Segregation From the Pack
Dogs are pack animals. For a domestic dog, you are their pack and family.
If you’re constantly pushing your dog away or ignoring them when they try to climb in your lap and give you kisses, you’re not only depriving them of affection but also going against their nature.
Letting your dog stick its head out of a moving vehicle
Allowing a dog’s head to be exposed on the road can be dangerous. Branches, rocks or other debris could collide with the animal’s head. The wind also carries dust and foreign objects that could harm your dog’s eyes. Ear damage is another concern. Even worse, the dog might feel the impulse to jump out of a moving car.
Giving Your Dog Bones
Many vets believe it just isn’t worth the risk of serious injuries to give your dog a bone. Giving dogs a real bone could be deadly. The bone could shatter and puncture their esophagus, stomach, or intestines. Your dog could even break a tooth, get a tongue or mouth injury, or have an obstruction that could require surgery.
