I rant awhile ago that running with your dog is IN nowadays but I would like to expound on that; I want to suggest some helpful tips when running with your dog;
1. Run with your dogs and not with puppies, wait for them to mature for their bones also to mature. Small breeds can go running 6 months up while large breeds need a year to mature.
2. Do not run with OLD dogs, old dogs are any large dog from 7 years old above and 10 years old for small breed.
3. Give him dog pads to avoid injury and to detect if they over ran or not, start slow and if bleeding, tenderness and raw spot occur let him take a leave off from running.

Well yeah some would say it is cute but the truth is fat dogs life span are cut into half because they would suffer to various heart diseases and illnesses. There is no best diet pills for dogs but to exercise them through walking and letting them play, run and roll. Dogs are active and very vibrant in nature so if they start getting lazy then you should be worry about it then make them do stuff that won’t make them just eat, sleep and lay down all the time and everyday, be a responsible dog owner.

Dog owners sometimes take this as cute as their dog or as serious as taking their time to correct their dog. Territorial markings is like a dog peeing on one place then another dog will pee on it too until the first dog smelled that hey this is not my pee and he’ll pee on it again. Well sometimes territorial marking happened not only in between dogs but also with human and dogs. For example you have a visitor at home, if not trained, your dog will pee on your couch or furniture just to say to your visitor hey this is not yours or sometimes they will pee on the person already, funny but it does happen.
