Puppy Treats

12/26/2014

The holiday season is a wonderful time of year! Filled with presents, family, and treats, you may even want to treat your puppy! Here are some quick tips for puppy treats:

Treats are better as positive reinforcement. They should not affect meals, and be more than 10% of your their diet.
Crunchy treats promote dental health by removing plaque buildup.
Rawhide treats are recommended for older puppies. Some can also stain your carpet.
Training treats should be small so they can be quickly eaten.

Even though its snowy and cold outside, your puppy still needs exercise and playtime! Here are four winter exercise tips from Cesar Milan that are great for the winter season.

1. Play a game with your dog.
Hide-and-seek is a wonderful way to get your dog up and moving and mentally engaged. You can hide a treat or her favorite toy, but it’s better to make her come find you. Start by throwing a treat to get her to go away from you, and then hide in another part of the house. This game can really tire your pup out as she rushes around searching, and it’s good for reinforcing the “come” command.

Life in Vienna for Lucky Lady Liberty

12/1/2014

Hello dear Jan,
Lucky Lady Liberty is the best doggie ever, and she is jet-setting around the world (her 20th flight now). Currently in Spain, we sailed from the main land to Ibiza, the party island, and LLL is getting really used to waiting for the potty all day until we set the anchor (no accident on 2 sailing trips so far!). But when she hears that noise of the anchor, she races back to the aft and waits for our son to take her to land in the dingy. She seems proud and everybody looks at her as she stands in the front of the dingy like a figurehead....... And she is!
Other than that she is doing very well in "school" and generally behaves very well - she knows when it is time for a airplane bag and when she may run freely - she is extremely fast when she runs, no way of catching her!!
All in all a SUPER DARLING DOGGIE
Thanks and we will report soon again, LLL will be in Oregon all of October and November with me!
Many hugs
Marina and LLL

A couple from Vienna, Austria purchased a puppy last year. Here is an email from her:
