Regularly trimming your dog's nails is crucial for preventing multiple complications associated with overgrown nails, such as ingrown nails, injuries, and infections. Overgrown nails can impede your dog's mobility and balance, increasing the likelihood of slips and falls, particularly on slippery surfaces.
Long nails can cause paw pad injuries, alter your dog's walking, and strain their joints and tendons, potentially leading to long-term issues like arthritis. New dog owners can safely trim their dog's nails at home using dog clippers or a Dremel (Dog Nail Trimmer), making it an accessible and essential aspect of their pet care routine. Read our blog to learn about the risks associated with overgrown nails.

Begin hiking with your King Shepherd on shorter, less challenging trails to gauge their endurance and acclimatize them to the experience. Gradually increase the length and difficulty of hikes as your dog builds stamina and confidence.
Ensure your King has access to plenty of fresh water throughout the hike, especially on hot days. Consider bringing a collapsible water bowl and a portable water filter to keep your dog hydrated from natural water sources along the trail.
Check your Shepherd's paw pads for cuts, abrasions, or signs of discomfort before and after each hike.
Keep your dog on a leash during hikes, especially in areas where wildlife or other dogs may be present. Ensure they wear a collar with identification tags and consider microchipping for added security in case they wander off or get separated from you on the trail.
Be mindful of your King Shepherd's physical limitations and signs of fatigue or distress during the hike. Take breaks as needed, provide lots of rest and shade, and watch for symptoms of overheating or dehydration.

No matter how busy life gets.
No matter how tired you are.
No matter what challenges life brings you.
Be there for your dog.
Spend as much time as you can with your dog.
Your dog will always be there for you during the most difficult times.
Their life is so short. And you are their whole life.
