As a human, you know how difficult it is to deal with stress. It can negatively affect your health, and you’ll suffer from it physically, mentally, and emotionally. Imagine if your dog feels the same anxiety. It’ll be a lot more difficult for them since they cannot clearly express their feelings.

The holidays are fast approaching, and as the rest of the world is excitedly preparing for the happiest time of the year, the season typically isn’t as festive as it feels for pets. Cats and dogs often feel the most stressed during the holiday flurry as it involves loud celebrations, causing our furry friends to scurry away with all the unfamiliar guests during Christmas dinners and the overwhelming noise of fireworks as you greet the new year.

Dogs are generally born with an instinct to hunt or prey. However, it’s stronger in some breeds than in others. Tracking and chasing are in their very psyche. If that’s something you’re noticing in your own dog, don’t panic. In this blog, we’re going to explore just that.

Depending on the dog’s age, breed, and personality, they might completely ignore a cat. Others with a high prey drive will need plenty of training and patience before a match is made. All of that said, it’s important to make the transition as smooth as possible when a new fur sibling is coming.
