Christmas is a busy time for all of us, whether you’ve got the whole family staying or you’re out and about yourself – either way, the festive period can be stressful for your dog as there is a lot to take in! Help keep them calm during this hectic time by following these simple tips, shared by our raw dog food experts…

Provide a quiet space

However sociable your dog may be, there will come a time when (just like us!) they will want some peace and quiet. Setting aside a cosy corner with some favourite toys and cosy blankets is a great way to offer the respite required, allowing your dog to join in with the fun or take some time to themselves as and when they please.

Keep walks regular

Over Christmas we can all be guilty of letting routines slip, but there’s one thing your dog won’t be happy to let you forget – walk time! Wherever possible, ensure your dog is still walked regularly during the festive period; you could even use it as an excuse for a family adventure.

Use calming supplements

If your dog is particularly nervous, we offer a number of calming supplements which will help to put them at ease. These are particularly helpful for keeping nerves at bay during fireworks! Buy online today.

Offer delicious distractions

It’s when dogs are bored that they tend to get up to mischief! If you know you’re going to be out for a couple of hours, or perhaps you are having a festive movie day and want to keep your four-legged family member entertained, then offering a delicious raw treat is a great solution. From cows’ ears and raw hide to marrow bone or chew toys, we offer a huge selection of treats that will help to channel your dog’s nervous energy and keep them calm and entertained.
