As well as being your best friend, your dog will no doubt play a central role in your family. From greeting you home from work to doubling up as your trusted security guard, there is no end to the joy and love your dog provides your household with. This is why in turn, you will want to do all you can to return the favour, going above and beyond to ensure your dog is a happy dog.
Below, we look at a few ways to ensure your dog’s life is a happy one!
Regular walks
Like humans, all dogs need exercise. While there are many advantages to regular walks and runs, exercise actually releases certain endorphins, helping dogs to feel happy and fulfilled!
Good quality dog food
As the saying goes, we are what we eat and for dogs, the food they eat has a significant bearing on their well-being and general health.
Studies have shown that feeding dogs high quality, organic and raw foods boast many advantages, having a huge impact on a dog’s temperament and mood. For this reason, staying away from highly processed foods is advisable.
Be tactile
Playtime is very important for a dog. As well as giving them the attention they crave, being tactile shows them that they are loved and safe in your company; two things that do wonders for their happiness levels.
Regular vet visits
Nothing makes a dog more unhappy than feeling ill. To ensure your pet is always well, regular vet visits are a must! This will make sure any health issues are picked up quickly and your dog’s wellness remains the priority, always!
