Q&A:
Why does my dog whine all the time, when they are okay?:
Reasons Why:
1. Physical needs- Rule out any medical injuries or illness
2. Mental needs- Anxiety and stress or outdoor distractions can cause whining
3. Attention and Boredom needs-frustration from lack of exercise,attention and activity
How To Minimize Whining:
1. Ignore the Whining- no eye contact, turn your back, or remove yourself from the space.
2. Don't scold- to a dog, any attention is better than no attention
3. When giving attention, have your dog sit first- resets the focus elsewhere
4. Reward calm behavior- reinforce good behavior, your dog will associate with it positively
5. Plan ahead for prevention- have toys, chew treats, puzzles etc. available for distraction.
MAKE SURE YOUR DOG IS PROPERLY EXERCISED!!!

3. Teen pups have different sleep schedules.
4. Teen pups are more interested in walks.

How to Clean Your Dog's Ears:
1. Assemble your supplies and your dog. (Do it in a easy clean up space. Use a towel!)
2. Squeeze ear-cleaning solution to fill your dog’s ear canal and massage gently at the base of the ear for about 30 seconds

3. Give gecko a warm bath, once skin is soft, gently help peel off skin
4. Leave skin in tank and provide extra calcium such as Repti-cal in the tank.

6. Reach out to your exotic vet if all else fails, and check to see if there isn't an underlying issue.
