Dogs are lifelong friends.

They’re with us through thick and thin, over the years of our lives. But as they grow older, you might notice them undergo certain changes. They’ll run around and play with us a lot less. But underneath all the greying fur, our pups are exactly the same as they were years ago - just with some small changes!

At this stage, our dogs are reaching the senior stage of their life. What can you do to help older dogs live a happy and healthy life? How do you care for older dogs?

2020 has been a challenging year for most of us, including our furry friends. From not being able to socialise with other doggos during the period of lockdown, to us humans spending too much time with our dogs with working from home, certain behavioural issues that you thought have been long gone or never existed have started to surface - e.g. symptoms of separation anxiety are showing with hoomans heading back to the office to work. We thought this is a great time to remind all you dog parents to stay committed to positive reinforcement dog training in the new year. 

Just like us, dogs learn best with plenty of love, effective use of treats and a whole lot of positive reinforcement. So what exactly is positive reinforcement? How can you train your pup to perform dog tricks? How do you help them curb their bad behaviours? 

We thought it would be a good reminder to all doggo parents this festive season that no matter how tempting it is to treat our dogs to more than their standard fare of regular dog food, you should think twice before doing it.

Most of us would love to give our dog a little holiday cheer by showering them with delicious treats, and in particular, more table scraps. After all, who can resist those puppy eyes? 

Let’s take a look at 5 toxic foods your dog cannot eat, plus great alternatives that are non-toxic and safe for your dogs! 

For almost every pup, the best part of their day is their regular walks. There is no better way to give your pup a treat than to make their favourite part of the day just a little bit more comfortable. The question is: which is better - a dog harness or collar? 

Well, the answer to this is that it depends!

In the battle of dog harness vs collar, it is important to know that collars and dog harnesses are useful for different purposes, and depend a lot on the kind of dog you have. Let’s find out when you should use a collar and when you should use a dog harness!
