One very common concern I hear from pet parents is:
“My dog is already one or two years old, but he still doesn’t behave like a mature adult. We are unable to manage him anymore, so we are thinking of giving him up for adoption.” But before making that decision, ask yourself one simple question:
Was a dog naturally designed to live according to human rules?
Balanced Diet for Dogs as per their Size
A Chihuahua and a Great Dane are both dogs—but their nutritional requirements are certainly not the same. Size affects a dog’s total calorie requirement, calorie requirement per kilogram of body weight, growth rate, digestive capacity and, especially during puppyhood, bone and joint development.
The Dogfather wasn’t born because we wanted to open a pet hostel. Neither I nor my husband, Anurag, ever planned to open a pet hostel. I had a well-paying corporate career, and Anurag was already running his own business.
Choosing between a male and female dog isn’t about which one is better—it’s about understanding their natural instincts, personality, and your lifestyle. With the right training, love, and consistency, both can become incredible lifelong companions.
When people think of Pomeranians, they often picture a small, fluffy dog that looks like a living teddy bear. But behind that adorable face is a breed full of confidence, intelligence, loyalty, and attitude.
When humans feel stressed, tired, or mentally exhausted, we plan vacations, road trips, spa days, or weekends away. But have you ever thought that dogs also live in routines, emotions, excitement, and boredom — just like us?
The Siberian Husky originates from the harsh, freezing regions of Siberia, where it was bred by the Chukchi tribe for pulling sleds across long distances. These dogs were not just workers but also companions, living closely with humans and developing a strong sense of social bonding and teamwork.
Separation anxiety is when a dog feels extreme stress or panic when they are left alone or separated from their primary human.
Indie dogs, also known as “Desi Dogs”, are not just “strays” — they are one of the most intelligent, resilient, and naturally evolved dog breeds in India. They are born and raised in real-world conditions.
Leaving your dog at a hostel is never just a transaction — it’s an emotional decision. You are not dropping off luggage. You are trusting someone with your child.
