TOP DOG!
Next Article
book or checking in on your social media is handy to help pace some time - don't be impatient to leave!). Soon you'll be able to just direct your dog verbally and your dog will easily choose to go to that same place to spend more and more time relaxing.
That your dog has their own place and space is important. The comfort of having their own place will carry over when travelling, camping, when you have company or even when leaving your dog at a boarding kennel. You will also find it's especially handy during these upcoming seasons of the year when things start to get more wet and muddy. As your dog gets wetter and dirtier than usual and has more coat to hold the moisture (and will likely shake all over, given the chance!), you will appreciate that you can send them to their 'place' to dry off comfortably without tracking the damp dirt all over the house or worse, shaking it everywhere!
You may just find that your dog and yourselves will be more peaceful and content overall, each having their own personal, comfortable and reliable place to call their very own, within the home. Enjoy the advantages!
