Lots of families walk their dogs when they walk their children to school. It's a good way for the family dog to get exercise and enjoy varied surroundings. Plus, it's good for kids, too -- saying good-bye to poochie at the school's front door is a pleasant way to start the day. However, many schools have "No dogs on school property" rules and some students may be frightened by your friendly Fido. Be considerate. Know and follow the rules. And, be respectful of others feelings.
Your dog will definitely be happy to see you when you get home from school. Schedule time before homework for a little extra attention at the end of a long day -- a game of fetch or tug, a good brushing, or an afternoon walk. Don't forget extra attention for kitty and small animals, too. They are adjusting to the schedule change and will be happy to welcome you home.
