Is Your Dog Getting What They Need?

If you had a Maslow's hierarchy of needs for dogs, that bottom level is the same as for people. So make sure you're getting those basic needs met. Eris has been placing himself whenever clean, cook, and it's the best thing ever. Life is easy then. 15 month old Aussie mix gets too excited, makes bad choices, and can't settle with freedom in the house. Will this structure always be necessary? Unlikely. My dog walks on a 50 foot long line when it's a place where that would be safe and appropriate. The hard part is getting from the car to the place.
