Best Ways to Let Your Family Dog Feel Like Family

This post is sponsored by Blue Buffalo®, but all opinions are my own.

Family dogs are indeed apart of the family.

I grew up with a fond love of all animals, especially our family dog. Rhett was our golden retriever that not only made life fun, but also more lovable. I knew that I would definitely have a family dog from the beginning, and here we are! Our golden retriever doodle Beaux is not only our dog, but he is a member of our family. How are we making Beaux feel like he belongs among his brother and sisters? By showing him all the love and affection he deserves!

Toss and catch is always fun!

Do your kids love to play? I know mine sure do love a good game, especially when it involves the entire family. There is no wonder our furry family members feel the same way about a good game of toss and catch. Finding the time to play with your family dog is not only keeping him active, but also gives way to bonding with the entire family. No one likes to sit out on the bench during a game if they don’t have too. Let your dog join in on the family fun!

A good back scratch and bath.

Like your human family members, your dog loves the affection when it comes to touch. A hug and a good back scratch always hits the spot when it comes to Beaux. You know you hit the right spot when one of those back legs gets to jumping! Bath time for your family dog is also a must. You wouldn’t want one of your kids running around for over two weeks without a bath, would you? My guess would be no. Your dog should be brushed at least once a week and bathed at least once every two weeks. Make the dog’s bath time a family event! Have the kids help get your dog all soapy and lathered up. Believe me, lots of laughs are to be had once the water hits your dog and he starts shaking! Just make sure to have lots of extra towels on hand.

A nutritional diet to keep your dog healthy.

I can’t exaggerate enough on the importance of nutrition when it comes to your family dog. As with any member of your family, you want to make sure your dog is getting exactly what he needs to feel his best. This is why Blue Buffalo® products are on the menu for Beaux. No better way to keep Beaux ‘wild’ and free with the rest of the family than with BLUE Wilderness™!

Blue Buffalo® premium pet food is not only a high-quality food, but it is a high-protein food.

The protein-rich is what satisfies their naturally ‘wild’ side bringing them back to nature.

I don’t have to worry about any of the ingredients in BLUE Wilderness™ premium pet food. I know what I am buying, and Beaux will be eating a meat-rich meal that is grain-free.
