A Good Dog Day Behavior and Training

12/31/2024

It's that time of year again. If you find yourself dreading New Year's Eve because you know it means a night of your dog pacing and trembling in fear with each loud boom, you're not alone. Noise sensitivities affect many dogs, and they tend to worsen (not fade away) with each negative experience.

But it doesn't have to be this way! You can bring in the new year with confidence that you have a set of strategies in place to improve your dog's experience (and yours, too!).

Did you know?...

"There are cases of dogs buddying up with one or more dogs for days at a time, and dogs being drawn into proximity to each other by food sources, however none of the above populations form packs the way wolves do. Males, in fact, do not participate in the rearing of puppies, which is the foundation of a wolf pack. And, scavenging far outpaces hunting as primary food-acquisition activity, another difference from wolves, who hunt much more."

Another classic by the Academy's director, Jean Donaldson, from our archives.
