How do you usually walk your dog?

Additional interesting content – 02: How do you usually walk your dog?

Usually my wife and I take her out together.

One person leads her, and the other person explores the way.

Because the environment is more chaotic during the day, we usually take her out to play in the evening.

Occasionally, we go out during the day, but the frequency is lower.

Douding’s brown hair has a circle of white hair on the edge of her ears. I like totalk abouther essential equipment first

[1] Leash (relatively short, easy to control)

[2] Luminous collar. (This way others can see her from 50 meters away. Avoid scaring each other.)

[3] If you go out during the day, the collar will be replaced with a bow tie/triangle scarf/necklace or something to show off.

[4] Recently, I have been staying in the countryside with my parents, so she has to wear shoes when she goes out. Otherwise, it is difficult to take care of her, and ants will crawl up her feet to her body.

The toy room when she was a child, it is too big to fit in. In the end, I could only put my head in, and my butt was exposed outside, She showed a very unwilling attitude.

Her non-essential equipment

[1] Very high probability, there will be a small red dot on her forehead. It is used for conceit.

[2] It is hot now, and her brown hair will absorb heat seriously. So she will wear a super thin T-shirt.

It was Douding’s earliest toy friend. Unfortunately, it was torn during the teething period and was covered with blood. I had no choice but to throw it away.

Our essential equipment

[1] A small flashlight, used to explore the road. It is also for the convenience of pedestrians in the distance to find us in advance.

[2] If we travel far, we will carry a small water bottle for dogs.

[3] Tissue + plastic bag. I prepared it before to prevent her from accidentally going out. Now I almost don’t carry it.

Because she will relieve herself before going out every time.

At about three months old, her belly has not grown hair yet, so it is particularly easy to catch a cold. And at that time, she is stupid and silly.

Let’s talk about the rules of walking the dog (there is no order of priority, just say whatever comes to mind)

[1] Walk close to the side. If you meet people or cars, you will avoid them in advance. After all, many people don’t like dogs. We can’t cause trouble to others.

[2] People who like dogs often come over to say hello to her, mostly children. At this time, we will immediately hold Douding’s armpits with both hands to help her stand up. Restrain her movements. We will let her go only when we are sure she is fine.

[3] When taking the elevator, Douding will take the initiative to stand up for us to support her and stand in the corner so that people who come in will not be scared.

[4] She must master several commands, such as slow down/run/stop/turn left/turn right/go home. This is very convenient to control and will save you a lot of trouble.

[5] If I talk about it in detail, it will be a lot more verbose, but the main thing is to psychologically suggest to yourself: “Everyone in the world is afraid of dogs except me.” In this way, you will know how to do everything well.

She fell asleep while looking in the mirror, and I didn’t want to wake her up, so I covered her with a blanket.

Finally, let’s add a fun daily routine.

[1] Step 1: Observe her words and expressions. She will use various methods such as taking keys/shaving/changing clothes/washing hair/putting on makeup/answering the phone, Predict whether you are going out.

[2] Step 2: Double confirmation. She will look at me for eye contact. At this time, I will tell her: Let’s go out and play. After getting the answer she wants, she will immediately go to my wife for a second confirmation, because she knows “who has the final right of interpretation”. After both parents give a definite answer, she will proceed to the next step to avoid futile efforts.

[3] Step 3: Actively go to the toilet to urinate and defecate. If she feels like it, she will urinate first, then turn around and defecate, and then find me to wipe her butt. If she doesn’t feel like it, she will urinate a little. Let you know that she has tried hard.

[4] Step 4: Actively go to her own belongings area to get the leash and clothes, and then throw them at your feet. Let you put them on her. I let her get the collar before, but I found that it was easy to be bitten, so now I give up. (PS: If you don’t let her put it on, she will take the clothes and leash to find another person. Very persistent. Very persistent. Very persistent.)

[5] Step 5: At this time, she will start to urge us. She jumps and spins until she goes out. With

such an active attitude, everyone would think that she must like to go out and play, but in fact, it is not the case. She is the kind of person who doesn’t care if you don’t take me out. If you take me out, I can play for 1 minute or half an hour. I often encounter that when I just go downstairs, I suddenly find that the weather is bad, so I throw away the garbage and turn around to go home. She will still go home happily, and when she gets home, she will be as happy as if she had played outside for 1 hour. I don’t understand her.

When I was sick, I liked to collect slippers and sleep with them in my arms. This would make me feel more secure.

Additional supplement:

Many people say that Border Collies have a lot of exercise and have to ride motorcycles for a walk. In contrast, my dog ​​is extremely lazy. It may be because we are inseparable 24 hours a day. She doesn’t care much about the outside world.

But she likes games that can be played with family members. For example, throwing sandbags, she grabs in the middle. The whole family takes balloons together.

And she is very masochistic. She likes me to hit her face with balloons, and the more I hit her, the happier she is. She likes me to vacuum her hair, and then she will pretend to run around excitedly. She likes me to blow her hair with a hair dryer, and then she will jump around excitedly. Once I stop blowing her hair, she will come over to scratch you… She

is very masochistic, so I must find time to write an article about how she usually does masochism.

Look at her eyes, please feel it carefully .

Finally, I encourage everyone to be civilized dog owners,

leash their dogs when going out, avoid pedestrians, control barking, and clean up feces.

Only if we do well, can dogs be safer and freer in human society.
