Adopting a dog is a big decision. Your life will change for many years to come. We have dreams and plans about all the things we want to do together with our new four-legged friend. We want the new dog to be harmonious and happy and blend in seamlessly into our existing life. Sometimes that happens and other times a dog need more support fand it takes a greater adjustment to get the dog there.
It is getting hot outside and you need help getting your dog's energy out, but want to keep them safe too! The good news is that just like physical exercise makes a dog tired, so does mental stimulation.
February is usually one of the most challenging times of year for dog parents -- when outside there are freezing temperatures but your furry friend still wants to play!
Your behavior as a new dog owner or foster can have significant influence over your dog’s behavior as they settle into their new home. Proactively setting your dog up for success is key to separation anxiety prevention.
