BENEFITS OF YOUR DOG

BEING WITH OTHER DOGS

Socialisation

Interacting with other dogs can help improve your dog's social skills and behaviour around other animals. Well-socialised dogs are generally more comfortable and confident in various environments.

​

Play and Exercise

Playtime with other dogs provides physical exercise and mental stimulation. Engaging in playful interactions can help burn off excess energy and prevent boredom.

​

Emotional Well-Being

Dogs are social animals by nature. Positive interactions with other dogs can provide companionship and reduce feelings of loneliness or anxiety, especially when you're not around.

​

Learning Opportunities

Dogs can learn from each other, such as appropriate play behaviour and communication cues. This can enhance their overall behaviour and response to different situations.

​

Mental Stimulation

Engaging in activities with other dogs can challenge your dog's mind and keep them mentally active, contributing to their overall cognitive health.

​

Temperament

Some dogs are naturally more sociable and enjoy the company of other dogs, while others might prefer being alone or have specific preferences regarding the dogs they interact with.

​

History

A dog's previous experiences with other dogs play a significant role. Positive socialisation experiences early in life can shape their comfort level around other dogs.

​

Health and Age

Consider your dog's health and age. Puppies and younger dogs may benefit from interactions with other dogs to develop proper social skills, while older dogs might prefer a more relaxed environment.

​

Behavioural Traits

If your dog displays aggressive or fearful behaviour around other dogs, professional guidance and careful introductions may be necessary to avoid negative experiences.

​

Personal Preferences

Pay attention to your dog's reactions when around other dogs. If they seem stressed, uncomfortable or disinterested, forcing interactions might not be beneficial.

​

For dogs with any of the above specific requirements we can offered tailored walkies, where your pet has full attention and vigilance whilst in my care.
