1. Are you sure about the negative impact of doting?
Speaking of loving dogs, this is something that every poop shoveler will do when he feels hot, but sometimes too much love may have the opposite effect. When the new poop shovelers took the dog home, they frequently showed their attention to the dog, thinking that this would establish a deeper emotional bond with the dog. Unfortunately, this excessive pampering may make dogs develop the habit of relying too much on their owners, making them unable to deal with setbacks and difficulties. In addition, excessive pampering may also make dogs become spoiled and willful, which is not very beneficial to the socialization process of dogs. Therefore, it is important to pamper dogs, but we cannot ignore the determination and wisdom to guide them to learn independence and cultivate their determination and wisdom to face challenges bravely!
2. Can it be okay to not pay attention to dog social activities?
Dogs are born with strong social desires, which not only includes interactions with us humans, but also their communication with other dogs. Newbie shovelers may worry that their dogs will get injured or get sick when going out, thus reducing their chances of going out. It is not good to do this, because it will cause the dog's social desire to be unable to be satisfied, which will cause them to experience psychological distress such as anxiety and depression. In order to ensure that the dog can grow up physically and mentally, it is best to take it out for a walk and attend dog parties regularly, so that it has the opportunity to expand its social circle and satisfy its social instincts!
3. It’s not okay to forget the physical and mental health of the dog!
As new poop shovelers, you often care about your dog's food, drink, defecation, and urination, but often put your dog's physical and mental health behind them. In fact, dogs may encounter various psychological and physiological problems during their growth, such as fear of something, anxiety, joint pain, etc. If these problems are not handled in time, they may affect the quality of life of dogs and even threaten their lives. Dear poop shovelers, you must pay more attention to the emotional changes of your dog. If you find a problem, you must take measures to solve it immediately. For example, if a dog shows fear when facing a specific environment, we can try to use step-by-step exposure therapy to help it serve phobia. Of course, it is necessary to take your dog to have a physical examination regularly, so as to ensure that it is healthy and stay away from diseases.
4. Do not be impatient when training your dog patiently!
Raising a dog is a long-term commitment and requires us to invest a lot of time and effort. As a new poop shoveler, when you start training your dog, you may feel frustrated by your lack of patience and persistence. You may think that dogs can learn various skills quickly, but in the end you ignore the dog's own learning rhythm. In fact, dogs need time to learn. We must be patient, encourage and praise dogs from time to time, and help them gradually master new skills. In addition, it is also very important to understand the dog's learning habits and choose scientific and effective training methods, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
5. Don’t ignore respecting the personality of a dog!
Every dog has its own unique personality and preferences, but we novice dog shovelers often ignore this fact and try to forcibly instill their own ideas into dog babies. For example, some dog shovelers may prefer lively and active dogs, while others are naturally introverted and like to stay quietly. In this case, let us respect the personality of dogs as much as possible and develop appropriate training plans based on their characteristics; in this way, they can thrive in a relaxed and natural environment and become reliable friends in our lives.
