Create a Safe Space for Your Pet This Summer
🛏️ Sometimes the best way to help an anxious pet is by giving them a quiet place to reset.

With thunderstorms rolling through the Sierra, neighborhood fireworks, and extra guests coming and going, Northern Nevada summers can be noisy and unpredictable for our pets.

Setting up a calm, secure retreat can make a huge difference. Try this:
🔸 Use a crate, covered bed, or quiet room away from the action
🔸 Add a favorite blanket or piece of your clothing for comfort
🔸 Play soft music or white noise to drown out startling sounds
🔸 Start using it before stressful events so it feels safe…not like a punishment

Your pet’s quiet zone can be a powerful tool for managing seasonal stress and it’s easy to create at home.

Have questions or need help building a summer anxiety plan? We’re just a call away.

Heatstroke Happens Fast
☀️ Northern Nevada’s dry heat can fool you…your pet may be overheating before you even notice.

Watch for signs of heat exhaustion:
🔸 Excessive panting
🔸 Bright red gums or tongue
🔸 Drooling, weakness, or collapse

Avoid walks during the hottest part of the day, carry water, and never push your pet to keep up. Dogs don’t cool off the way we do.

When in doubt, take the walk later, or skip it altogether.

Is It Bad Behavior or Pet Anxiety?
Not every bark, bite, or chewed-up cushion is mischief.

Sometimes, what looks like “bad behavior” is actually your pet trying to cope with stress or fear.

In the Carson Valley area, we see more pets experiencing anxiety during the summer months…thanks to louder outdoor activity, longer periods of separation, unpredictable weather, and travel disruptions.

Here are some common signs that your pet may be struggling with anxiety:
🔹 Pacing or panting for no clear reason
🔹 Hiding under furniture or in closets
🔹 Excessive licking, chewing, or scratching (especially paws or belly)
🔹 Whining, barking, or howling when left alone
🔹 Destructive behavior like chewing walls, doors, or furniture
🔹 Changes in appetite or bathroom habits
🔹 Sudden clinginess or unusual withdrawal

If your pet’s behavior seems “off” or if they’re acting out in ways they haven’t before, don’t wait or write it off as defiance.

Anxiety is very real for pets, and without help, it can escalate into serious health or behavior problems.

The good news?
There are safe, compassionate, and effective ways to manage anxiety and it all starts with a conversation.

Our team is here to listen, evaluate your pet’s behavior, and build a plan that works for your family. From natural calming aids and supplements to medical treatment and behavioral referrals, we’ll help you find a path toward peace of mind — both for you and your beloved pet.

🩺 Call us today to schedule a behavior consult or wellness visit. Let’s find out what your pet is really trying to tell you.
