Because pet owners have to go to work during the day, most pet dogs now have to be at home alone. Without the company of the shoveler, what is the dog's day like? I think more time is to be bored, dazed, and sleep!
However, it is almost impossible for us to go to work and stay with them for a long time. So what can we do to relieve dog boredom during this long period of time when we are not at home?
What will dogs do at home alone?
When the dog watches the owner out, it will stay at the door for a few minutes, thinking that the owner will come back quickly, but over time, the dog will not wait for the movement outside the door, so it will be depressed to do its own thing in advance.
For example, find the pet owner's old clothes and shoes, and then lie on the clothes to sleep for a while; or occasionally play with its toys; if you are hungry, eat a few bites of the owner's dog food . After that, I spent most of my time waiting at the door, waiting for the stars and the moon, waiting for the master to come back.
The following situations occur in the dog, which means that it feels lonely .
1. Find a place to hide yourself;
2. Like chewing and other destructive behaviors, such as destroying the house;
3. Keep pace at home;
4. Barking loudly and screaming at the door.
5. Appetite begins to decline and you become less fond of eating.
If the dog shows the above symptoms, it means that the dog is actually very lonely inside and needs to spend more time with it in his spare time. Here are some tips to relieve dog loneliness. Hope it can help you.
Divide area
When a dog is young, it should divide the area appropriately so that there is a small world that belongs to him at home. Usually, let it play with toys here and eat here. Dogs can also find more security when they are here alone.
In this way, every time you leave, it will return to its own small world and play there freely without having to circle around you all day long, letting the dog know that in addition to the owner, it can also have fun.
Accustomed to separating
If the pet owner spends a lot of time around the dog every day, if something suddenly happens, the dog needs to be alone at home for two or three days. If such a situation occurs, it will be difficult for the dog to adapt for a while. The owner's departure is like the sky falling, and it will feel very anxious and helpless.
If your dog is the same, then you need to increase training in this area. Don’t always let it stick to you. Let the dog be at home alone for 20 minutes, gradually extend the time the dog is at home alone and let it adapt gradually.
Accompaniment more
The most effective way to treat loneliness is of course to accompany. If you have time, before the shoveler goes out, they can take their dogs for a walk. Even if it is only 10 minutes, they are very happy.
