The Daily Dog Tip

September 3rd, 2010

  Back to school time creates a flurry of activities: medical visits, new clothes, new supplies, and new schedules for kids. And for parents, the many jobs to get ready for the big day are daunting. When it finally comes, parents are relieved and can finally relax. But what about the family dog? Fifi’s best friends have all gone away for hours, or days at a time. And when they come home, they have so many other things to interest them. For attentive dog owners, back to school time is a transition and an opportunity to reconnect personally with the family dog and reestablish old patterns of caring and companionship that the chaotic days of summer fun have interrupted. Go take a walk in the park, just you two!

    Good article. I got blue when those yellow buses started to roll again so not only did our dogs miss the kids but mommy was sad too. Our boys are grown now and I still get those feelings. I think the dogs are over it. ;-D

    No kids to leave for me, but it sure is a great tip. I do not think a pup ever gets over losing his best kid… they are just so accepting of it, kind of no choice.
