Show Your Dog You Love Him!

4 Ways In Which You Can Show Your Dog How Much You Love Him

by Paul Kleinmeulman

Do you have at least one framed photo of your dog somewhere in your house… or maybe in your

wallet? Is your dog pretty darn close to being the very center of your universe? Do you love spoiling him,

respond to his every whimper and cry, and spend hundreds of dollars on gourmet treats? To say that

dogs are man’s best friend is anything but a cliché. You might be the most miserable person in the world

without a friend to your name… but your dog will treat you like royalty every time you walk through the

door. So how do you repay that unconditional love and devotion? There are hundreds of different ways!

1. Spoil him rotten.

A lot of people spend a lot of money at chic pet boutiques, dressing their dogs in hundred-dollar

sweaters and paying for meticulous pawdicures. They buy diamond studded collars and give their dogs

rooms all to themselves. You probably don’t have the budget for things like that, right? You can still spoil

your dog with simple, everyday things that cost you the absolute minimum. Next time your pooch needs

a bath, focus on giving him a massage while you’re working the shampoo into his coat. Take him out for

a drive once each week and dress according to the weather so you can open a window and let his head

hang out, his ears flapping in the breeze. Or you can…

2. Stuff him silly.

Your dog lives by food! It drives every thought he has, every impulse in his body. But you’re more

rational, you know that food needs to be both delicious and nutritious to make sure he has as long and

happy a life as possible. Why not try making some homemade treats and dog food that are absolutely

packed with all of the vitamins and nutrients he needs? Bake him a delicious, healthy cake for his next

birthday, then share a few cookies with him!

3. Prepare for the worst.

If you know exactly what to do in a tough situation or an emergency, you infinitely increase the chances

that your dog will be around for a long time to come. Do you know what to do when he’s choking? You

should lay your dog on his side and place one hand on his back and the other on his stomach just behind

his rib cage. Using the stomach hand, push in and toward the throat twice, but without too much force.

If you can see a foreign object, sweep your fingers through his mouth to remove it. If he’s still choking,

place your mouth over his nose and exhale until his chest rises. Repeat once, and then thrust two more

times. Continue until he coughs out the obstruction. Now consider what would happen if he started to

choke and you had no clue what to do, then ended up spending 10 minutes calling vets and driving him

there. Making sure you’re prepared to care for his health and wellbeing is a great way to show him how

much you love him.

4. Speak his language.

Unless you believe in pet psychics, there’s really no way for you to read your pooch’s mind and figure

out exactly what she’s thinking. The good news is that, like many dog owners, the problems you’re

having can probably be traced to one simple thing: you’re trying to communicate with your dog from a

human standpoint, and your dog isn’t a human. Rather than saying “no,” a word that doesn’t really

mean anything to a dog, try growling in a deep, throaty voice the next time you’re unhappy with

something he’s done. He’ll get the message immediately and you won’t have to go through a big, drawn-

out battle of wills. He’ll appreciate you meeting him halfway!
