Dealing with a difficult dog.

Your Dog is not difficult.

Your dog is not difficult, believe it or not...its You!

     Have you ever wondered what's missing between you and your dog? 

Your dog is your baby. But it's very important to remember the instinctual aspects of your relationship with your dog. Animals follow certain energy. That is what your dog will respond to. That's right energy, energy is the key to everything between you and your dog. 

     The philosophy if you want to heal or repair something you need to go back to the basics, same as your dog. To reconnect,. Remember Steve Jobs said he wants to change the world? That's right and you want to reconnect is the world in this case is your dog. So when you talk to your dog of course it's a good thing to have a conversation is your dog and it brings you satisfaction to you, the owner. But it's not a good idea to be emotional when your dog gets emotional two also, like for example if your dog starts to make noises with his voice and you start to mimic those noises, it's absolutely not A good idea. That only makes the dog to remain in that state of mind. 

     So your dog becomes confused or difficult?  

Before you even go to the whole thing off loving your dog you have to have a love for the species of the dog that you have. And the banning the aggressive breed does not solve the problem at all, that is in case you have a aggressive breed.
   In the 70s it was a Dauberman,  that people were frayed off and now it's a pitbull. What does it say to you? One thing, that society has not changed its fears. You have to show the dog that you are a leader believe it or not that is what the instinct is all about. Dog does not understand that you are rude to him or anything like that, unless you  start to hurt him, The dog needs to see a leader,  leader of the pack, that he must respect and give her space to. This is how you can change your dog's manners and bad behavior.  Don't scream, don't yell, but be a leader,  and you will see very soon that thing changed. That's a guarantee.

What's your story?
As always be safe and enjoy your pet, and leave your comments, questions, etc!

Dog Shedding Coats.

Shedding dogs.

Its all important with a double coated dogs to stay within the grooming schedule.

Which is more important for double coated breeds with shedding coats.

Some of the breeds with a double coat include: German Shepherd. Akita, Alaskan Malamute,Shiba Inu. And the grooming technics are similar.

Dogs with  shedding coats.

These breeds have harsh top coat , and a very soft undercoat. Some doublepcoated dogs can produce body oil, which can smell, and this is why they should be bathed on a regular basis.

Double coated dogs must  be bathed between every week to every couple of months, depending on the dog.

  Mobile Pet Spa uses waterless spray while moisturizing the coat to prevent shedding in time. Its a shampoo that get sprayed directly onto the coat of your dog and works by removing dirt and  extra fur. The best thing is that you don’t need to wash it off

and your dog’s coat will smell nice and fresh.

  Waterless spray is an easy and simple alternative to bathing a large dog. The outer coat is harsh to touch but the inner coat is dense and thick to protect the dog from harsh weather.

These dogs could be brushed at home with a harsh sliker brush which you can easily buy at pet shops. This brush works well by removing the dead hair, which, otherwise will end up all over your furniture.

When bushing the furry breeds pay a special attention to the color and the back area of the animal.

The reason for that is that the undercoat is much thicker around the neck and the back of the dog

When you bath your dog use a good quality shampoo or a conditioner and a detangling solution  to make it easier to brush thru the dense coat.

 Never leave your dog wet after bathing, cause weather could leave your dog smelly and cause skin infections. In the summer, when its hot, don’t shave your dog, as a top coat keeps him cool, and if you shave it off the dog could have a heat stroke.

Pet Allergies.

How to treat pet allergies?

Pet allergies are a concern for many people. To be successful in treating pet allergies is exposure. You must have a pet in a non sleepy  environment of the patient. Thats ideal.

     The pet cannot be allowed to jump on upholstery furniture, so the dandruff does not become part of the furniture.                                                                                                                                                       The household should not have carpeting, because the carpet serves as a reservoir for that pet dander, and dust mice.

Pet Food.

Today's pet food consists of Sophisticated nutritional science.

Its about protein, carbs, vitamins and minerals a well balanced diet. 

Want to bet some cats and dogs  eat healthier than their owners? 

The food formula for cats and dogs differ because dogs and cats have different nutritional requirements. Cats need more fat and protein in their diets than dogs do.

But the basic ingredients are similar. 

Serial,  wheat and rice. Workers weigh everything, blend it in mixer, grind it til they have it in the form of a powder. Then, the special machines transform it into a bite size pet food. Under high pressure its then shaped. A spinning knife cur=ts it into pieces . And it could turn into different shapes, like rounds, flower, or a star.

 Next stop a high air dryer for 25 minutes. It heat the pieces at 325 degrees Fahrenheit, to take out the moisture. Then they sprayed with flavoring that gives appetizing odor and taste, for pets that is.

 Then the pieces they go into storage for packaging and bagging.  

       The pet food industry does its research before anything else.

The cats and dogs are not so crazy about dry food. Its too hard to chew or too  mashy. 

If the pieces are too small they will swallow them without chewing, and not digest them properly. But if the pieces are too big they will gag on it and turned off to the food all together. So the automated scale weigh the exact quantity per package. 

 Shelf life is from 6-12 months depending on the formula.

 Pet food experts say dogs and cats prefer food with fatier content  and a combined meat and serial formula, than just serial alone.

 But too much meat flavor can turn them off. Cats are more particular they favor acidic food, and dogs like sweets too.

 And you thought that your kids are  fussy eaters??

Many dogs and cats around?

With so Many dogs and cats around.

 Mobile Pet Spa  is one of  ways we show compassion for the animals .  You can groom a pet and being gentle, respectful, and without sacrificing quality and thoroughness.

I know  from personal experience with my own pets.

. Anything over an hour and a half fatigues them. They have some difficulty standing on the grooming table. The risk of injury is much higher simply because they are not as steady, strong, or sturdy as they once were. That is where GroomersOnWheels.com comes in .

Many dogs and cats benefit from minimizing the amount of time they spend in the grooming process.

• Some  dogs do not have the patience span to deal with prolonged grooming sessions when they are first being introduced to the process.
• Many pets are “so attached to their owners” that they get stressed  when  outside of their home . The sooner you can get them back to their owners and into their home, the more comfortable they are.
• So, grooming an aggressive    or a stressed dog in a , respectful manner in the least amount of time is a must.
• Older dogs may not have  the physical ability to to go to grooming salons. That is why Mobile Pet Grooming was invented.  and Hey, why not? It is convenient  and not as costly Regardless of whether it is a full brush-out or a haircut these are my time goals for pets being groomed every 4-6 weeks.
• When looking for a groomer, always look for a groomer near me ( means you). That is reliable, experienced and with a good manners.

 Dog groomers could be difficult to deal with, or not reliable. 

Do your own rcsearch. And ask questions, always!
