Maybe it’s because the ideal dog’s life is to have nothing more than a warm bed, to be fed regularly, and know that there is at least one human who cares and loves them. Or, is it that some dog’s are left out in the cold... literally! Knowing that you care for them, your dog is always delighted to welcome you home. A happy face, a wagging tail, in fact his whole body movement cry out “Hi, I’m so pleased to see you!” When it comes to the sleeping arrangements, some dog owners may allow them to sleep in the same room. This suits a dog just fine, since dogs are pack animals and sleeping in the same area keeps the pack together. In today’s society, dog’s have become completely

They need to know who is the leader or “Alpha Dog”. This is important to a pack animal, since he will naturally try to be number-one, which can become an ongoing battle if not confronted as a puppy. Owning a pet is a lifetime commitment and not a decision to be taken lightly. This could be compared to raising children, which is always for better or worse... and definitely does not involve a local shelter after a few months. Always think about your decision thoroughly beforehand. It is not good enough to claim that you don’t want them any more or just plain changed your mind.

Then there is the other end of the scale. This is where a dog’s life can be very unhappy and very miserable... not loved or cared for properly. Be honest, we’ve all seen dog’s that are poorly kept. They are the ones living out their life on the end of a chain in a cold lonely backyard with the occasional scraps thrown out for them! Their life is a sad continuous “yearning” to have companionship, kindness, love and care. Their lack of training and control leaves them totally confused, not sure who is boss or even what is expected of them. Just think, next time you hear a dog barking endlessly, it’s their cry of sadness, loneliness and a plea for help... all they want is to be part of that home’s “human pack”. A dog asks for
