Dog In the

House

No matter how pampered a pet is, the house should still be – first and foremost – comfy for the humans who live there

By Patricia Rivera | CTW Features

S

ome people may not like the comparison, but dog-book author Ruth Strother insists that living with a pet is like living with children.

To maintain harmony – and to make the home more comfortable for people and their furry friends – it’s important to establish a routine and boundaries.

Cesar Millan, better known as the Dog Whisperer, says that dog owners must claim their space consistently to set appropriate boundaries in the home.

“Just like you wouldn’t let your kids play freely in a room with expensive furniture, you can’t let your pets play in there either,” says Strother, author of “The Dog Friendly Home: DIY Projects for Dog Lovers” (Creative Publishing International, 2011).

{ continued from page 26 } Those who don’t create boundaries and designated spaces for pets run the risk of knocking over water bowls or entertaining guests with an eyesore of a kitty jungle gym – or worse, a litter box – in plain sight. Dog behavior specialist Cesar Millan, who hosts “The Dog Whisperer” television show on National Geographic Wild, believes owners must claim their space – consistently.

“If you decide your dog is only allowed on the couch when you invite him, then you have to stick to that rule when you’re home,” says Millan, who is also author of three New York Times best sellers. “It’s all about discipline and consistency.”

Strother says living with a pet means dealing with occasional damage. But there are

preventive measures for some common problems. Consider installing clear vinyl door protectors to prevent doors from being scratched.

Nail caps applied to dog’s nails help protect door and floors. Grooming is huge, experts insist. Nails should be kept short no matter what.

Strother says regular exercise and regular stimulation also keeps pets more at peace. “You need to dedicate time to them and think about their needs,” she says.

Pet Projects When a pet has its own special space in a house, it’s easier to keep things organized and routine. Not only does it make things easier for the four-legged ones to understand, but it keeps pet-owners from ripping their hair out in frustration.

In “The Dog-Friendly Home,” author Ruth Strother offers some ideas to make a pet area more comfortable for all the occupants in a house.

Pet toy chest: Just as with children’s toys, she explains, pet toys can overtake a home. Instead of piling them in a corner, find or build a toy chest. “Take out two or three toys at a time – they don’t need more! Rotate them and when they’re done playing, put them in the chest.”

Attractive beds: A stylish house shouldn’t have a sloppy pet bed thrown on the floor.

Strother suggests some modern options: a platform bed made from Baltic birch plywood sized to match the dimensions of the pet bed cushion, or a nightstand-bed combo for smaller pets that incorporates a small mattress into a piece of household furniture.

VERY BUSY COMMERCIAL HOT SPOT of downtown Conway Village. Locals stay true to the small businessman. Come for the coffee, the chat or the fantastic deals. Every day is a new day, a new adventure, if you will. Gas, newspapers and so much more... coldest beer in town, so I am told!!! Great wine selection and all your everyday needs... always readily available at affordable prices. Come for the chili, come for the donuts direct from Levitt’s Bakery or just come to feel a part of the village. Welcome to Conway Village! You could be the next proprietor!! (4053327) $349,000
