One of your Habibi Bear puppy’s super power is to always be present in the moment and living in the now. They enjoy whatever is offered to them at the and their place in it. moment, whether it be their breakfast, play time, cuddle time, or walkies.
One gift and treasure that we can share with our loving Habibi Bear guys and gals is to put down our phones and be fully engaged with them on their walkies. Walkies are a time and opportunity to bond more deeply with your dog, and enjoy a mutually beneficial shared experience.
Walking is a crucial activity for your Habibi Bear dog. It gives them a chance to exercise their primary sense: the sense of smell. Remember for a dog it is the most important sense that they have, it is the sense that is fully functional when they are born, seeing and hearing develop after they are three weeks old. They have 994 million more smell receptors in their nose than humans and can smell things up to 7-12 miles away. Their sense of smell tells them everything they need to know about the world and their place in it. When you are the person who accompanies them on this wondrous journey, it is a memory shared that will be deposited in their little love bank, which will grow daily with each new walk, with interest. What a fantastic return on sharing your time with your puppy.
Walking also helps burn off extra energy, helps puppy settle easily, and gives you both a chance to practice listening and obeying commands. It is an optimal chance for learning in a positive environment, especially when reinforced with some tasty treats.
We can recognize the “every-good-thing-in-the-world” formula for your puppy in this equation:
Mom or Dad + treats + smells + walk outside = This is the Best Day of My Life
There are developing new schools of thought that recommend calming an anxious dog by taking them on more smell or scent walks to help them self-soothe. What a simple yet powerful activity to share with your beloved Habibi Bear puppy.
