Tips For Dogs Afraid Of Thunder

-

 Today it is undeniable that dogs can feel emotions that until recently we believed were exclusively human, for example, today we can say that dogs also feel jealousy. However, although canine emotions are now supported by multiple studies, any owner can easily observe the emotional world of his pet.

Dogs can also feel fear, and they can feel it in an unmeasured way, to the point of phobia, which has repercussions not only on their psychology but also on their organism, which can have, among other phenomena, an increase in heart rate.

In this article we will give you some tips for dogs afraid of thunder, if this is the case with your pet.



Why are puppies so afraid of thunder?

Some puppies are afraid of cars, others are afraid to go down stairs, on the other hand others suffer from water phobia, but in a general way we can state that practically all puppies are very afraid when they hear thunder.

This is a frightening experience for the animal and although an exact cause of this condition is not known, some hypotheses have been considered:

*Genetic predisposition.

*Having been present when a person or animal was frightened in the face of a thunderstorm.

*Having previously suffered from a bad experience related to a thunderstorm.

The manifestation of this phobia can reach different degrees of severity, sometimes the puppies show only a moderate anxiety, but in the most extreme cases the puppy shakes, gasps, may want to flee and may even jump through a window or get seriously hurt because during a storm these are usually closed.

There is no specific treatment for this type of phobia, but there are many therapeutic resources that can be used effectively.


Get a safe place for your puppy

If your house has a basement, attic or small room you can use this space so that your puppy has a safe place to go to during a storm, but of course he needs to be trained to do this.

During the first few times he gets scared, accompany him to this place until he can associate it with a safety zone in the context of a storm, without needing your intervention.

It is preferable that the windows in this room have the blinds down, although it is also important to include a warm light and a small puppy house with a soft mattress inside.

The crate, when associated with something positive, can be a place where the puppy feels safe. 



Get your puppy to lose his fear of thunder

How can you get a puppy who is afraid of thunder to stop being afraid? With patience, dedication and a song with a background of rain and sounds of thunder. Next we will show you how to perform this technique:

1. Next to your puppy, start the storm music.

2, When it starts to change, stop the playback.

3. Wait for your puppy to calm down.

4. Restart playing the music.

This process should be repeated approximately 5 times, for 4 or 5 days, then let 2 weeks pass and resume the sessions.

In time, you will be able to see how your puppy seems calmer when facing storms, and if you apply the other tips we have shown you, you will be able to see good results more quickly.

 Have you recently had a puppy at home or are thinking of adopting one? Then the first thing you should know is that puppies are separated from their mothers between the first 2 and 3 months of life, when they are weaned and when they start eating on their own. Although sometimes it is customary to separate them earlier, in the wrong way. It is somewhat natural that in the first days of separation, both from its mother and perhaps from its siblings and father, the puppy will be restless, insecure, anxious, etc. This is usually reflected in long nights of crying, moaning, and barking that will not let you rest, because nobody likes to see their puppy like this.

However, it is also true that a puppy may cry at night for a variety of reasons. It is essential to ascertain the cause in order to solve the problem that is making our puppy restless. In addition, it is
