CRITERIA FOR CHOOSING DOG CARRIERS




Johnny Depp in one of his sayings described dogs as the only creatures that have evolved enough to express pure love. These lovely creatures do not only play major roles to enrich lives, living with us, playing, safeguarding the home, but also adding inimitable affection to the home and for this reason, they have found a lasting position as part of the family. The U.S. Travel Association in one of its evaluations found out that a reasonable portion of travelers in the U.S. today, consider their companions as part of the family, and a large number take their four-legged friend with them on retreats.



 However, it’s challenging to hop on the plane or another transport system with your pet as it is risky and could possibly endanger the life of your pet and other and passengers, therefore, it is important to consider using a carrier. Furthermore, analysis has shown that a significant number of dog owners often invest for their little or medium-sized pooch to ensure safety during outings to the veterinarian or on vacations and sometimes place their mutt in a carrier when waiting at the subway station, airport or rail terminal. This equipment is the perfect choice to protects the dog and give it a sense of security in an entirely new environment. Therefore, here are some criteria to consider while choosing dog carriers:
Dog size :- 

The dog body size is a crucial factor to consider and if fallacious could bring about accidents that would affect your dog's well-being. Pets experts recommend owners to go for crates or carriers which can accommodate the dog perfectly and would enable it turn around and play easily. However, the most important part of getting the right size carrier is to measure the backbone length from the neck where the collar rests to the base of the tail and add about 3 inches to define the carrier’s length and ascertain the Carrier height by measuring from the ground to the top of shoulders and adding an inch to give room for toys and provided the dimensions are midpoint between sizes it is advisable to go for the bigger dimensions closer to the values obtained.

Weight:-

Weight is an additional factor to reflect on while choosing and it is imperative to select carriers of comparatively feathery mass bearing in mind the stress one might face hauling a heavy carrier while trying to catch up with a bus or flight. Therefore, weight should be used as a guideline only.

Quality:-


The quality of the carrier should be considered even though might be high-priced but in the long run, save time and cost. However, we strongly recommend you get a good-quality carrier.

 Accessibility and comfort:-


Carriers designed with wheels and attachable handles will be of help, provided your dog is hefty, as this equipment will make it stress-free for you to move it through the airport, terminals and passageways.

Security:-


It is important to carry out a thorough check on the carrier to ensure the hinges and locks are strong and durable and made of overlapping steel wire so that the dog can look through it easily. Also, it is crucial to ensure that the door on the pet carrier is not spring-loaded but made of metal latch and firmly secured as spring-loaded door has been known to slam shut, holding up the dog’s tail or foot in the process

Ventilation:-


Ventilation is essential to ensure air circulation in and out of the carrier and for this reason, the door of the carrier should be metal lattice pattern to allow air into the carrier with the sides of the carrier designed to have openings so that dogs can look out and see what is happening in the environs.

Durability and Stability:- 


The material from which the dog carrier is made should be sturdy to keep them from escaping or wandering loose in a public area and to provide some level of protection in case of impact or jarring. However, the carrier should be durable, secure and challenging to knock over.

In Conclusion, it is important for dog owners to ensure the carrier is secure, a comfortable fit with enough space inside to accommodate blanket, toys, and other items, affordable and durable.

Dog Clothes

Agent K-9 aka Spot may have raised the reputation of the federal agency several notches with his stellar performance in the movie of the same name. Unfortunately the agency thought it fit to save on apparel for its top notch K series agents perhaps in the mistaken belief that being a natural would help them sniff out culprits in a better way. However, as a pet owner, you may not expect such rigorous duties from the darling of your house and heart.  Instead, you can pamper him, dress him to the nines and show him off to your friends and possible dog suitors with a sense of sartorial style.

Cute Dog Clothes

The trouble for most puppy lovers is the size and variety of dogs where the usual human sizes and styles would not apply. The Shih Tzu, whose bark could be worse than his bite, may need threads that fit his style and size. The giant Great Dane or the St Bernard may, in dog terms, be beyond XXXLL. A dog may walk in not wearing much except his fur and walk out a fully attired dog gentleman with the canine equivalent of hat, coat, tie and even shoes.

They can also help you look menacing says an expert beach doggies.

10 Ways a Dog Shows Its Love



Studies have shown that since dogs and humans have been intertwined throughout history, they have developed ways to show their love for humans.

But you may be wondering:  How do these dogs show their love?

1.  They Lick You
 http://nextgendog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Why-Do-Dogs-Lick-You-and-Why-You-Should-Stop-Them-From-Licking.jpg
This is an obvious sign of affection dogs and even wolves show - assuming you don't have any sauce on your face that they want to taste. Licking you, especially your face, is a signal of friendliness and submission.

2.  They Wag Their Tails

https://www.pawsitivedoggy.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/perro-moviendo-la-cola-feliz.jpg

A dog can express many different emotions by wagging their tail, and sometimes, it may not be due to being happy.  However, if other signs of comfort are displayed, then you can safely assume that your dog is showing you that they feel happy being with you! A relaxed and non-intense wagging is more likely to be about comfort and happiness than any other emotion.

3.  They Roll Over

http://dogsaholic.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/Roll-over-in-the-house.jpg

When a dog wants a bit of scratching or rubbing on their belly, they tend to roll over.  And who would they want to rub their belly, other than someone they trust? Nobody, so if they let you rub them, it means that they trust you enough to expose their vulnerable belly to you.

4.  They Follow You
 http://blog.dogbitequote.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Dog-Bite-Liability-Do-You-Follow-Proper-Dog-Park-Etiquette.jpg
A devoted dog doesn't want to let their owner go anywhere without them - at least in the first few weeks. If they follow you, it's because they want to feel protected. They are social beings and tend to form packs, and if they follow you often, it more than likely means you’re the pack leader.

5.  They Jump on You

https://static2.shop033.com/resources/18/160536/picture/0D/86364429.jpg

As puppies, they want to lick their mother's face and have to jump in order to so. This behavior persists through adulthood when they see you as their "parent." You might feel uncomfortable when your dog jumps on you, and that's fine, but all they want is to innocently show you their love.

6.  They Play with You

http://www.calboard.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/playwithdog.jpg

Sometimes, your dog will be eager to start "wrestling" with you. This is completely normal since this is a way to create stronger bonds with others. This wrestling can include biting or swiping at you.  While this can be a sign of love to them, it should be toned down to avoid hurting others or unnecessary vet bills.

7.  They Lean on You
 http://www.thatmutt.com/web/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Why-do-dogs-lean-on-you.jpg

If they see you as a person they trust, they will also lean on you occasionally. It's not a thing they do only when they're tired; they do it to show you are the one they can count on.

8.  They Bring You Their Favorite Toy

Bringing their favorite toy to you is their way of saying: "Here, you will like it a lot!" There is nothing more beautiful than sharing, and dogs know it too. The toy might be all torn apart and useless to you, but to them, it may be the most precious thing they have.

9.  They Cuddle with You

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CaorteTXEAAGOOs.jpg

Dogs are not really fond of cuddling, but if they don't get upset when you cuddle with them, then they're just enjoying your company.

10.  They Sleep Next to You
 http://images.sunflower.vn/wp-content/uploads/2015/12/ngu-cung-thu-cung-hinh-anh-02-e1450408160675.jpg
Nothing feels safer than sleeping with someone strong that you can trust, right? Dogs often say yes to this question, too. If they come near you or on your bed while you're sleeping, it's because they want to feel protected.

Pet Obesity: Killing Our Canines With Kindness

Just like their human counterparts, animals are suffering from a growing problem with becoming overweight and obese in today’s society. Recent figures from APOP (Association for Pet Obesity Prevention) share some frightening statistics that show this dangerous dilemma is continuing to rise in our pet population. In the United States, over half of all dogs and almost 60% of cats are considered overweight or obese.

When we pack on a few extra pounds, sometimes it’s barely noticeable, but for dogs, just three pounds can often represent 20% or more of their total body weight. Similar to their two-legged masters, this extra weight also puts them at an increased risk for a number of different diseases and health problems. For dogs, the top ten include:



1.    Arthritis
2.    Bladder and urinary tract diseases
3.    Thyroid and hormone production problems
4.    Liver disease
5.    Torn knee ligaments
6.    Diabetes
7.    Diseased and degenerative discs in their spine
8.    Fatty growths and other tissues
9.    Chronic kidney diseases and failure
10.  Heart disease and failure

This increased weight can put enormous pressure on all of their joints, muscles and other parts of their body including their internal organs. It also causes CCL (cruciate ligament) and hock injuries, leads to carpal hyperextension, along with other painful and problematic conditions that often leads to dogs need to wear braces.

Reducing The Risks

The biggest factor with weight gain in our animals is from feeding them too much, followed closely  by a lack of exercise and activity. Feeding them table scraps, giving them too many treats and leaving a full bowl of kibble out for them all day long are some of the biggest culprits. The only way to reduce the risk of them becoming overweight is feeding them a sensible diet and maintaining a healthy exercise schedule.

Swap Out Treats For Healthier Snacks

As parents of two-legged children, some of us struggle with getting our kids to eat their vegetables, but you might be surprised to find out what healthy alternatives your pet might enjoy. For example, some dogs think carrots are colorful chew toys and will gnaw on them until there’s nothing left. Other healthy treats for dogs include:

     Apples (without the skin and seeds)
     Blueberries and strawberries
     Melons and cantaloupe
     Watermelon (again seedless and without the rind)

Avoid grapes and raisins that contain chemical compounds that are dangerous for dogs. Also steer clear of nuts, tomatoes, and avocados which are also unhealthy for pets.

                                     

 Increasing Activity Levels

While many of us will walk our dogs daily, sometimes this isn’t enough activity to prevent weight gain or help with weight loss. If your dog is already overweight, start out with smaller exercise sessions and work your way up to longer workout routines.

Think outside the box when it comes to exercising your animal. For example, while many breeds enjoy swimming, there’s a rising trend with a canine competition called Dock Diving. These traveling animal contests pit dogs against each other measuring the lengths and heights they can accomplish when running and then diving off the deck of a dock into a portable swimming pool. Even a trip to the lake or other local watering holes can offer them some low impact exercise, especially on a hot summer’s day.

Make sure to always consult your veterinarian before changing your dog’s diet and exercise regimes. I’m sure they’ll agree with healthier eating choices, but depending on factors like age, breed, size and other circumstances, together you can make a plan for the best activity level for your four-legged friend.
