Dogs and Owners Both Need a Good Night's Rest

If it's bedtime in your house and your dog insists on sleeping on your bed, you may not be getting the rest you need. Dogs can be quite pushy leaving people tired and unable to get a good nights sleep. The solution is to train a dog to sleep separately from the first day it arrives at your home.  Establishing where everyone sleeps from the start will make both you and your dog happier in the long run.  Just like children, pets do not know what's best for them, and as a owner you need to make good decisions that benefit you both.

The best place for a new dog to sleep is in a crate.  Most new dogs needs to have a safe place to call their own, and a crate accommodates that need too.  It helps establish sleep time rules and gives them a place they can feel safe in their new environment.

Remember, If you are crowded in bed, so is your dog. Once a crate is routine, you'll both be better off.  If you are looking for more information on specific dog training troubles, schedule an appointment with Marietta Vet Clinic, and +Julian Peckich DVM would be happy to suggest training techniques.  If you need to find a veterinarian, a local veterinarian and are in Marietta, GA, look no further.  You have found us.

Let's Make it a Good Day, New Dog Owners

Being a new dog owner brings incredible joy, as a new dog generates natural feelings of love instantaneously.  However, not long after reality sets in.  Dogs not only bring joy, but plenty of work too, and if you allow your new pet to rule the house, you will soon  feel over-whelmed. The sooner you get serious about training your new pet, the better. 

Most people could use a little advise on training, so a good way to start is to sign up for a local pet training class.  Stores such as Petsmart offer affordable classes for groups.  The classes teach you to be in command of your pet and the house.  They also give opportunity to discuss any unique problems you are having with accredited pet training instructors.  

If you decide to take on a new dog, decide to train.  It'll be a good decision for your home.  Feel free to call our Marietta animal clinic with any further questions.
