Rachann has a dog, LJ, that gets so excited this time of year when the lightning bugs start to appear. LJ likes to catch them and crunch them ... but apparently, they don't taste very good!
If you have pets, dogs, cats, or horses, you need to clean up after them--scooping the litter box, scooping the yard, and scooping the stable and barnyard. Rachann is fascinated with all sorts of manure, even bat and bird guano!
Do dogs rest? Of course they do! They play hard and need to release stress. Did you know that a group of dogs in the kennel will sleep, but there is one that will stay awake to watch over the rest? When we sleep, humans, dogs, and all other animals, our brains are relaxing and processing information.
Rachann talks about the time her dog, LJ, wanted a piece of cereal that she was eating. Unfortunately, LJ really didn't like the Frosted Mini Wheat and spit it out. Are there some things that your pet absolutely won't eat?
How important is body language to people and animals? Most animals are very attuned to body language, between their own species and others, including humans.
What kind of conversations do your dogs have with you? Do they move their eyebrows up and down, or tilt their head? Rachann talks about dogs use body language to communicate with us.
Do you talk to your pets? And do you also believe that they are understanding and responding? Rachann does!
Have you ever sat on the floor to see the world from your dog's perspective? You'd be surprised!
A lot of animals like to leap around. Is there a connection to Leap Year?
Rachann discusses teeth, both human and dog, and the importance of keeping them clean.
Rachann is busy trying to find a Valentine's Day activity for the dogs at the kennel. Hmmm, I wonder what she comes up with!
At Mariah-Belle Manor Kennel, the dogs are trained to sit and wait for kibble (food) and cookies (treats). Sometimes, they hear staff talking about kibble or cookies (but it's not feeding time!) and staff is puzzled as to why all the dogs are sitting!
Dogs, like people, horses, and other mammals, can get carsick. If you have a vomiting dog, Rachann recommends that you carry a "Puppy Bag" in the car that contains all you need to clean up the dog and the car.
Does your dog urinate on the Christmas tree, or anything else plant-based that you bring into your home during the holidays? Does your cat knock all of the berries off of the wreath and the garland? Holidays can be a time of mixed scent messages for pets.
Can you believe that there are some dogs that don't particularly like to play with balls? Most dogs love balls, but there are some that don't get the attraction. Rachann talks about dogs and balls and how to make ball play more interesting.
Do dogs have a better sense of smell better than we do? Absolutely!
Would rolling naked on the beach make you happy? It sure did this pup!
Dogs noses are one of their most powerful senses, the sense of smell. Scents elicit a response in our pets, just as smelling things like peanut butter cookies baking does in us.
Just as we as people have boundaries, so do our pets. Is it ever okay for a dog to scoot across the carpet? No, no more than it would be okay for us to do it!
