Dogs will instinctively try to protect or warn you when there is danger. Some dogs are fearless and will ferociously defend their owners by sacrificing their very own lives.
Dogs are multi-faceted action heroes. Some dogs are trained to safely guide the blind from place to place, to secure perimeters as guard dogs, to control large numbers of animals, such as cows, sheep, etc. In certain very cold remote areas dogs are trained to haul sledges — often the only means of transportation.
Dogs do magnificent jobs in Law Enforcement. They are trained to detect cocaine, marijuana and other illegal drugs. In Forensics, they sniff out bombs, the presence of blood, dead bodies and follow scents leading to the apprehension of many bad people. In the field of Medicine dogs can be used to detect cancer in human beings.
The list of a dogs accomplishments seems never-ending. It is extraordinary how proficient dogs can be and this is shown in many different ways.
Each and every contribution dogs have made to help mankind is remarkable and I could go on and on. However, a Dogs role as a pet is undoubtedly the greatest of all and will remain unsurpassed. In fact the lives of many dog owners would be incomplete without their dogs. Dog-gone it.
Dogs are loved. They are indeed mans best friends. While we celebrate our devotion and love for our pets, there is an issue we should contemplate. Here it is. All animals, dogs and cats in particular have their individual instinctive behavior which should remain intact, this is just an opinion.
We should not strive to modify a dogs natural instinct to bark, or growl or whine, or the cats meow. Let the dogs bark and the cats meow, this is how they communicate, just as a baby uses cry before it achieves the ability to speak. Let’s all join in and strongly proclaim “Pet Power is in the House. Thank you. Thank you.
However, dog training and dog grooming is very important and should be a priority.
Successful dog training is very satisfying. It generates a strong sense of an accomplishment quietly shared between owner and pet. It is not difficult and the process is very straight-forward. A little extra patience is required and selecting the most suitable training method for a specific dog is a major step in successfully accomplishing the task.
Several methods may be used to train a dog. The most popular being the Treat Reward System, followed by the Praise Reward System and a few others. They all consist of simple instructions that are quite easy to follow.
The importance of grooming your pet should not be overlooked. All pets should be groomed on a regular basis and pets with long hair require more frequent attention. Regular grooming not only keeps you and your pet happy as he/she shows off a well maintained coat but it also helps to detect health issues that might otherwise go unnoticed.
