Every day our pooches teach us that living in the moment is the best way to go. There's no reason to think about tomorrow's meeting or yesterday's disappointments. Why not think about that cute, cuddly puppy sitting on your lap?!

As humans, we experience time differently than dogs do.

Dogs, on the other paw, live only in the present ‘ in the moment. Living in the moment means dogs are only concerned with what's happening to them right now.

To achieve balance in our relationship with our dogs, we need to learn how to live more in the moment ourselves.

And one of the best ways to learn to live in the moment is to immerse ourselves to Nature, whether it's a beach, park, or hiking trail.

By living in the moment, you can understand more about how your dog experiences the world and thus deepen your relationship with him. You will also become much calmer Pack Leader.

To truly live in the moment, take Fido with you on a walk. Don't just take an ordinary walk, however. Head on a hike or visit a new site that you've never been to before.

Distracting yourself and focusing on new sites and sounds is exactly what you need to move beyond any distressing thoughts. Just like your pooch loves to take in the new sights and sounds without distraction, so can  you. Start today and follow your pup's mentality from Cesar's Way.
