This limits the care that the veterinary team can safely provide. In some cases, it may be necessary to sedate an aggressive dog for its exam or tests. There are many things that owners can do to help calm their dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Keeping Your Dog Calm During Veterinary Appointments<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some dogs embrace new adventures. However, not all dogs feel the same, and their anxiety or reactive behavior can start as soon as they arrive at our front door. To help your dog stay calm at their vet visits  we recommend the following tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Socialize Your Dog&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Developing socialization skills is essential for helping dogs overcome anxiety and fear in unfamiliar situations. Dogs that can respond calmly and appropriately to new experiences\u2014whether with people or in new places\u2014tend to be happier and often healthier companions. Supervised playtime with other friendly dogs, meeting new people, and visiting public places with unfamiliar sights and sounds are all effective ways to desensitize dogs to new environments and build their socialization skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pay attention to how your dog is doing. Remember that some dogs will display anxious behavior if they become overly stimulated by an activity. Socialization is a learned skill that often takes time and patience.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Teach Basic Obedience Skills<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Along with socialization, it is important to train your dog on basic obedience skills, such as sit, down, come and stay, to ensure that the dog will respond to you when asked. \u00a0 If you\u2019re not sure how to proceed, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/services\/pet-behavior-training.html\">Behavior Specialist<\/a> will be happy to advise you on the type of training most appropriate for your dog\u2019s needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Calm Your Dog with Exercise <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Exercise can calm dogs by&nbsp;releasing pent-up energy and endorphins, which can reduce stress and anxiety and promote feelings of happiness. Just like with humans, exercise can boost your dog\u2019s mood. Consider taking your dog for an extra-long walk, playing a game of fetch, or letting them play with a neighbor&#8217;s dog. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Using Massage to Calm <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A gentle massage is an effective way to help both people and animals relax. Rather than hugging, holding, or stroking your dog\u2014which can sometimes increase their fear\u2014try giving a calming massage. Start behind the ears and slowly work your way down the spine. Massaging under the chin and chest can also help your dog feel more at ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Calming Treats<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For anxious dogs, consider using pheromone treatments or<a href=\"https:\/\/retrievist.akc.org\/reviews\/best-dog-calming-treats\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> calming treats<\/a>. Pheromones mimic the scent of a nursing mother, which can help soothe even adult dogs. A spray or collar is ideal for bringing along to the vet. Give the calming treats before the appointment and try scheduling your visit during a quieter time to avoid a rushed atmosphere. If your dog continues to struggle with vet visits, consult your veterinarian. There are other options to ensure a thorough examination with minimal stress for your dog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Train Your Dog to Wear a Muzzle<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p> Train your dog to wear a muzzle. A muzzle does not mean that your dog is a bad dog. It just means that your dog sometimes reacts inappropriately. When introduced in a positive way, dogs learn to accept it in the same way they accept a collar and leash. Putting the muzzle on before you arrive for your appointment, the muzzle is not associated with a bad experience. If you need help with muzzle training, a private consultation with our Behavior Specialist can help you get started. Additional muzzle training guidance can be found at <a href=\"https:\/\/muzzleupproject.com\/\">muzzleupproject.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Talk To A Veterinary Behaviorist <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you or the veterinary team are concerned about your dog\u2019s behavior, schedule an appointment with our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/services\/pet-behavior-training.html\">Behavior Specialist <\/a>in advance of your dog\u2019s exam.\u00a0 Coaching on the above techniques and other techniques that help dogs react calmly in anxiety-inducing situations can lead to happier, less stressful visits for your dog and for you.\u00a0 Consider signing your dog up for our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/pdf\/Canine-Academy-Brochure.pdf\"><em>Healthy Helper<\/em><\/a> class, which focuses solely on preparing dogs for calmer visits to the veterinarian. In situations where a dog\u2019s anxiety level cannot be safely managed using training techniques, a discussion with our veterinarian regarding sedation for an exam visit may be needed.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Striving for Happy Visits<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lonetreevet.com\/\">Lone Tree Veterinary Medical Center<\/a>, we\u2019re here to help pets.
