A barking dog is normal! Barking is a means of communication for pups and completely standard behaviour under most circumstances. However, it can certainly be a problem if it becomes excessive. No one wants to live next door to a continually barking dog. If your dog is barking unnecessarily, it can be stressful for the whole household and probably your neighbours too.  If your dog just won’t stop barking, it helps to identify, or at least consider what triggers your dog’s behaviour. Has it been going on for a while or has it started recently? Some common triggers are boredom,...

We can’t always take our beloved pooch to a professional dog groomer. However, that doesn’t mean you should give up on your dog’s hygiene. Grooming helps them keep a shiny, healthy coat and allows you to check for parasites, ticks, skin problems and other potential issues. It can also be a lot of fun! All dogs need regular grooming, even if their fur is short. This may include brushing, nail clipping, bathing and hair trimming for pups with longer coats. While you can leave the big jobs to the professionals, it pays to know how to do most of the...

Nothing is certain these days, rules are changing all the time, and we don’t know how things will be in the following week, let alone month. Like humans, your dog is excellent at adapting to a familiar routine, yet they lack the awareness of their owners to understand why things are changing as often as they are. Surely your pets appreciate the extra time you have been spending with them at home, although it can’t last forever. As our lives move back to normal, you and your dog will need to adapt to a new routine.  The best way to...

Does your dog’s behaviour sometimes leave you questioning if something might be wrong? Before you panic, understand that many situations may trigger symptoms of anxiety in your pets. Your dog lives in a human-run world, and there are numerous situations, behaviours and objects that they will never understand.

We know our furry friends well, sensing when they’re hungry,...
