Making Your Puppy Comfortable When He is Teething

Puppies get baby teeth even earlier than infants so your puppy probably already has baby teeth if he is eight weeks old or older. By the time they are six or seven months old, puppies usually have their adult teeth. Similar to humans, they feel teething discomfort when they are losing baby teeth because adult teeth are pushing against their gums. Often puppies react by chewing almost any item. This can be frustrating to owners, but alleviating your puppy’s discomfort can reduce chewing the wrong items and help your dog feel comfortable.

There are several ways you can help your puppy soothe his gums. A vet can prescribe a cream or ointment that you can apply to the puppy’s gums. The cream can numb and soothe the gums to make your puppy comfortable.

Divert your canine’s attention from his teething discomfort by keeping him busy. Play with your dog, and provide him with a variety of chew and rope toys. Rubber and rope toys with different textures and shapes will keep him interested in playing and alleviate his soreness. Often a cold sensation will be soothing to your puppy. Try freezing a toy so the coolness helps alleviate the pain better.

Essenti offers an extensive collection of dog balls, tug toys, rope toys and dog chew toys that can satisfy your puppy’s desire to chew. Our scented toys naturally attract your puppy to chew on his toys instead of furniture or clothing. Most of our toys are rubber, so they are perfect for freezing. Your dog’s aching teeth will love being soothed by a cold, washable Essenti toy. Purchase a variety of Essenti toys, so your puppy stays interested in chewing and playing with his toys instead of focusing on his pain. Order our Essenti toys so you can help reduce the pain in your puppy’s irritated gums today.

Preparing Your Dog for Visitors

You have probably been in the situation where you prepare your house for company, anticipate a relaxing evening with friends and then are frustrated when your dog is noisily barking while you are trying to mingle with guests. Although your dog’s behavior may be undesirable, you can make him more relaxed around company by using pet products.

Be careful to avoid neglecting your dog before your gathering. By the time your visitors arrive, he may feel threatened by unknown people in his home or your dog may want attention. Plan some quality time with your dog before the company arrives so he is content or tired by the time visitors appear at your door.

Use a retractable or standard leash to take your dog for a walk before company arrives. Grab some dog toys and let him romp in the park or play fetch in your back yard. The exercise and fresh air may make him ready to relax later.

When you return, fill your dog’s bowl with fresh water and food. Make sure you use a dog bowl that does not slip or slide. Even if he is not hungry or thirsty, his dog bowl will have a beverage and food available when he wants it. If you put him in a separate room after guests arrive, leave some pet toys with him. If he can entertain himself and his needs are met, he is less likely to disturb your guests.

Essenti has retractable leashes, pet bowls, and scented floating rubber dog toys that will help prepare your dog for guests. Our rings, balls, discs and other toys can help make your pet tired before your guests arrive. Our non-skid pet bowls are washable and convenient.

Training Temporary Pets to Help the Disabled

The Otisville Correctional Center in New York has a new program that teaches inmates responsibility while helping them perform a service for others. Qualifying inmates can help train puppies for people with disabilities. The puppies live with the inmates for approximately 20 months. During that time, inmates are responsible for feeding, grooming, and teaching the dogs the necessary commands for them to help the disabled.

Once the dogs are sufficiently trained, they are picked up by a non-profit agency that unites the dogs with a disabled person. The dog and the special needs individual work together until the dog can satisfy their needs.
When raising guide dogs, puppy raisers will need leashes, pet bowls, and toys to care for the dogs and train them.

The trainers use tugs, balls, and other toys to teach commands and how to socialize. Leashes are instrumental when training and caring for the dogs because the dogs must be constantly exposed to people. Furthermore, owners rely on their guide dogs because they are unable to see, so the dogs must be very well-trained.

Although using inmates to train dogs is a new program, law-abiding civilians can also enjoy the experience of training dogs for the disabled. Guiding Eyes for Blind and the Eye Dog Foundation are two non-profit organizations that provide puppies and support for people who are willing to raise guide dogs.

Most non-profit organizations that supply and oversee the training of guide dogs require participants to live a reasonable distance from the organization, but there are organizations in many geographic locations.

Training a guide dog can be a wonderful way to contribute to the community. Nevertheless, it is also important to remember that caring for a guide dog is a temporary job and returning the dog to the organization can be traumatic when you have developed a strong bond.

Essenti Enterprises, LLC offers products, has a full line of sturdy pet bowls, retractable leashes, and floating rubber dog toys that are well-suited for training guide dogs. Our online selection is readily accessible and perfect for your training needs.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Breeder

There are many kinds of dogs. Once you decide to purchase one, you need to choose a breed that meets your specifications and lifestyle. You should consider allergies, living space, whether the dog sheds, whether the breed has the right temperament around children and whether you want a pure or mixed breed.

If you want a purebred puppy and cannot find one at a shelter, you may decide to purchase your dog from a breeder. It is important to purchase your dog from a knowledgeable and reputable breeder. How can you decide on the right breeder?

You can find breeders by obtaining referrals. If you cannot get referrals, contact a vet, kennel club or the Humane Society for recommendations.

Once you identify a breeder, make an appointment to visit him. Even if the breeder does not have puppies during your initial visit, you still should inspect the premises, talk to the breeder, and observe other dogs that may be on the premises.

Notice whether the dogs on the premises appear healthy and clean. Watch the breeder to see how he interacts with his dogs. Ask where the dogs spend their time, and have a list of questions about the breed. The breeder should be able to answer your questions and show legitimate interest in ensuring that you will be a good pet owner. He may ask questions about your home life. Even if the breeder seems knowledgeable and interacts well with his dogs, ask for references.

After checking the references, visit the available puppies. Review the health records of the puppy, parents and grandparents to ensure that they are free of hereditary problems that may be common to the breed. The breeder should be able to provide information about caring for the puppy and want you to return the dog if you cannot care for him.

When a puppy is purchased, he will need his own dog bowl, floating rubber toys and leashes. Essenti Enterprises, LLC manufactures sturdy plastic bowls that are available in assorted styles and colors for any size puppy or dog. They also offer floating scented rubber dog toys that are perfect for energetic puppies that need to chew and play. Our full line of dog accessories can help your dog transition to his new home. Our products make it easier to care for dogs and puppies.
