- Try to maintain your pet’s daily schedule as much as possible. Keep mealtimes, potty breaks, and bedtime as close as you can to what they have become used to.
- Make sure they are getting plenty of exercise. If your dogs are used to spending hours outside with the kids, you may need to take them on a couple of extra walks during the day or playing fetch a few times a day. Hiring a dog walker may be a great solution if this doesn’t match your work schedule.
- If additional walks are not something that can fit in your schedule, don’t worry because there are other ways to “exercise” your pet. 15 minutes of mental stimulate is equivalent to a 3-minute walk. Our newest favorite stimulates for your pet’s mind:
West Paw Toppl + Nugget’s Healthy Eats Bone Broth Butter
LickiMat + Weruva Pumpkin Pouch
Outward Hound Puzzle Toy + Polka Dog Bakery Wonder Nuggets
JugHead + Himalayan Cheese (Buy a JugHead, Get Cheese for Free in the month of August!)
- Give your pet a sense of comfort with a Snuggle Puppy. The SmartBeat Heart is motion activated based on your dog’s movement. The Snuggle Puppy recreates the intimacy and physical warmth with a pulsing Real-Feel Heartbeat and 3 overnight heat packs. The result is a calmer, more peaceful pet, who feels less loneliness, fear, and separation anxiety.
