That's right, this is one of those moments where we can claim "We are only human." As human beings we show how greatly we care for another human being with affection, affection and more affection. More often than not, we carry this concept over to our dogs. Here's a great tip...DON'T DO THAT! It's fine to give our dogs affection, in some ways, it's natural, but only at the right time and for the right reasons. Think, for a moment, in the simple way your dog--your domesticated animal--thinks. As a dog, there are certain things of importance in your life; Eat, sleep, dominate, submit, procreate and be a part of a pack. When all of these, more important issues, are taken care of; When our belly's are full, our pack is safe, our genes are passed on and everyone is in there appropriate hierarchical place...we may now enjoy some inter-pack affection...because we have EARNED it. Do you see where I'm coming from?

For more questions email us, we'll be more then happy to elaborate, answer questions and/or set up a consultation if you'd like.

May all your migrations me merry!
