Dog Relaxing
Dog Relaxing
​There they go. Running and barking and growling and biting. Wagging and bragging and jumping and licking. Playing and swaying and pooping and sleeping. Yep, that sums up a dog alright. Dogs will be dogs as one author put it. They love being dogs and that is for sure. I believe that dogs sometimes wonder how come everything else are not dogs since they are so cool.  But one thing for sure is that dogs love comfort and relaxation. Yes, dogs loved to be pampered and petted by their devoted masters. After years of pampering and petting my own dogs, I realise that that petting a certain area of your dog allows them to be much more relaxed and some have even fallen asleep while getting this secret petting area petted. 
That secret Petting Area.
Here is the big secret in petting your dog to make him/her calm, relax and maybe even fall asleep. Placer your hand on the head of the dog and begin to rub the dogs head from to back. Do this slowly and stroke for about 20 times. Use your thumb and your middle finger and create a crane hold behind the ears of your dog and begin to move in an up and down gentle motion. Your dog will soon begin to feel the effect of this relaxation.  The next secret petting move is to begin to rub under your dog’s neck and gently rub under the dogs chin. Repeat all the petting procedures given in this paragraph and watch your canine pal be relaxed in tranquility.
​
The Lay down Underbelly Rub
This petting technique has been practiced by sacred Buddhist monks for decades. Now I will tell you the oblivious dog owner about this secret dog petting technique. When your dog is laying down, just go over to the animal and begin to rub the animal’s side. Gentle stroking from top to bottom, once the dog gets relaxed enough, it will most likely role over on its back and open its legs. Just rub the underbelly of the animal and watch all the enlightenment happen.
​Once you have mastered these techniques, you can make your anxious dog relax easily. As a matter of fact, you can make any dog relax easily. Just remember not to try this when dogs are having a dog fight as you may need a good water hose to calm them down. Cheers and happy petting.

Once Upon A Time I Was A Dog - Dog Poem

Dog Poem
Dog Poem - I was Once A Dog
Once upon a time before I became human i was a dog.
My memory brings me back into my first owner’s yard
I can see through my doggy eyes pretty clear
All the fun I had over there
My owner was a middle aged white guy who lived alone
And on weekends he was sure to hand me a ham bone
He would take me for long walks on the beach
And allow me to curdle at his feet.

I remember myself as a pooch and it was sparkling
How I used to find fun bark at the other dogs barking
I chased squirrels and once a cat up a tree
And on a fire hydrant I enjoyed a pee
I once caught a few tick which gave me the hitch
All because I meddled with a bitch
But my master took care of that right away
Now I am hitch free all the way.

One late night while we were inside something spooky occurred
My master was reading a book and I was looking at the bird
I heard a bang on the back door and jumped up and looked at him
Then he jumped up to see what the heck was banging
He turned on the lights and saw a burglar out back
I became furious and wanted to attack
When the thief heard my barks from inside he panicked and fled
As bites from my teeth would have made him bled

​I remember clearly when master brought me to the vet
And told her that I was his loving pet
The vet gave me an injection and a few doggy treats
And in no time i was back on my feet
I remember being a dog at that time was great
But now I am a boring human for goodness sake.

Tick Infestation Eradication
Getting Rid of Tick Infestation
Welcome dog owner. If you reached this page you or someone you know are having tick problems. Well, it is said that a dog is a man's best friend, but guess what? A dog is a tick best meal. That's right, tick love dogs and they feed on their blood, get fat and lay eggs on the dog so their tiny parasitic babies can feed again. If you have a tick infestation, you cannot simply resort to tweezers and tissue to rid your dog and it's surrounding of the parasite. You have to get down and get dirty on this one. If you have a tick infestation, here are some common sense ways of ridding your yard from those tiny bloodsuckers.
Treating Tick Infestation In Dogs
Treating Dog For Tick
1. Treat Your Dog For Ticks and Fleas
Ok, now that it is established that your dog is a walking tick mountain, you must put immediate measures in place to get rid of all the parasites on your dog. The ticks will latch on to and suck blood from just about anywhere possible on your dog. Tick will be in your dogs ear, behind the ear, under the dog collar, back, between the paws etc. So knowing all the little villages created on your dog by these tiny vampires, your next step is to visit a vet so he or she can recommend a solution to eradicate these pest off your pooch.

​Some vets will recommend some chewable tick killing pills which can be placed in the dogs food. There are plenty of solutions available to kill tick off your dog and let them keep off for a specific period of time. There are injections available for this as well as medicated dog collars. But before you run and log on to your online purchasing store, always do a little bit of research about any side effects of chemicals used.  After all, you want to heal your dog not make it the next sacrifice. 

Remember that these treatments do not last forever and you will have to make another purchase to keep your dog tick free.
2. Spray Your Yard To kill Tick and Flea
Ticks don't just beam on your dog from outer earth space. They have to crawl millions of miles looking for the last dog Jedi. Ok, maybe they don't need a Jedi, but they will sink their little fangs into the nearest dog they see. Ask your vet for a spray which will kill ticks and their eggs. Follow the direction given by the vet or on the label of the chemical. Follow these simple yet critical steps to have a successful tick eradication from your yard.

Find a Area to tie your dogs during spray.
  • Spray that area first and leave it to settle for a few hours. get your dog and chain it to the area where you sprayed a couple hours before.

Spray the area where your dog frequents, rest and sleeps.
  • Ensure that you spray the dog house, any shaded area that the dog always rest or sleeps. If the animal is an indoor dog, isolate the dog and then begin your tick hunting and cleaning. Always where gloves and face mask when using any type of chemical. 
3. Don't allow Stray Dogs and Other Animals Around.
So after treating your dogs for ticks and fleas and eradicating your yard and home from the parasites, you must try your very best not to have another re-infestation. Dogs are nice and sometimes we tend to pet stray dogs also, but a lot of stray dogs are carriers of the parasites and once they find a way to mingle with your dog, they may transfer ticks to your pet. It could be a simple nose rub at the gate or a stray dog simply laying at your gate or find some way to enter your yard. Don't allow any kind of stray animal to mingle with your dog if you want it to remain tick free.

4. Keep your Dog Nice and Clean
Although tick care not if your dog is the best smelling pooch on the block, it is always good to ensure that your dog is clean and free from any other kind of diseases. Use a dog shampoo that is natural and helps to fight tick and fleas to bath your dog. Some dog shampoos are basically colognes with suds and does zero effect on reducing or killing ticks on your dog. Natural dog shampoos that help kill tick while not irritating your dogs skin should be considered.
