Keeping Puppies Calm through Thunder/Lightning Storms

High Five Puppy Skills

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.
