How To Stop Separation Anxiety In Dogs

If you’re a dog owner, you know how frustrating it can be when your dog gets anxious about being left alone at home, here are some of our own tips to stop separation anxiety in dogs.

Dogs experience anxiety just like we do. This is natural, life can be stressful! However, unlike people, dogs can’t verbally express their anxiety (It’s not like we can explain to them what’s going on). Lots of dog parents are opting for the all-natural holistic approach when it comes to their pet’s anxiety more than ever before.

This article contains an explanation of how and why pet separation anxiety develops and what can be done to reduce it, as well as a detailed look at a product called Chill Drops that may help.

1. Understanding your dog’s behaviour is the first place to start as this will give you the chance to identify any other problems that may exist and get your dog the help he or she needs. Once you know what’s going on in your dog’s world, you can decide whether you want to change anything about your dog’s behaviour. If you decide to do something about your dog’s behaviour, here are some of the things you can try.

2.  Make sure that your dog is familiar with his or her surroundings. Your dog needs to be comfortable in the house and know where all the things are in the house. Your dog should also be familiar with other animals. If your dog is afraid of cats or any other animals, you should teach your dog to be comfortable around them.

3. Practice separation, once the dog is in a familiar environment and comfortable, practice leaving them alone, only for a short period, but extend it each time until you get up to the required amount of time.

4. Understand that dogs learn by example, make sure you set a routine and keep to it. If you cave in your dog will push the boundaries more and more.

5. Walk them just before going out, taking your dog on a long walk just before leaving them alone is one of the most important things. It will hopefully tire them out so they will be more relaxed and calm when you leave.

In a dog’s mind, it is very easy to understand. They have different ways to show their emotions. For example, if they’re happy, they will wag their tail. If they’re scared, they might show it by turning their head or putting their ears back. They also have different ways to express their emotions. Some will bark or growl while others will yelp. If your dog has no control over his or her emotions, you should be concerned. He or she can have separation anxiety and that means that your dog feels anxious when he or she is left alone.

To help your dog overcome this, you should try to prevent him or her from feeling anxious in the first place. If you are concerned about the amount of time your dog spends alone, you can use the techniques described below. You can also find some helpful tips on how to handle separation anxiety.
