Setting up a dog friendly space is important in any home with a pet. Your furry, four-legged family member has to feel comfortable, welcome and safe when you move to a new condo like Midtown Bay. This will also create a neater and better environment for both you and your dog.
Cozy Pet Area
Make a space for your dog to be cozy after they play with you or get their exercise. Invest in comfy beds, mats, and soft pillows so that they have a place to relax. For added comfort, get cooling mats for dogs that are susceptible to overheating, and orthopedic beds for dogs that have issues with their joints.
Interactive Toys
Toys are important for a dog’s development mentally and physically. However, not all toys have this benefit. The toys that have the most benefit are ones that stimulate the mind of the dog like puzzle toys that can be filled with treats. The interactive pet toy will dispense a treat when your pet solves a challenge to reward them. Get chew toys for their impulsive need to bite or chew on something.
Area for Food and Water
Food and water is an essential need for dogs, like us humans dogs also need to eat and drink so establish a space in the house for them to have their meals. Invest in bowls that are designed to prevent water from spilling, and their fur from getting in the water and food when they drink and eat. Opt for ergonomic bowls to minimize strain, or stainless steel material because they are durable.
Pet Gates
Invest in secure gates to prevent your dog from going up the stairs, minimizing the chances of injuries from happening. Find durable materials like reinforced wood or metal for long-term use. This can also reduce some anxiety and stress you face especially when your dog likes to explore. Gates can set boundaries so they know where not to go and stay safe inside your home.
