Use a blanket, place their favorite toys nearby, include an article of your clothing to comfort them with your scent, and most importantly, provide a natural chew toy for them to gnaw on. Chewing helps reduce stress and promotes relaxation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don&#8217;t isolate your dog in one room<\/strong>; instead, follow their lead. If they decide to go under a bed or hide somewhere, avoid calling them to come out.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If your dog starts to roam around the house seeking refuge<\/strong>, use a dog carrier to make it easier for him to find a place that is similar to a den. Remember to keep it open! Your dog should be able to go in or out of the carrier as they wish.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Close all the windows<\/strong> and try to insulate the house as much as possible from external noises. Try turning on the TV or radio at a low volume and see if that helps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DURING THE FIREWORKS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>If your dog is frightened, comfort him or her!<\/strong> Stay close by, show them that you are with them in this difficult moment, which will strengthen your bond between you. <strong>Don&#8217;t ignore them or leave them alone!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>If your dog barks, don&#8217;t scold or reprimand him or her<\/strong>. Try instead to be a calming force, reassure them, and provide a sense of tranquility.<br \/><strong>Organize small play sessions throughout the evening,<\/strong> not just as a distraction but also as a way of associating the moment with something positive.You can choose to play problem-solving games that engage the mind and allow your pet to focus on the activity, rather than chasing a ball around the house and creating more confusion.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you have guests, take the time to instruct them on how to approach and interact with your dog<\/strong>, especially if there are children involved. You could also consult a dog trainer for advice, but it is essential to do this in advance, rather than waiting until the very last moment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>IF YOUR DOG IS STILL AFRAID<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>If your pet has real trouble<\/strong> during fireworks, <strong>thunderstorms<\/strong>, or similar situations, <strong>it is best to consult your veterinarian<\/strong> to rule out any physical issues. If there are no health problems, giving him or her natural supplements in advance can prove beneficial.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lists of suggestions to comfort your dog during
