Anyone else dreaming of those summer dog walks?! 🙈🌧
Here are some quick tips for dog owners to keep in mind when faced with a storm:
• Only go for walks if it is safe to do so, and your dog is comfortable.
• If the usual walk is not an option, introduce some indoor training sessions and enrichment throughout the the day to mentally stimulate your dog.
• Give your dog a place inside that they can feel safe. This could include closing the curtains, adding their bed/ blanket, treats etc.
• In the event your dog runs off or gets lost, make sure they have an ID tag and their microchip details are up to date.
• The use of pheromone collars or plug ins have been found to help some dogs with stress/ anxiety.
• Try playing gentle, calming music for dogs.
Stay safe everyone 🐾
