How to Move Your Dog

Moving can be a little traumatic for our pets.  Don’t underestimate the affects of this experience on your dog. Just because you are there along with their toys and bed doesn’t mean they will feel right at home any more than you will.

Let them get acclimated to their new surroundings.  Go outside with them and explore the yard.  Let them walk through the home.  This isn’t to say they should sleep with you if they don’t normally or that the routine should change to somehow compensate for the change in their lives.  It’s more about them feeling secure and to give that process time.

Keep their routine as “normal” as possible.  Soon, your dog will learn that home is where you are!
