The first walk with your dog<\/strong> is more important than you think. Especially if it is the first time you have a dog, and you do not know what you need or how to behave.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here we give you a series of tips so that you both enjoy the experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

First walk with your dog: everything you need to know<\/b><\/h2>\n

Did you know that daily walks with your dog unite you a lot to them? The truth is that they strengthen the bond between you<\/strong>. It is also a significant way of socializing and transmitting knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, the walk should be a daily routine<\/strong>, so it should occur every day, either once a day, twice, or as many as you can.<\/span><\/p>\n

But: what is needed? First of all, the dog must have all the mandatory vaccinations ready<\/strong>: parvovirus, hepatitis, distemper, rabies, leptospirosis, and parainfluenza. It is a way to avoid infections and diseases that you can catch on the street.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is also essential that you wear a leash<\/strong> because it is mandatory. So you must get them used to wear a collar and leash. It is a perfect idea for you to practice at home. Take advantage of those days that you already have it with you but cannot go out because you do not have all the vaccines.<\/span><\/p>\n

What strap to buy? Ideally, start with a short one<\/strong>, maximum of 1 meter long. Extendable leashes are not recommended if you do not know how to use them well, as they encourage your dog to pull continuously.<\/span><\/p>\n

As you start the first walk, you must correct your movements<\/strong>. For example, if they go ahead when they shouldn\u2019t or growl at other dogs or people, you should correct them. Of course, always using a calm tone of voice, betting on positive reinforcement.<\/span><\/p>\n

And when the dog does very good things, you can offer them their favorite treat so that they understand that they are doing something right.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is expected that being the first time you go out to investigate the neighborhood will be done by sniffing, so let them do it calmly.<\/span><\/p>\n

As for the duration of the first walks, the ideal is that they last 10 or 15 minutes<\/strong>. The first thing is that you know the basic rules to go for a walk, and then it will be more comfortable, and you can spend more time walking or playing.<\/span><\/p>\n

At first, it is expected that you do not want to play or walk a lot<\/strong>, you may be scared, and everything seems strange. You have to give it time.<\/span><\/p>\n

By following these tips, the first walk with your dog will be unforgettable, and everything will be fine<\/strong>. You must teach them to live and interact with other dogs and people. Something that you will surely achieve over time.<\/span><\/p>\n
