Rest is very important for dogs. After all, dogs sleep 12-16 hours a day, and puppies even more.

From another perspective, if a dog does not rest well, he will be anxious, have poor energy, and even like to bark.

How to make your pet sleep better and rest better?

The following are some natural methods, recommended to everyone

1. Lay out your old T-shirts

Your scent is what your dog is most familiar with and is the primary scent that makes her feel safe. When you place your old T-shirts in your dog's bed, it will make your dog feel more secure, relieve her (separation) anxiety, and increase the bond between her and you.

　2. Fragrant pillow/blanket

Aromatherapy is a great way to help your dog calm down.

Consider getting a pillow or cushion for your dog with lavender or chamomile (essence) added.

Lavender and chamomile are natural ingredients that are effective in helping dogs relax. You can also purchase a dog-safe aromatherapy spray and sprinkle it on their blankets.

3. The ticking clock

Buy a classic, non-electric clock and place it near the doghouse pad. The ticking sound simulates the heartbeat of the dog's mother and helps the dog focus on it, just like counting sheep helps us fall asleep.

In order to better simulate the mother's embrace and gain more comfort, you can also add a heated pad for the dog, which will have a better effect.

4. Play classical music

Playing soothing classical music will give your dog a better resting effect. There are also some soothing music for pets that you can use, which we have shared in previous articles.

5. Plush toys

Dogs are sometimes like children. A stuffed toy, a stuffed toy that is not a choking hazard, placed in their nest mat will help them rest better.

This will make the dog feel like he has a companion, giving him something to cuddle up with. We all love sharing a bed with the one we love. This is the instinct of mammals!

6. Physical exhaustion

If the dog does not consume excessive energy during the day, it will be difficult for them to calm down at night.

Play with your dog, take him for walks, play games such as hiding fooditems to prevent your dog from becoming bored. Article source: Paite Angel public account
