Description

Dogs are both loyal and playful pets to have around; however, dogs are also pets that require a lot of work and patience to take care of. They bark, they run around, they dig, they chew, and they can occasionally wreck some parts of your house. Nevertheless, we love dogs as they are our favorite companions.

Yet, the question is, how do we take care of them? Most dog owners have asked this question when they first brought their dog home. Not only do you need to watch over your dog, but you also have to train and exercise him. You need to know the best and most efficient way of taking care of your dog, especially when you're not around.

Since every breed is different, this book will cover the basis of how you should treat your dog regardless of the type of breed you own. Pretty soon, your dog will be doing fun tricks like shake or roll over and you'll have exclusive bragging rights as a dog owner.

Introduction
Pets are not only cute but they also make a great companion to have around whether you’re feeling lonely or you just want to liven up your house.
Each pet is different and while some can be lazy and quiet, dogs, on the other hand, are very lively pets to have around the house.
Of course, it’s probably going to take more effort to take care of a dog than any other type of animals.
Dogs bark. They bark a lot and they bark loudly. They can bark in the middle of the night or as early as 6 A.M. in the morning.
Granted, you will become very annoyed when they do that but, in the end, they won’t stop unless you properly train them to stop.
Likewise, like all humans, dogs need their potty breaks. However, they’re not going to do it in the restroom like all other humans.
If your dog is untrained, his potty break is going to be all over the house, especially if you’re the type that allows your dog to be indoors.
It’s a lot easier for pet owners to handle their dogs when the pet is outdoors most of the time, but the point of a pet is to have them with you so you have to remember to let him in from time to time. This is where the training comes in.
If you’re buying a puppy, they’ll be a lot easier to train because their instincts have yet to completely take over.
If you’re buying a grown dog, they’ll be much harder to train because they’ll be used to their old routine and it’ll be difficult to change their habits.
Of course, it’s not always the age that matters when choosing a dog. When you’re buying any type of pet it’s especially important to decide the place of where you’ll be buying them from.
Granted, if you’re buying a dog from a pound, they will be harder to train. If you’re buying a puppy from a pet store, they might be easier to train.
Every factor you take into consideration before choosing and buying a dog will decide how that dog will act once you’ve brought it home.
You won’t have to worry though; any dog can be trained through effort, time, and determination.
Remember, whatever dogs do, they do it to please you.
The Basics
Before you can decide what type of dog you would want to have, you have to realize how much free time you have on your hands.
Having a dog around the house is a fun idea at first, but you have to take other factors into consideration.
You have to understand that when you decide to own a dog, you have to care for it.
Not only do you have to feed your dog on a regular basis, you also have to clean up his mess, train him, take him out on walks, make sure that he doesn’t try to escape from your house, buy him a name tag and some toys for him to play with when you’re not around, and make sure that he takes frequent visits to the vet for check-ups.
All of these factors may not take up a lot of your time, but it is enough to take up the majority of it.
Doggy years are shorter than human years so you want your dog to live with you for as long as he can.
You have to consider how much time you’re willing to dedicate into raising your dog. If you’re the type who’s constantly busy all the time, it’s probably best if you were to wait out your decision for a little longer, especially when you’re planning on buying a young puppy.
Puppies, unlike dogs, are more hyperactive and will take a great amount of your time. They are, however, easier to train but that doesn’t mean that they won’t mess around while you’re trying to train them.
You’re going to need a lot more energy trying to raise a puppy than a dog so if your job wears you out by the end of the day, keep your decisions on hold.
There are many types of different breeds of dogs out there. When you’re about to choose, pick one that fits you the most.
For instance, Chihuahuas are known to be very hyperactive dogs despite it’s tiny size. If you’re constantly worn out by the end of the day, choosing a Chihuahua as a pet isn’t the way to go.
Don’t bother trying to ask someone to help take care of your pet for you when you’re not around. If it’s necessary then that’s fine, but if you’re constantly doing it then there’s no point in owning a pet in the first place.
The point of buying a dog is for you to be able to establish a bond with it. Your dog isn’t going to be able to get to know you at all if you keep leaving it at a stranger’s place.
