Keeping Puppies Calm through Thunder/Lightning Storms
Thought it would be very appropriate to give some tips re keeping your puppies calm during thunder/lightning storms:
*NEVER say "it is okay"....by saying this, you are only saying that it is NOT okay.
*LOVE the fear, make it exciting, make it a fun event even if it means play acting!!
*IGNORE the fear - no worries.
*DESENSITIZE the sound BEFORE the event by downloading a sound app and starting off at low volume and build up over time. I use "Noise and Sound" which is available on android.
.....and lastly, have the radio on and curtains closed.
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
