A Guia Ideal Para Seu Shihtzu
Muitas pessoas já me perguntaram qual a guia certa para usar com seu shihtzu no passeio...
Existem as peitorais, (aquelas que envolvem o peito do cachorro), as guias de pescoço normal, e tb tem uma que envolve as perninhas com o peito , (essas acima são as mais comuns em petshops), devem ter mais, mas que eu lembro são essas.... Nenhuma delas é boa o bastante, elas só incentivam ao seu cão a puxar e conduzir o passeio, e além de tudo podem até prejudicar.
Por exemplo a peitoral, ela força o cachorro a puxar o dono, não tem como , a forma dela é pra puxar , assim como os cães de trenó, é peitoral. O cão nunca vai obededer, ou seja andar ao seu lado, ela " deforma " e isso para um filhote como para um adulto pode ser prejudicial.
A de pescoço, se o cão puxa, enforca.... dificil tb.
As que prendem as patas com o peito, o mesmo problema da peitoral.
E a melhor opção, é a guia de exposição... simples e muito útil, na minha opinião: A melhor.
Eu tb usava a peitoral no começo, mas depois optei pela guia de exposição , assim qdo comecei a entrar em pistas com as minhas cachorras.
Dpois que eu conheci a guia de exposição, nunca mais larguei, tenho várias e de várias cores,e de vários tecidos é apenas uma corda com um feche, vc prende antes do pescoço do cão, no ossinho do maxilar e fecha... não enforca e o cão anda sempre com a cabeça erguida, anda sempre ao seu lado, não tem como ele ficar procurando por algo... sempre matenha a guia levantada , claro que se o seu cão quiser parar para fazer as necessidades, vc deixa um pouco solta a guia na sua mão e pronto, depois mantenha a posição. Pq além de tudo isso o cão mantem a postura correta ao andar.
No começo o seu cão vai achar ruim, vai pular, esperniar ( alguns não ), mas incomoda sim até aprender a andar nela. Mas eu sempre falo, tem que insistir até o cérebro do cão "entender" que ele tem que se acalmar e andar na guia , que é uma coisa boa. O legal é distrair ele com outra coisa, passear em um lugar diferente, levar petiscos, etc...
Essas guias como eu falei tem de várias cores, modelos e tecidos.
Tem modelos que são mais finos, outras mais largas, outras largas só onde pega no pescoço e os tecidos tem de pano, couro, e cetim.
Essas guias não tem em petshops, vc compra pela internet em alguns sites , elas variam de 15,00 a 50,00 mais ou menos.
Alguns sites que vendem:
E nas próprias exposições tb vendem.
Espero que tenham gostado do post!

No Fluff Zone
Dogs love to play with their toys, not the stuffing inside, so SPOT Pet Products showed their stuff by getting rid of the stuff(ing) to create unique and easily identifiable pet toys called Skinneeez. Reflecting the recent trend toward more floppy pet toys, Skinneeez have a more realistic appearance that is more attractive to dogs, and brings out the hunter in domesticated companions.
Skinneeez toys are easy to distinguish from other pet toys on the market because of the way they look – they appear to be soft-sculpture toys that have not yet been filled with polyester fiberfill. But that is by design – Skinneeez toys are flat, easy to grab, hold and carry for any dog or cat, and despite their super-soft fur-like fabric exterior, Skinneeez are amazingly durable and last longer than regular plush dog toys, because of the lack of stuffing. Realistically made to look like favorite backyard critters and have the mouthfeel of real prey, Skinneeez allow dogs to indulge their inner hunters, an instinct that never goes away, regardless of how domesticated they are, reminding them of a day in the field and why fetch games are so much fun.
Skinneeez reflect on the recent trend in pet toys towards floppy toys, but Skinneeez takes this trend a step further and leaves out all the stuffing, creating a toy that flops even more than some toys designed to be floppy with more room inside for squeakers in the head and tail. The lack of stuffing also means that there won’t be any bits of fluff for the owner to pick up. Also, unlike most fiberfill stuffed toys, Skinneeez are washable, and have securely sewn-on eyes, ears and tails for added safety.
Skinneeez for dogs come in two sizes – regular and mini – and several different varieties, including Mallard Duck, Chicken, Jungle Cat, Pink Flamingo, Ostrich, Beaver and Flying Squirrel.
The SPOT brand of pet products is a division of Ethical Pet Products, a Bloomfield, New Jersey company dedicated to serving pets and pet lovers since 1952. SPOT’s product line includes innovative dog and cat products, such as toys, dishes, waste management products, apparel and other dog and cat accessories. SPOT is committed to providing its customers with the best value and service in the pet industry, while keeping quality, safety, honesty and humanity in mind. SPOT pet products are available at retailers nationwide.
