Just straight chillin while doing one of the hardest things a mom could ever do!
Don’t judge my singing capabilities haha
Happy 4th! Here are some tips and tricks if your pups are scared this year.
1. Don’t coddle(biggest takeaway) once you coddle they lock on to the feeling of comfort from you than getting over their fears which will make them even more nervous each time.
2. Give them a REALLY good treat or toy they absolutely love and only get during time of nervousness. I actually had one fake being scared with random things for more treats one time🤪🤣 this will flip a switch in their mind from being scared everytime to “oh I get that really good treat” and therefore be excited instead.
3. Desensitize ahead of time. Play on YouTube while they are eating, playing or in their crate all night. Remember the younger you start the easier it will be to desensitize!
4. Most importantly, stay safe. Be smart with how loud it gets if you’re doing fireworks yourself or attending. Even some of the best trained dogs for hunt who hear guns all day long can sometimes still get scared and run away. If your dog has never been exposed, keep them in a safe place they can’t run away.
-for the video below, we’ve been hearing these crazy loud noises everyday for loud noise exposure and they just sleep through it now❤️
