Long life dog bed for badly behaved pups

Advertisement

The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns have had a significant impact on many aspects of our lives, including the behaviour of our dogs. With more people staying at home and spending more time with their pets, dogs have had to adjust to new routines and schedules. This change in routine can be stressful for dogs, and some may develop behavioural issues as a result. Separation anxiety, for example, has become more common among dogs during the pandemic, as they have become used to having their owners around all the time. This can lead to destructive behaviours such as chewing or digging, as well as excessive barking or howling. Additionally, some dogs may become more aggressive or reactive due to the increased stress and uncertainty in their environment. As lockdowns begin to lift and people return to work and other activities outside the home, it is important for owners to work with their dogs to help them readjust to their pre-pandemic routines and avoid the development of long-term behavioural issues.

Dogs are pack animals and thrive on structure and routine, which helps them feel secure and stable. Allowing dogs to jump on sofas and other furniture that is typically reserved for human use can lead to confusion about the hierarchy and authority in the home. Dogs may begin to view themselves as equal to or even higher in rank than their owners, which can result in behaviour problems such as dominance, aggression, or disobedience. This confusion can be especially problematic for younger or less experienced dogs, who are still learning the rules of the household. It is important to establish clear boundaries and rules for dogs in the home, such as designating certain areas as off-limits or teaching them basic obedience commands to reinforce the owner’s position as the leader of the pack. By maintaining a consistent and structured environment, owners can help their dogs feel secure and prevent potential behavioural issues from arising.

This bed has subsequently been made as a mechanism for assisting with this problem, whilst keeping the positive interactions of sitting with the dog on the sofa that owners are used to and that helps them deal with their own anxieties and stresses, it also encourages the owner to consistently keep one of the most basic rules for dogs, to keep off the furniture. The bed is very easily adjustable and able to be dismantled, to be used as a very soft traditional dog bed, or to be placed on the sofa height stand, which can have an endless variety of uses when not being used as a stand.

The goal of Automobild was to create a building system toy dedicated to vehicles and transportation that works to the strengths of the subject matter. It was also important to provide an engaging and interactive play experience that explores the many real-world functions of automobiles.

The base kit consists of a central chassis that contains electronic features that can activate lights in attached parts. Wheel axles connect below, while body and interior details connect around the outside. The parts provided can be disassembled for the child to build and customise using the parts from other kits. The completed model can be pushed by hand on a flat surface. A free app would be connected wirelessly to the fully assembled car that further enhances the play experience by remotely controlling a variety of visual features including lights and sounds.

Design concept

Balloons are toys that children like very much, and the image of a child holding a balloon is often seen in children's drawings. it is a memory of childhood. in the design of the Balloon light, the function of making the balloon light float up and down will be added to simulate the floating of the balloon.

Design brief

The prosperity of the city makes people feel small and irrelevant. People look glamorous on the outside, but they are lonely inside. They want to be cared about, longing for warmth and hope for a better future. A lamp cannot actually bring No change, but I hope to bring some spiritual comfort to people's hearts in this lonely world.

Sustainable design

The material will use completely recycled plastic to make the lampshade. The manufacture of other parts of the lamps and lanterns will still be produced with long-life and environmentally friendly materials. The goal of the product is to be durable, which has important implications for the mission of the design.
