Here is this March 16, 2020 the government announced THE confinement... We all found ourselves at home to protect each other, teleworking for some, stopping for others, over-activity for caregivers. We have just lived through a special, unique moment and we do not yet know if it will be exceptional, behind us or cyclical.
How was the lockdown? How was the return to work and how to deal with separation anxiety in dogs?
Living confined!
#Restezchezsoi has been a difficult, unrealistic time for some French people even who weren't used to staying in their apartment or house. Frequent weekend travelers, road workers etc... all had to drop anchor at the quay, and stay on board overnight! Find new marks in his home, a new rhythm and take care of the 4-legged inhabitant who lives all year round in our space, which is actually his space.
So how did he behave?
Some cats have lost their bearings, no longer knowing where to lie down to be forgotten, to escape our bursts of anxiety, caresses, emotions. Dog owners have multiplied the walks by transforming Bob's daily outing into their authorized outing to breathe and escape the house.
Other very athletic duos had to stop their training and found themselves on forced rest. How to manage the need for exercises of certain breeds and bulimic masters of sport?
Then everyone got more or less used to it, got used to the space again and a routine so dear to our animals settled in. Finally a rhythm! get up, go out, eat and sleep... Despite the rather bad and anxiety-provoking news, time has passed. The children who had returned to school at home (hello anxiety!) have also calmed down or it is the parents who have capitulated!
And then... we were finally told THE déconfinement! we were told the stories of the red and green zones and the hope of being Liberated Delivered appeared! Finally, we brought out Bob further, longer, in short all day, pov Bob Libéré Exhausted!
and the office called...
Here we have to go back to the office it's official ... all day! ... but how are we going to do with Bob? This morning we got up yes together because we sleep in "our bed" now, we went out and we did his trick that he likes and presto before leaving for work we handed his bowl to Bob with the chicken sauce from last night that we had kept for him, I took bag and jacket and hop to the door. "But no, Bob, you stay and keep house!" And that's the drama... he understands, insists, we pull him inside and he makes "eyes" at us, the eyes of the depressed, misunderstood dog , disillusioned abandoned ... and we close the door and we go to work with a lump in our stomachs, thinking back to our lover alone, in the empty house. No more screaming, no more noise, plenty of empty places to lie down to sleep. But Bob doesn't want to sleep anymore! he used to doze off with reassuring noises finally, to follow his Valoche in the kitchen, then in the garden, then in the office (yes Valoche telecommutes!) and there nothing is nothingness! HE IS ALONE ...
And at your place how was the COVID with Candy?
However, there are solutions to fight against separation anxiety in dogs...
Valoche listened carefully to the advice of Dr. Waffinou: "Medicinal plants have a privileged place in the care of animals. Thanks to their active ingredients, they exert a direct biological action on the body, and play a decisive role in supporting metabolic functions and regulatory mechanisms. They have anti-infectious, anti-inflammatory, immune properties, etc."
It's decided, she's starting Bob's treatment tonight! She took the advice of her dear Dr (beautiful as a heart by the way), bought the necklace, the diffuser, the candy dispenser and is still thinking about the webcam...
Then, on the advice of the handsome doctor, we are going to start an anti-stress "well-being" cure with the green tree ELEMENT.
Want to know more about this supplement...
It is noted, I read: "Who is this supplement for":
"Hyperactive dog - unstable young dog during training or work (concentration) - behavioral problems leading to licking wounds - self-mutilation of a limb - eating disorder - sleep - separation anxiety - destructive - post-move anxiety - travel - death - fearful animal - dog/cat excited by the heat of neighboring females."
Well yes Bob is a summary of all this, damn COVID!
"How to give it to your animal" yes because Bob is a gourmet!! don't do it to him!
"The tablets are palatable to the liver, and divisible, so it is easy to give them in the croquettes during the meal for example." It's true Bob loves them and even takes them as treats! he recognizes the noise in the box and stands at attention!!
So FREED DELIVERED we finally live again! Thank you Dr Waffinou (he I keep it for myself) and to you I strongly recommend this relaxation cure to fight against separation anxiety in dogs! VALIDATED by Bob!!
