Smartinfosys
Do you own a pet? Then you’ll relate to everything we’re going to talk about.
There are so many things about dogs that only a pup parent can relate & understand, some of them are “oh-so-adorable” & some of them are disgusting but those won’t matter to you at all.
Read out to learn about 5 things – every pet owner can relate to.
1. You’ll address them with a new nickname everyday
As a pet owner you put a lot of effort & time to choose your pet name. For example, we prepared an excel sheet before choosing a name for our pets & models, Bella & Reve. But their nicknames are however a total breakdown of the English language. Those are often made in such a way that it would sound weird but lovable like mossey moo moo.
Here are Sassy Dog Fashions’ favorite names for Dogs:
- Sasha
- Toby
- Bo
- Lucy
- Princess
- Alex
- Daisy
- Sparky
- Dusty
- Sam
2. Their hair is everywhere but you’re least concerned
After years of being a pet parent, you’re now aware that every corner, every cloth in the closets of your house is covered with dog hair…no, don’t even deny that, we know. You’ll find yourself cleaning those hair follicles often.
Our advice on cleaning dog hair:
- Buy light color clothes
- Have a lint roller in your house
- Use a damp sponge or rubber gloves to clean furniture
- Use a window squeegee for carpet cleaning
- Use a roll of tape for loose pet hair
3. You skip your plans because they fall asleep
Tell us how many times did you cancel your parties, dates & what not just because your pet fell asleep in your arms and he is so adorable to be disturbed. Also, it can be the perfect excuse if you don’t want to attend the party & it will be considered as a valid one so no worries.
4. You celebrate every milestone
You’ll celebrate even the smallest milestone which is related to them, whether it is bringing him home for the first time or the first time you took them out for dinner.
We have made a list of 8 milestones to celebrate with your pet.
- The first time you bring them home
- Completion of core vaccinations
- The first time he recognized his name
- When he finished his training
- When your dog started socializing
- Your first trip with your Pet
- First successful leash walk
- Celebrating birthday (So obvious)
5. You’ll not need an alarm clock
You’ll no longer need an alarm clock to wake up. Your dog will wake you up every morning at the same time. Tell us would you like to wake up to the annoying alarm tone or your dog’s woof woof? Seeing your pet’s face first thing in the morning would be a great way to start your day, isn’t it?

Like regular exercise is important for you, similarly exercising regularly is important for your dog too. It is important that you take care of your dog’s health and fitness also. More often than not, it is seen the more active your pet is, the healthier he is going to be throughout. Well, for that you don’t have to take your dog on a 5-mile run every day, just some simple steps you can follow so that you can improve your pet’s physical fitness as well as your own. Here are a few best fun activities to do to improve physical fitness of your pet.
Jogging
Jogging has always been considered a best exercise, if it has not been your thing in the past, then you have the reason to ease into it. More often than not, dogs love to run, all you need to do is to take time to build up endurance by starting with a couple of short jogs with your pet several times a week. And, gradually you can increase the length of the jog. Make sure you are warming up before you head out to jog, also keep an eye on your dog throughout to make sure he isn’t getting too tired. Like this you and your pet will have a routine to follow and along with that a nice way to spend quality time together.
Swimming
Swimming is another activity which can help you improve your dog’s health. Any dog would be there who loves to splash in water, and water games are the most favorite games for dogs. The only thing which you need to see is the weather condition, of course swimming is not for winters. Only when the temperatures heat up, you can head to the beach or pool to make a splash. Swimming is an excellent low-impact exercise that can keep your dog not only moving, but also having fun. If you find your dog resisting getting into the water, throw a ball or a toy for him to retrieve and then see him have fun in the water.
Brisk Walking
Not always is leisure walking is enough, sometimes you and your dog need to kick up your fitness level by picking up the pace of your walk. For that you can start brisk walking with your dog, you can aim for between 15 and 20 minutes per mile. This is a nice speed to get going, also, you will feel like you are putting in a good effort, however, your dog may begin to pant. Panting is fine, as long as your dog doesn’t start to exhibit labored breathing, then you should stop for a while to rest.
Agility Training
Agility training is fun for dogs, besides being a great form of exercise. Agility training keeps your dog active while weaving through poles and running over planks help dogs develop their muscles. If you don’t have access to an agility course, don’t worry, you can use low walls and fences, fence posts and other existing objects for such training of your pets.
Disc Dogging
Last but not the least, disc dogging is another great dog sport to get into. It’s very easy–simply start throwing around a dog-friendly disc in the backyard or at the park that’s all. Initially throw the disc at short distances, gradually you can throw up to longer distances as well. Your pet will love to chase the disc and will gladly bring it back for another round. Disc dogging not only will get your blood pumping, but also will strengthen the bond between you two.
To conclude…..
It is highly recommended to get your dog involved into some activity so that he is fit, fine and healthy throughout. After all health is wealth!!
