Happy New Year! Start the Year off Right
As we approach the New year, many of us like to take this opportunity to set goals and resolutions. While it’s easy to focus on our own goals for the coming year, it’s also important to consider how you can make 2017 a bit brighter for your pup. We encourage you to resolve to start off the New Year on the right foot, for both you and your fur baby.
Get Fit
Are you making plans to drops some weight in the new year? Perhaps you’re aiming to get in better physical condition? If so, why not include your dog in the challenge? Choose physical activity that both you and your pup can enjoy together. From jogging to hiking, there are many activities that can give you both the exercise you need. While you’re focusing on your waistline, what about your dog’s? During your last vet visit, did they comment on your pup’s weight? If your dog is also carrying some extra pounds, this is the perfect time to get fit together.
Practice Your Dog Training Skills
One of the best ways to bond with your pup is to practice your dog training skills. Dogs are natural pleasers, they enjoy the act of completing a task and receiving praise. At Sit Means Sit we truly believe that an obedient dog is a happy and confident dog. In 2017 we encourage you to resolve to fine-tune your dog training skills and to add some new ones into the mix. Challenge yourself and your pup to master more skills in the coming year.
Stay Consistent
Just as your New Year’s resolution requires consistency, so too does your dog training. If you are aiming to help your dog master new skills in 2017, taking the time to work together is essential. Set the time aside, each and every week, to work on your dog training skills and reinforce their good behavior.
There you have it, by taking these simple tips to heart you and your dog will be on track to enjoy a happy and healthy 2017!
