So, would you be willing to tell us a little more about this lighthouse au????

Absolutely!! I'm literally always happy to talk about my au's hahaha!

The lighthouse keeper au is a modern-day UnDeadwood AU, set in present-ish day Newfoundland. The premise is that Clayton Sharpe, on the run, calls in a favour from Al Swearengen - an old mob contact - to help him relocate, hide, and find new work. Swearengen sends him to the middle of nowhere in Newfoundland, Canada, where they need a new lighthouse keeper for the off shifts. He has month-long shifts where he's alone on a tiny otherwise uninhabited island a few kilometers off the coast of NFLD, and in his time off he lives in the nearby village. In his first "off" month he stumbles across a stray dog, a border collie mix, who he of course keeps. His landlady's daughter names the dog Molly, and after that Clayton and Molly are inseparable.

The nearby village is, of course, where the rest of the gang lives. Arabella is the town/county doctor, while Miriam does delivery type stuff and lives with her wife Joanie. Matthew is the local Anglican priest, and his husband Aly is a professor at MUN (Memorial University of Newfoundland) with a focus on NFLD history (specifically the history of the Black community in the area) who teaches entirely through distance ed, because they live like. 6 hours from St. John's (which is where MUN is located/is the capital city of NFLD, for all y'all non-canadians).

It's both a love letter to Newfoundland (where I do not live, but have visited a few times, and absolutely adore - if it wasn't so far from home I would probably move there), an exploration of solitude and loneliness, a look at finding family in the unlikeliest of places, and a slow-burn romance (as Clayton falls in love with Matthew and Aly, because AlyClaySon will always hold my heart). There's also a dash of "everyone but Clayton is a creature", which comes out in fun ways.

As of right now, it sits at about 30K, and hasn't really been touched in about a year. I really love it, but I'm not entirely sure what to do with it/where I want to the plot to go, so I've focused on other things. Someday I hope to finish it though - I deeply loved writing about something Canadian, and it speaks to the kind of solitude that I find a lot of meaning in. So hopefully someday y'all will get to read the finished product!

There's also been a bunch of it shared over on the UnDeadwood discord - if you're on there, if you search for "lighthouse au" or "lighthouse keeper au" you'll probably find stuff XD and if you're not on the discord, feel free to shoot me a message and I'd be happy to hook you up!

Thanks for the ask!! Sorry for the very long-winded response XD

#this got very long #tragicallynerdy writes #asks #the lighthouse keeper au #it is my most canadian au #and for that i will always adore it

WHAT a great mix of traits!! She's got so much personality and so many unique little features and she's my best friend!!! No other dog can be my number one. I can name favourite purebred dogs but in terms of just Types? It's Agnes babey. She's so so good

#Ough I miss her and love her #She's good and happy and still very soft and silly #I will hopefully get to visit her soon #And my friend who owns her #But like I can phone my friend any time #I have to see my dog in person

How to Calm Down an Excited Puppy

https://www.centralparkpaws.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Why-is-my-puppy-hyper-overexcited-rambunctious-ball-of-energy-causes.jpg I love puppies!

I love their little puppy tummies, their soft little paws, even their puppy breath.

I could watch puppies play and tumble for hours and never get bored. I think that puppies are one of life’s greatest joys, but also one of life’s greatest challenges!

When Daisy was a puppy, she was tiny and cute and one heck of a ball of energy!

Being that I had taught several puppy classes and obedience classes, I was under the misguided impression that I was all set to take on this challenge.

I couldn’t have been more wrong!

I used to walk Daisy four times a day, and that wasn’t enough to calm her down.

Eventually, I was able to get her into daycare, which was an amazing transformation. Though she was still energetic, it took off quite a bit of the excess energy.

Raising an extremely high energy headstrong puppy alone was both an eye-opening and humbling experience.

It didn’t take long for me to realize I had my work cut out for me.

Ultimately, if your puppy has too much energy, they will be fluffy balls of terror that chew, bark, and bite.

Why Is My Puppy so Hyper?

There are a few common reasons a puppy might be hyper:

Breed

Lack of exercise

Lack of mental stimulation

Overstimulation by distractions

Some breeds are more hyper than other breeds.

For example, a Jack Russell terrier is likely to be more energetic than a Newfoundland puppy.

Though, the breed of dog is not a rule, but instead more of a guide.

My family’s first Golden Retriever, Gracie, was a calm, easy to train puppy whereas my mom’s second Golden, Gussie, was a wild and crazy ball of energy.

If your puppy is crated during the day when you are at work, it is normal for your puppy to have a lot of energy to burn off when you get home.

Likely, your puppy will have been sleeping all day in your absence, so now that they are rested, they are all set to party!

Bored puppies are not that much different than bored children. They tend to find their own way to entertain themselves, which usually leads to them getting themselves into trouble.

Capacitors almost at full charge. Hyperactivity imminent!

Also, if your puppy has too much stimulation, say kids running in and out or you have company over, puppies will often feed off the fun energy and become over stimulated, which can look like a hyper puppy.

All puppies have their hyper moments and we need to help them find ways to burn off that excess energy in more productive and less destructive ways.

How to Calm Down a Hyper Puppy

First and foremost, you need to make sure your puppy is getting enough exercise.

If you have a puppy that has not had a way to release some of that puppy energy it is near impossible to work with them constructively.

Exercise

The amount of exercise a puppy is getting or not getting impacts your dog’s level of energy.

Exercising puppies is a complicated task. Not enough exercise and your puppy is a demon, and too much exercise can cause significant health issues.

There aren’t any set rules or formulas for how much exercise a puppy requires.

The breed is a significant factor in deciding the amount and type of exercise your puppy should get.

Larger dogs may seem like they can go for long walks, but too much exercise has been linked with orthopedic disease[1]. Short, low impact exercise sessions are the best.

Also, keep the exercise fun and change it up from time to time to avoid boredom.

Some great ways to exercise puppies are:

Walks (Mix it up by going to different areas, making time to allow your puppy to explore and smell things they encounter on the walk)

Fetch

Swimming (Take this slow; not all dogs like the water or know how to swim)

As your puppy grows, the exercise sessions can become longer and fewer.

Also, as they become bigger and stronger, you can change the type of exercise by adding things like agility training or running.

Mental stimulation

Don’t let your puppy’s silly manner fool you into thinking that they don’t require mental stimulation.

Mental stimulation is essential to your puppy’s mental development.

The breed of dog impacts the amount of mental stimulation a puppy needs.

Breeds like Border Collies, German Shepherds, and Dobermans require more mental stimulation than other breeds.

But just like exercise, all dogs need some form of mental stimulation to keep their brains engaged.

Bored puppies can get themselves into a lot of trouble, but mental stimulation like training can help drain excess energy and help promote calm behaviors[2].

Here are some excellent ways to keep your puppy’s mind sharp:

Training

Both classroom and in-home training are effective ways to keep your puppy’s brain working.

Puzzle Toys

These toys involve your dog finding a way to access food.

Also, many puzzle toys take some time, which will give you a few minutes to get things done.

Hide and Seek

A simple and fun game that will provide exercise and mental stimulation.

Ask someone to hold or distract your puppy while you go and hide nearby.

Call your puppy randomly (like a game of Marco Polo) to keep them focused.

When the puppy finds you be sure to shower them with happy praise, but do not jump out and scare your puppy.

Remember to start with easy hiding places. This will keep your puppy from losing interest.

As your puppy catches onto the game you can hide further away from their starting point and in more challenging locations.

Find It

This is similar to hide and seek, but instead of you, they find an object or treat.

Again, start out easy.

Show them the object, place a blanket over it in front of them, then say find it.

Gradually you can increase the difficulty of where you hide the object, just make sure that is always somewhere they can reach; you don’t want to teach bad behaviors like jumping on tables.

Settle

Another way to help your puppy to settle down is to teach the “settle” command.

Yes, you can train a puppy to chill out on command!

Settle is extremely helpful when you have a high stimulation situation, such as when someone comes to the door or you have guests, but it can also be used out in public to get your dog to rest calmly on restaurant patios and such.

Settle Training Necessities

To train settle, you will need:

Clicker – These will mark the behavior you want from your puppy.

Recommendation: NewNewStar Pet Training Clicker

Small High-Value Training Treats – Soft treats work best since they are easy for puppies to consume quickly.

Recommendations: Cloud Star Tricky Trainers, Blue Buffalo Wilderness Trail Treats, or Buckley Trainers

Treat Tote – Helps to keep your clothes clean and makes it easy to access treats.

Recommendation: Chuckit! Treat Tote

Bed or Mat – You can use a towel, rug, or bed.

Patience and a Quiet Area – Puppies get distracted easily, so the quieter an area is, the better chance of success you will have

How to Train Settle

First, if you have never used a clicker for training you will need to “load” the clicker.

You do this by clicking the clicker then immediately give your dog a treat. You will repeat this twenty times in a row.

Be sure that you are not clicking directly into your puppy’s ear. This is supposed to be positive and will teach your puppy that when they hear the noise, they will receive a treat.

Second, place the mat or bed on the floor.

When your puppy walks over onto the mat, even with one paw, click and toss the treat nearby, but not on the mat.

When your puppy comes back to the mat you will repeat this.

Do not put words to this.

Do not cue your puppy to go to the mat; just sit next to it and wait quietly.

Puppies tend to learn faster when they are able to figure it out for themselves.

Do not provide praise outside of the treat. This is a calming technique and the stimulus of your touch or voice can set your puppy into an excited mindset.

Eventually, once your puppy is consistent about coming to the mat, wait to treat until they are completely on the mat.

Then, progress to when they are laying on the mat.

When your puppy is reliably going to the mat and laying down, you can add the vocal command “settle.”

You can say “good settle” after you click and treat.

Once your puppy goes to the mat and lays down, slowly lengthen the time in between when you give treats.

Stimulation Removal

Sometimes puppies are overly stimulated and skip taking naps; this combination is a sure recipe for a demon puppy.

Imagine a child with too much sugar, but without a nap.

Essentially, puppies can get that way also.

Often, removing the puppy to a quiet area can help bring your puppy’s energy down.

You can put them in their crate with a filled Kong in a quiet room; this will help your puppy settle down.

Tips for Calming Down a Puppy

Stay calm. Your excitement will feed your puppy’s excitement.

Quiet, dark rooms can help reduce stimulus and aid your puppy in relaxing.

Make sure your puppy is getting enough exercise. Remember, a tired puppy is a well behaved puppy.

There will always be times your puppy will act silly and crazy, and that’s okay some of the time.

But a puppy left in an excited state of mind for too long can cause issues for the puppy as they develop socially and emotionally[3].

Remember, patience is key.

New puppies can be overwhelming to dog parents; it’s not that much different than bringing home a baby.

There will be a lack of sleep, a lot of messes to clean up, and a lot of crying, but with patience and positive training any challenge can be overcome.

Puppies don’t stay puppies for long, so enjoy this time while you have it.

FAQs

How Do You Calm a Puppy Down at Night?

Proper exercise, full tummy, empty bladder, and a quiet, dark room with the family nearby will help calm a peppy at night.

Often puppies are separated from their family at bedtime which can be a little scary for them, so if possible, move the crate to your bedroom.

This will make your puppy feel safe and relaxed.

When (At What Age) Do Puppies Calm Down?

It varies from dog to dog, but most dogs tend to calm down between 18 – 24 months of age.

Choosing a Dog

For what reason would you say you are getting a dog? The awards from having a canine are genuine however difficult to characterize. It tends to be for organization, for work out, to decrease pressure, for security, or numerous different reasons. It's somewhat similar to having a two year old youngster that never grows up, and on the off chance that you don't care for kids perhaps you don't care for canines by the same token. Keeping a canine costs a considerable lot of cash as well (yet they are far less expensive than youngsters!)

What sort of canine? Think about the accompanying as a sort of agenda. Your responses to these inquiries will limit your decision impressively.

Does the canine need to coexist well with kids? It is frequently the biggest canines that are best with kids; toy canines are excessively fragile for little youngsters to deal with.

Does the canine need to coexist well with different canines and pets?

Is the canine simple to deal with, or does it need a proprietor who is knowledgeable about canine preparing?

Would you like to go on your canine on outings with you? This is a lot simpler with a little or medium measured canine.

What amount practice does the canine need; how long and energy would you say you are set up to spend practicing the canine? A few varieties need substantially more exercise than others. Recall that the canine requirements practice whatever the climate.

Does the canine need a great deal of room or is it reasonable for living in a condo?

Do you need a guard dog or one that is benevolent to outsiders?

Would you like to let the canine be during the day while you are grinding away?

Do you need a canine that is OK for individuals who experience the ill effects of sensitivities?

Does the canine need a ton of preparing and if so would you say you will do it without anyone's help or pay another person to do it? Some long haired canines need substantially more preparing. Nonetheless, numerous canines that needn't bother with preparing do shed hair continually.

Choose if you explicitly need a male or female canine.

Crossbreed - blended variety They are regularly free or exceptionally modest to get, and less expensive to protect. They are generally better with less social peculiarities than family canines. Then again you won't realize how your canine will end up in the event that you get a crossbreed doggy. Be cautious about getting a canine that is promoted as 'free to a decent home' and so on as it is possible that the manner in which it was raised has made wellbeing or conduct issues. Canine homes consistently have an inventory of blended variety canines and can generally give you some thought of the canine's conduct, wellbeing and so forth Additionally they should reclaim a canine that ends up having issues or is unacceptable in any way, shape or form.

Family breeds If you need a family canine pick a couple of breeds that you think might be appropriate. In the event that you are not extremely acquainted with the variety read as much as possible about it. Counseling Breed guidelines is vital in the event that you need to raise from it, or find real success at canine shows, yet not as supportive concerning breed medical issues, character of the canine, prepping or preparing, yet other more broad books will fill the hole. On the off chance that you simply need a pet your need is a sound polite canine and many 'shortcomings' identifying with size, construct, shading and markings and so forth won't concern you. On the off chance that you tell the reproducer this you may get offered an extraordinary cost for a canine that will be a decent pet however isn't reasonable for rearing or canine shows. As per Wikipedia the American Kennel Club perceives about 170breeds of canine, excessively many even to show them all here. For comfort, it isolates all canine varieties into seven gatherings:

Wearing Dogs for example pointers, setters, retrievers and numerous spaniels. They for the most part need a considerable lot of activity. Breeds that are for the most part great with youngsters incorporate Labrador Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, English Setters, English Cocker Spaniel, American Cocker Spaniel and Flat Coated Retriever.

Working Dogs for example monitor canines, for example, Rottweiler or Doberman Pinscher, and sled canines, for example, Malamute or Husky. They generally need a lot of activity and a decent lot of room. The Newfoundlander appears as though a monster teddy bear and is noted for its tenderness and amicableness. It is especially acceptable with kids and makes an extraordinary family canine. It was destined to swim and needs a great deal of prepping.

Toy Dogs for example Yorkshire Terriers, Toy Poodles, Shih Tzus, Pugs, Pomeranians, Maltese. These are appropriate for city lofts and needn't bother with much exercise so are more reasonable for the old and housebound. Anyway toy canines and little kids don't blend well!

Terriers for example Yorkshire terrier, Boston terrier, Scottish terrier, Cairn terrier. This gathering incorporates little and medium estimated canines. They for the most part need confident taking care of and are better with more established kids. They are vivacious and appreciate games, for example, playing with Frisbees. Note that bull terriers, Pit bulls and Staffordshire terriers were initially reared as battling canines. They need an accomplished proprietor who will guarantee that they are appropriately mingled and prepared.

Dogs - Sight dogs incorporate Afghans, Borzoi, Greyhounds and Salukis. These are quick and fiery. They ought to consistently be kept on a lead besides in a fenced zone else they can run off pursuing a squirrel or feline. Anyway more seasoned greyhounds become a lot calmer and resigned hustling canines can make astounding pets once they become familiar with living in a house. Whenever practiced altogether mornings and nights greyhounds can adjust to being left alone throughout the day. The Irish Wolfhound is perhaps the biggest variety. A grown-up male will gauge 120 to 160 pounds. They make great family canines as they are dependable, tolerant, acceptable tempered and loving. Aroma dogs incorporate Dachshunds, Bloodhounds, Bassets and Beagles. They are a lot more settled than sight dogs. Beagles are exceptionally mainstream as they are faithful, and acceptable with kids and different pets. Anyway they are not all that simple to prepare as they have an autonomous streak and will follow an aroma paying little mind to whatever else.

Crowding Dog e.g.Shetland Sheepdog, Border Collie, Collie, and German Shepherd. These varieties were initially evolved to crowd cows and sheep so they are shrewd and athletic. Shetland sheepdogs and boundary collies do require a ton of activity and space to run. German Shepherds are perhaps the most well known varieties, yet have experienced deformities due to over-rearing. They ought to be solid, fearless, steadfast and collected, however these days there are some which are bashful and anxious which ought to be maintained a strategic distance from.

Non-wearing canine. This gathering incorporates all the varieties that don't find a way into any of different gatherings. A wide assortment of types and sizes including the Bichon Frise, Chow, Dalmatian, Bulldog, Boston Terrier and Poodle.

Creator Dogs. This is a term utilized for half and half canines which are conscious crosses between two varieties trying to get the alluring characteristics of the two varieties with no of the issues related with one or the other variety. Poodles are well known for these crosses since they have non-shedding covers which ought to be better for individuals with sensitivities. The non-shedding coat is by all accounts a prevailing trademark present in all the first era crosses. For example a Labrador retriever crossed with a poodle is known as a Labradoodle, a combination of a pug and a beagle is a puggle, a cockapoo is a cross between a cocker spaniel and a poodle and goldendoodle is a cross between a brilliant retriever and a poodle. With 170 varieties to kick off from that point are more than 14,000 potential mixes of two varieties! There are now more than 100 distinctive half and half varieties enlisted at the American Canine Hybrid Club.

Wellbeing Different varieties are inclined to different inherited sicknesses, for example, hip dysplasia, aortic stenosis or entropion. Prior to purchasing a family canine check which infections that breed is inclined to and check with the reproducer that the guardians of the canine you pick have been confirmed liberated from deserts.

Hypersensitivities and Hypoallergenic canines If somebody in your family experiences sensitivities it is reasonable to pick a low-shedding canine, for example, a poodle, however all canines produce a few allergens. On the off chance that you speculate a sensitivity to the canine you need to visit an expert to check if the canine truly is the reason. There are numerous approaches to lessen the effect of a sensitivity for example hard floors rather than rugs, antihistamine medicines.

Best Dog Breeds for Families: A Best Friend For All

Looking to add a new member to the family by adopting a new dog? When choosing a new puppy or dog for adoptions, consider the best dog breeds for families based on size, temperament and lifestyle. You might be surprised to what little (or big) furball is your next most amazing best friend.

Best Dog Breeds for Kids

Kids and dogs don’t always get along. The reason is simple, neither respect boundaries at times. If you have kids, especially younger once who haven’t spent a lot of time around dogs, choose the right breed with a good temperament known for being around energetic kids.

The American Kennel Club recommends considering your home’s physical interior and exterior environment when considering any of the breeds considered great with kids. Your new best friend needs to be a good fit from all sides.

Golden Retriever

Who doesn’t want their own Air Bud? Golden retrievers are loyal, smart, confident and loyal. They are particularly patient with children and seem to relish the extra attention and energy kids bring to the relationship.

Labrador Retriever

Whether it is fetch or frolicking in the ocean waves, Labrador retrievers are great family dogs. Not only are they extremely playful dogs, but they are also protective of the little beta and omega members of the family (aka the kiddos), keeping them safe from all sorts of trouble.

Beagle

Maybe best idolized in the Peanuts cartoon series for decades, kids around the world love Snoopy. The Beagle is a small dog that won’t overwhelm kids. He is patient and calm. For kids who love to be outside, the hound in this dog make him the perfect exploration companion thanks to his keen hunting dog’s heritage.

Collies

Lassie was always there to save the day. But as Babe the Pig learned, Lassie’s cousin, the Border Collie is smart, loyal and playful. Collie breeds in general are smart and easy learners. These medium-sized dogs love showing off new tricks with their kid playmates whenever possible.

Newfoundland

These dogs are great water dogs and considered one of the smartest breeds out there. Many dog experts call the Newfoundland “Nature’s Babysitter” because the big lovable beast doesn’t mind being a pillow and a playmate.

Even though we have highlighted some great breeds made famous in film, television and print, not every breed on television is a good example of a family dog for kids. After 101 Dalmatians was first released, families across American bought Dalmatian puppies only to flood shelters a year later when the high-strung dog either nipped at children or created disarray in homes where they couldn’t be the center of attention. Not every dog is a great companion for children.

Best Dog Breed for New Couples

New couples often adopt a purebred dog before they create a kid. It’s a good way to see how well you parent together. Finding a perfect family companion at a local shelter is a great way to build a family and help a dog in need. Many mixed breeds found at shelters are perfect for new couples.

At the same time, pure breeds are often a gift in a relationship, representing things are getting serious. It doesn’t matter if you choose smaller or larger dogs. Find one that fits your home meeting the needs of apartment living, patio dining or camping trips.

Basset Hound

https://ift.tt/2QnJgpw

If you want someone to take the karaoke mic on Friday nights, the Basset Hound your dog. He’ll howl with you and all your friends because he loves everyone including strangers. This hunting dog breed seems to have endless tail wags unless he catches the scent of something to hunt. These dogs need moderate exercise but are flexible with how. Meaning they are happy with the walk down to the local café patio for an afternoon of people watching.

Boston Terriers

https://ift.tt/2RSd0HA

This breed is a big dog in a little dog’s body. They proudly stand as if they are lions but remain as gentle as just about any breed out there. The short snout makes the Boston Terrier less suitable for places that get extremely hot because they can easily overheat, but these dogs do well in apartments, accept new family members such as newborns or other dogs with ease, and don’t have a lot of separation anxiety.

English Bulldog

A great family animal where there are other dogs, cats and even when kids get introduced. English Bulldogs are gentle protectors that don’t need a lot of space. They do well in temperate climates and become the subject of many social media videos with their snoring while chilling on movie night.

German Shepherd

A great protector because this dog was bred to protect the sheep and goat herds. German Shepherds are outgoing dogs who love to play, are courageous and curious. Many shepherd owners claim their dog is very aloof to strangers much like a lone wolf. These are working dogs that do best with routine and tasks to keep their mind active. German Shepherds do have a tendency to develop hip dysplasia from breeding practices.

Great Dane

Not quite a lap dog, but he might think he is. Hitting the scales at around 120 pounds, these dogs are big but as gentle as they come. Great Danes are stubborn and wary of other dogs on walks they don’t know. Training is essential though they do well with other animals in the home.

Best Dog Breeds for Elderly

Considering dogs for families should consider breeds for a family, regardless of the age. Elderly couples gain a lot of companionship spending time with a dog in the house. Studies have shown elderly people stay healthier with dogs partly because dogs reduce stress, force elderly people to remain active and provide security.

An elderly couple who has grandchildren visiting frequently needs to consider not just a dog that is good for them but is tolerant of the spitballs of energy that come to see them on the weekends. Elderly dog owners should consider smaller dog breeds simply for the safety factor of handling the strength and energy of a dog.

Poodle

Standard poodles are adventurous and require some yard space to investigate and play otherwise they’ll find themselves in the laundry basket. The miniature poodle is known to get particularly attached to one person, making them the ideal lap dog companion. This breed needs scheduled grooming but doesn’t shed much and is low-maintenance between grooming visits.

Corgi

A little waddle encourages a lot of walking. The Queen’s choice: Corgi’s are fun dogs who learn tricks before you even teach them. These are very stubborn dogs because they are so bright. But with a little training, they become loyal and fun companions. They do as much to encourage play as they do cuddling together with cozy nights by the fireplace.

Maltese

Small, loves to cuddle and doesn’t shed. What isn’t there to love about the eyes poking through that long hair around the crest of the Maltese’s head? These are friendly dogs who love just about everyone and are perfect for grandma when home by herself. Then they jump right in when the grandkids want to play.

Pug

What better dog to understand our aging bodies than the pug. Heck, a few extra wrinkles make this eating and sleeping machine even more adorable. If any dog is a couch potato, the pug certainly is. Avoid giving those silly big eyes table scraps and provide encourage a little bit of play to keep their weight down.

Best Dog Breeds for Active Lifestyles

Families of all sizes, whether with kids or without, who live an active lifestyle don’t want to leave their dog behind. If you love hiking, hanging out at the lake or horseback riding on trails, you’ll want a breed that loves being outside as much as you do.

While many dog breeds are bred for outdoor activities, owners need to be the fun warden. Dogs will push themselves without care for their own health. Extreme weather (both hot and cold), extended activities without rest or not paying attention to the subtle differences of an aging dog can lead to disaster.

Here are some great breed to take with your family on those outdoor treks.

Irish Setter

Amazing athletes who love to play fetch. If your kids are playing at the park, the Irish Setter is just as happy retrieving tennis balls for the afternoon. Their stature makes them great jogging partners and their gorgeous coat keeps them cozy in snowy conditions.

Cocker Spaniel

This is a game dog who might proudly bring you a few birds as gifts. They are great in apartments or houses but do need time to cut loose and run so make sure you set time for them to play. These are easy going dogs who do well on trails, camping or hunting.

Bull Terrier

Spud MacKenzie put the Bull Terrier in the spotlight with his her (portrayed as him) starring roles in Bud Light beer commercials in the late 1980s. This breed knows his role is to be the life of the party, seemingly playing jokes on his family. These are loyal dogs with a ton of brute strength so provide outdoor time where they can explore and release that energy positively.

Weimaraner

A gorgeous dog bound to make friends for the whole family with his hazel eyes and silvery coat. Another sports dog great with the family but need both mental and physical stimulation to exhaust that immense curiosity he is born with. The Weimaraner is fast enough to keep up with you on a mild mountain bike trek and make even sprint for the win at the end (and beat you).

Boxer

Known for their jumping ability, Boxers need a good yard with excellent containment if you don’t want to be chasing him throughout the neighborhood. These dogs are strong just love to be the life of the party. They’ll make you feel safer on a camping trip with their protective nature and keen hearing.

Whatever type of dog you choose for your family, be sure to spend the time and energy to train the dog and your family. Consistency among family members including kids helps dogs understand their place in the pack. This helps reduce dominant and even aggressive behavior.

Always teach young children how to treat dogs and what signs a dog will show when he is stressed, upset or angry. It is always the owner’s responsibility to make sure everyone is safe, including the dog.

What Are the Best Farm Dogs?

Unless you are a student of agricultural history and trends, you might not know that a substantial number of domestic dog breeds were originally developed as working farm dogs. We tend to think of dogs primarily as friends, companions or family members, and not as essential components of the process by which we obtain our food. Prior to the start of the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century, however, every animal raised in rural and farming communities — including fowls, livestock and dogs — played practical, integral roles in the food system.

When we mention farm dogs, you may think specifically of medium or large canines who herd sheep, cattle, or pigs. During a more agrarian era, dogs of all sizes and breeds found employment on farms. Despite the fact that most of us live at several degrees from farm life, the variety of farm dogs and their functions has not changed. When we try, then, to determine or narrow down the best farm dogs, we need to take under consideration both the range of dog breeds and the tasks required of them. The general categories of working dog jobs include:

Guarding livestock

Herding farm animals

Ratters / pest control

Multipurpose dogs

Livestock guardians

Thinking of farm dogs may immediately evoke images of our first two categories; specifically large, hardy dogs who monitor and protect vulnerable livestock. Livestock farming encompasses a wide range of birds and beasts raised for the meat, milk, eggs, wool or skin. A farmer or rancher cannot possibly watch flocks or herds while attending to all of their other duties.

For centuries, dogs of all sizes, types, and breeds have dedicated themselves to caring for cattle, sheep and goats. The best guard dogs are those who blend in effectively with their charges, defend them from predators, and be attentive day or night as required. Breeds involved in livestock protection tend to cut a large and imposing figure, possess a stentorian bark, and depend on either intimidation or surprise in their work.

Notable livestock guardians include:

Anatolian Shepherd

Great Pyrenees

Komondor

Maremma Sheepdog

Mastiff (Neapolitan, Spanish, and Tibetan)

Herding dogs

German Shepherds were bred to be farm dogs, or herding dogs specifically. Photography by smikeymikey1 / Shutterstock.

Another common type of canine associated with bucolic life is the herding dog. The term may conjure pastoral poems and idyllic landscape paintings that depict a lone shepherd overlooking a field under a summer sky with a trusty dog by his side. It’s a misnomer to associate them exclusively with cattle or sheep, though, since their herds and flocks are just as likely to be populated by chickens, ducks, goats, llamas, and pigs.

Effective herding dogs are capable of leading out these farm animals out to pasture in the morning, and back to the safety of the pen or coop in the evening. They are highly trained farm dogs that respond without hesitation to commands, gestures, and sounds. Dogs who are good herders are both agile and alert, but don’t have to be huge to corral even the largest livestock. We may think of Corgis as amusing companions and pets, but they were originally developed in Wales for their skill in herding. They could encourage bulky ungulates to get a move on while their small stature helped avoid the kick of a hoof.

Among the best herding dogs:

Australian Cattle Dog

Belgian Shepherd (Groenendael, Laekenois, Malinois, and Tervueren)

Border Collie

German Shepherd

Old English Sheepdog

Rottweiler

Welsh Corgi (Cardigan and Pembroke)

Rat dogs

As vital as they are to livestock farming, protection and herding are not the only jobs that working farm dogs hold. Dogs are just as important on farms that produce fruits, vegetables, and grains. Even on livestock farms, risks to productivity and inventory are not limited to live animals. Farm dogs can be critical to controlling pest populations. An unwelcome infestation — and really, what kind of infestation is welcome? — might destroy a crop in the field, steal harvested foodstuffs in storage, or devour eggs.

Keeping farm products safe from pests is largely the province of small, energetic, and tenacious dogs. Like the term “cattle dog,” to call these dogs “ratters” is to sell them short. Yes, they are expert at tracking and catching rodents, rats and mice primarily, but also badgers, ferrets, possums, raccoons, stoats, and so forth. Many of the best ratting dogs were developed throughout the United Kingdom in the 18th and 19th centuries, and among them are some of the most popular modern domestic breeds.

The best ratters and pest control dogs include:

Brussels Griffon

Dachshund

Jack Russell Terrier

Miniature Pinscher

Rat Terrier

West Highland White Terrier

Yorkshire Terrier

Some of the best farm dogs are all-purpose

Some dogs herd, some dogs offer protection, while yet others still are experts at loss-prevention and rodent control. Surely that covers the gamut of what dogs do on farms! Wrong! Many of the best farm dogs, from ancient times to the present, have been capable of handling these tasks and more. Large and giant dog breeds, in particular, have proven adept at herding, guarding, and pest control.

Even tasks we typically associate with pack animals like mules, horses, and oxen, were, in less civilized ages, done by dogs. Fortunately, these days, carting is more of an occasional and specialist sport than a full-time occupation. Dogs who once served as draught animals included Newfoundlands, Saint Bernards, and the Swiss Mountain Dog family (Appenzell, Bernese, Entelbucher, and Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs).

Urban farms need dogs, too!

Urban farming has taken off in recent decades as organizations and individuals have attempted to address a growing need for fresh produce in cities that doesn’t have to be trucked in over large distances. These farms also serve the demand of restaurateurs to increase their focus on locally sourced fruits and vegetables, and supply community supported agriculture services in delivering food to people interested in circumventing chain grocery stores. Dogs are present on some of these urban farms as well, mostly serving in companion roles.

A further variant, hobby farming, has also exploded in popularity. Hobby farms have sprung up everywhere from small yards in urban areas, where they replace otherwise useless lawns, to rural plots maintained by weekend and part-time gardeners. In places like these, dogs of all sizes are still performing slight variations on their traditional roles, from pest control and crop protection to herding backyard chickens. Dogs have been employed, trusted, and loved on farms as long as there have been farms. Long may it remain so!

It's just as necessary to understand which individual meals excel in normal health and wellness, however bad if the dog is with indigestion, also some food could be risky and also create some significant health issue. Managers could prefer to spend in challenges for their canine if that has actually ended up being a significant trouble. An all-white dog or a canine without white colored is actually suspended from the conformation series band. The West Plateau White (# 32) is actually happy, bold, self-assured, bold, analytical and possesses a lot of individuality. Products based on this Terrier, which is actually most often illustrated in dark yet occasionally in a wheaten or white colored color or a blended black and brown brindle layer different colors, help make a fantastic concept to offer to enthusiasts and also managers. When I'll acquire unhappy as well as aged I will definitely modify my point of view and also acquire a tiny friend pet dog, maybe. The smaller sized type was known as the Lesser Newfoundland, or St. John's canine The St. John's pet came to be the founding breed from the modern-day retrievers. After that you have to mix 1/4 mug white vinegar with 1/2 cup warm and comfortable water as well as use the vinegar mixture to the carpeting with the sponge once more. See our web site and uncover exactly how pet owners could safely maintain clean pet teeth at home with all natural items. Nevertheless, I do not support anyone offering their canine a calcium supplement, even if they have actually observed muscle spasms taking place. Character: While the Border Collie will Http://today-healthy.info connect very closely along with its own coach, this is actually certainly not the most ideal pet dog for a household with small children. Hi m pet is pair of i attempted to reproduce her (with the exact same kind of course) she merely ended up giving birth to one puppy which she lost. The electrical automated pet waterers like the petmate clean circulation can be found in different dimensions, possess charcoal filters and a pump to reuse the water all day. With the crush of Lip-lip, White Fang can have become forerunner of the pack. The pet was acquired to quell my sibling but she doesn't really have fun with it in all. The area should be decided on and all the required plannings produced before putting the dog in position, due to the fact that pets come to be uninterested, and present it if they are actually always kept waiting in one spot for long. Back in those days numerous herdsmen wanted dogs along with white colored coatings, given that they were actually much easier to differentiate from International wolves, which were actually darker. This is actually achievable, but if your pressure your mama to accomplish one thing she definitely does not want to do, that will be miserable for everybody and the pet. , if your pet dog seems to be actually in discomfort or even distress and also is continuously checking out to or even stroke lick at his rear, then by all meanscheck it out! For a tiny, cosy, white colored dog to be designated as threatening would certainly appear to show that dog breeders are actually possibly certainly not paying enough attention to character when making their options from pillar pets. The pugilist dog may from time to time come in a white colored coat, yet some clubs will misread white colored pugilists.
