Does this scenario look familiar? Do your pets get rowdy when left alone, leaving you with a messy home upon your return?
We hear stories like this all the time from pet parents in the communities we visit. When pets experience separation anxiety and/or don't get enough exercise, they often release pent-up energy through destructive behaviors, like zoomies, excessive barking, or chewing furniture.
To make leaving and returning home easier for both you and your pets, try these tips:
1. Keep departures and arrivals low-key: Avoid making a big fuss when you leave or return to prevent heightening their anxiety.
2. Offer treats and enrichment activities: Giving them treats helps create a positive association with your departure, while engaging them in puzzles or other enrichment activities each time you leave can redirect their focus and reduce negative behaviors.
3. Establish a routine: Consistent routines can help ease separation anxiety, while regular exercise will burn off excess energy, making your pets more likely to just rest while you're away.
With a little preparation, you can reduce stress for both you and your pets—and come home to a calmer, tidier space! Check out our website www.petfriendlys.ph for life changing products that will help you and your pet improve your quality of life.
