March is the official Pet Anxiety month!
However pets suffer with anxiety all year round. Whether this is due to travelling, meeting new people, going to the vets, fears of loud noises, the hoover, living in a stressful environment...the list goes on!
ADAPTIL has been around for over 20 years helping dogs cope with anxiety but there are still many that are not aware about what can be done and what products can be used. We want to raise awareness all about these issues and highlight that there is something you can do to help your pet.
Whether this be taking them to see a qualified behaviourist or trainer, amend your pets resources to help them with a supporting product. The point is you are not alone and there is something you can be done.
If you need further information and advice, take a look at the ADAPTIL Blog, from how to recognise the signs of anxiety to our top 10 separation anxiety solutions you'll find topics with specific expert tips to help your training and improve your bond with your dog.

Pet Anxiety Awareness Month - Help your dog
Professional help
Helping your dog cope with their anxiety is not always a simple fix. It can be really beneficial to understand further why your dog reacts in a certain way, this is the best way to help your dog in the long term.
We would always advise either visiting the APBC or the ABTC to find a list of regulated professionals to help you on your journey. If you are ever concerned about your dog please also visit your vet, some behavioural issues can be down to a health issue, they will be able to help you eliminate any potential causes.
Also...Do not give up!! You will have good and bad days, the important things is to keep going.
