Greetings ,
Ready for Day 3 of Secrets To Keep Your Dog Happy & Healthy!?
Secret #3: Mental Health Is As Important As Physical Fitness 🧠
Does your dog show any of these common stress signs?
- Separation anxiety
- Destructive
- Bored
- Misbehaving
Enhancing your dog's mental well-being will improve their quality of life and reduce destruction in your home.
Dogs can become stressed out, too!
Be it boredom, loneliness, frustration, or fear, taking steps to relieve your furry friend’s anxieties can go a long way.
Puzzles mentally stimulate your pet and keep them out of trouble, defusing anxious thoughts.
An excellent and inexpensive tool to distract your dog while engaging its foraging skills is a snuffle mat!
Sniffing out treats can bring delight as they dig for more.
Pet counselors often employ similar techniques with dogs as with humans.
But how do you know if your dog needs counseling? And where do you find a certified pet therapist?
Keep Calm & Carry On
Dogs feed off of YOUR energy. So, don’t respond negatively when they don’t listen. Use lots of love (and treats) to reward good behavior.
See you tomorrow for dog health secret #4…
