دددددددددددددددددددDogs and Cats Living Togetherددددددددددددددددددددددددددددد
Dogs and cats are supposedly life-long enemies. Hence the phrase, "fighting like cats and dogs." Having always owned both cats and dogs, I find the phrase and the premise to be far more inaccurate than accurate. Of course, we all know that there are those dogs that will simply chase every cat they see and those cats that will never tolerate a dog. However, it has been my experience that handled correctly, the vast majority of dogs and cats can live together. They may not learn to love each other, but they certainly can learn to tolerate each other's presence. Dogs and cats that are raised with each other typically do fine their entire lives. They may actually accept an animal of another species more easily than one of their own, in that there are fewer fights over dominance and territory.
There are some dogs that should not be kept with cats. Dogs with a strong hunting heritage may always view cats as prey and may never be able to be trusted with any small animals. In addition to hunting dogs, terriers such as Jack Russells and Pitbulls are often poor companions for cats. These dogs have an incredibly strong predatory instinct; they chase and attack moving objects without thinking about whom or what the object may be. Cats and other small pets are just too much of a temptation for these dogs.
Other dogs respond less to the animal than the situation and will leave alone a cat that sits still, but chase and attack one that moves. This is especially true of dogs that are kept outside. There is something about being out of the house that really pushes the hunting instinct into overdrive and will often result in even the most docile indoor dog attempting to chase cats once outside. So, one would not want to make the assumption that a cat and dog who tolerate each other indoors will do the same outside. The dog may decide to attack the cat. Finally, dogs that have a history of attacking cats are likely to do so again and should not be trusted with cats. If you are planning on rescuing a previously-owned dog, it is a good idea to get a history of the dog's attitudes and behaviors around cats before bringing it into a house with cats. Many shelters will allow you to 'test' the dog by introducing it to a cat before completing the adoption.
Most cats, if they have had positive experiences with dogs, will tolerate canines in the house. Those that will not typically have had some prior negative interaction that is firmly embedded in their memories. Because most cats, even those that hate dogs, do not attack without provocation, these cats may be able to live with a dog. However, they probably will never bond with the dog, will avoid the dog at all costs, and will be pretty miserable. It is kinder to leave these cats in a feline-only household. Again, it is often possible to find out the history of a cat before adopting it or to test the cat's reactions to dogs in an adoption situation.
So which cats and dogs can get along? The answer is just about all of the rest of them. In the best of circumstances, cats and dogs really become friends, playing and sleeping together. In other situations, cats and dogs may never be overly friendly, but they can learn to tolerate and behave themselves with other members of the family, including those of other species. As long as you are willing to work out a positive introduction and protect the animals from physical harm, these species usually get along. The process may take up to six or eight weeks, or even longer, but can be successfully accomplished.
If you are thinking of bringing a cat into a dog household, or vice-versa, there are steps that you can take to ensure the success of the relationship. First, because a dog can kill a cat, safety is your first concern. The dog needs to be able to be kept separated from the cat. This can be accomplished with a crate or a separate room. The dog should have a refresher obedience course, so that it will sit, stay, and come to you when told, and leave the cat alone if ordered to. The dog needs to remember that the people, not the dog, rule the house. This way you can 'explain' to the dog, if necessary, that the cat is yours and needs to be treated with respect. In addition, the cat needs to have a safe haven. This means that the cat's food and litter boxes need to be inaccessible to the dog and that the cat has places to run and hide. For example, leave a few bookcase shelves empty so the cat can climb to them, put a cat door into a closed bedroom, or use baby gates to separate the dog from the cat's own room.
I keep my cats' litter boxes, toys, scratching posts, water, and food in an extra bedroom. I use a baby gate to keep the dogs out of the room. I have cut a small cat-size opening into the closed mesh of the gate so that the cats can dash through it if necessary and not have to leap the gate. My dogs respect the gate, but if you have dogs that leap over it, you may need to cut the cat door into the room door or install a screen door with an opening large enough for the cats.
The initial meeting and first few weeks are critical times to set the tone for the future, so it is important to make all introductions go as smoothly as possible. The key is to remember that these animals will be together for a lifetime; there is no reason to rush their meetings. If bringing a cat into the house, provide the cat with its own bedroom for the first few weeks or longer. The litter box and food should be placed in this room. The dog in the house can smell the cat under the door but has no real need to meet the new member of the family until the cat is comfortable and bored with its personal space. If this is a young kitten, they may end up living in this room for several more weeks. Once the cat is doing well in its own room, you can let the cat explore the house, undisturbed by the dog. You can actually put the dog in the cat's room while the cat is out so that the dog really gets to experience the cat's scent without bothering the cat. You can also get the pets used to each other's scents by swapping toys, towels, or other items between them.
The initial face-to-face meeting should be done after the new cat is familiar with the entire house. Make sure that the dog is on a leash and under control. Have another person near the cat to provide help if needed. Keep the meeting short and positive. Praise the dog for being wonderful around the cat. Use food rewards if appropriate and make sure that the dog understands that good thing happen when the cat is present. After a few, short positive meetings, it is time to let the cat explore for longer periods, with the dog present and on the leash. If this step proceeds calmly, let the dog off the leash and watch the interactions. Make sure you are always there to stop any problems before they can accelerate. Do not allow the dog to be aggressive in any way to the cat, and lavishly praise the dog for good behavior. Be certain that the cat has access to hiding places. If aggression occurs at any stage of the introductions, return to the previous stage and slow down. Even if all looks great, do not leave the cat alone with the dog until you are truly positive that everything is running smoothly. This means that if they cannot be supervised, the cat should be left in its bedroom or the dog kept crated.
Bringing a dog into a cat household is relatively easy. The dog should be kept on a leash for the initial introductions and never left unsupervised. Make sure that all animals are praised for their wonderful behavior when they are together. As previously discussed, the dog can be crated or the cat left in a bedroom when they cannot be watched. Since the cat is already familiar with its territory and the dog is a newcomer, the dynamics of the relationship often turn in the cat's favor, making the transition relatively easy.
Puppies and kittens do present unique challenges. Kittens must be protected from dogs at all times simply because any dog is big enough to badly hurt or kill a young kitten. A kitten must always be closely supervised even around the best behaved of dogs. Provide the kitten with appropriate toys of its own. Do not let the kitten 'play attack' the dog or chase it. This can rapidly escalate into a dangerous situation. For the same reason, do not let the dog 'play' with the kitten. The kitten must be kept in a safe room when an adult is not home. My kittens stayed in their own room when I was not at home and at bedtime until they were approximately six months old.
Rambunctious puppies may also be a problem. Without meaning to, an energetic puppy can harm a kitten or even an adult cat. It is up to you to make sure that their interactions are monitored so that no one gets hurt. It is also really important to exercise and play with the puppy routinely. Make sure the puppy has its own toys and uses them. A tired puppy is less likely to bother the cat and less likely to be a behavior problem in the house.
It takes work, patience, and time to introduce cats and dogs to each other. However, the positive outcome is well worth the work. My cats and dogs play, eat, relax, and sleep together. I get tremendous pleasure watching them. You will be pleasantly surprised how much positive energy is brought into your home by having both cats and dogs living there.

This is true love 💕💕💕
Five Things To Remember When Introducing Your New Dog to Your Cat
1. Give your cat her own space
Whether your cat has spent six months or six years in your home, she has come to identify it as her home. Bringing a dog into her space can be quite upsetting. Help reduce the stress for her by maintaining an area that is clearly her own. Give your cat a place to escape to free from canine intrusions. Eventually, once the dog and cat have gotten to know each other (on their own terms), this won't be necessary. In the beginning, however, it is important that your cat have a place where she can feel at ease and relaxed for her long naps and cleaning sessions!
2. Place the cat food and water in a place your dog can't reach
What might take your cat the better part of the day to eat can take just seconds for your dog to devour? Make sure the cat's food and water are in a spot that is easily reached by your cat but not accessible to your dog. This will not only keep the food from being eaten by the dog but will give your cat a safe place to eat, somewhere where she doesn't have to be on alert while eating. If she doesn't feel safe, she may not eat. You will probably find over time that your cat will start to drink out of your dog's water bowl; perhaps this is her way of reminding your dog who is boss!
3. Keep your cat's nails clipped
If your dog comes too close to your cat she will let him know by doing a kitty growl or hissing and accompanying that with a swipe at his face with her paw. If her nails are sharp that could result in her cutting his face or scratching an eye. This will certainly teach him not to mess with her, but it could be quite painful and even cause some real damage that could require a visit to the vet. It's inevitable that your cat will swipe at your dog to assert her household dominance, so reduce the likelihood of a cut and keep those nails trimmed.
4. Keep the kitty litter out of your dog's reach
Dogs love kitty litter, especially used kitty litter! Some refer to the treasures the dog finds in the kitty litter as "Kitty Roca". If you use a clumping kitty litter and your dog ingests too much of it, it could lead to gastrointestinal blockage. Save yourself the hassle of discovering that your dog loves "Kitty Roca" and make sure the kitty litter is easy to get to for your cat but out of reach from your dog.
5. Be patient
It's unlikely that your dog and cat will become friends overnight. However, over time you should see their behavior towards each other change for the better provided you do not force it. Some cats take longer to adjust than others. Your cat will probably develop a fairly intense fascination with your dog, always wanting to know where he is and what he is doing. This is partly due to fear and want to make sure the dog isn't coming near her and partly due to curiosity. Soon their interactions will become more amicable as the dog learns he can't mess with the cat and the cat sees that the dog isn't trying to hurt her (provided that he isn't!). Be patient and in time you may even see them snuggling on the dog bed!

Why is he so obsessed with me?!
Can Cats and Dogs Get Along?
There comes a time in (almost) every animal-loving household when a cat meets a dog. Or is it dog meets cat? Cats and dogs are so often portrayed as mortal enemies, but in reality, they can also be the best of friends!
There are a few factors that will go into whether your household is one of harmony or one of frenzied chasing, hissing, scratching, and perhaps a bloody nose or two.
I grew up with cats and dogs. We had a kitten that would "nurse" on our toy poodle (not really!) and later on a Sheltie named Bonny who got along with all cats so well we even named a kitten Clyde.
Currently, we have a young Shetland Sheepdog who will mercilessly chase and torment the cats if left to her own devices. So, I have learned that all animals and all households are different.
Be The Cat
Here is a peek into the psyche of a cat being introduced to a dog: "Oh, bother. What is that thing? It is looking straight at me. Why is it so intent on me? Is it going to attack me? This can't be good! Maybe if I ignore it, it will go away."
The Dogs Perspective
The dog, of course, comes from a whole different world! He is thinking, "Oh boy, oh boy, a friend! Yipee, let's play chase together! Let me smell you! You can smell me! Betcha can't catch me! A friend, a friend!"
So, how well cats and dogs can get along has a lot to do with how well the dog can contain himself. If he's uninterested in the cat, probably nothing more will come of it. If he must chase, and doesn't learn his lesson when he gets cuffed on the nose, you'll want to intervene.
The last thing you want is for either pet to become depressed or feel they've lost your affections. If your cat can't come to you for pets and snuggles because that dog is always blocking the way, she will quickly become stressed. The same is true if she no longer has run of the house if she can't get to her litter box, food, or favorite sleeping spot.
This could show up in the form of cat aggression, litter box issues, or a host of other common cat behavior problems. So what to do? Some training is in order. You can't train a cat to let a dog sniff her, paw her, or bark at her. But, you can train a dog to be more polite.
For puppies and young energetic dogs, this may simply mean keeping them separated for a while. After all, your pup is learning the ropes when it comes to many things. And just like very young human children, he simply doesn't possess self-control yet.
He does have a strong desire to please you, though. So use it to your advantage and praise him whenever he can let the catwalk by without trying to pounce on her.
Also, never allow chasing. The dog should be firmly reminded that this is undesirable. Use your serious voice, calmly distract him by his name, and firmly say "No." Then remove him from the chase. He may need to be separated for a bit.
Older cats and dogs can be slowly introduced and usually coexist without much fuss. Some cats are quiet easy-going. And some dogs just don't care about cats. If this is the case, you're all set! Otherwise, a gentle introduction and the assurance that each pet has its safe place will help. Who knows, maybe they'll be Best Buds down the road!

+++++Caring For Kittens After the Mother Cat Has Given Birth++++++
It is important for the mother cat after birth to bond with the new babies before they can be taken away from her because this helps them to be familiar with other felines.
This period should last at least 7 weeks, preferably 8 weeks from the moment they are born.
It is also good if they socialize with other cats up to the first 47 weeks of their life otherwise they may have problems with interactions with other pets.
If you are selecting a baby to care for, you should go for one which seems confident and not one that tries to squirm away when you pick it up.
The best kitties are those with an inquisitive nature rather than those that jump at their own shadow.
You can test this nature out by throwing a set of keys near them.
If they run away but still come back to investigate the noise then they are likely to be confident pets.
The best thing you should do to care for your kitty after the mum cat has given birth is to make the home safe for them.
You should make sure all the cleaning products in your kitchen are kept away and cannot be accessed by them.
You should also put away any knives and sharp kitchen utensils for obvious reasons.
You should also cut up lemons and put them in your bins because they like to rummage into things however hate the smell of fresh lemons.
Finally, you should keep all dangerous liquids away from them and make sure they cannot knock things over when may be a potential hazard.
Attention all frustrated cat owners imagine having the perfect pussycat.
If you know what to do you can.
Issues such as clawing, bad personality, and relieving themselves where they want would be a thing of the past with our guide.
There are also hundreds of tips to make sure things go smoothly.
Remember understanding is the key to a happy relationship.

+++4 Suggestions for Golden Retrievers Puppies Adoption
If you've decided that golden retriever pups adoption is for you then great! Hopefully, you've given us a great deal of thought and come to this conclusion by doing your research and understand what you're getting yourself into. That's not to say that adopting a puppy is something that you should be afraid of, but it is something that requires some forethought. The reason that I say this is simple. Last year alone in North America between three and 4 million dogs were put down because potential owners got in over their heads.
These people simply consider the dog disposable and either took them to a shelter or simply let them go out on the street. This is no way to treat a family member. To avoid this situation and to make sure that you understand what you're dealing with theme give you a few tips about Golden retrievers.
There are some things that these dogs are and there are some things that these dogs are not. But if you are considering Golden retriever puppies adoption chances are that you have also considered your lifestyle and this is one of the reasons that you've made this choice.
Let me first cover what golden retrievers are not. They are not a dog that you want to buy for security. They simply are not a watchdog. They have a lot of great qualities but this is one of them. If this is your main concern then you should look at a different breed perhaps a German Shepherd or a different type of lab. But certainly not a golden retriever. A golden retriever will gladly welcome an intruder or burglar perhaps give them a quick sniff and then possibly even show them your stuff.
Let's cover what goldens require. The number one thing the golden retrievers with the choir in spades is exercise. Now, this is true for most dogs however goldens are especially energetic and active in this respect. They are grouped by the AKC into the sporting type of dog. This means that they like to run their like to hunt they like to swim and they like to generally be active.
If this describes your lifestyle, and you are the type of person that likes to jog or run or bicycle and taking the dog with you as part of the plan then this will be an excellent match. If however, you live in an apartment and perhaps don't get out very much or lead a sedentary lifestyle then this may not be the best choice. Your dog will become frustrated and bored and likewise, you will start to dislike her dog. And we all know how that ends up.
Secondly, this is a very smart dog. And what I mean by that is they have a higher than average mental capacity for the canine. You may be asking yourself how does this affect me? What's important because if you don't exercise the active mind or give your dog things to keep them mentally agile then he will entertain himself. And that generally means that he's going to target your stuff. Your socks your couch your favorite chair and things of this nature will become toys for him or her.
Fortunately, this is an easy one to solve. You simply have to have some time to spend with your dog in terms of perhaps hiding a treat under a bucket or hiding some piña butter inside a toy or things of this nature. If you take a walk through pet smart you will find all kinds of different toys that are designed to engage the active mind.
That leads me to the next point. Socialization. This is not a dog that wants to spend a lot of time in his own company. He wants to be around you and around her family members as much as possible. He is very much a social pack animal and therefore wants to be around other pack animals. Now it doesn't have to be just people they can also be other dogs Golden retriever will generally get along very well with other dogs. However, this is a dog that wants to be around people more than anything else. He also has a need to please people he is very much a human-centric dog.
Chewing-a you want to make sure that you have money set aside to buy toys that he or she can chew. If you're a hunter then taking them out hunting is also a good way to engage this reflects, but odds are you can't do that every day. To that point, it's interesting to note that the Golden retriever was originally conceived as a hunting dog and a dog that would retrieve the game. So it stands to reason then, that they like to hold things in their mouth. And that's where this comes from.
If you cover these four points and these four points seem to fit well with the way you live, then Golden retriever puppies adoption is probably the right choice for you. If you have a family of people around most of the time and you do a lot of things outdoors in which you can include your dog then this is the right choice. However, if some of these things don't fit well with your thinking or with your way of life and perhaps look at or at a different dog.

This little donkey needs tenderness
The Donkey
The donkey, usually known as the ass, is a creature often ridiculed for being dumb or stupid. It is common to label a person a donkey due to his stupidity. The word donkey is now synonymous with all terms associated with unintelligence.
The donkey is actually mistaken for being stupid because you'll have to give it a kick before it would move. After a while, it would need another kick once it stops moving. This process goes on until you eventually reach your destination.
Scientists have proven that the donkey really isn't that stupid. The poor donkey only has a sight of 4-feet, which would explain why it wouldn't even move towards food that is placed in front of it.
The donkey needs to be able to see where it's going before actually moving. Just imagine being in the dark, you wouldn't know where to go, and the best thing to do at that moment is to sit still.
In life, we need to have a goal. Having a goal is not exactly enough, we'll have to be able to see the goal to actually move towards it. If we just can't see the goal, we're just like the donkey, always staying put until someone else gives us a kick in the ass.
Whenever we set a goal, we should set something achievable, something within our line of sight. When we know we can't achieve our goal, we'll just slow down or even give up in the process. On the other hand, we'll surely move at a faster pace when we can see our goal.

&&&Picking the Perfect Pet For Your Child
A number of people insist that their pet is the safest for children, but can you actually be sure? The younger the child, the more alert you should be with their interactions with the family pet, no matter how sweet-tempered and trustworthy that pet has been. Certainly, you believe that you have the best-behaved dog or cat in the whole world, but would you really be prepared to gamble your child's well-being and health on it?
Make sure that your child knows how to approach all animals, whether they are their own pets or not, right from the very start. If you teach your child the proper way to interact with animals, than you won't have to worry about them irritating an animal. Introduce the pet and your youngster as soon as possible, but split up the two at the very first warning of anxiety or fear from either party. Give your pet and child a peaceful introduction, allowing the dog or cat to sniff the child's foot while staying away from the child's face. You could also allow the dog or cat to get a whiff of some of the child's toys when the child is elsewhere. Make sure the space is large enough for the pet to get away if he feels the need. Some dogs will understand that your rowdy, tail-pulling child is virtually a continuous source of easy treats, so he may deal/cope with much more than you ever gave him credit for. Remember that your doggy might have permitted an hour of tail yanking entertainment yesterday, but tonight it is ten minutes max, so keep a close eye.
Dogs usually do not bite without warning, they will let out a growl telling you to remove your child a.s.a.p, unlike cats who will not give warning. Your rambunctious tot can easily aggravate a cat, and without warning the cat could wipe the child's face, and let's pray the claws are sheathed. There are cats who would never harm your child, but some have a low tolerance for children pestering them, so use caution.
Be certain to use tremendous caution if you are considering any of the following pets. These include scorpions, snakes, spiders, and any other form of hair-raising crawly that could escape from their cage and hurt your innocent child. Yes, kids put just about everything, including insects into their mouths, so keep that in mind. Be very cautious with large snakes they have been knowing to mistake small kids for a prey source. When it comes to selecting a pet fitting for your child, be intelligent about it, introduce the child and pet with caution, and try to go with the pet that is the least risky.

Train Your Dog - Best Tips For a Successful Training
Why is it so? Now, for instance, you are the owner. In this role, you are blessed to keep a close eye on both the activities and responses of your pet dog. What is the result? Being familiar with its every approach you can take the appropriate measures as a trainer. This is not simply possible in any professional kind of dog behavior training. You, in contrast to the dog behavior training, can imitate your own style of training and I believe that you will be successful in the end. However, you should be pertinacious and patient since no success can be attained overnight.
What should be your basic duties or responsibilities? You shall have to concentrate on some basic factors from the outset. The most important notion is to follow the obedience commands in a very well manner and you have to be the effective guide to the dog whenever. There is also an essential need to perform simple tricks. The best will be if you can present them during the command training. They will help the dog a lot to comprehend the commands and perform, therefore. Remember it is important and you should adopt measures to make it learn the secrets of herding, tracking, and retrieving ability. The dog must be kept in a cheerful mood always and you must never dream of punishing it physically.
You are his trainer and above all the master. For this reason, you must behave in that way but never become a tyrant. Leadership and tyranny are different ideas and you have to learn the difference before anything. The dogs due to the genetic influences love to remain in the dominion of a strong leader. They are acquainted with this concept for generations and you must also act in the same way. This is necessary or else the dog may refuse to obey your instructions. Each and every command of yours during the command training should be explicit and of one word in addition. Each command should let the dog comprehend your instruction. Now the dog can't understand your language obviously. It will be better if you can physically demonstrate the command at each time. This will boost its confidence.
The reward training should be introduced after 2-3 weeks of the commencement. What is reward training? This is a way of acknowledging its excellent performances during training through giving some treats. But do this seldom otherwise it will be synonymous with indulgence. It boasts a dog to perform better for more success.

>>>5 Activities Cats Love to Engage in Whenever They Can
Cats Love To Scratch And Claw
It is instinctive of cats to scratch and claw different surfaces as a way of sharpening their claws. Actually, they have lots of fun doing this.
In addition to sharpening their claws, scratching can help relax and rejuvenate cats. Think of it as the human equivalent to a nice, long stretch when your muscles are tired or achy. A quick scratch session on a cat tree or scratching post can wake a tired kitty up immediately.
Cats Love Daily Playtime
Playtime is serious business for cats, all the way from kittenhood to their senior years. It doesn't take much to keep a cat entertained - she'll play with anything from lint and string, to tricked-out cat toys-but it is a vital part of their health and development. Not only does playtime hark back to their days in the wild when they had to stalk, hunt, and capture their prey, but it keeps them exercised, engaged, and happy, too.
There are literally hundreds of thousands of cat toys on the market, but your cat may like playing games, such as hide and seek, too. No matter your cat's choice of play, it's important to sneak in a few minutes daily.
Cats Love Watching Birds
It's not uncommon to see cats curled up on windowsills. Why? It's a prime bird-watching location! Whether cats love to watch birds because they're prey or simply because the movement captures their attention, some cats can spend hours observing birds every day.
If your cat loves to curl up in windows, be sure to protect her skin from the sun's harsh rays, especially if she has light-colored fur. Try to limit her hours next to the window when the sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.-and talk to your vet about kitty-approved sunscreens.
Cats Love Their Humans
Although cats are often depicted as solitary animals, they need love, attention, and companionship-and love to get it from their humans. The ways cats say "I love you" are just a little bit different than we humans.
Some signs your cat loves you include purring, bunting (or putting her head on you), sleeping on or near you, meowing, licking, and even sticking her butt in your face. Yes, really.
Cats Love to Eat Fresh, Nutritious Food
It's unlikely that you'd want to dive into a big plate of spoiled food at dinnertime. The same goes for your cat. Stale and spoiled food doesn't just taste bad, either-it can host different types of bacteria, like Salmonella and Staphylococcus, too.

Wild Foxes Try Out John Lewis’s Christmas Advertisement And Bounce On A Trampoline
We all remember John Lewis’s Christmas commercial featuring two foxes, a badger, a squirrel, and even a hedgehog, who enjoy a late-night bouncing session on the new trampoline in front of grump Buster who is stuck inside before he gets a turn on Christmas morning.
These wild foxes lived in this person's backyard for a summer in Colorado. She never saw them put on a show like this before, and never saw them again after the summer was over. Luckily, she captured this incredible moment on camera!
The “pouncing” behavior is used by foxes in the wild, especially when they’re jumping on rodents hidden beneath the snow. This video shows two wild foxes bouncing around, playing, and biting at one another while exploring the trampoline.
Both kids and adults enjoy the sheer enjoyment that comes from jumping on a trampoline, but it turns out that this fun factor isn’t just limited to humans. Watch in this caught-on-camera moment as foxes decide to test the high-flying device out for themselves.
The footage shows scenes almost exactly the same as the Christmas advert, the two foxes are joyously playing on the bouncing device, occasionally nipping at each other’s faces. It is adorable to witness that animals also want to have a moment of joy and play!

Ducklings are so cute that every night they will instinctively swim
Ducks have this built-in instinct of how to swim built into them when they are born. Puddles and Quackers go for an evening swim to keep up with their daily exercise and to help them grow. Their owner loves to watch them swim and dive through the water as they only stay small for so long. Ducks grow up so fast and their cute little yellow “fur” starts to disappear. When they are young you are supposed to watch them in the water to make sure they don’t drown. But you have to enjoy every moment when they are young.
