Are you thinking it is too difficult to take on caring for a dog? It doesn't have to be if you remember a few things:
You are the top dog, You are in charge, You are the alpha dog, You are the top dog.
I think you get the picture. Fido must not end up controlling your behavior, so don't give up your status.

You may be wondering what all this means?
Well, there are many areas in which you will need to remain vigilant. A few of these include feeding patterns, toilet habits, and socialization.
Briefly, let's look at these areas.
When you are the one defining Fido's eating habits, you help to keep him healthy and fit. One way is to feed him at the same time everyday no matter what and pick it up if he doesn't want to eat or has left food in the bowl.
This will get him in the habit of knowing that if he doesn't eat at that specific time then he will go hungry.
However, an important thing to remember is to read the labels and insure you're giving her the best food possible.
When it comes to toilet habits, make sure you let him out or take him for a walk at the same times everyday. This will get your canine buddy's body trained for 'going' out of doors only.
One important aspect to you happiness as a dog owner is successful socialization. Teaching Fido to get along with others, people AND pets, will bring joy to all that come into contact with him.
In caring for a dog, consistency is key. Fido wants us to guide him and when we maintain the top dog position in this social order we will enjoy our relationship so much more.
