7 Common Mistakes Pet Owners Keep Making

We all are nearly and dearly attached with our pets! But do we know some common mistakes we usually make? Let me tell you some of them...

1. Picking the wrong dog - We get too excited and lose our patience when we're about to get a dog! But in this excitement we don't even decide to pick the correct dog, and then we curse our own faith...So if you're getting a dog, keep in mind to choose the right one.

2. Dismissing Training and Socialization - Socialization is very crucial for a dog. But, if you don't socialize the dog with everyone then this will be a trouble for you, since this will cause too much shyness or aggressiveness in a dog.

3. Not Offering Enough Exercise and Activity - Just like humans, exercise for a dog is very essential for the dog to stay healthy. You can generally know when your dog is lacking exercise when he or she becomes bored, lethargic, or frustrated. This can manifest itself as destructive behaviour or aggression!

4. Avoiding the Veterinarian - Now if you skip a veteranian for your dog then the dog may suffer from any disease which can shorten your lil' furry friend's life!

5. Skipping Heartworm Prevention - Monthly heartworm preventives should be given every 30 days. If you skip or delay giving your dog even one dose, then he/she will be at risk of infection.

6. Neglecting Dental Health - Dental Disease Increases the Risk for Dog Heart Disease. The heart and liver are especially prone to developing inflammation from dental disease. There is evidence that periodontal disease is linked to cardiopulmonary diseases like endocarditis, according to the World Small Animal Veterinary Association (WSAVA).

7. Feeding Improperly - We know, every living thing needs food and water for survival. Could you imagine your mother not giving you food properly? No right? Same with our little fur balls... They also need food for their survival.

Thankyou!
