The Holiday season is upon us. And with holiday fun, comes holiday STRESS.
Between all the good food and festive parties, there is also the inescapable holiday anxiety.
Studies have shown that our furry best friends can sense human emotions. This means when you express excitement, your dog mimics that response. This also means when your stress levels begin to rise, so can your pups.
Luckily, we have 4 awesome tips to help your dog relax and enjoy the holidays with you.
Be Aware of your Emotion
You must take care of yourself before your pup! The feelings of worry, anxiety and anger are the easiest for a dog to read and, the easiest for a dog to inhabit. If you sense yourself feeling stressed, take deep breaths, and calm yourself down. If you can learn to control your stress levels, so can Fido!
