Return the Favor

Dogs fulfill our needs in a way others can’t. For many of us, we like to say that “my dog saved me.” They fill a hole we didn’t know we had. We adore them. We love them. We hug and pet them because it calms our soul.

This is all great and normal and I truly believe this is why dogs exist, to keep humans balanced, but it is important that we return the favor.

Just as your dog fulfills you, you must fulfill his needs too. You must give your dog what he needs to stay balanced. Food, water and hugs are not enough. Structure, direction, clarity, physical and mental stimulation are a must for your dog. Every. Single. Day.

So love on your dog all you want, hug and kiss them, snuggle with them, but don’t forget to return the favor.
