1. Train your dogs from an early age
One of the most important commands to teach a dog is "Come to me!" Its fulfillment can only be achieved by regular training. You can start at home, in the room, and from the very first walks, do not forget to devote time to training each time. To make the learning process more effective, you can choose a healthy treat that you will treat to a friend after successfully completing the command.
2. Learn to navigate the terrain
Lost women sometimes return home by their own door. The likelihood of such a happy outcome is higher if you have previously introduced the dog to at least the area of your residence. Don't walk the same route. Instead, look into neighboring courtyards, parks and squares. The dog will be able to explore and remember the area around the house.
3. Get a GPS Tracker
Modern technologies help to save time and nerves, including for pet owners. A GPS tracker is especially necessary if you often walk in new places - in fields, forests and open spaces. The tracker will allow the owner to track the location of the pet at any time live through the application. Therefore, in the event of an unforeseen escape, it will be easy to find your dog.
Love for your pet is manifested not only in regular visits to the veterinarian and the correct selection of food, but also in taking care of its safety. Beeline offers its customers a smart solution for tracking the location of a pet. The kit includes the Geozon Pet Radar tracker for dogs with 4G support and a year of connection for the GPS tracker to work at high speed with the "For Smart Things" tariff plan. Due to the wide 4G coverage from Beeline in Moscow, the owner of the dog will be able to determine, if necessary, the location of the pet with high accuracy.
Thanks to the built-in GPS and GLONASS module, the owner will be able to watch the movement of his pet live through the Geozone Care mobile application. If the dog gets lost, the finder of the fugitive will be able to contact the owner using the SOS button. And the audio monitoring function will help you listen to what is happening with your pet, and, if necessary, come to the rescue. You can purchase the kit in Beeline's own offices in Moscow and the Moscow region or on the website beeline.ru.
Protect the dog4. Buy an address label
An easy and effective way to get your dog home is to hang a tag around your friend's neck. It can be a medallion or a capsule on a strong leather cord, a collar or a harness with an inscription. Indicate your phone number on it and never go out for a walk without an address plate. And do not forget to update your contact information in time if you have changed your phone number or address.
5. Choose the right ammunition
Even a leash does not guarantee that the dog will not run away. Hearing a loud sound or seeing a flock of cats, your pet may wriggle out of the collar. Therefore, it is important to take a responsible approach to the choice of this accessory. For active lovers of pushing back, you can try the anatomical harness. For heavy dogs and those who want to pull the leash out of the master's hands, safety leashes and re-leashes are suitable, which are attached to the belt or slung over the shoulder. And in order not to lose your dog in the dark, buy a collar with lighting or reflective elements.
6. Get used to loud sounds
Dogs are afraid of loud and harsh sounds. In this case, they panic and try to escape. Dog owners know that the worst time for walking is New Year's holidays with their ubiquitous fireworks. To avoid wasting winter holidays posting lost pet announcements, train him. No, you shouldn't blow up fireworks next to the dog. Better to play with it and treat it with treats near the sound source. Then gradually approach it. The dog next to you feels safe and thus gets used to the fact that loud noises are not always a cause for panic.
If you choose the wrong tactics when raising a dog, then there is a chance to make it worse. The right step is to seek professional advice. It will support the Petset mobile application from Beeline, which can
help owners of cats or dogs to have a great time with four-legged friends at home, on walks and travel. In the application, you can take useful courses on parenting, read information about your pet's health, and also get an online consultation from a dog handler and veterinarian. It is convenient to download the application in App Store and Google play.
