I would love to, someday, have both a cat and a dog, since I love both cats and dogs. Assume that I will be single and alone at home, so there’s no one else to take care of them, just me. How easy / difficult will it be to train both ? Note that I want to get them both as lil babies. Also, which one should I get first ? I’m guessing I shouldn’t get both at the same time, otherwise it’ll be like having two newborn babies.
having a dog is a 24hr job. you need to establish the leadership role and create rules, boundaries, and limitations. make sure you walk it at least a hour a day with the dog beside you or behind you. train it. and give exercise first then discipline then affection and you only give your dog affection when it is calm and submissive. if you don’t do the above things you WILL have a dog that has behavior issues, either they will destroy things or attack people and/or animals, and if you aren’t willing to do the above things then you shouldn’t have a dog, because the above mention thing you aren’t ready to have a dog to begin with.
oh cats are a breeze to teach them to use a litter box.
