6 Tips To Be A Neighborly Owner

"Do not do unto others what you don't want others to do unto you." That's the golden rule according to Confucius, a great Chinese philosopher

. That rule can be applied to practically any aspect of life including your being a dog owner. If you do not like the idea of your neighbor's dogs disturbing you, you should also make yourself a responsible dog owner to avoid conflict and to gain respect from others. To bring your neighbors and your dogs closer to you, you can do the following tips:

1.Have your dog trained. Teach your do the basics. You can start by teaching him where his personal space, where he can sleep, where he is supposed to poop and pee, and other little things such as not barking at just anyone he sees. This simple manners will surely make him behave and not make him a nuisance in your house and in the neighborhood as well.

2.Socialize your dog. If your neighbor has a dog, take time to let them play together so they won't bark at each other or your neighbor with every sight. As a responsible dog owner, you should train your dog not to bark at your friendly neighbors because aside from the fact that it can be rude, a dog barking behind your neighbors back can also be annoying.

3.Treat your dog properly. A nice and friendly dog largely reflects on how well he is treated, although some dogs are by nature fierce and some are naturally tamed even without much dog training. Still, you should treat your dog properly by feeding him on time and attending to his basic needs such as providing exercise and walking to prevent him from protesting and making unnecessary barking that could rouse and irritate your neighbors.

4.Make your dog feel comfortable and safe. Pets that are well taken cared of are always happy. When properly taken cared of, dogs grow healthy and friendly. Regularly bathe him, feed him on time, and make sure he's always comfortable and safe.

5.Provide a safe and healthy environment for your dog. Avoid having your dog annoy your neighbors like sleeping on their mats or pooping at their porch. Give him a safe and conducive environment. Make his doghouse well ventilated, clean, and spacious. This way he would always love to stay there and not anywhere else where your neighbors will be disturbed or annoyed.

6.Learn how to be a more responsible dog owner. Part of your being a dog owner are responsibilities that include cleaning after his mess, especially when he pooped in someone else's porch, and making sure that his doghouse or dog corner is kept clean and safe.
