3 Ways to Help a Very Stressed Dog Stay Calm - Do It Yourself at Home

Friends, do you know that when a dog has accumulated stress or panic from a stimulus in the house, his body will secrete stress hormones, not unlike when a person is unconscious or panig. When we walk in and hug him tightly or scold him to stand still, sometimes even more to add fire to him. As a slave like us, we can use simple natural therapy methods to adjust behavior and environment to help bring consciousness and comfort the love child back to calm down quickly. Let's see 3 different ways to follow immediately.

1. "Sniffing Game: Turning Panic Energy into Enjoy" (Sniffing Games) 👃 🧠

.

The dog's most powerful instinct is "sniffing." When you start to get jittery, walk around, or shake stress, let us try to distract you by inviting a simple sniffing game, such as using a Snuffle Mat, or taking a small piece of candy to hide in the corner for him to find.

👉 * * Why does this work?: * * In pet behavioral science, sniffing stimulates frontal brain activity and stimulates the body to secrete dopamine and endorphins, which are the hormones of happiness. In addition, the rate of breathing from sniffing can reduce the heart rate, causing the dog to relax stress and calm down miraculously.

2. "Create a Warm Dark Corner Safe Zone: Turn Off the External Stimulus Switch" (Creating a Cozy Dark Den) 🏠 💤

.

When the dog is so stressed that he starts to show isolation, curl up, or try to find a place to hide, what he needs most is not a coddle, but a "safe area" where he can control the situation.

✔️ * * Why does this work?: * * Let a slave try to arrange a private calm corner in a relatively dark and quiet spot of the house, such as in a cage with a door open or under a desk, with a thick blanket to cover the top to mop up the external sound, then put our used clothes with a body odor attached to it. Limiting the vision to a dark and narrow space will make the dog feel safe as it is in a natural cave, and the smell of the owner will stimulate warm, safe, and calm the beating heart.

3. "Soothing Massage Along the Spine: Faint Touch Mind Therapy" (Calming TTouch Massage) 🐾 💆‍♀️

.

When people are stressed, we still want to go to the spa massage to relax, right? The dog is also careful, but the slave must be careful. Do not hit the head or hug the head violently. Use a light method of touching therapy, starting with fondling from the head through the throat and slowly circling the fingers along the long spine to the tail.

👉 * * Why this works: * * * Slowly, faintly massaging (like the TTouch principle) stimulates the Parasympathetic Nervous System, which is responsible for putting the body into rest and repair. Muscles that have been blunt because of fear will gradually decompose and reduce the level of cortisol (stress hormone) in the bloodstream. Mood and may fall asleep in fertilizer to recharge the mind.

⭐ * * Slave Reminder: * * The most important thing to help a stressed dog is the "stillness and calm of the owner" itself. Because the dog is very sensitive to the tide of our anxiety. If we follow, you will be more afraid that there is really serious harm. Let us use these stillness, love, and natural therapy methods to help your love safely through difficult times. 💖
