Dog walking is something that "dog shovelers" have to do every day. Some people may think that it is such a simple thing to walk a dog, but someone else can’t do it? Walking a dog is a seemingly simple little thing, but it is also a science. Many people do not master the correct skills, and inappropriate walking methods will only hurt the dog and affect others. The following precautions for dog walking are important for dog owners!
When walking the dog, you must leash it
First of all, you must keep a certain distance from others when walking the dog. Legging the dog is a basic common sense, but many people cannot do it. Some people think that their dog is small, has a gentle personality and can't bite people, so they want to let it run on the road without using ropes to restrain the dog. This is actually a very wrong idea. Walking a dog leash can not only protect your dog from accidents, but also avoid causing trouble to passers-by who are afraid of dogs.
When walking a dog, you should tie the rope and keep a certain distance. If the person who comes from the front tries to take the dog around as much as possible, you should also separate the dog from the pedestrian by yourself, and tighten the leash to allow the dog to stick to him, giving others a sense of security.
Don't be half-hearted when walking a dog
Do not be half-hearted when walking a dog. Many dog owners like to play with their mobile phones or chat with others when walking the dog. Some poop shovelers will tie their dogs to the side of the road only if they have something to do. This is a very unpromoted practice. Once your attention is distracted, if the dog encounters the car or the rope breaks and accidentally runs away, the owner will regret it.
Pay attention to the frequency and method of walking the dog
Half an hour of dog walking every day is the best for dogs. It can not only exercise the dog, but also consume energy and reduce the behavior of destroying the house. However, many "poop shovelers" are too busy with work, keeping their dogs in cages from Monday to Friday, increasing their dog walking time on weekends, and overloading their dogs. This approach is very wrong! If you don’t have time to walk your dog, it will cause the dog to exercise inadequately. When you go on weekends, it will cause a lot of exercise to cause a lot of burden on the dog’s heart, ligaments, joints, etc., and muscle strains and fractures are very likely!
In addition, some "cat shovelers" like to ride bicycles and walk their dogs, and there are even "bike-riding artifacts" sold online. This is also very dangerous, because once the bike is too fast or the direction is not grasped properly, it is easy to get the dog involved in the tire or hit the dog.
When walking your dog, you must be civilized
When walking your dog together, someone will not get on the elevator first, and take the dog into the elevator when there is no one in the next elevator. If you get on the elevator first and someone follows up, you should tighten the leash and separate the dog from others to avoid scaring people who are afraid of the dog.
When walking your dog, you must carry toilet paper and plastic bags with you. Generally, dogs will urinate and drown after going out for exercise. They should lay toilet paper in advance. It is best not to touch the ground. After the end, they should be placed in a plastic bag and tied and thrown into a special trash can.
Being responsible pet owners is also an important task to walk the dog. Legging on the dog is a legal provision. Scientific and civilized dog walking is a necessary quality for dog owners. Have you got it?
