Winterizing Your Dog
As I peer out the window I see the results of the first snowfall of the year. Our friends Mr. Snow, Ms. Ice and The Cold Family are just beginning to warm up their act here in New England. Don’t forget that winter weather not only impacts us, it impacts our four legged friends as well.
Some dogs tolerate cold well, others not so well. As the mercury drops, keep a close eye on your dog and look for any signs of cold related trouble. It’s OK to let your dog outside, just be sure and check on him or her often. If you happen to check on your canine companion and find him rigid with all four of his paws frozen to the patio, you should seriously consider checking more often.
In addition to the temperature, other winter hazards await as well. When the ice arrives, many of us start throwing salt or other chemicals on our sidewalks and driveways. Some of these products can get stuck between the pads of your dog’s feet and actually burn your dog’s feet. Think about taking your pup with you on your weekly pedicure appointment.
While your Pedicurist is checking your dogs paws for salt and chemicals, have him or her trim any excess hair around your dog’s paws. Snow and ice have a tendency to pack up on excessive paw hair, making it painful for your pup to prance.
If you do notice your dog limping, be sure and take a close look at the pads on the bottom of his paw. Sometimes these pads can get cut or torn when a dog runs across a sharp piece of ice. The solution here is to buy your dogs the new steel-toed Timberland Pro series boot. It sure beats the sissy little sock things those Iditarod sled dogs wear.
Enjoy the weather. “Let’s be careful out there.” For any information regarding our services please visit at: www.smilingdogpetservices.com or you can Contact us bill@smilingdogpetservices.com

career dog trainer for dog sledding?
I am looking into a career with dogs and I’ve visited a dog sledding tour guide service in Albert Canada and now I’m hooked and want to get a career linked with dog sledding. There isn’t really much info as a career on this type of job but I’m guessing training with a tour guide service would benefit for whatever job I wanted to pick as a dog musher or a trainer for dog sledding. Is there a college course or courses that someone would take to go into these careers or is it mostly apprenticeship?
For any business you want to open classes in business management apply.
You should spend a year or two apprenticing under a musher... or maybe a year each for 3 mushers in different geographical areas.
This is a year around 24/7 type job. Seeing how it works and how much work it is and THEN deciding if its something you cannot live happily without doing is key.
