I’m a very friendly canine really, but I do get stressed sometimes! I like my daily routine as I know what is going to happen next but I do sometimes get worried if things change, like people visiting the house that I don’t know, loud scary noises, and even meeting other dogs.
But my human best friend has sorted all of that! I think I told you about my human best friend recently… he’s really nice and has done a lot of things to make me feel less stressed and confident, like when we are out on our walks and I meet other dogs - I didn’t like it when they ran towards me and started chasing! But he taught me that everything was OK and they were just being friendly. Now I like a good run around the field with all the other dogs!
Ever since my best friend brought me to my new home, he taught me how to get used to lots of different situations. I was really scared when he first took me to socialisation training - it was so noisy and all those other dogs kept barking and whining. But he was right, I am now more confident around other dogs and I’ll sniff them back if they sniff me!
I think he has some extra help though…. I spotted him plug something into the wall and it made me feel nice and calm like the special ADAPTIL collar I wear. It makes me feel more confident and relaxed like I did when I was with my canine mummy!
I feel safe!
