Adopted dogs often come with psychological or behavioural issues and can take up to three months to fully settle into their new home. During this critical adjustment period, it is essential to provide the appropriate environment to help them acclimatise.
𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗣𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀
- 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞: If your dog exhibits concerning behaviours, no matter how minor they may first appear, such as insecurity, fear, aggression, separation anxiety, hyper-arousal, or other unhealthy behaviours, seek professional assistance promptly. Do not rely solely on love and affection to address these issues.
- 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞: Establish consistent rules and boundaries from the outset. Dogs with psychological or behavioural challenges need structure to build a foundation for psychological stability and good behaviour.
- 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐄𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Without clear rules and boundaries, psychological and behavioural issues can escalate, causing greater stress for both the owner and the dog. Delaying intervention allows these behaviours to become more ingrained and difficult to address.
- 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞: Dogs thrive on structure and build confidence more effectively when they understand their rules and boundaries. This structured approach helps insecure dogs settle in more quickly and comfortably, preventing the exacerbation of existing issues.
- 𝐒𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥: Choose a professional who prioritises your dog's well-being over fulfilling emotional needs. A true professional will assess your dog's overall psychological health and its home environment critically, ensuring the right support for a smooth integration into your family. Beware of individuals who prioritize emotional satisfaction over the genuine needs of your dog.
