    Being strict with your pet doesn’t mean being harsh—it means setting clear boundaries and maintaining consistency. Pets thrive on routine and positive reinforcement, so firm yet loving guidance helps them feel secure. Rewarding good behavior and correcting missteps gently fosters trust and discipline. Striking a balance between structure and affection ensures a well-behaved pet while strengthening your bond. Do you find consistency challenging in pet training?

    Training my pup has been a wild ride wasn’t sure if I should be strict or just let him do his thing. Ended up finding a good balance, but keeping him entertained was another struggle. Decided to try BarkBox for some new toys and treats, but had questions about the subscription. Hit up barkbox customer service, and they were super helpful explained everything clearly, no pressure. First box arrived, and my dog went nuts for it. Honestly, best decision ever, training’s been way easier with new rewards. BarkBox and their support seriously delivered!

    It is your pet.
    It depends on you, because pet in unable to make conversation with you.

    You may be strict…because your pet is submissive to you.

    I would like to hear if pet can tell me about its feeling of being your pet.

    There is a very slight difference being strict and being disciplined. You shouldn’t be shouting or yelling at your pet but you must teach the pet basic disciplinary behaviour. There will be times when there will necessities to stop your pet from doing certain things that can either harm you or something else. Overall, I think there’s no meaning in having a pet if you are being angry or strict. Love your pet and keep them well mannered.

Pet Care

You hear the meow-meow and the bow-wow and you understand that they are feeling something within. They could be hungry or they just want to be snuggled. Like humans, animals also have their basic needs may it be domesticated or wild animals. Lucky for those animals that are pets at home where their needs are already met. Having pets is having another responsibility and that's pet care. Proper food and dieting, proper hygiene, regular health check; and a good place to live be all that you need to provide them. Wow, that sounds like it's better to be a pet.
