TOP 30 Dog Names

 TOP 30 Dog Names While naming your male dog may not have the same lifetime significance as naming a baby boy, it’s a name you and your dog will be living with for a long time, so it deserves some thought. A good dog name can actually enhance his responsiveness and improve communication between you. How to Choose the Right Dog Name? Dogs have an easier time hearing hard consonants and long vowels, so a name like “Lucky” or “Benny” will be easier for him to distinguish from other sounds. Most dog training experts recommend a one or two-syllable name that you can say quickly. It’s also commonly recommended that you avoid names that sound like commands, for example, “Kit,” which sounds like “sit,” or “Bo,” which sounds like “no.” Pick a name you like to say (and that you won’t be embarrassed to yell across the dog park). You’ll be saying your puppy’s name a lot over time, as a quick attention grabber or just as part of their overall training and socialization. Ace

10 Signs Your Cat Loves You

10 Signs Your Cat Loves You We often expect our feline friends to show us love in the ways that we’re used to – and then feel a bit disappointed when they don’t always appreciate our cuddles. But don’t despair, your cat has her own way of showing you affection. Here’s how you can better understand her behaviour: 1. Grooming Many recent studies suggest that your furry friend actually sees you as a member of her feline family – that is, as an overlarge cat (who’s not particularly good at hunting). If she licks or grooms you, take it as a good sign that you’re a beloved part of her clan. 2. Biting Kittens show affection for one another through biting behaviour, and your cat might do the same to you. However, if those sharp little teeth start to hurt, don’t react badly as this could confuse her. Instead, direct her attention away with a fishing-rod toy or game . 3. Eye contact Cats interpret eye contact with a stranger – whether feline or human – as threatening. If she’s happy to look you

10 Ways Dogs Show Love

  10 Ways Dogs Show Love   Everyone knows–even those hostile cat owners–that dogs are man's (and woman's!) best friends. They make fiercely loyal, extremely intelligent and–duh!–adorable companions and most puppy parents consider their pooch a member of the family. But do our dogs love us back? The short answer: Yes. Dogs express their emotions in a variety of ways—ranging from super subtle to totally obvious—so, sometimes, it can be tough to tell what's a positive expression or a negative expression. These 10 signs of puppy love can help you determine if you and your pupper are truly bonded.   1.    Holding Eye Contact Maintaining eye contact isn't just a useful tool while you're training your dog–it can help you create a deep bond, too. In fact, when your dog looks at you, its brain releases oxytocin. Known as the "love hormone," oxytocin is the same hormone mothers' brains release when they're first bonding with their babies.   The key is to mai
