Hi! It's Marty again!
I was a guest blogger here a few weeks ago and had so much fun that I asked Socks if I could write some words of wisdom about another topic--self care. He said yes!
Like most dogs, bath time isn't my favorite time, but I've learned that it's important to keep clean so that I can stay healthy and smelling fine! If I've been playing outside a lot or if it's warm weather, it's good to clean the dirt from my fur, as well as make sure my skin and coat are healthy and free from pests, like those itchy fleas! The sooner fleas are found, the better...take it from me!
Another self care task I've learned to deal with is getting my nails trimmed. My nails grow so fast. If they get too long, it makes it hard for me to walk properly! So, I try my best to sit still for nail trims. It goes pretty fast, and then afterwards I get a treat!
Even though I struggle with getting my teeth brushed, I know it is important to do it everyday so that my teeth can stay healthy and cavity-free.
Self care is important for people as well. Brushing teeth twice a day and regularly taking a bath or shower help keep humans healthy and smelling nice too!
Thanks for reading my blog post! Hopefully I'll see you again sometime!
