Getting Back to School Ready with Your Pet

As summer comes to an end, it's time to prepare for the Back-to-School season. While you're getting your kids ready, don't forget about your furry family members! Here are some tips to ensure a smooth transition for your pets.

Morning Walks:
Start the day with a brisk walk or game of fetch (ideally before the kids are up)! A well-exercised dog is more likely to remain calm while everyone gets ready.

Use the KLIMB for Calm Mornings:
The KLIMB provides a designated spot for your dog to settle during busy mornings. Teach your dog to relax on the KLIMB while you handle the morning hustle. This keeps them out of the way and helps them feel included in the routine.

Manage Your Active Dog or young puppy with a tether:
The Multi-function Leash is a game-changer for busy families. Use it as a tether to manage your active dog or young puppy in the house while you're preparing breakfast or getting dressed. You can even feed your dog or provide a safe chew toy while he is tethered. Your dog stays safe and you can still supervise your pup.  Once it's time to head out, switch to using the leash for a smooth walk to school.

Refresher on Good Manners:
Back to School season is a great time to provide your pup with a refresher on good manners. Reinforce good behaviors to ensure your dog is well-behaved during the busy season. This helps reduce stress and keeps your dog mentally stimulated.

Prepare for Fun Activities:
Just like kids, dogs can benefit from learning new things. Consider enrolling your pup in a fun class or starting a new activity. This keeps them engaged and ensures they're also going back to "school."

By incorporating these tips into your routine, you can make the Back to School transition smoother for both your kids and your pets. Embrace the season with the Balance Harness, KLIMB, and Multi-function Leash, and enjoy a stress-free start to the school year.
