"Separation Anxiety Part 2: The real cause of separation anxiety? We still don’t know the answer completely! But some of the possible causes:
1️⃣Genetics: Some pups may inherit a predisposition to separation anxiety.
2️⃣Environmental Changes: Moving or a significant shift in the environment can contribute.
3️⃣Loss in the Family: A pet or human family member's death might be a factor.
4️⃣Pandemic Impact: The upheavals of Covid-19 haven't made things easier.
5️⃣Rehoming Challenges: Dogs from rehoming or rescue situations may grapple with the yoyo effect.
6️⃣Insufficient Alone Time Training: Busy schedules sometimes mean not gradually teaching your pup to be home alone.
Remember, for some dogs, genetics play a significant role, and despite efforts, they may need individualised assistance.
Separation anxiety is intricate, and spoiling your dog doesn't trigger it! Each dog is unique, and understanding their history can shed light on its cause. Rescue dogs, especially, may need time to settle into their new homes.
If your pupper battles separation anxiety, reach out to Kim from @workingwithwoofers, a Certified Separation Anxiety Trainer (one of less than 250 worldwide!).

The popularity of essential oils has surged in recent years, and their myriad benefits for humans contribute to this widespread acclaim. From addressing anxiety to promoting relaxation and enhancing energy levels, the diverse array of tinctures has made them a favored supplement in many people's daily routines.
However, it's crucial to recognise that while these oils offer positive effects for us, they can pose a significant threat to our feline friends. The assumption that natural equals safety doesn't hold true, especially when it comes to cats. Their susceptibility to potential toxicity from essential oils is heightened due to the unique functioning of their liver.
Engaging with essential oils, be it through diffusers or direct application, can lead to severe consequences for cats, including the risk of liver failure. Their inability to metabolise these oils properly makes it imperative for pet owners to be well-informed about which oils pose the greatest danger to their feline companions.

What's the Scoop on Scooting? 🤔 Picture your dog dragging their hindquarters – that's scooting! While it might elicit a chuckle, it's often a sign that something needs attention.
Top 4 Reasons Your Dog is Scooting: 📊
1️⃣ Blocked Anal Glands: A common culprit! When fluid in the anal sacs can't empty naturally, it leads to discomfort and scooting. 🚫🍑
2️⃣ Underlying Allergies: Allergies, whether to food or the environment, can prompt your pup to scoot in an attempt to relieve the itchiness. 🌾🤧
3️⃣ Infections (Abscesses): Sometimes, infections like abscesses can cause discomfort, and scooting is their way of trying to alleviate it. 🦠🚑
4️⃣ Tumours/Growths: While less common, tumours or growths in the anal area may lead to scooting. A vet check is essential for a thorough evaluation. 🩺🐶
If your furry friend is scooting, it's time for a vet visit to pinpoint the cause and get that tail wagging comfortably again! 🏥🐾
