Tips for a Successful Walk
To make every outing a pleasure for you, your companion, and others, here are a few recommendations.
Before the Walk
- Check the equipment
Make sure the harness or collar is properly adjusted and the leash is in good condition.
- Plan for water
Especially in hot weather, bring a water bottle and a portable bowl for your dog.
- Don't forget the bags
Always have waste bags with you to leave the area clean.
During the Walk
- Stay attentive
Keep an eye on your dog and its surroundings to anticipate dangers or encounters.
- Respect nature and others
Keep your dog on a leash if necessary and do not let it disturb wildlife or other walkers.
- Positive socialization
Let your dog meet its peers in a controlled and positive manner. Respect it if another owner does not want interaction.
