
round and round or by snatching my hand kerchief from my hand and to hide it
under a sofa. Well before my pet came into my life, my first thought was that
he would be my body guard, he would have to answer my commands and I have a
right to beat him if he does some naughty. Not only me but I feel that a lot of
people who still have no experience in having pets will feel like this. Well I
later regretted my decision, for because when I had seen my dog entering into
my house first time, I realized that he was feeling insecure and he was eyeing
on me and my parents for comforts. He was at that time was barely 5 weeks old.
The moment he first entered into my house, he went and hid inside the sofa and
he was crying. My mother used to hate dogs at that time and she had no
experience in handling the pets, so she started to train him with her own
methods, like for example locking in a room during night time and guests, which
I feel is one of the biggest mistake to train a dog. But luckily she stopped it
and she let him loose in our room and he was given more liberty. Thanks to this
method, I have a lovable, adorable, jealous and a loyal dog. I will give you
some few tips to establish a good relationship between dogs.
1)
Allow your dog to be free.
People feel that putting a dog on leash or locking
in a room will make dog more obedient and disciplined. NEVER EVER DO THAT.
Because it will make your dogs more aggressive and more restless and such dogs
tend to bite/attack your neighbours or visitors. Remember one thing that freedom is one of the
important aspects that will mould the character of the dog. This freedom must
be given from the beginning, when it is a small pup. Allow your dog to explore
your house. This will give him a feeling that it is a part of a home not his
work house. This move will make more loyal to the family as well as the house.
You must be aware that dog is a part of a family and not a SERVANT.
2)
Love and pamper.
Well it is really good if you love your dog by
patting him, pampering him; call him in a sweet voice and giving him some
snacks in between. These all treatment will make your dog more happy and loyal
to you. Also you must play with him so that your dog will enjoy your company. (We
usually give him plastic bottles, and he enjoys by crushing it. Money saver and
conservation of the environment!
3)
Give in some treats.
My dog usually hates to bath, so he creates a big
commotion by growling, running and by hiding inside the sofa. But after the
bath we always give him a bowl of milk (as a sign of encouragement) which he
really enjoys. Also my dog hates the combing session, so in order to keep him
quite we give him dog sticks while combing. In this way he really becomes calm
and also will forget the unpleasant experience.
4)
Never leave your dog alone
in your house.
Try to avoid doing such things as frequently as
possible. After all the dog craves you and he won’t appreciate that you are
leaving him alone in the house and having fun!
So my message to you dog lovers that treat your dog as your
kin!
