🐾 Got an anxious dog when you leave the house? You’re not alone 💛
Here are a few simple things that can really help keep your pup calm and happy while you’re away:
🐶 Tire them out first
A good walk before you leave can make a HUGE difference — a tired dog is a relaxed dog!
🧸 Leave something comforting
A favourite toy or even an item of your clothing can help them feel safe
⏰ Keep a routine
Dogs love knowing what to expect — try to leave and return at similar times
🎵 Background noise helps
Leaving the TV or radio on can make the house feel less empty
🚪 Don’t make a big fuss leaving
Keep it calm and low-key so they don’t pick up on any stress
Every dog is different, but small changes like these can really help 💛
If you need a helping hand while you’re out, I offer pet sitting and dog walking on the Isle of Wight🐾
