Teaching Your Kids to Care for Puppy: What Your Child Can Do Many parents often buy a family pet not with themselves in mind but with their children’s interests at heart. If you have recently brought home a new member of the family for your little one to love, then you’ll probably want to teach your little one how to care for their puppy. One of the major pitfalls of bringing a puppy into the home for parents is that they often take over chores that their children can do on their own. Our children are often more capable than we think. If you aren’t sure what chores your child can do, read on to find chores that are age appropriate for your child. Age Two While it’s easy to see why a two year old might be limited in the work they can do, allow them to “help” you in simple tasks. Letting them feel included will instill a lifelong love of caring for their pets. Ages Three to Four Three and four year olds can water and feed puppy. You might want to let them do this in steps using a small cup. A bowl can be difficult for a child to carry, especially when filled, without spilling. A cup gives little hands more control. It may take them a few trips between the sink and the bowl but they are perfectly capable of this task. Five to Eight This age range can be trusted with brushing puppy as they aren’t likely to be rough. The motor skills of a five year old greatly rival those of a four year old. Their hands are much steadier and thus, able to brush puppy with gentle care. Six to eight year olds can be trusted with puppy’s leash and taking puppy out for potty breaks. While a younger child is perfectly capable of this, they are more apt to run after puppy if he gets off the leash when you aren’t around. This could lead to them running out into the street without looking and you definitely don’t want that! When it comes to caring for pets, there are really only two things that they should never do . . . one is be allowed to give their puppies medicine and two, being allowed to clean out the cage. While medicine has obvious worries when in the hands of a child, a pet’s cage can carry parasites and germs that may find their way into your child’s mouth. |

Sneezes and Wheezes: Living with Pets and Allergies Pets and allergies . . . they have long been a feared combination. As we all know, pet hair and other pet triggers can make allergies and asthma worse. However, while it is a delicate balance without the proper medicines and techniques, with a few helpful hints and tips, the two of you can share a lifelong friendship all while keeping your allergies at bay. Have an Allergy Panel Test If you don’t have an allergist, ask your family doctor to refer you to one in the area. An allergy panel test is a great step in finding the triggers that aggravate your allergies and ultimately learning to manage the symptoms of your allergies or asthma. The test is relatively painless and feels like a finger nail scratch at best. The nurse will simply scratch a few places on your skin and then introduce an allergy stimulant such as grass or dog hair. If you have a reaction – don’t worry. You will not have any internal symptoms such as wheezing or swelling. Your skin will simply react by producing a small rash in the area that was treated. After you know your triggers, the doctor can help you control them with inhalers, anti-histamines and any emergency medicines you may require. Clean Your Pet’s Crate Often While you should clean your pet’s crate often anyway, if you have allergies you should clean it even more than the average pet owner. If possible, have someone else in the house, preferably without allergies, do this for you. Doing this will keep your symptoms to a minimum. But why will simply cleaning out puppy’s crate help? Crates don’t usually catch much pet hair, right? While this is correct, often times, a person is not allergic to their pet’s hair . . . it’s often the other triggers that come with pets such as dander and urine that send them into sneeze mode. Vacuum Daily When you have an indoor pet, allergens can build up quickly - especially in carpets. Make sure that you are vacuuming daily to get rid of hairs and dander. Keep Your Sleeping Space Sacred While we all know that snuggling up with a furry pet makes for one cozy night’s rest, it is not ideal for an allergy sufferer. Keep your sleeping quarters sacred and don’t allow your pet into your bedroom. This will give you a safe haven when allergies appear and ensure that you can sleep without having to worry about asthma attacks or running noses and itchy eyes. When it comes to allergies and pets, the two can live in harmony with just a little patience and diligence. And in the end . . . sneezes and all, the love you share will be well worth the effort. |
