OBEDIENCE Training usually refers to the training of a dog and the term is most commonly used in that context. The training makes an effort to teach the dog to reliably respond to basic verbal commands such as “sit,” “down,” “come,” and “stay.” Good. In case your dog gets smarter than that, and now knows how to google, click a Netflix series, chat with the Amazon delivery person, act as a reliable sous chef, among others–that’s because the cat trained them. 🐕👍🐕
GOOGLE search says dog breeds that are often independent include the sighthounds, some of the spitz breeds, most of the terriers, some of the working dogs, and some others. As per my experience with babedawgs, all of them are independent-minded, especially those who coexist with cats (who are naturally geniuses) under one roof. Thing is, we stereotype dogs like how we stereotype people. Ha! We fail to recognize their true value as Republicans or Democrats. LOL! 🐕🐩🐕🦺
ACCORDING to on heterosexual couples, women were more likely to date a man with a dog because he appeared more responsible, empathetic, and caring. Men, get that? Now go adapt a dog at Brother Wolf and hang at Westville Pub’s patio. 👨🦰🐕👩🦰
NO secret that pets can contribute to your happiness. Studies show that dogs reduce stress, anxiety and depression; ease loneliness; encourage exercise and improve your overall health. For example, people with dogs tend to have lower blood pressure and are less likely to develop heart disease. However, another study revealed that dogs tend to leave the house, with cats, when owners seem unable to shake the political hate. You know what I mean? They can’t cure those. 🐕🥰🐈
MOST dogs were born to be in the spotlight and really love being photographed. Other pups may be less willing to hold still and look at the camera though. Arrow used to love photos when she was young. Not that enthusiastic anymore. When koolcats Ching and Fizz arrived here, and Ching took most attention, Arrow simply gave way to the new rock star, the boss. Fizz doesn’t really care about photos and stuff. She prefers to be alone, mostly. 🐕👑🐕
TYPICAL American alcoholic beers average 4 percent to 5 percent alcohol (ethanol) by volume, but some can be much higher. Beer contains minerals such as magnesium, potassium, selenium, and B vitamins. Get that? B vitamins. B vitamins. 🍺🍻🍺
CANINE drama queens are known as “reactive” dogs. As with human drama queens (and kings), reactive dogs respond in an overly emotional manner to life events―even rather mundane ones. Arrow can be a drama queen, too. When she sees our friend Lucy walking with Brando (her dog) up the hill, Arrow would go “OMG! My friends!!!” When there’s too much noise outside, “OMG! WTF!” When we go for a ride, “OMG! OMG!” Just being Arrow. 🐕😭🐕
EXPERTS say cats secretly hate having their picture taken constantly. You might like to take photos of your cat, but what you might not realize is that your cat might now want your phone in their face 24/7. Not in my years of experience with cats though. (The late) Elle Cyd The Koolcat loved photo-shoots. These days, Fizz may not so high and hot with my cell cam on her face (she is generally aloof) but Ching is always ready for a nice shoot. Whenever, wherever. 🐱📸🐱
STAY-AT-HOME dad is a father who is the main caregiver of the children and is generally the homemaker of the household. I am a stay-at-home dad, pretty much. But to a dog and two cats. Uh huh. 🧓👶🧔♂️
The USDA peels or scrubs and washes produce samples before testing, whereas the FDA only removes dirt before testing its samples. Even after these steps, the tests still find traces 251 different pesticides. So don’t give me the damn wellness food lecture. Eat! 🥦⛽️🥬
