Puppies are like children. They can get into unimaginable difficulties when their environment is not structured. Here is a basic checklist of environmental hazards:

- Puppies can open loose cupboard doors. Buy cupboard door protectors or get out the good old duct tape and make sure that the cupboards that are low either cannot be broken into or do not contain hazardous elements!

- Puppies can chew light cords. Arrange your home so that light cords, TV cables, computer cords, and so on, are hidden behind heavy immovable furniture or are enclosed behind barriers.

- Large Breed puppies can put their front feet onto all the counters. Push back items that they can get into, take them off the counters, or be prepared to have your most valuable items (such as your TV remote control) dragged off and chewed!

Generally speaking, a dog over the age of 8 is considered "old". Depending on the breed, your dog's lifespan will be anywhere from 7 to 17 years. A dog's "middle age" is usually from age 4 to 8, anything after that is a bonus and your dog is in "old age". Start your dog's "senior" years off by having a vet exam once yearly, so that you can keep pace with any condition that might develop. None of this article is intended to replace good veterinary care, which is your best insurance that your dog will live to a ripe old age.  

All through life keep your dog at its optimum weight and do not allow it to become fat. Obesity is the biggest cause of other major health concerns in the dog, such as kidney and liver malfunction, diabetes and arthritis. Don't give too many treats - this will add pounds! If you do treat your dog a lot, give it pieces of its own kibble and deduct that amount from the amount you feed.  Do not "self-feed", this can lead to digestive problems.  Feed twice daily or once daily and pick the food up that is not eaten.  This is also the best way to regulate the amount you are feeding your dog.

The monsoon is here, with cool mornings (only made better by hot cups of tea), pleasant breezes and showers to wash away the heat of the summer. During these chilly mornings and nights, the snuggle-appeal of your furry pet rises phenomenally. Besides these pleasant occasions, something else creeps your way in the wet season. They’re clever, they’re many-legged and the mention of them will probably give you paranoid goose bumps – ticks! These mites thrive in humid weather and are very likely to hitch a ride on your pet any chance they get.
