13.06.2024 18:57
When you walk your dog, do you constantly “sit” on your smartphone?
Your behavior is quite understandable: you want to save time.
However, please postpone checking your messages and news until later.
And try not to take your mobile phone out of your pocket at all while you are walking your four-legged friend.
The thing is that the habit of holding a gadget in one hand and a leash in the other is very dangerous. For several reasons.
The dog doesn't have time to "do its business"
A person who is engrossed in internet surfing will continue walking, “dragging” the dog behind him.
In such a situation, the dog will not have time to study the smells and relieve itself. There is nothing good about this.
It may interfere with pedestrians
A dog can cross to the other side of the sidewalk, creating an obstacle for pedestrians in the form of a long leash.
A dog may pick up something "wrong"
An owner who can’t tear himself away from his smartphone is unlikely to have time to tell his animal: “Ugh!”
Walking turns into torture
Has walking your dog become a boring procedure for you?
Perhaps it was the use of the phone that made the walk what it was.
Put your mobile phone in your pocket, watch your pet, enjoy the fresh air, pay attention to the beauty of nature. And then you will understand that walking a dog is cool!
