How to Treat Dog Separation Anxiety

Dog separation anxiety is one of the most common problems you can encounter with your dog. If you have a dog that has separation anxiety symptoms, such as constant barking, destruction of furniture, or shaking, you need to help your dog. If you don't treat your dog, the symptoms will just get worse!

Here are the 3 pillars to successfully treat your dog:

1) Pack Leadership

Pack leadership is crucial for your dogs mental health. If your dog thinks that they are the leader, they become stressed more easily, because they aren't just worried about their own welfare, they are worried about you too. You will need to set some strict ground rules when you start you treating dog. For example, if your dog expects to be pet, make them sit first. If they don't sit, ignore them. They need to remember that they work for you.

2) Behavior Modification

Behavior Modification exercises are used to replace anxious behavior, with calm behavior, or no behavior at all. For example, if your dog gets anxious when you put on your shoes, you need to put on your shoes more often when you aren't leaving. This way, your dog no longer associated shoes with you going. Keeping your dog in a calm state before you leave is one of the keys to solving your dogs separation anxiety.

3) Medication and Natural Remedies

For dogs with severe separation anxiety, medications are available. One of the most common medications is Clomicalm. It takes a couple of weeks for it to kick in, but it does reduce the symptoms of anxiety. Clomicalm is not a magic pill. It needs to be combined with strong pack leadership and behavior modification to solve the problem. For less severe separation anxiety, natural remedies can help keep your dog in a calm mental state.

Finding a solution for separation anxiety used to be an expensive, time consuming process. Not anymore!

Freelance Copywriter

I know this is not related to anything dog or pet topic, but I'm just promoting the copy writing services of a friend.

My friend who blogs at PinoyCopywriter.com is offering his freelance copy writing services at affordable rates. I mean, he doesn't come cheap, but he's not expensive either. In my opinion he charges just right.

My Dog Loves Junk Food

I know that it's not a good thing that my dog eats junk food, but I give him one occasionally. His favorite? A small bag of Jack 'n Jill Chippy, the original flavor.

It's a treat I give him every once in a while but I know it's not really good for him because of the too much salt and artificial preservatives most junk food contain. Maybe I should just stop giving him one? Yes, that's the best thing that I should do.

Stupid Dog Trick, That's Really Funny and Not Stupid

Bailey, that dog who plays dead while in the arms of its owner, never ceases to make me laugh. Even Dave Letterman's laugh itself is very contagious.

I don't think you would see another such act anywhere else. Sure, some dogs play dead but that's while they are lying on the ground. Bailey is unique and more interesting. Just watch the video and you'll know.

Selecting the Appropriate Dog Food

Picking the best food for your dog is never an easy task. Especially if you are a first time dog owner, you will soon realize that there is more to simply grabbing a bag of kibbles at the supermarket and feeding your pet with it.

Some dogs are notoriously picky with their food, while others will devour anything that you give them. But still the fact remains that the most important thing is that you can provide the most nutritious food for your dog to ensure their longevity and health.

Here is a nice article where you can find out some ways to decide on the right dog food.

It's More Complicated Than Simply Buying Dog Food

We always want the best dog food for our pets, but some of us are not aware of the proper ways of choosing the best food for our dogs. You don't just go to the grocery store and pick the first pack you see there.

Not all commercially produced dog food is good for our canine friends. Some companies are unscrupulous enough that all they want is to earn profits even if the dog food they produce are of extremely low quality.

It's all in the advertising and marketing of the product. I believe that and so do many dog owners. But how do we know if the food we are buying is good for our dogs? One obvious way is to read the label. Let's make it a habit to read the ingredients. If we find that there are so many artificial flavorings, let's skip that pack.

Another is to ask experienced dog breeders and owners what food they are using. Especially if you have a specific purebred pet, ask other owners of that breed what food they are giving their dogs. Chances are it will also work best for your pet.
