Being aware of dog-focused people can help a real estate agent in their quest to help their clients find the right home. Dog-dedicated people often have more money than the average person to focus on their pets and on their property, making them worth the time spent on researching the dog scene. Dog people tend to find one another at veterinary offices, dog parks and the local kennel club. If you are known as an agent who is sensitive to the needs of the dog owner, word-of-mouth is very likely to work in your favor in the dog world.

If a couple emphasizes their dog(s) when they are telling you about their ideal home, it might indicate that their purchase of a home may hinge on how well it will work for their canine companions. People who show or breed or are involved in dog competitions are often people who look at a house in terms of how well it will fit their dogs’ needs.

Most dog people look for houses with a fenced yard for their dogs to play in. Ask your clients if they would consider building fences/kennels if there are none on the property. If they would be willing to do so, you may be able to show them properties that are unfenced.

Houses with “mud rooms” or “mud areas” where a person can dry off a wet/dirty dog after a walk are appreciated, especially by dog owners with furry or shaggy breeds. If your clients have senior dogs, make sure you emphasize any easily navigated entrys, exits and access to the yard. Other places to call attention to are recreation rooms that can be converted to grooming/training areas and small, out-of-the-way rooms that may be good choices for quiet whelping areas.

Some dog people consider their dogs as their children and some dog people don’t, but it may help to consider your clients’ dogs as such and ask yourself, “What amenities would these people be looking for if their dogs were kids?” Schools, stores that sell supplies and toys, places their kids can play and establishment where their (polite) kids are welcome.

Questions to consider are: What is the reputation and influence of the local kennel club? Are there other obedience schools in the area? What about grooming establishments? Pet supply stores? Are there walking trails nearby? Dog parks? Places where a dog can run off-lead without incurring a fine or disturb others? Are there cafes around that offer outdoor seating? You may want to take note of any establishment that offers free dog biscuits or sets out water bowls.

A new company that appeared on the scene in January of 2007 is banding pet-focused agents together. “The Pet Realty Network” is a company dedicated to connecting buyers with real estate agents who know their pets and what it takes to find a home that they will live happily in. The website is petrealtynetwork.com; certainly worth a try if you’re looking to advertise yourself as a pro-pet agent.

For the dedicated dog owner, a real estate agent who knows local by-laws or is willing to research them is invaluable. If Pookie is a rottweiler or an American pit bull terrier, some neighborhoods can be less friendly, even if Pookie is an impeccably trained, always-under-control, good-tempered dog. Don’t despair if there are by-laws that restrict the breed of dog your clients have; see if there are ways around the law; for example some communities will waive the breedist restriction if the owner has proof of temperament testing and/or obedience courses taken.

It helps if you are aware of the dog scene in the area your clients are considering. A working knowledge of the latest dog-related issues is also good, because it helps to know if your clients are considering an area known for its heart worm or if a rabies scare has been a headliner lately. Most dog-focused clients are aware of dog medical issues and can protect their dogs adequately, but they will appreciate your honesty and concern for their dog’s well-being.

Boning up (har-de-har, I made a funny) on the dog scene can help you find a property that your dog-focused clients will be happy with. It can also make your services more valuable to people who have the time and money to focus on their pets. If you choose to branch out into other animal-friendly real estate (for example, horse-friendly properties and neighborhoods), you may find that your services will be in demand by people who need an agent who knows what to look for.

Is your dog a couch potato? Does your dog have a weight problem? Are you worried about his health?

Consider that if exercise is important to us and our health, does it not go without saying that exercise for your dog is just as important? Exercise can help not only for your dog to be physically healthy, but also promotes better mental health for him.

Physically exercise can improve your dog’s cardiovascular capacity, promote healthier blood pressure, aid in better food digestion, tone muscles, increase bone strength and improve joint mobility. Exercise can also promote a healthier state of mind and provide stress relief while also burning off calories and decreasing body fat. A proper exercise program can also lessen the risk of contracting numerous diseases including heart attacks, diabetes, arthritis and cancer. The benefits of a regular exercise routine for your dog can be enormous.

Exercise can also help your dog to be better behaved. If your pet has a regular exercise program, all that pent-up energy will be spent and he may not have the energy to get into mischief or display unwanted behaviors, like being aggressive, barking excessively or chewing everything in sight.

And, providing a regular exercise program can help the bond you share with your dog. You can share time with your pet when you take him for walks or jog with him, or even when you take him to the doggie day care centre—whatever you choose as his exercise routine. You and he can have fun playing together or as you teach him new tricks. All of this can only improve the relationship you have with your dog.

Including a daily exercise regime does not have to be a complicated thing. All movement is considered exercise, so even if you do not have time to walk your dog for a mile or two everyday, there are easy ways to include exercise in his daily routine. And, there are many ways to get your dog moving that don’t take a lot of time. Find something fun for you both to do together. How about simply throwing a toy across the room for him to fetch? You can even do this as you work on your computer at home. Take a few minutes and play tug of war with him with a rope toy. Hide at treat and make him look for it. You can even do passive doggie massage.

If you really have a time problem, you can always hire a service to help. There are many agencies that specialize in dog-walking. There are pet resorts and doggie day care centres. Or you can even hire a neighborhood child to take your dog for a walk. There are treadmills made especially for dogs that you can use. Or perhaps getting a dog-door built into your house can help him get the exercise he needs.

There are also other ways how you can be involved with your dog’s exercise regime. How about training your dog to participate in agility competitions or various other competitions available, like dog sledding, sport hunting or herding dog competitions, lure coursing, fly tracking, or obedience competitions. Being involved in these competitions can help you get in your own exercise at the same time as your dog. The competitions mentioned here are only a few of the ones available; there are many others to choose from.

You can also sign up for different classes that you and your dog can do together. A great new one that is becoming popular is Doga which is yoga for dogs. This has all the calming benefits that people find with yoga, plus stretching and movement for your dog.

It is important that your dog, for his own sake, should not become a couch potato. Getting the proper amount of exercise can help him live a longer and happier life—one that you want to share in for a long time.
