There will come a time when you might have to go away for the day or longer to do business or for personal reasons but the good news is that you can always take advantage of daycare for dogs and this is essentially a service provider that will provide your dog with everything that it needs until you come to pick it up again. This is just one way to take better care of your dog here in Australia and the following are some others.

  • Provide the right nutrition – For any dog to be happy, it needs proper nutrition and should not be fed excessively. Dogs have an incredible amount of energy and especially so when they are puppies so you need to buy brand-name food that has high-quality ingredients contained within it. You should also be aware that puppies eat different food than adult dogs and they eat more over the course of the day as well.
  • Regular exercise is essential – The wonderful thing about having your own dog is that it gets you out of your armchair as well but you should be aiming for at least 30 minutes of regular exercise for both you and your dog every single day. Bring a ball along and get your dog to go fetch it for you and to bring it back. You can also play with your dog inside to provide them with some kind of mental stimulation and all different breeds require different levels of attention.
  • Carry out proper grooming – All dogs shed their hair and so you need to brush their fair on a regular basis to remove any dead hair as well as dead skin. Investing in a top quality brush will help to create the natural oils that are great for your dog’s fur and it helps to get the air circulating through their coats as well. You should also try to trim your dog’s nails because not only is it good for your pet but it’s good for your wooden floors as well.
