All we ever want to do is give our pets the best life and the utmost love. But what we don’t realize is that some of the well-intended things we do to our canine companions can actually do more harm than good to them.

Forcing Friendships

You can’t force a person or another dog onto your pup. When introducing a new person or pet, let your dog go to that new friend on their own, scope them out, and decide for themselves.

Dressing Them Up

Regardless of popular belief, dogs’ fur is built to naturally insulate and cool them. Most dog clothing is unnecessary when it comes to protection and seasonal temperature shifts, so if you have to dress your dog up, be gradual with them so that you ensure they’re not uncomfortable.
