Help your child to become not just a good pet owner, but the best dog owner. This book shows how the right environment and care for a pet helps their body and their mind. Just like humans, dogs can get bored. Did you know that they need a rich environment and plenty of excercise to stimulate their brains and natural behaviours? The right home setup not only keeps them safe, it can reduce stress and help them to live longer. And did you know that dogs are very sensitive and a confident dog likes to know where their place is in the family 'pack'? These popular canines need love and attention for good mental health.Unlike other pet care guides, the Happy Pet Friends series puts your pet's physical and mental health and wellbeing first. These books are packed with tips to make your pet's life happier and healthier, which is great for them, and good for young pet owners and any child with an interest in animal welfare, too. Fostering a lifelong commitment to taking care of the creatures who share our world should start young, and this series is perfect for animal-lovers aged 7 and up.Title in the Happy Pet Friends series:CatsDogsFishGuinea PigsHamstersRabbits
