Body look like a ski jump?โ›ท๏ธ
We need to recognise bows as more than just play.โฌ…๏ธ

"My dogs bows are because of pain"
Valid point and I am kicking myself a bit this isn't on the chart but it is really important.
This can be a position that can indicate illness or discomfort.

"She does this when she wants to leave"
Yup....because that position allows for fast movement.
An exit preparation when they find themselves overwhelmed.
Your dog wants to bolt away if needed.

"He shows this when the other dog is too energetic"
It can be a calming signal ....a way to show the other dog "hey, I need a breather"

Stalking
A classic pre stalk position.

If we only believe bows mean play.... we are closing the door on that deeper understanding.

They are communicating.
We just need to keep a more open mind and perhaps not assume or hope it "just means play".

Did you know that more pets go missing on July 4th than any other time of the year? They bolt from yards, homes, cars, backyard BBQs, and firework celebrations. Letโ€™s change this now!

Join me in reimagining the way we celebrate! While fireworks may dazzle some, they pose a tragic risk for many, from our beloved pets to veterans and others who suffer from PTSD.

Keep your fur kids safe:

First and foremost, if you are attending firework displaysโ€”LEAVE your pets at home where they feel most secure. Or better yetโ€ฆ

Stay home and snuggle up indoors (donโ€™t forget pet ID tags!) and shield them from the overwhelming noise.

Pets might resort to desperate measures to find safety, so take precautionsโ€”donโ€™t leave gates and doors open, shut pets behind closed doors when answering the front door, crate and use a leash for more control.

Increase the ambient noise with soothing music or white noise to help drown out fireworks.

Close curtains to create a cozy and serene environment.

There are many natural calming remedies to help soothe an anxious petโ€™s nerves without reaching for pharmaceuticals with harmful side effects. It is very hard to recommend any particular one because every pet is unique. Iโ€™ve personally given my pups L-theanine, Bachโ€™s Rescue Remedy, Melatonin, and CBD with varying degrees of success. I encourage you to do some research on any of the following: Valerian, L-Theanine, Bachโ€™s Rescue Remedy, Calming treats and biscuits with a combination of calming supplements, CBD /H**p oil (which can also help with joint pain), and Melatonin. And PLEASE share your suggestions in the comments below!

Extreme anxiety cases may call for professional guidanceโ€š consult your veterinarian for prescription sedatives if necessary.

Letโ€™s create a world where every celebration includes the happiness and security of EVERYONE, including our cherished pets. Together, we can make a difference. Choose love, choose safety, and make this yearโ€™s festivities a joyous occasion for all, both big and small! x0Amy
