doggie day care
Since I got Jago my concern was: will he be bored at home?
I live in a house with a garden, medium size garden.
I work not far from my house, 10 minutes by car.
I adopted Jago when he was a tiny 10 weeks old puppy.
I know that many people are against adopting a puppy if you work full time, but the owner couldn't find a home for the 8 puppies and he was ready to bring them to the pound.
So I took some days off and on a Friday I brought...

Training: recall!
***Please note that I am NOT a dog trainer, so I am just sharing my experience with my own dogs..
I may be doing wrong things and I am open to suggestions :) ***
Well, we all know that one of the most important things is to be able to control our dogs.
And especially... to make them come back when called!

I am sure there will be other accesses...

Dog neutering, Jago experience
I have read so many discussions about if it's right or not to neuter a dog.
I spoke with many people and friends.
Obviously the first reaction is: NO!
It's against the nature, poor dog,we cannot choose for them and so on.
Then I start thinking how many abandoned animals live out there.
How many are put to sleep, just because nobody want them.
We didn't neuter our first dog.
I don't know exactly why, we were new to dogs and maybe we didn't...
