If you were able to ask your dog what he wants to do today, what do you think he'd say? Here are some tips that we believe are what most dogs want in an ideal day:

  • First, they want plenty of time to play!
  • Plenty of good quality sleep time – even 16 to 18 hours a day.
  • Lots of fresh clean water changed daily.
  • Good quality AAFCO approved food made for their stage of life (puppy, adult or senior).
  • Lots of opportunities to go to the bathroom – ideally at least every 6 to 8 hours.
  • A warm safe place to be.
  • To be loved.
