If my beagle Candy could drive, she
would be going to the market, road trips with other
canines, and hanging out at her favorite park.

She may even check out flick night
with all her rowdy friends. She has a shiny new Subaru to drive
around in thanks to Grant Webber and this cute Dog Tested, Dog Approved™ intro video, it got our family excited about putting our beagle in a Subaru. Road Trip!

Yes our girl is growing up. Of course she can’t really
drive but it would be wild if she could. The new Subaru
Dog Tested Dog Approved videos, are really a blast to watch like this one with the kids and the dog parents.

We are glad that they love dogs as much as we do. Even so
always secure your dog in either a crate or a secure, safety
belt when traveling. Plan out your trip ahead, because there
are some dog friendly restaurants. Yes you can plan bite to eat,
and dine out on the patio with your dog. If you want to stay overnight
book your stay with a pet friendly hotel. Check out the Subaru facebook
app for mapping out your dog walk as part of your trip.

Camping and Hiking with your Beagle Safety Tips

English: Dinas camping Tent near stream at Din...

Find out what the rules are at the
campground for your beagle. Take a
first aid kit with you always.

Make yourself familiar with the wildlife
in the area where you are camping and going
to hike.

In addition keep your dog on a leash. These
are new surroundings, and your beagle could get
lost. Make sure to bring a recent photo of your
dog in case he gets lost.

Pack extra medications, food and water
in case you have car trouble. Never leave
your beagle tied up at the campsite alone.

My friends had their beagles stolen doing this. Not to mention
other things can happen, like altercations with other dogs. So take
your beagle with you. Always take your cell phone with
you in case you need to call for help.

If your beagle is use to carrying a backpack, get one
and pack some water bottles, and collapsible water bowls
for you and your beagle. Its a good idea to wear reflective
clothing, and reflective gear for your beagle.

In addition GOPetFriendly suggests these
safety tips for hiking :

  • Avoid surprising animals by making noise and staying aware – especially on sections of trail with limited sight lines.
  • Don’t wear headphones. Instead, tune into your surroundings so you can hear approaching animals.
  • Don’t jog on the trails known for animal encounters – it stimulates a predator’s instinct to chase and attack.
  • Be sure someone knows where you’re going and when you plan to be back.

Have your beagle sleep in the tent with you. Mostly have some fun.

Barking: Tips on quieting them down

Posted on by

Our beagle use to bark alot when we would go out.
It was tough trying to get him to quiet down.
We tried a few things like a different routine
and a quiet command.

Nothing really helped us. I stumbled on this article on
the HumanSociety.com. The following are some good
techniques to stop barking.

Keep these tips in mind while training:

 

Don’t yell at your dog to be quiet—it just sounds like you’re barking along with him.
Keep your training sessions positive and upbeat.
Be consistent so you don’t confuse your dog. Everyone in your family must apply the training methods every time your dog barks inappropriately. You can’t let your dog get   away with inappropriate barking some times and not others.
Here are some common situations that make dogs bark with solutions specific to each:

 

Here are some common situations that make dogs bark with solutions specific to each:

 

Barking at passersby: Remove the motivation
Barking when confined: Ignore the barking
Barking at other dogs: Desensitization and counter conditioning
Barking at intruders at the door: Teach your dog the “quiet” command or ask your dog for an incompatible behavior
Other suggestions


Remove the motivation
Your dog gets some kind of reward when he barks. Otherwise, he wouldn’t do it. Figure out what he gets out of barking and remove it. Don’t give your dog the opportunity to continue the barking behavior.

Example: Barking at passersby
If he barks at people or animals passing by the living room window, manage his behavior by closing the curtains or putting your dog in another room. If he barks at passersby when he’s in the yard, bring him into the house to manage the situation. Never leave your dog outside unsupervised all day and night.
