April in the northeast is an immensely unpredictable time. We experience glimpses of the hottest days of summer, followed by endless dreary days of rain, sleet, and dare I suggest… snow. Some days you can experience all four seasons in one singular day, no hormonal imbalance required! It is no wonder the notoriously ambivalent April Ludgate shares her name. When Mother Nature is feeling as erratic as she does in the spring, all we can do is hunker down and prepare for the unexpected. This leaves little room for routine, and pushes toward a life of flexibility and rolling with whatever each day has in store. You must be able to change your plans fast, and your clothes even faster. 

If the weather is less “spring,” and a little more “showers,” indicating more indoor playtime, your pets will be happily contained within our indoor hidden pet boundaries. But when those idyllic glimpses of summer do appear–as shown in the various Hallmark movies they’ve been filming around here lately–you and your antsy pets will want to take full advantage of outdoor time by utilizing our outdoor hidden fence. Spring is also the perfect time to remind your pooch of his or her manners. Spring cleaning does in fact include banishing all quarantine quirks, and freshening up on how to act properly in public. There is good and bad news surrounding our collective quarantine recovery. The bad news is that we humans need to just figure it out through awkward small talk and uncomfortably long gaps of silence. The good news is, DogWatch can help our four-legged friends recover a bit easier. We have the perfect device to help your pets readjust properly to the excitement of the outside world. The BigLeash is a fantastic training tool to reinforce training commands as well as to change undesirable behaviors… nobody likes a crotch sniffer. 

Don’t hesitate in reaching out to DogWatch of Litchfield County today for a free quote! I promise we are a very friendly group of people; you’ll only ever experience the spring and none of the showers.
