How to deal with mild stress reactions in dogs?

Normal animals will have stress response, in fact, stress response is not all bad for dogs, when they are stimulated from the outside world, a slight stress response can help them quickly adapt to the surrounding environment, so as to be able to bravely face some things that have not been accepted, this response is not strong, the duration is shorter, rather than stress response. It's more like a kind of pressure.

Manifestations and sources of mild stress reactions in canned food

1. External noise

The canned food is very timid, and we always pay special attention to it when we are at home, and we never frighten it. But ever since he started using the vacuum cleaner, he has become very scared. The noise of the vacuum cleaner is magnified many times more than we hear, so his reaction is always to hide far away and watch the vacuum cleaner all the time. As long as he gets close to it, he will be scared to run around the room. When it encounters construction and decoration when it goes out, it will always be vigilant and ready to escape at any time.

2. Fear of the Unknown

Every year, we take canned food out for a self-driving trip. It is reasonable to say that the more we see, the bolder we should be, but the courage of canned food is getting smaller and smaller. When we drive along the continuous detours of mountain roads, it will always stand trembling in the back seat, not daring to sit down and rest. Going to the fully automatic car wash will make him jump from the back seat to the front seat and hide in my arms. Take him to take a bamboo raft to drift. When he meets a small dam, as long as the raft tilts a little, he will quickly turn his head and try to drill behind me.

3. Inner gap

Canned with a delicate mind, the heart is also very sensitive. This year, a little orange cat came to the house. Every time he fed the cat, he looked at it in a lonely way, occasionally humming and sighing. Once, he ran around the house like crazy. When playing with toys for the cat, it usually rushes over at the first time, picks up the toy and runs away. From the heart, it must feel that it is a toy bought by the shoveling officer, and the cat can't play with it.

From the above, we can see that the stress response of canned food is relatively mild and recovers quickly. Usually, it can slowly return to normal after the event stops. It can also slowly adapt to and regulate the stimulation and stress. But if we can not adapt and adjust, it is likely to produce physical and psychological diseases, so when we encounter similar situations, we still need to take some measures to avoid them as far as possible. In view of the above three behaviors of canned food, canned food Ma Ma summed up the corresponding solutions, try to minimize the stress response, so as not to affect the hearts of children.

How can we avoid and solve it?

1. For noise

Soothe dog before using a noisy appliance, give him some snacks and toys, guide him to another room, divert his attention, and then caress and comfort him. Dogs are smart, and they can understand.

2. Fear of the unknown

Before I decide to take a trip with me, I will try to think comprehensively and think about some solutions and measures in advance. Some things that make it easy to have stress reactions should be avoided as far as possible, such as walking on mountain roads, tightening its seat belt in advance, stopping and resting in the middle of a long journey, letting it get off to urinate slowly, and putting its favorite toys beside it. It is afraid of automatic car washing, so it looks for manual car washing, takes it for a walk outside, and does not let it touch the process of car washing. If you are afraid of taking a bamboo raft, you will not take it to participate in similar projects in the future, or hold it all the way to give it a little more sense of security.

3. Emotional care and attention

If you have a "second child" at home, you should balance your love for your pet. For sensitive dogs or cats, you should give them more care and companionship, so that they can feel your love all the time. Now when feeding, I will let the cans eat first, and then feed the cat. At home, I always buy a cat and a dog to avoid fighting for toys. In fact, dogs and children are the same, play with them more, pay more attention to them, they will be very happy, which will avoid the gap in their hearts leading to the emergence of stress reactions.

Canned Mama's last words.

Since we choose to take care of them, we should treat them attentively and observe their every move as much as possible. Psychology is as important as physiology. Problems early detection be solved early. Don't be afraid of encountering problems. Everything can be solved. Stress may be a small thing, but don't let it become a big problem because of our neglect.
