You lost a special someone, failed a promotion, experienced a family problem, or lost a job. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Still, your dogs are always there at the most challenging point of your life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They help you forget, make you happy, become a better version of yourself, get stronger than ever, and appreciate life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, it is time to give back. If you have been together for years now, you, of course, want the best for your buddies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But it is a bit tricky how to make them happy. We understand you, and we feel the same way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is why we gather some of the things that will make your dogs joyful and energetic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s dive into it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
Dogs love treats, and there are many delicious choices to pick from online and offline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But if you have some spare time, it is always good to homemade prep treats for them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The question is, what type of treats would your dogs enjoy? Well, there\u2019s a wide variety for your buddies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If your Golden Retriever or Labrador loves peanut butter, why don\u2019t you surprise them with peanut butter treats? Good idea! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But what if you are a terrible cook? Could you still make it good? Definitely! There is nothing to worry about. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Peanut butter treat is a simple recipe. All you need to use are 2 cups of flour, two eggs, and a half cup of peanut butter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s it! Then, mix every ingredient. Be sure to add enough water until it is easy to roll out as dough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If they are allergic to peanuts, there are other excellent alternatives to try. How about chicken dog treats? The ingredients include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you do not have extra chicken in your fridge, beef is a good substitute. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
Do you have an energetic breed of dogs like Border Collie, Labrador Retriever, Cocker Spaniel, Belgian Malinois, Standard Poodle, Siberian Husky, Australian Cattle Dog, Bernese Mountain Dog, or Jack Russell Terrier? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If yes, you are probably exhausted and confused about keeping up with their energy level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do not worry. You are not alone. Other pet owners experience the same thing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While many things run in your mind, buying them with some toys is worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But what specific toys should you invest in and purchase? Good choices include balls, rope toys, puzzle toys, chew toys, treat-dispensing toys, and stuffed toys. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But be careful when looking for options. Instead of taking advantage of the cheapest brands, be willing to spend more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Invest in something that\u2019s the highest quality possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Besides keeping your buddies active, toys can help alleviate their boredom, promote healthy teeth\/gums, stimulate intelligence, facilitate development, provide companionship, build independence, and love you more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But do not leave them alone. Play with them as much as possible. You would also find it fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What if you have a busy schedule? Can you play with your buddies? Of course! Everything is possible if you want it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
Another thing that would make your dogs happy is by giving them high-quality, nutrient-packed, and delicious pet food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But that does not mean you need to change your buddies\u2019 food right away. Introduce new food systematically and gradually. There\u2019s no need to rush. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Changing their diet at once increases their risks of suffering from diarrhea, indigestion, and other serious health conditions. As a pet owner, you do not want to happen. So, take your time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whether your dog gets pickier lately or you are planning to look for another brand of pet food, there are different options you should consider. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But you are perhaps overwhelmed by the variety of choices regardless of your experience as a pet owner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While there is much information to narrow down and handle, spend time reading food labels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But the data can be misleading sometimes. The trick is to look for companies that meet or exceed the AFFCO guidelines or use the finest ingredients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, choose any meat-based item. Also, avoid products that contain excess preservatives and fillers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But if you still find it confusing, nothing can beat the services of a licensed and certified professional. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
After a tiring day, your dogs need some rest. But the floor is cold, and the carpet is not thick enough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let them relax and have a quality night\u2019s sleep in cozy bedding to be ready for another day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When they have enough time to rest, they will not be lethargic, weak, and moody. Comfortable bedding can indeed make them happy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A cozy bed will keep your pup warm, prevent calluses, support arthritis, and avoid anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But what kind of bedding to invest in and provide your dogs? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like toys, bedding comes in various types and styles, including flat pads, snuggle beds, best beds, bolsters, homemade beds, waterproof beds, and donut-shaped beds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, you want something cheap and of good quality? Mats or flat pads will be your best bet. It will keep your pets comfortable without causing you a fortune. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you want something unique, donut-shaped beds should be on top of your buying list. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They are stylish and stunning worthy of your recommendations to your close friends and relatives. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If your puppies have medical needs or are seniors, heated, orthopedic, and coat-style beds are for you. You would make your dogs the happiest pets ever. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
Like humans, dogs are made up of 80% of water. Without enough water, your buddies will get lethargic and dehydrated. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bring back their energy and happiness with fresh and clean water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Water would help your dogs function, flush toxins, regulate body temperature, and restore their sniffing power. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But how much water do dogs need? It depends on different factors, including the weather, size, activity level, and age. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Generally, they need to drink at least 8.5 ounces of water per 10 pounds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That means a 50-pound pooch requires around 42 ounces of liquid to stay hydrated and happy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If they are too active, they need more water. Place a bowl of water in a spot where they can easily reach and access it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Be sure to replenish their water bowl regularly. If you take a walk with your dogs or it is summer season, let them drink enough water they need every day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When your dogs suffer from dehydration, do not let them untreated for a few hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The best thing to do is to consult a certified, licensed, and experienced vet. Any guesswork will not help. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While it requires extra costs, your dogs\u2019 safety is what matters the most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
Nothing would make dogs with light or thin coats of fur happier with a cozy and fashionable dress during the winter season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The extreme cold weather is not manageable for light-coated dogs without a sweater. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That is why you see chihuahuas bundled up during the long cold season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can do the same thing with your Beagle, Belgian Malinois, Basset Hound, Basenji, Anatolian Shepherd dog, and other breeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Aside from protecting them from the weather, dogs\u2019 clothes will enhance their looks and make them more adorable than you have expected. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But choosing the right clothes for your puppies is not easy. You perhaps get confused about the variety of options on the market. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have a senior or sensitive dog, look for quality fabric, including fleece, knits, blends, and cotton. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many pet owners are comfortable with blends. You can also follow the trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apart from the fabric, consider the size of your dog. If you have Mastiff or Great Dane, pick clothes made for large breeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They should neither be too loose nor tight. Opt for the best size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another thing to consider is your budget. Whether you are on a tight budget or are willing to spend more on a fashionable dress, there are cheap and luxury brands for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n
Our time, love, and attention are the most important things that could keep our dogs happy and healthy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A cuddle and a caress on their head mean a lot to our puppies. Spending our time with our dogs is the best thing we could ever give to them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
But how to maximize our time with them? Have you ever tried working out together? Not yet? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This time is a perfect opportunity. You can take a walk with them, hike in the dog park, or have a bike ride together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It not only strengthens your relationship but also helps both of you stay fit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can also schedule playdates for the two of you. Get their toys for indoor or outdoor play. Vary your game to incite their interest and attention, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Plus, you can make grooming a new bonding experience. While there are certified grooming professionals to hire, you can do the process yourself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
