- If you are bringing home a new baby, first bring home an article of your baby’s clothing. This will help familiarize your pets with the smell of the new baby.
- If you have a busy schedule, your dog’s behavior may tell you it’s time to slow down. Being left alone for extended periods of time can be stressful for your dog. If your pet engages in destructive chewing, bouts of diarrhea or vomiting, he may be telling you he needs more attention.
- In a study, dogs who were exposed to classical music spent more time resting ~ and less time barking ~ than dogs who were exposed to heavy metal music. Next time you leave your dog home alone, turn the radio to a classical station to help minimize barking. Adopted from http://www.palsforpawshc.com
