🐶🔊🚪Stop the barking with this simple approach!

Reward your dog for a behavior that makes barking inconvenient. Incompatible behaviors include retrieving a toy, tugging on a toy, and going to their bed or crate.

First, teach the new behavior in a quiet and distraction-free space, rewarding your dog generously for a correct performance.

Next, practice the behavior in the area where your dog barks, gradually increasing the challenge level. Cue the new behavior the moment your dog is distracted, and prompt them if needed.

Soon, your dog will perform the new behavior instead of barking when they hear a stimulus like the doorbell, delivery truck, or barking neighbor dogs.

Fear and stress are common underlying causes of behavior problems in cats. Signs of fear in cats include ears laid back or flattened against the head, crouched body posture, tail tucked under the body, and legs tucked under the body.

Cats exhibiting an arched back, straight up tail, and bristled hair are called the "Halloween Cat" and are more likely to become aggressive if the source of their fear is not removed. It's best to avoid interacting with cats exhibiting these aggressive postures.

Teaching your dog to bark on command might seem like the opposite of what you want, but it can be a helpful step in training them to be quiet.

Let it out — First, find a stimulus that makes your dog bark naturally. It could be a knock on the door, a doorbell sound, or someone saying “Speak.” When your dog barks, reward them with praise and a treat.

Hold it in — Next, wait for a pause in the barking, say “Quiet” or another cue you choose, and offer a treat when your dog stops barking. Gradually increase the amount of time between barks before you give the “Quiet” cue.

Put it all together — Finally, practice the “Speak” and “Quiet” cues together until your dog can bark and then stop on command. This will give you more control over your dog’s barking and help them understand when it’s appropriate to bark and when they should be quiet.

👍📞Call 508-743-8338 to talk to your veterinarian about the benefits of spaying or neutering your furry friend.

🐶🐱 Are you overfeeding your pet? It's easy to do when you're using an eyeball measurement or just filling up their bowl.

To ensure your furry friend is getting the right amount of food, calculate their daily caloric needs using a dog or cat calorie calculator.

🍗🍲🍖 Divide that amount into two or three meals and be mindful of the treats you give them. Treats should take up no more than 10% of their daily calorie intake. Want to make sure you're feeding your pet the right amount?

Call 508-743-8338 to talk to your veterinarian.

🍇🚫 STOP! Grapes and raisins are NOT pet-friendly snacks!

🐾 Even if your furry friend begs for a bite, it's best to avoid feeding them these toxic treats. Why? Because they contain tartaric acid that can lead to vomiting, diarrhea, and kidney damage. Play it safe and stick to pet-safe snacks!👌

01/02/2025

Identifying and eliminating your pet’s trigger is an effective way to reduce excessive barking. To do this, observe your pet’s behavior and determine what environmental stimuli prompt them to bark.

Then, try to change or eliminate the trigger. For example, if your dog barks at people walking by your house, consider blocking their visual access to the window or door, or move their bed to another room.

Similarly, if your dog barks at the sound of the doorbell, try placing a sign on your door asking visitors to text instead of ringing the bell. By eliminating or changing the trigger, you can help your pet feel calmer and reduce their barking.

🙅‍♀️🍇 No grapes or raisins for your furry friends!

🦟 Did you know that Lyme disease-affected pets do not develop the classic bullseye rash seen in humans? In fact, many pets show no signs at all, or their signs are often vague and nonspecific, which sometimes results in an incorrect or delayed diagnosis.

Lyme disease testing (i.e., a blood test) is advised for pets with clinical signs that include fever, lethargy, appetite loss, swollen lymph nodes, intermittent lameness, and painful or swollen joints.

Because Lyme disease signs can come and go or be entirely absent, we recommend dogs be tested annually for tick-borne diseases, which involves a simple blood test similar to their yearly heartworm test. Protect your furry friend from this debilitating condition by contacting us at 508-743-8338. 🐾

🐕🐈 A healthy diet is important, but so is exercise! Encourage your furry friend to get up and get moving every day. Even a short burst of activity can help. For cats, a few 5- or 10-minute play sessions throughout the day are best.

🎾🐾 Dogs, on the other hand, benefit from a longer walk or a game of fetch. Keeping your pet active is key to helping them maintain a healthy weight.

Need ideas for exercising with your pet? Reach out to our team for tips! Call 508-743-8338 to talk to your veterinarian.

One way to combat excessive barking is by providing your furry friend with plenty of mental stimulation. You can accomplish this through activities like obedience training, agility courses, and scent work. Try incorporating new and challenging games to help keep your dog's mind active and alert. A mentally stimulated dog is less likely to bark out of boredom.
