 Diet and Nutrition for Dogs
Posted by dillondog on Wednesday, December 2, 2009 @ 06:58 PM GMT (180 reads)
In my daily work as a dog behaviourist I always cover the subject of the dog’s diet with my clients. In some cases a change of diet alone can make a noticeable difference in the dog’s behaviour.
Go in to an average well stocked pet store and you’re likely to be overwhelmed with glossy packaging and numerous varieties of dog food available. The price range also varies immensely and as a rough rule of thumb- you get what you pay for. Your dog’s diet forms the building blocks and repair material for it’s daily activities, so skimping on this critical element can not only lead to poor behaviour, but offers the potential for health issues in further life.

Top Tips for a Pet Perfect Christmas
Posted by dillondog on Monday, November 16, 2009 @ 02:48 PM GMT (232 reads)
PurinaPR writes "Christmas for many is a time of guilt-free over indulgence - an opportunity to eat one too many mince pies, gobble an abundance of chocolate and add that extra dollop of brandy butter on the Christmas pudding.
For pet owners, the desire to treat ourselves during the festive season, can translate into a tendency to over-feed our pets, often with human food, which is not only highly calorific, it can also be extremely dangerous.

An agile dog is a happy dog
Posted by dillondog on Thursday, November 12, 2009 @ 04:58 PM GMT (227 reads)
This video demonstrates the benefits of dog agility for both you and your four-legged friend
Dogs have always been known as man’s best friend.
With long walks in the park and nights cuddled up in front of the TV, the relationship we share with our canine companion is a special one.
Simple dog agility exercises can be an ideal way to develop even further the bond you have with your pet as well as improve your dog’s obedience and behaviour. And it’s not only an enjoyable way to not only improve your dog’s health and fitness, but yours too!
Best of all, it’s easy to do and absolutely anyone can give it a go.
Pet owners can use nature’s resources to construct their own course, from weaving in and out of trees to jumping over logs. You can also buy training kits at minimal cost to set up in your back garden or local park.
Of course, with all of this additional exercise a well-balanced diet has never been so important for your dog.
Look for hearty foods like Supadog from Burgess, make sure they are nutritionally-packed, provide energy and sustenance, and will set him or her up for a good work out!
In the following video, Jeremy Edwards and his five-year-old Boston Terrier Molly are put through their paces by dog agility expert Gina Graham. Jeremy and Molly demonstrate just how accessible dog agility is, whilst showing us the great benefits it can bring - including good health, bonding and interaction, and best of all fun!

FelixPR writes "Kittens across the UK have developed a subtle new way of causing mischief in the home, by pouncing on keyboards to grab their owners’ attention.
The increase in ‘Qwerty Cat’ behaviour – a phrase coined by animal behaviourist, Peter Neville, after the keys on the top line of a keyboard – has been identified during a nationwide search to find the UK’s most mischievous kitten.
