Fear of storms is one of the most common behavioral problems in dogs. In an interview with RIAMO about this said Vladimir Golubev, President of the Russian Cynological Federation. He says the first step to helping your pet is to consult a veterinarian to make sure the fear isn’t caused by problems with his hearing aid. If everything is in order, the specialist advises to work on the problem in the field of education.
“You have to understand that the owner plays a big role in this process. The dog is driven by your reaction. There is no need to provoke the panic behavior of the animal: do not hold the dog in your arms, do not stroke it when it tries to escape, or do not hide during a storm, ”explained Golubev.
He added that you should act calmly and confidently, and let the dog hide if he’s looking for cover. At the same time, according to her, naps should not be taken during panic because this way her behavior is encouraged.
