đOK..NOW WHAT? (your Q & A)
How Dog Parents Are Really Annoying Dogs.

Are we unintentionally annoying our dogs? Hereâs how to tell.
Itâs a fact, that even the most loving dog parents might occasionally rub their pups the wrong way, & not just the fur.
Itâs important to know that being on your dogâs good side is not about being perfect, but learning how to avoid some common pitfalls:
Interrupting their sleep: Ever been woken up mid-dream? Dogs feel just as cranky when we disturb their snooze sessions. (& what gives us the right to complain when they snoređ)
Practicing âsink or swimâ exposure therapy: Tossing them headfirst into scary situations can backfire, slow & steady wins their trust.
Ending walks early: Dogs live for walks (& with that smells!). Cutting them short means less sniffing, exploring, & mental stimulation.
Over scolding them: Saying ânoâ on repeat doesnât work, redirect their energy & reward the good stuff instead.
Letting strangers approach head-on: Imagine random people getting in your face. Dogs appreciate space & polite greetings too. Side-on is best.
Ignoring playtime signals: If your pupâs looking at you like, âHey, play with me!â then itâs time to drop the phone & join the fun. Itâs good for your stress levels as well.
Coddling small dogs: Tiny dogs need independence & training just as much as their larger counterparts, confidence is key.
Ignoring their body language: Ears back, lip licking, tail down, learn their cues so you can avoid stressing them out.
Overusing crates: Not every dog loves being confined, give them options like play pens or baby gates for more wiggle room.
Talking without actions: Dogs arenât hanging on your every word, in fact it can be confusing if you gabble on endlessly. Your body language speaks volumes.
Dogs just want us to show up for them in ways that feel right. Tweak how you interact, & youâll notice happier tail wags in no time.

Skincare All Year. Regularly look past the fur, keeping an eye out for any changes or irritations that can be caused by shampoos & detergents.

đ§FACT or FLUFF??...Answer. FLUFF
Dogs see a series of still images or âjerkyâ flickering when they watch a standard TV because the rate images / frames refresh on the TV, so that they appear as continuous to humans, is lower than what dogs can detect (60HZ vs 75HZ). Modern TVs with higher refresh rates (120HZ) or more offer a smoother viewing experience for dogs.
