SLEEP - Make sure that your dogs are getting enough sleep. The time when most dogs are resting and sleeping is when owners are at work. For many though this is not happening at the moment. Not only that but in households with children there can be constant fast movement and high pitched noises. There may a lot of new and exciting play, extra long walks in new environments. There may be other noises in the home, raised voices, mowers, drills, hammering, furniture moving etc as we all tackle the jobs that haven't been looked at for years! All of this adds to your dog's stress bucket and prevents quality sleep. Don't expect your dog to know when they are overtired and to take themselves to bed (would your toddler do that?). Make sure you build some quiet time into your dog's day. Put then in their crate, pen, bed or whatever, with a long lasting chew and leave them. This can be in another room or at least out of the way of regular footfall. Remind children to always leave sleeping/resting dog alone.
Signs that dogs are getting overtired: yawning, forgetting known cues, zoomies, loose control of how they behave, short fuse, barking more, getting more clingy or anxious, showing stress signs, trying to get away from situations, drinking more..... these are just to name a few. Some days it may well be beneficial for your dog to stay at home when you all go out for your daily exercise, allowing your dog to totally escape the constant noise and movement resulting in good quality rest and sleep. 🐾😴
