1. Separation Anxiety
Signs: Barking, whining, pacing, chewing household items, accidents in the house, and escape behavior.
Why It Happens: Pets with strong emotional bonds to their owners may feel abandoned or fearful when left alone, causing them significant distress. This is especially common in dogs.
What Can Be Done:
Consistent behavior from one visit to the next during the drop off and grooming service offers reassurance and helps pets relax, knowing they're not alone.
Calming activities at home, before you drop off can be soothing. Maintaining regular home and grooming shop routines can redirect their focus and provide comfort.
