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.
