Get a dog.<\/p>\n
Studies show that pet ownership helps reduce stress, lowers blood pressure and fends off feelings of loneliness and depression.<\/p>\n
While nothing can top the love and companionship of a dog, there are some unpleasant behaviors that just won\u2019t do \u2013 from barking all night to wetting the floor to chewing on your shoes when you\u2019re not looking.<\/p>\n
If your dog is exhibiting this type of behavior, it may be acting out due to boredom, pent-up aggression or because of lack of training. With proper lifestyle adjustments and diligent training, you\u2019ll be on your way to having a happy, well-behaved pet. The following tips will help your furry friend become more obedient:<\/p>\n
* Spay or neuter. The Humane Society of the United States says that this common procedure can help your dog live longer, be healthier and have fewer behavior problems.<\/p>\n
* Help your pet relax. Just like people, dogs can get anxious, agitated and stressed. That\u2019s why some veterinarians suggest giving your dog a calming product, such as Pluto Pet\u2019s Pet Calming Spray, to help relieve hyperactivity.<\/p>\n
Made with natural ingredients, Pet Calming Spray acts quickly to relieve restlessness, fear, nervousness and aggression and helps antsy pets sleep through the night, according to the manufacturer.<\/p>\n
* Have a workout routine. Provide your canine companion with regularly scheduled walks twice a day. This will help your dog avoid boredom, which can lead to destructive behavior.<\/p>\n
* Go to school. According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, enrolling your dog in an obedience class will teach you how to control your dog\u2019s behavior both safely and humanely.<\/p>\n
* Be patient. Though teaching your furry friend to be more obedient may take determination on your part, it\u2019s worth it. After all, as man\u2019s best friend, your dog will appreciate bonding with you during the process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":36,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_breakdance_hide_in_design_set":false,"_breakdance_tags":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-254543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254543","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=254543"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254543\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":254718,"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254543\/revisions\/254718"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=254543"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=254543"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masterswebdesign.com\/cltvet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=254543"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
