How to Help Your Dog If He’s Afraid of Thunder

If your dog is afraid of thunder then you most likely have seen him run to hide at the first rumble of thunder. He may have even paced back and forth in front of you, howled, whined, or insisted on sitting on top of you on the sofa. Thunder can cause anxiety, fear and panic in dogs. It’s pretty common. Here are some ways you can help your dog. When there is thunder approaching or it suddenly comes out of nowhere, immediately go to year dog and try to distract him with a game or even belly rubs. Don’t coddle him as this could encourage the anxiety. Try going to a room in the center of the home where the noise isn’t so loud. If your dog works himself into a sweat, trembles, or is extremely panicked then give your pet clinic Pasadena, MD a call for assistance.
