Sammi was the rescue dog terrified of everything. Especially thunderstorms. He\u2019d pace, pant, and whimper throughout the thunderboomers. His body language was a mess. After much trial and error, I figured out a way that calmed both of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it started with creating a calming environment for your dog<\/a> in the first place. Not just when the thunderstorms and other loud noises roll in. After all, when people (and pets!) feel nurtured, everyone has good mental health. Good mental health reduces anxiety and boosts immunity.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Did you know that one way to create a nurturing environment for fearful dogs is to have a routine?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Routines set expectations and every new dog in a new home loves a routine. Take Sammi. He had his going out and eating routine. But the thunderstorms were different. They were loud and scary and unpredictable. Fortunately, I found some calming drops that I\u2019d give him at the very first rumble. Then, I\u2019d turn soothing music up loud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While every dog is different, the basics below will help all but the most stressed pooches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 Ways to Make Your Dog Feel Safe at Home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. MAINTAIN A HEALTHY ROUTINE<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Dogs are creatures of habit and love a routine. Daily routines give a sense of stability and set expectations. When you have a regular routine for food, play, and outside time, it helps your anxious dog feel safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. PLENTY OF EXERCISE (MENTAL AND PHYSICAL!)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"dog<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve probably heard the saying, \u201ca tired dog is a good dog?\u201d It\u2019s true. While every dog\u2019s exercise needs vary by age, ability, and breed, what doesn\u2019t vary is they all need daily exercise<\/a>. This means both physical and mental exercise to improve your dog\u2019s behavior and even distract them from your dog\u2019s fear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. GIVE THEM THEIR OWN BED OR CRATE<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"corgi<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Everyone likes having a safe space to call their own. Some dogs appreciate a bed in a corner (maybe even a closet) so they feel like they\u2019re going into their den. A calming dog bed<\/a> designed to lessen anxiety may help. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some dogs like to seek refuge in a crate with a sheet or blanket draped over it. Watch your best friend to see where their favorite safe places are and see if you can add a bed or recreate the feeling in another part of the house.<\/p>\n\n\n
