Dissuasive guide to dog ownership

People are such strange creatures.

Although they don't want to be a dog, they always want to have a dog of their own.

Dogs always love you so much and need you so much.

In a world filled with selfishness, it is a selfless friend that you can have.

When the whole world seems to have abandoned you, your dog will still be there for you.

When you feel irredeemable, in its eyes, you are still the brightest sun.

So, what about the cost?

Sorry, this is a guide to dissuasion, we have to sneak in some dog "bad".

Of course, this is not to make you hate it.

Just hope that before you decide to breed them, more sensible.

Don't wait for the "freshness" period to expire and then abandon them as if they were garbage.

It poops

I would have liked to use a more elegant word, but I think it's better to be more direct on this issue.

If you see the word "shit" alone, you will feel very disgusting, physiologically difficult to accept, and even have acid reflux and other symptoms.

Then unless you can hire someone to clean up your dog's poop full time, give it up.

Unlike stuffed animals, virtual idols, and hand-me-downs on the shelf, dogs are living creatures and rightfully have various physical needs.

The name "pooper scooper" can not be called in vain, carefully and meticulously cleaning up their poop is one of the important works of an owner.

When you can according to the dog's movement in a circle, the prepared paper or bag, in time and accurately placed on the ground, just catch the dog's poo, and without getting your hands dirty folded into a nice "package" and thrown into the trash.

Congratulations, you are no longer an ordinary pooper scooper, but a "poop master".

And if you always take a chance and do not intend to clean up the dog's poo.

One of these days, either the police or the Shit Man will come to punish you.

It can be costly

Having a dog doesn't just mean you have another dog in your home, you have to prepare a lot of "household items" for it.

Food bowls, water bowls, leashes, collars, staples, treats, toys, nests, baths, crates or crates for going outside, regular vaccinations and deforming, dog license registration, etc., etc.

They need a lot of things, and even if you only buy the essentials, it's not a lot of money.

And you have to buy to meet their needs.

Large dogs in particular eat a lot and poop a lot - well, poop bags may not cost much more, but the cost of dog food can sometimes break owners who didn't expect their dogs to grow so big.

Some people choose to give their dogs leftovers, but in my experience, this can cost the owner more money in subsequent medical treatment.

He needs your care

Depending on the breed of dog, the ease of their care may vary, but they all need your care - every single day.

You must feed your dog every day, and you must go for walks with him.

They must be brushed, their ears cleaned, their nails trimmed, their baths given regularly, and they must be taken for training and playtime.

Although in the beginning, you may think that taking care of a dog is fun.

But think about it, these tasks will require you to persist for ten years.

Even if you are not happy any day, even if you meet with any accident any day.

So before you breed, you must make sure you have enough time, energy, and most importantly - patience and love.

It may affect your life

Everyone has their pattern and pace of life.

Some people like to live a more sophisticated life.

They will clean their homes and neatly put things.

Some people like to live more comfortably and lazily.

Not how to clean things up, whenever the rest like to sleep, or stay at home to play computer.

How you choose to live is personal freedom, but there is little you can do to make your dog fit into your life completely.

They are natural alarm clocks and will always come to wake you up early, whether it is a typhoon day or a heavy rainstorm outside, they always want to go out for a walk.

If you close a door so they can't see you, they will try to slap the door open or whine to express their displeasure.

Sometimes it will also accidentally eat something dangerous, making you have to take it to the hospital and gradually develop a good habit of cleaning the room.

When you end the day's exertions and lie down in bed, they will always try to climb on your bed or lie on your slippers - and sometimes they will snore, disrupting your sleep.

It may even inadvertently steal your important documents, cell phone, keys, or even dentures, making you change your original plans in a rather unpleasant way.

In short, it is like a "roommate" who always worries you and you must learn to tolerate each other and find new ways to get along to adapt to your new life.

He can be annoying

Most of the time, though, dogs are very sweet and well-behaved.

But there are times when they can be less than delightful.

For example, during the rutting season, when they are affected by hormones and smells, they may always have a sudden change of temperament a few days out of the year, being distracted and always looking to go out and find free love.

When you occasionally need to concentrate on work at home, they may be very good, or they may suddenly come to you with a "toy" in their mouths to play with.

If you ignore him, he may keep making noise to express his displeasure and try to distract you, thus affecting the quality of your work.

Dogs that are more alert or excitable, may always bark at others or jump on them.

To prevent them from getting into trouble, you must insist on training them when they are young so that they can adapt to human society and know how to socialize in a "non-obnoxious" way.

If you don't want to spend too much time on your own, then you may have to hire a professional dog trainer - it's not cheap and requires the cooperation of the owner.

If they scare other puppies, children, or other people.

As the owner, you will have to take responsibility, apologize, and sometimes compensate accordingly.

You may need to give up some hobbies for it

Some people may have some unique little hobbies, but you may need to give them up for the sake of your dog's health.

Let's say fragrance and perfume.

Many women like to wear perfume or use some fragrance products, but dogs don't like it.

A dog's sense of smell is very acute, and these strong smells can irritate his sense of smell and affect their health with prolonged use.

Some dogs are also allergic to individual ingredients, which may cause them to sneeze, cough, and in severe cases, cause breathing difficulties, affecting their lives and safety.

Since I had a dog, almost all of the perfume is sealed in the cabinet, occasionally go out and spray a pump or two, but also with a thief as sneaky.

Even when you get home, the smell is almost dissipated, and the dog will also be with "you are not falling in the shit pit? The disgusted look to me ------

Others will prefer to travel.

If there is someone else in the house who can take care of the dog, it may be okay.

But if you live alone and need to temporarily board it in another place, be prepared for it to possibly "go on a hunger strike".

And if you want to take it with you to a faraway place, it is even more difficult. You will have to face much more trouble than at home.

Because of the dog at home, you can raise your hand in the comments section if you have not traveled for years.

The hardest part is ------

Although we have said so much about the cost of owning a dog.

But for most owners, these are too insignificant compared to the laughter, touching, enrichment, and happiness they bring.

It may be that getting along with it night and day is what makes you learn what compromise is.

It may be that it happily pounces on you every night to make you look forward to going home more.

It may be its unrelenting commitment that makes you feel that life is no longer difficult, but also not so terrible.

It will spend its whole life telling you the shape of loyalty and happiness, and the weight of a life.

Yes, it will eventually be a passing visitor in your life.

One day, you will say a final goodbye to it, possibly in an animal hospital or at home.

At the last moment, will teach you what it means to "let go".

You will lose him and your heart will break.

This is often the most difficult stage of dog ownership.

But life will go on.

It may remind you of the first time you let go of your parents' hands when you were a toddler, the first time you made a home away from home

Terrified, lonely, sad.

But the love and courage it once brought you will eventually overcome everything, making you stronger and allowing you to face a better life again.

Someone once wrote an epitaph for his beloved dog.

I loved him for obvious reasons - despite my flaws, he found my beauty.

Owning a dog is not a very difficult task, but of course, it is not easy either.

We hope that every owner, never breed on impulse and then abandon it out of boredom and regret.

If you decide to take it home, promise to give it a lifetime of love.

Then reap the benefits of warm, never-betraying companionship.
