How does your dog cope with being left home alone?

For a lot of owners this can be a stressful event, as their dog becomes anxious, howls, paces, sits by the front door, or looks out of the window for their owner’s safe return. Everyday chores such as doing the shopping become impossible, and you find yourself having to get someone in to dog sit, and before you know it, you are living your life around your dog’s anxiety.

Separation Anxiety is very distressing for owners to observe; however, imagine how the dog must be feeling to exhibit all this anxious behaviour. The good news is that it doesn’t have to be this way. Understanding the ‘why’ behind the behaviour, is key to changing the behaviour - https://www.houndsnharmony.co.uk/canine-behaviour

Meridians are energy pathways within the body, all working together to maintain, support and nourish every inch of our dogs body, both inside and out. However, when these Meridians become compromised, due to some form of stress, beit emotional, physical or biochemical, it can start to have a negative effect on their behaviour and wellbeing.

For example, the Lung Meridian is our breath, which feeds our various body systems with oxygen, giving them energy to work efficiently. However, a compromised Lung Meridian can present in compulsive behaviours and stubbornness, with the connected emotional stress being grief and anxiety. If not re-balanced, this can go on to present in physical symptoms such as; respiratory conditions, itchy skin, allergies, neck & shoulder issues and poor circulation.

Restoring the balance in this Meridian, enables the energy to flow, thus improving healing and overall wellbeing - Animal Kinesiology | HoundsnHarmony

Kinesiology is an incredibly powerful modality that uses a fusion of Eastern and Western medicine & techniques to improve the health and wellbeing of owners and their pets.

How? There are flows of energy throughout our bodies, linking muscles, organs, cells, and the nervous system as a whole. This creates a web of energy pathways, with each one influencing the other – a bit like a circuit board. However, when that circuit board is overloaded with everyday life, such as emotional and/or physical stress, the communication between the circuits can become compromised, causing other areas to compensate. When our ‘stress’ is short lived, the body can normally re-balance itself without any ill effects, however when the ‘stress’ is constant and prolonged, the body may struggle to re-balance and after a while we see and feel the compensating effects in the form of aches, pains, headaches, skin disorders, behaviour changes, illness and so on. Most of us have experienced long-term stress, such as relationship breakdowns, illness, caring for a loved one etc., and are only too aware of the effect this ‘stress’ has on our mental and physical health.

Due to their unsavoury and often unknown background, rescue dogs tend to live in a constant state of fight/flight (stress), which puts considerable strain on their physical body and their emotional state, and just like us, this effects their behaviour and wellbeing. However, it’s not just rescue dogs that are ‘out of balance’. Due to our hectic lifestyles and the mixed signals that we unknowingly project, our dogs often live their lives on high alert; following us everywhere, getting upset when left alone, barking at every noise they hear, the list goes on.

Dogs are not able to communicate their fears, phobias, or aliments to us, and therefore both owner and dog can benefit greatly from a kinesiology balance, as it gives the owner a real insight into what’s causing the ‘stress’ that is impacting on the dogs behaviour, as well as identifying what is needed for the dog to heal and maintain balance.

Well that's a wrap. A massive thank you to everyone that has supported my business throughout 2024, by liking, sharing & commenting on my posts. It has been an absolute pleasure looking after your precious furbabies, as well as supporting you with their challenging behaviour.

I'd also like to thank my partner Jon Brown who's constant support is truly a gift and one that I will always be grateful for. We're off to rub shoulders with Mickey Mouse & friends in Florida for 2 weeks, which leaves my final thank you to Sean Duffey who will be holding the fort back at Henley House.

Wishing you all a wonderful Christmas and New Year celebrations xx
