10 things to do to reduce your dogs behavioral issues.
1.) Make sure you’re feeding them high quality food, for their gut health. Healthy gut = healthy brain!
2.) Make sure they are getting enough rest. Even by using a tether or crate if needed.
3.) Meeting your breeds specific needs through play in a way that they were bred for.
4.) Spending time away from them every day both in another room and by leaving the house.
5.) Slow down on how often you give them affection, and don’t let them be demanding with affection either. Even if that means not always giving it to them when they ask for it.
6.) Not making a big deal when you leave and arrive your house.
7.) Having them work on the place command every day.
8.) Having rules, boundaries, and limitations in your home and actually hold them accountable to them.
9.) Give them a sense of purpose by having them work for their food.
10.) Don’t make all your interactions with them highly stimulating, or overly excited.
