To walk a dog.
To walk a dog.
It is better to walk a dog in the place where you can easily see it all the time. As a rule, it should be the place far from the roads. It is recommended not to take it to the specially equipped parks first time. There a dog can get some bad manners and even get a very dangerous disease. Besides, the psychological connection with the owner can be interrupted.
It is always harder to manage a dog in the street. It obeys worse and slowly follows the orders. There are a lot of additional objects outside that distract the dogs from the orders of the owner. An owner should always be ready for some unexpected cases. But all the orders should be followed as at home as outside, because sometimes a dog can't do the tricks outside that are easily done at home.
Many people think that a dog will develop and be more active in the company of other dogs. But in reality it depends only on individual features of every dog. The best way to keep your dog active is to walk with it constantly. But still it is necessary to watch carefully how much you walk with your pet.
You should give more freedom to the pet outsides, you shouldn't disturb it constantly giving the orders and calling its attention. Sometimes it is recommended to hide for a moment, then a dog will get used to watch you even when it is busy with something.
You shouldn't let your child walk the dog. While walking with children dogs get lost more often. In the system of relations a dog always puts a child on the last position. That is why it doesn't obey a child. A dog always plays with a child with pleasure but doesn't want to obey it. Besides, a dog is stronger than a child. And if it starts to run a child is not able to hold on the dog.
That is why it is recommended for the owner to walk the dog. The other members of the family mustn't train and educate the dog. They should only walk with it.
When a puppy is already a month it is possible to walk it. It should last 10-15 minutes. The main aim is not to walk it but to make it get used to walk at the same time and to organise it. If you have the possibility to take it outdoors right after the sleep, it is better to do it. When a dog is a year old it may be walked 2-3 times a day.
You should walk your dog before feeding. Doctors recommend giving some physical exercises to dogs during the walk so that they could feel tired after it.
It is also recommended to take the dog with you if you are going to the country. During such trips a dog will study the way it should behave in the car, in transport, in populated places. It won't be afraid of crowd and loudly places.
