Pet Fluff with C8y Mara

Episode 08: This Episode I will discuss pubescent dogs and how there are similarities with a teenager! I will talk about defiance, misbehavior and hearty appetites! In Q&A I will answer the question: What is the proper way to clean my dog's ears? The Feature Pet of the Episode is Mogli a Great Pyrenees, and I have a special message reflecting on the protests, BLM, police brutality, White Privilege and seeking justice.
Five Steps to Understanding Your Pubescent Puppy:
1. Bond during their puberty time.
2. By 8 months, teething has stopped. Know what kind of chewer your puppy is.
3. Teen pups have different sleep schedules.
4. Teen pups are more interested in walks.
5. Your puppy's socialization skills are crucial during this time. Cultivate them.

Q&A:
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. Let your dog shake his head. Clean out remaining solution and dirt gently with a cotton ball or gauze.

Q&A:
Why do Dogs Circle Before They Handle "Business"? 3 Theories:
1. The wolf Ancestor, circled to pat down the grass making it easier to release and make less of a mess.
2. They leave behind their pheromones for other dogs.
3. They align themselves to the magnetic fields of the North-South directional pull.
