Do you have a leash reactive Dog?

Do you have a dog that is reactive to other dogs during walks (growling, barking, or lunging)? Many owners struggle with this issue and need some immediate tools. The reflective dog training leash is an excellent tool for you and your dog.

Getting a reflective dog training leash. 

When you have a dog, one of the most critical steps you can take is to ensure that it’s properly trained. Walking with your dog can be pleasant or stressful. That is all depending on you and your dog.

A well-trained dog is less aggressive, better behaved, and more enjoyable when you go with it for a walk. Your dog can be excellent in the dog park or go for a walk with you without a leash. Soon as you put the leash on your dog, his behaviour will change.

The first step to controlling leash reactivity is to manage your dog proactively.

If you missed the training at an early age of your dog, then you should consider training your dog now, as it is never too late in training. But the younger the dog, the easier the training will be.
Dog Training is essential. You must have the right tools to get your dog to behave correctly. A reflective dog training leash comes in very handy.

What you need when going for a walk with a leash-reactive dog.

Halloween Black Cats. Horror Stories or Myth?

Woman Finds a Burnt, Cut-Up Black Cat Inside a Bag on Halloween.

Halloween is near, and we hear lots of stories or Myths about Halloween Black Cats.

Read this story from Peta.org. 

A Sacramento, California, woman looked out her window to see three teens messing around with a bag. Inside, she reportedly found a mutilated, sickly-looking black cat. She rushed the suffering animal to the vet, but the injuries were too severe, and the cat had to be euthanized.

( original story CBS news Sacramento) 

What is the reason why black cats are associated with Halloween?

Do you remember the witch and the black cat on her shoulders? That picture is a popular Decoration on Halloween. The Black cats are often a Halloween Symbol. Where it comes from and what is the story behind it is an interesting myth.
In Europe, black cats are still considered bringers of good and bad luck.
Black cats are considered bad luck in Spain, Italy, France, and the eastern countries. They believe that going near them, especially on Halloween, you will be cursed with bad luck.

Black Cats are a symbol of good luck.

In Japan, Black Cats are considered to bring good luck. In  Egypt, black cats were worshipped, and in the British Islands, black cats are considered good luck for the household that owns the black cat. 
 
Even black cats have been worshipped in ancient Egypt; the mythological foothold is worldwide. But their original connection with Halloween started around 2000 years ago among the Celtic Tribes based around Ireland. 

Halloween Black Cats. The Myth of the Truth. 

Many shelters close adoption for black cats and black dogs around Halloween time. You never know what can happen to black cats and dogs on Halloween.

That said, in some Asian countries, lots of black dogs and cats are not adopted because of the belief they are evil and are a bad omen. But also being suspected of being the familiars of witches or shape-shifting witches themselves.

Witches Black Cats and Sorcery. 

When did black Cats become a bringer of bad luck in the United States? 

It all came with the Pilgrims in the Plymouth Colony.  Puritan Pilgrims did not trust anything and anyone associated with sorcery and witches, including the black cats.  

The Pilgrims actively persecuted black cats.

Burning black cats on Shrove Tuesday became a practice to protect the home from fire.

Anti Witch zeal had subsided in the Colonies. Black cats had indeed been thoroughly cemented in the legend alongside the witches. 

 Decorators use them as a Halloween symbol alongside witches and independently to add a frightful, unnerving ambience to their front steps, their green eyes spooking trick-or-treaters.

Halloween black cats myth or truth

Halloween Black Cats. The Holiday Spirit.

If you are in the Holiday Spirit, consider adopting a black cat from an animal shelter or rescue service.

Due to superstition, black cats are less likely to be adopted from a shelter or service. By adopting a black cat, you rescue an animal who may not find a loving home and a loving owner. 

Be aware that some shelters will not accept adopting black cats before Halloween. The reason is some owners have been known to use the black cats as “living decorations” before abandoning them. It sounds so cruel, and if you are a cat lover, your heart is bleeding hearing this.  

My advice to you…

If you own a black Cat, keep your Cat inside on Halloween.

When you have a black cat, or a black dog, people, do stupid things to those animals during Halloween.

I heard and read endless stories about the poor cats and dogs who got mistreated by teens for fun or just people who believe in these superstitions. Many people say it is a myth, but according to Peta.org, it is not.

If the eyes of your cat could speak, you would be surprised what they have to say.

Every Cat, have a different eye colour if you look closely.

In a way, humans and dogs use eyebrows to communicate, whereas a cat is using their eyes. 

Call a dog’s name, and his facial expression, together with the eyebrows, go up and down.
